It was well worth it.

Maybe they should give us a badge for killing Bothans

Maybe it's me, and I am sure to get flamed for it. But I disagree with Exploration Badges giving XP.

If people want them, they will get them, that should be the incentive, not the XP. If they want to unlock contacts thats fine, thats content related, but no XP for explorations please?

Especially not a level dependant thing. Stalkers (likely) can make bank on this and take advantage of it easier than most.

[/ QUOTE ]I can safely put your fears to rest:
Breakout-Jail Bird, 0 XP

5 points XP for the following at level 2
Mercy-Cesspool
Cad-Egghead
Port Oakes-Driller
Sharkhead-Pit Viper
Nerva-Watcher on the Knoll
St. Martial-Stonekeeper
Grandville-Guttersnipe
There are, what, under 40 non-level restricted explore badges? 40*5 xp might get you 1 level. Or, spend the time doing missions or street hunting.

Seriously, some are just out of reach before a travel power, baring a holiday jetpack.

From the "Now testing" notes:

[ QUOTE ]
• Demonslayer badge is now given for both CoH and CoV versions of Baphomet.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, it's not. Ran the Villain mission solo, defeated Baphomet, no badge. It's worth noting that the Heralds (and then the big demon himself) started spawning after stopping only 4 or so of the 9 rituals.

[/ QUOTE ]

the version of baphomet (or any other monster for that matter) in a mission does not award a badge. it may have when CoH first came out, but it hasn't been the case for quite a long time, if ever.

I know for a fact I got mine in a mission CoH side. I was also unaware that Baphomet spawned anywhere else except inside a mission.

You are correct, Baphomet only spawns in missions, 2 in CoH and 1 in CoV. Also, Baphomet is an Arch-Villain, not a Monster. (Which, when pointed out to him, was what made Positron change the CoV version so that it awards Demonslayer as well. Well, is supposed to, anyway. (And you can apparently petition to get Demonslayer for your villain, if you have defeated Baphomet. On the live servers.))

Description: The spirit of a demon resides within you. Bringing to the surface of your mind can make you highly resistant to all types of damage for a short time. You mustn't let the demon inside you out for too long, however, or it just may cost you your mortal soul.



As for finding out what else is needed for this accolade, the only other exploration badge I have from Grandville is Guttersnipe. I have all other Exploration Badges, and the History Badges (we haven't found a new History Badge from any plaques in Grandville, have we?) And I haven't been to RV yet. I have all the SF badges, too.

Ewok, check my updates on the Vidiot maps sight, we have all 4 explores for Grand and another 4 for RV and so far 2 for mayhem.

Question, Should the pillbox and heavies badges be under accomplishments or under achievements, as all other badges that have associated progress bars are in achievements ...

I'm not sure whether the badges for defeating the AVs/Hs in RV should remain in Accomplishments, probably so, as that is an accomplishment for your hero/villain, where as the pillbox/heavies badges are given by achieving a goal ...

Also, from what I have seen, contaminated appear regardless of which faction is winning in RV ... thats just waht I have seen, maybe he was a remnant of a previous hero win ...

A question about pillboxes and heavies: Are progress towards these badges made for everyone on the team when a member captures one, or are these on an individual basis only?

Yeah, I just wanted to throw out some of the info we've compiled onto here. Once the weekend comes I'll update the list here.

Has anyone confirmed if heroes can earn the RV badges for beating Statesman and the Freedom Phalanx when confused?

Hopefully not since that would have heroes actively working against other heroes there.

Posted

was thinking the same thing. i would hate to have to work to get an entire team confused just to have to kill an AV to get a badge


 

Posted

It would say it would be possible ... the problem with that is the regeneration rate of the AVs/Hs in RV, the fact that you need 15-20 people plus heavies beating on them, all those heroes need to be confused constantly, and when confused your targetting reticle changes every power press (unless your target is the only 1 on the screen) ... that is ALOT of work just for 1 badge ... more work than any other badge a hero can get via confusion ... I am sure that someone is gonna try it, but to be honest, it won't happen any time soon ...


CHAMPION!

Thank you for posting this! It's very helpful.

Also, is vidiotmaps.com up and running again?

There is a SG beacon badge for Grandville, our temp SG got it yesterday.


 

Posted

Can anyone out there recommend a updated web-site for badge information?

It appears the 'badge' section on Vidiotmaps is no longer available, and Vidiotmaps in and of itself seems to be in a stage of transition as the original owner recently announced he would be unabel to keep updating it


 

Posted

Demon Slayer is not awarding retroactively for villains, either.

Their list of badges might be up-to-date, but I just looked at the site. They have quality control issues. They list the Air Pirate badge as the Black Scorpion description: this was a bug, and most people who have the badge know it. They don't have a lot of the ways to get badges, etc...

All in all, I'd say this is -not- a good place for badge information.
