As strange as it sounds, I go to DA for my Tracer Badge. I make targeting binds that search for Sorcerers and for the Masks so I can get both of those badges at once. Running back and forth between the SE and SW corners over and over again works out quite well.
Hi mintmiki.
Mateo_06 suggestion is a good one.
Also, if you enter from Skyway and face left, there is a race track around the buildings that works well.

When that badge first came out, I did laps around the warehouse just north of the Skyway get in Talos. Slow, yes, but it got the job done faster than anywhere else I had tried.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
how do you do that bind?
/bind target "tsoo_sorcerer"?

basically, if you see a miki on Triumph, it's probably cute and it's probably me.
Huge thanks to cuppamanga and all the folks in the mac help forum for prolonging my borrowed time on this game.

Personally, I have a more complex system set up, but i wont go into it here. lol
My method was "hit Tab a lot."

[/ QUOTE ] lol well if you put the above targeting bind to Tab.. that would have been easier.. lol
And just to help you out, here is one of my standard binds:
/bind DIVIDE "beginchat /bind tilde targetcustomnext "
When I want to make a new targeting bind, I simply press / on the Numpad, then type what I want to search for. That will let me use the tilde key (`) repeatedly to do the searching quick and easy.
Common searches are for "General" or "Cyst" (on ITF), "Chief?" (on STF), "victim", "citizen", or in the case of this thread, "Sorcerer". Other common badge hunting would include "Spirit", "Elite" (Warrior), "Blue" (Ink Man), "Toxic" (Tarantula), "Tank" (Freakshow). The list goes on.
If you are looking for a named boss or somebody to rescue, it's also very useful. You can even use it to find blinkies in open maps. Yes, even though it doesn't highlight it with a box, you can target a blinkie. Once you see it in your target window, press your Follow key to go right toward it.

Biggest Troll on the forums? I'll give you a hint:

Got the badge and the accolade. Thanks everyone.
That targeting bind saved me a huge amount of time!

Congrats.
To anyone else reading this thread, and on Virtue--I'm all about helping folks enjoy CoX as much as I'm able. I'd be happy to hunt stuff to help you earn a badge.

What a great bind Mateo, thanks for sharing. I know I'll get tons of use out of it.

[/ QUOTE ] NP. Needless to say, you don't have to use the DIVIDE key. You can use any key you want.
The numpad just happens to be where I programmed most of my global binds like that (ones I added to every character). The Fortune power, various global chat channels and silly emotes I also added with my "numpad.txt" bind file, then added them to my default file for new characters as well. lol
My numpad also has binds for "gratz, "ty", /loc, /visscale 4, and for locking/unlocking the powers in the powertray:
/bind SUBTRACT optiontoggle disabledrag
That makes it easy to quickly drag in new/temp powers when you get them, and still keep your tray locked.
I'm working on gettting the tracer badge, but it's taking me forever to hop around talos and steel looking for tsoo sorcerers. Would it be better to try and exemp onto a tsoo mish or keep hunting around the streets? Where can i find more sorcerers?
