Hello,

Do the Praetorians you fight have to be AV class or can they be EB class?

Thanks!

EB still counts.

From the Badge FAQ (still 90% valid):

Do arch-villains (that have a badge linked to them) that due to difficulty or team size get turned into elite bosses count to the badge?
Yes. If you don't want to believe me, Positron speaks on the matter:

Will Elite Boss versions of AVs count towards earning badges like their full-fledged AV versions do?

[/ QUOTE ]Yes (there is no way to do this any differently).

I've got a question about portal jockey as well. Do the AV's required have to be killed in a Tina Macintyre or Maria Jenkins mission or could I make an AE arc with all of them and have the kills count that way?

AE doesn't count for non-ae badges....

you have to have anti-matter from tina's arc and all of the rest from maria's arc. and no you can not kill them in the ae, they won't count.

You can kill them anywhere you want, outside of AE.

Unfortunately, Anti-Matter only shows up in Tina's missions (not just her arc, he appears two other times in her non-arc missions) and the other Praetorians show up in a mix of Tina and Maria missions.

The best method is still to just run the two arcs. That way you get all of them, without having to keep a list. Just make sure you get Black Swan, an optional boss, in the second mission with her shadow monkey things.

And for Anti-Matter, you have to actually defeat him completely. The time when he teleports away at low health doesn't count.

Some advice:

Right down all the needed AVs on your BIO page and delete them as you arrest them. Also Anti-Matter in Tina's Arc is a long series of missions, so give yourself some time on that one.

[/ QUOTE ] Some people have switched over to using the game's notepad. For example, you can do something like this

/playernote Mateo_AV

Then write them all there for your own reference, without having to clutter your BIO page.

Personally.. I just run the arc when it comes time to get the badge. Then I know I'll get them all anyway.

The simplest thing of all is to run the arc in oro with a team. Easy to sell and get a team together (especially now with LOTS of new 50s out there with only AE badges) and everyone gets the merits.

Then there's still the Anti-Matter issue. If you're needing this on Infinity or Freedom, I happen to have a mission with him in it that I save just for such an occasion.
