Best way for fast Prestige, get all of your SG friends to make a new level 1, get them all in the SG, all do missions up to level 15 while in SG move, AND BANG. More prestige than you should ever need

Some very nice designs in here! Must get prestige! (80k is just not enough )

Quick question, how do you place items on top of another? Like a LCD on table?

Also where do you get those nice screens that fit on the walls?

Only some items can be placed on top of each other, ie a stack of books will go on top of a table ok, but i dont think you can put a TV on a table.

Those funky wall screen things, the tech version anyway are called "monitor banks" and you create them from base salvage on a workbench, then add them from the "add personal item" tab next to the edit base button.

However they are useless from a prestige spent/benefit given point of view, they do however look well good in my opinion.

Happy base building

Great thanks Londoner

We are currently 5 people in the SG (all n00bs to the game, played a lot of Guild Wars) and we are quite hooked Currently just trying to make a nice base for us to hang round in (RP) and utilise the medbay / workshop / teleporters. Will create some alts and join them in to get the bonus Prestige. (Need healers anyway )

Yea thats worth a go , you get a bonus for the 1st 15 alts in ya SG/VG and you can always swap them out when you get new players to replace them to save clogging up your SG/VG with dormant chars

Ok so now how do you refine salvage into tech power?

You need to get the 1st (cheapest) workbench then place it in a worshop room, then click it and click the tech power tab and you will then see a list of base salvage recipe's that will form into refined tech power components.

Are you based on defiant or union / hero's or villains?

I'm on Union, does that make a difference?

Hehehe Thanks again Londoner

In the end I had to create a Workshop, place the worktable in there then move it back to my Oversight room and then it worked

Spent a good while playing around with the rooms, not quite happy yet but getting there now

Just one last question, how do you link more than one beacon to a teleporter?

(PS. I'll take some screenies later this afternoon)

Ok if you are using the smallest teleporter room, the 1x2 squares room sadly you can only have 1 beacon attatched if i remember right, what you need is the next size up teleporter room, then you just add the 2nd beacon to the teleporter by placing it near it like you did with the 1st 1.

And yes take some screenis so we can see how you going.

Its very rewarding building bases watching them grow, i think they were a fab addition to the game even if they are still a bit buggy

Even with the bugs I can live with it Spent a few hours in the editor until some of my SG friends said "Stop and kill stuff NOW"

You have to learn to ignore them when you are in the "editing chamber"

Woot got 2 new members! Now I can finally furnish that garishly big Oversight centre

Room dividers would be rather nice to have, playing around with raised and lowered floors. Couldn't believe it took me THAT long to figure out how that worked

On a side note - I can FLY!! Much slower than my co-leaders' Super Jump but at least it will get faster with the levels.

For a reasonably good make do room devider you could try "Lateral Files" under the "Other Furniture" tab.

Ah yes , he might be faster but you can snigger when he has a concentration lapse and Super Jumps into a big mob of baddies by accident

Ok, the West Coast Egos are a small SG (3 people) on Defiant. The SG has been going for about 18months but Prestige comes in slowly as we are all fairly casual players.

I have just revamped the base following Issue9 to add the invention related items and shuffle some of the rooms about. (I still rez facing the wall, why is the Reclaimator not directional?)

Base Overview
Power and Control
Teleport Zone
Hospital and Workshop
Office, Library and TV Room

We still have excess power but the control is completely used up. Once we have the Supercomputer (one day, maybe) we can replace the Office with a 4th TP room to get to 4 more zones.

I'm still working away on mine. I was going to take advantage of double XP to try and raise the other 100k prestige I need to finish the basics, but problems with [censored] in RV and the additional lag have made me reconsider that idea, but pretty soon I should be up and running, with some screenies!

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this ( search isnt yielding the relevant results ) but to preserve the border around the top and bottom of the rooms, I've raised the floor and lowered the ceiling in each doorway. It looks pretty good, if anyone tries it in their base or has an alternative please let me know!

I could of course get blatted on Vodka and convert a years worth of inf... No wait, I did that a few months ago...

yeah, I wasn't a happy bunny the following morning...

I thrifted for about 10 months running on enhancements that dropped in mish's, never bought any etc, then sunk the whole lot into prestige in one night because I wanted a teleporter lol
