Exp & Debt Sliders

Two ideas of similar enough nature to go in one post

1. A slider to alter the amount of exp you receive. The max being the normal awards with the ability to reduce it on a percentage scale down to zero.

EG you put the slider to 50% and only receive 50% of your normal exp. This just feels a bit more elegant than full or no exp.

2. A slider to alter the amount of debt you receive. The minimum being the normal amount received with the ability to increase it on a percentage scale up to, say 200% of standard.

This is more for the debt badges and the accolades than anything else in all honesty (or for people who really want to be punished for failure ), or (using both options) for people who want to go through content without using Ouroborous all the time.

Can't quite understand what the problem is with Ouroboros.

Not that I have a real problem with people wanting to make life more difficult for themselves. My masochistic streak doesn't stretch that far, however.

Because I dont think you can do all the arcs through Ouro, Birdy. Most of hte badge ones, yes, but Im not sure you can do some of the more 'standard' arcs through it.

Agreed that for me this is no issue. I like to feel like Im making progress on my alts and such in the hours I get, not having a horrible ammount of exp to mow through all the tme + debt. Still interesting though.

Every ARC (and notice the word ARC) is available through Ouroboros. The only things not available are the filler missions contacts have. You know, the ones they give you before/after an arc.

Are you sure? On heroes that is true but I don't think thats the case for villains. Unlockable contacts dont appear in Ouroboros unless the contact is unlocked and I am pretty certain there are few low level arcs that dont appear. IIRC "Give 'Em Hellion" - an arc from Billy Heck is one of these but I think there are a few more.


Life is one big practical joke that we as the human race have yet to see the punchline to. Once you work that out the rest is easy.

Quite sure. The arc you refer is there in the 1-15 bracket. As for the unlockable ones, as long as you collect the relevant badge that opens the contact*, the arc(s) will be available via Flashback.




* even if you acquire the badge after you've outlevelled the contact.

[/ QUOTE ]I can confirm this after getting the badge to unlock the Slot Machine and the Ghost badge to unlock the Port Oakes Arachnos contact.

Back on the topic, I'd prefer a double debt key I could click to make it harder to gain xp as I'd have more debt to pay off.

I like this too. I remember back when I dreaded debt and actually celebrating when i became debt free.

Now when I get defeated I don't even think about debt because it's never there long enough to worry about.

A debt slider starting at 100% and going to ooh 1000% would be nice please
