Day Job bug?

I am at 73.8% on the PvP zone day job badge. My issue is that I have logged out in Recluses Victory every night for the past week and I am still at 73.8%. Is there any known bug with dayjob badges? Am I correct in thinking I can log out anywhwere in a PvP zone to gain progress on this badge?

Zone out, and then look. Also, make sure that when you log out you are seeing the correct Day Job icon. If not, move a bit to make sure it shows up before you log.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Where exactly does the icon show up for the dayjob log out points? I know there is suppose to be one, but I've never actually noticed it.

In you buff icon bar under your health and endurance bars.

Ahhh...thanks. I'll make sure I see the icon before logging out from now on. Hope that fixes my problem.

Are the DayJob badges/powers just buggy overall? I finally got the Predator dayjob badge, then logged out over night in a PvP zone to charge it. I checked it this morning after charging overnight for about 12 hours, and it the icon showed up and gave me the 10% recharge bonus for about 3 minutes.....then nothing.

Does 12 hours charge = 3 minutes? Tell me this is buggy behavior.

Most rewards take 10 days of offline time to accumulate the maximum benefit duration, which is usually 2 hours.
Seems to me you should have gotten 6 minutes, unless that particular power has a maximum of only 1 hour, in which case 3 minutes is correct.

Yeah, some of the dayjobs are kinda cheesy. How about getting extra vanguard merits, enhancements, prestige, xp, inf or salvage at the end of every mission, but only for the first 6 minutes you are online? I hope you can ghost for that single bonus, and/or can form a team very quickly. lol

That blows. So basicly the badge and accolade bonuses are completely useless to characters you play consistantly. I knew there was a reason I didn't bother getting these badges till now.

To bad you can't selct a "main" character that would get the bonuses in half the time or something. I can see how they are mildy useful to people with lots and lots of alts, but for a guy like me that has 2-3 characters that I play just about every day...it seems like a pretty useless addition to the game.

You could see day job badges as a form of 'enforced' altitis...

If you play every day, for maximum benefit from day job badges and patrol XP, you'd want to cycle through 10 characters over 10 days...
