- APP/PPP Proliferation: Archetypes have been given access to the other side's APP/PPPs. For a list of who gets what, see here: http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/APP_Proliferation
A bit disappointing that the EATs didn't get any proliferation. I was hoping to get Body Mastery for my Widow. Still good that the rest of the ATs get more options, though.

Traps (All) - Corrected an error with the animations for Triage Beacon, Poison Trap and Acid Mortar. The result of this is the reported animation time has been increased from 2.17 seconds to 2.77 seconds. The *actual* animation time has been reduced from 2.83 seconds to 2.77 seconds.
I have a question on the wording of this paragraph, or more specifically the statement "The result of this the reported animation time has been increased from 2.17 to 2.77 seconds."
Can someone explain this a bit further to me? I have a Traps character that will be affected by whatever this is. Are animation times going down, or up? Did they get rid of the extra animation time when planting one of these three things?
Before: Traps animation was 2.83 seconds. When you looked up the info on it, it said, incorrectly, 2.17 seconds.
Now: The animation time has been reduced to 2.77 seconds. When you look up the info on it, it says correctly, 2.77 seconds.
Ah, thanks for the help! Kind of a small "buff," don't you think? I was hoping for a little better than that...

2) Tips drop as often as enhancements, they're common. There will be no problem getting Tips. 3) On the character creation screen, you'll get to chose from Hero, Villain, or Praetorian. Chose Praetorian and then make a MM. That MM, from level 1-20 can join the Resistance or Loyalist parties or keep switching back and forth between them. At level 20, you chose whether to go to Paragon and be a Hero or the Rogue Isles and be a Villain regardless of your current Praetorian party affiliation. In summary, if you want a Hero MM you either make a Villain MM in the Rogue Isles and when you turn 20, use the Alignment System to go Rogue then become a Hero. OR, You create a Level 1 MM Praetorian and when you get to level 20, go the Paragon City. See... GUIDE: Alignment System in Plain English [I18 Beta] Snow Globe |
. that helps alot for me

Because the original thread is in the Closed Beta section, and because it's close to 4 months now, with no fix, I'm going to repost the first post of my Zowie fix here. It may end up being needed once GR launches...

After work today, I made a new, temporary icon for the waypoints used in the various outdoor missions in Nova Praetoria. I say temporary, because I'm sure that an upcoming patch will have a better Official™ icon.
Here's a screenshot of the icon in action during Praetor White's Gather Roses mission:
Tell me you can't see that!? (Actually, colorblind people may not be able to... nurts... only just now thought about that...)
Anyway, just download the file PObjective.rar, and extract it. When it asks where to extract it to, point it to your CohBeta folder (generally C:\Program Files\CohBeta\ for 32-bit Windows, or C:\Program Files (x86)\CohBeta\ for 64-bit Windows)*. It should go into the correct forlder.
If you want to double check to make sure, it should be located in the \data\texture_library\GUI\HUD\Map\ directory.
Enjoy!!
* - If the image hasn't been changed come Tuesday, then the proper folder to point to is your City of Heroes folder, generally C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\ for 32-bit Windows, or C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes\ for 64-bit Windows.
Thanks Kheldarn. I updated the link above to point to your post here.
Wow Zombie Man - I think I am voting for you to replace Cole
Since no one has said anything and it's not entirely a spoiler in the story context of things, while we were discussing the Incarnate system, Posi (if I recall correctly) commented that...
<<safe space>>
...you didn't necessarily have to drink from the Well of the Furies to become Incarnated--that it could be obtained through "other means." And by specific example, that Hamidon was an Incarnate.

Added to Missing Patch Notes:
Mission Architect
I'd like to see some clarification on which features are part of I18 and what is in GR specifically. If GR only has side switching and the new powersets I might put off buying it. IIRC those who do not buy GR will still be able to do tip missions but won't be able to switch alignments. Will they be able to earn hero & villain merits?

Since they stem from doing alignment missions unavailable to those who don't have GR, I'd say definitely no.
