So yeah, some Tanks and I took down Deathsurge on our vigilantes and we totally didn't get the badge which makes me =(

Guess it's a known bug.

Wish I'd known that before i attacked him...

It was working in beta, are you sure your group did 10% damage (any damage he took and healed increases the amount needed).

Definitely bugged. I was with a group that took him out and got no badge. We had 7 Vigilantes and 1 Villain. The Villain already had the badge so no idea if it was awarding for Villains.

Someone on the team said, "Let's try again. Not hard to spawn him." So we did. Saw the message, found him in under a minute and, once again, no badges for anyone on the team.

This was last night. I petitioned after it failed to award the second time. Last night, I got an email that it was being escalated. Today, while at work, I got an email that I had been awarded the badge. I logged in and there it was.

It's definitely bugged. A group of us on Justice took him out a bit ago. I spawned the guy, and got the group together (5 of us, scrappers, blasters and one MM who wanted in). I'm not sure if the MM got the badge since I didn't think to ask until later but it definitely didn't give it to any of the rest of us and nobody'd fought Deathsurge but us.

Check if it awards when you fully switch to villains.

It's defenitely bugged for vigilantes. I brought my dominator along on a team with some vigilantes to beat Deathsurge. I got the badge for it, but none of the vigilantes got the badge. (Already filed a bug report about it.)

Btw, Ghost of the Scrapyard badge is awarded to vigilantes. Couldn't test if the Caleb badge was working for vigilantes since we couldn't find him after we got his spawn message.

What you need to do is look high for him he flies around the island and he is hard to see look for his followers lagging behind him that's what we did

Snow: the two tanks and i were the ONLY ones fighting him, so we did 100% damage =)

I sent a petition ticket, and the GM confirmed that an error occured and said he gave me the badge. And checking in-game, it seems i have it =)

Probably accidentally flagged as Villain only. Seems like there are a few badges like that floating around on either side of the fence that are marked for <Faction> only, but shouldn't.

The support team has stopped giving the badge out it seems....defeated Deathsurge with 3 other Vigilantes earlier yesterday...no one got the badge, I sent in a petition and got this:
Quote:
The Development Team is currently working on a resolution for these badge issues. Once the solution is patched to the live servers, then your character will be automatically granted those badges it is eligible for.

Keep in mind that some of these badges will retain a requirement that your character be of a particular alignment.
=(


Guess I'll see if I get the badge later today when I go full villain...

Right now I'm stuck with 6 others in an Ice Mistral SF....2nd to last mission (defeat all mission w/carnies)....and...no last mob to be found

that sucks....at least you're not stuck with Archus.

so I guess that means that "tourists" won't be able to go monster-hunting without going full alignment?

Yeah not sure about the alignment stuff....

Just wish we could get a GM now....we all logged out and reset the mission...did the same mission and same thing, no completion even though no mobs are left

Well at least you got that. I sent a petition in and got an email explaining how you need to do at least a certain amount of damage in order to be awarded the badge.

It'd be more understandable if my petition hadn't said we were the group that spawned Deathsurge and were the sole damage dealing group in its defeat.

Well, at least if I don't get awarded the badge it's going to be easier to find a group to get it again than it is to get Shark Hunter. Still never managed to take down that bugger again once they fixed his badge.

Unless you forced him to spawn, there was a chance that you didn't do 100% of the damage. Just like the Croatoa GMs or even the Kraken if someone did damage and the GM heals that raises the damage needed to get the badge.

Made up numbers:
GM max HP: 1000 group needs: 100 point of damage for the badge.
If GM heals over time for 11,000 hps, then even if the team does 1,000 hit points they will not get the badge.

At any rate it was working in June on beta for vigilantes. So something broke since then. It happens.

Caleb works fine. I got the badge for him and Scrapyard the same day that Surging failed to award.

We know. As I said, my group DID spawn him. Twice. The badge is broken beyond any shadow of a doubt.

I can verify that this happened to me. Took him down as a Vigilante, no badge. Went full villain, got the badge.

So it has been changed to be flagged villain only. This is likely an error that crept in after I tested it on Beta.

Was on a team running Renault SF tonight. Deathsurge spawned right as we entered the mission in Mercy. After we finished, we went to Cap, and took out DS. No badge for us Vigilantes, though we did get Reward Merits.

However, @Jets said he had fought DS earlier, and sent a /petition. The reply he got was that it's a bug, and that it will reward retroactivly once they fix it.
