Patch notes for build 1850.201007290124.24T2.

COMBINED

Alignment System

  • Fixed a crash whenever a Tourist became leader of a Task Force or Strike Force. Tourists can now accept and lead Task Forces and Strike Forces.

Badges
  • Added information to the Help Menu and a loading screen tip to explain that some badges are only granted to Heroes/Vigilantes or Villains/Rogues.

Tailor
  • For Female characters, the Warrior Bottom piece from the Martial Arts pack is available again.

CITY OF HEROES

Powers

Controllers
  • Ice Mastery/Ice Blast – Corrected IO sets allowed. Now accepts Ranged Damage and Slow Movement.

Tasks
  • Independence Port: Fixed a bug in Sister Psyche’s 'Clamor and Destruction' arc that would sometimes tell players to go to a mission door in Precinct 5 (the Praetorian tutorial zone).
  • Terra Volta: Fixed a bug in the Rikti version of the respec Trial that could cause a crash when the hostages were rescued.

Badges
  • The badge “Surging” is no longer ‘Villain Only’ and can be earned by Rogues in Paragon City. Vigilantes and Heroes who have already defeated Deathsurge will be granted this badge immediately.

CITY OF VILLAINS

Powers

Masterminds
  • Chill Mastery – Fixed a bug which prevented you from taking additional powers in the set if you took Ice Blast as your first power.
  • Heat Mastery/Char - Corrected IO sets allowed. Now accepts Ranged Damage and Holds.

Tasks
  • Morality Missions: The other selves in My Other Selves will no longer hang out with the player after their time is done.

PRAETORIA

Tasks
  • Fixed a bug with all contacts introduced through Calvin Scott and Provost Marchand where players would have to click on the contact twice before they would give out missions. This affects the following contacts:
    • Robert Flores
    • Jessica Flores
    • Aaron Walker
    • Ricochet
    • Hatchet
    • Crow
    • Interrogator Washington
    • Interrogator Kang
    • IVy
    • Deputy Assistant of Info.
    • Mr. G
    • Dr. Hetzfeld

Woot, 1st post after a Red Name!

Seriously though, I like this part. Granted it was only a minor annoyance. But nice to see it fixed.

What's a "tourist"? Someone on a Trial account?

Teams are the number one killer of soloists.

Tourist is the slang term for Rogues and Vigilantes, as they are visitors to the 'other side' of the game.

Friendly, helpful and surprisingly light on the drama.

So, PvPing in "Board Train" missions isn't fixed yet?

I'll have to bug it in-game if I see it again, but I had this happen to a contact in Talos Island as well, or at least something similar. Talk, get blank dialogue screen with only the "Leave" option. Closing then talking again returned it to normal.

Suggestions:
Super Packs Done Right
Influence Sink: IO Level Mod/Recrafting
Random Merit Rolls: Scale cost by Toon Level

It's about time Sister Psyche got a better GPS.

Finally. Hopefully this will help a lot of the poor confused folks in Praetoria.

About time. I've had a costume with Warrior bottom detail saved on one of my toons that I needed to reload back on her, having accidentally replaced the costume months ago.

I have had this happen with Tip and Radio/Paper missions. Hope that is fixed as well.
