It's simple, upon creation of a primal, or choosing a side with a praetorian, you gain the badge. Switch sides, lose badge. You're effectively just trading it for the greener/meaner badge anyway.

How about "Void Where Prohibited" for Heroes/Vigilantes, and "Null and Void" for Villains/Rogues. (Khelds can switch factions too, right?)

I enjoy achievements unlocked by some tasks that aren't necessarily connected to character earnings, be it influence, Prestige or combat oriented. Some that comes to mind:

Geyser Blazer: You've jumped the Shadow Shard geysers 100 times and you still feel a flushing sensation.
Emotional: You've used emotes 1000 times - people wish you would keep all that stuff bottled up.
Absent-minded: You've been flagged as AFK for 60 minutes.
Holy Diver: You've spent 10 minutes falling from great heights, yet miraculously survived!
Prune: You've spent 30 minutes swimming, it's time to get out of the pool.
Gently down the stream: You've taken the ferry 50 times. After getting familiar with the ferry's captain Sharon, you always bring a couple of coins - just in case.
Chopper hopper: You've hitched a ride on the Black Helicopter Line 50 times - mostly hanging from the landing gear.
Glam Tram: After 50 rides on the tram you've gotten a V.I.P.-card. Not there are any V.I.P.-seats...
Muckraker: After reading 100 player biographies, you've found some dirt on almost everyone you've met.
Pill popper: You have become slightly addicted to inspirations after using 500 of the tasty little suckers.

I'd also like to see badges for using powers from primaries/secondaries where the tier would be number of points counted toward the badge. Some obvious other badges are defeat badges for Rularuu and perhaps a Monster Masher badge for fighting a certain number of giant monsters.

I hunt down those blasted sharpshooters like they're the greatest threat to Paragon. I've often wondered why every faction didn't have a defeat 100 badge.

Just call this badge "AE Baby" and force it to be an unchangeable /settitle selection so we can see their shame from a mile away.

There should be a badge for actually trying to ride one of the hundreds of sail boats sailing around.

"Wannabe Sailor"

Despite your best efforts, you just can't seem to get a grip on the art of sailing.

I think it would be funny if there was a badge for reaching the max height of any outdoors map.

"Believes (s)he can fly"

Description:Well, if you didn't know whether or not you could fly by now, you're about to find out.

You actually can ride them now.

Rumour had it a while back there was an Accolade called Chronomaster, for getting ALL the Ouro badges, Entrusted with the Secret, plus doing all the Menders' TFs. If the only thing it did was unlock the Menders' costume pieces, I would be on that like white on rice.

And the badge would be "Hey Man Nice Shot - you've taken out enough snipers that they'd rather jump off the building than face you."

That one should be called "The Pauli Effect - Um, that looked expensive. You hope it wasn't too important."

Others to consider:

250 Rikti Communications Officers - "We Interrupt This Transmission"
100 Malta Sappers - "Running on Empty"
100 Storm Elementals - "Rider of the Storm"
150 Rikti Pylons - "Shieldbreaker"

Huh. I could swear I've jumped onto boats I couldn't jump onto before. The one south of the Cap North ferry comes to mind.

There are a couple boats in that location. Both of them are stationary objects (like a buoy), so they don't count. We're referring to the ones that are actually traveling in the water.

There should be an "I wear makeup" badge for mistyping rouge 50 times.

I definitely agree on a "100 defeats" badge for each villian group, including ones that already have badges for specific enemies like Rikti, Hellions, and Freakshow.

Some name ideas:
Hellions - Extinguisher
Freakshow - 1337
Circle of Thorns - Thorn in the Side
Shadow Shard Reflections - Mirror Mirror
Carnies - Ringmaster / Ringmistress
Family - Refused the Offer (Hero) / Couldn't Refuse (Villain)
Hydra - Up On the Hydra's Back
Knives of Artemis - Knife to the Heart
Legacy Chain - Weak Link
Nemesis - The Plot Thickens (Hero) / Nemesis Plot (Villain)
Tsoo - Boy Named Tsoo / Girl Named Tsoo
Void Hunters - Null and Void or Void Where Prohibited
--------

Now that there are Exploration badges for visiting multiple locations, I think more of these should be added. Like:

Gyroic - Visit one "City of Gyros" store
Super Gyro - Visit five "City of Gyros" stores
A Hero's Gyro - Visit all the "City of Gyros" stores
Railroaded - Visit all stops on the Paragon City Monorail
Get to the Choppa - Visit all stops on the Black Helecopter line

There should be badges for defeating Malta Gun Drones and Sky Raider Force Field Generators. I hate those things, and it would be nice to at least get something for beating on so many of them.


Proud member of Everyday Heroes (Infinity Heroes), Dream Stalkers (Infinity Villains), Devil Never Cry (Freedom Heroes), Enclave of EVIL (Pinnacle Villains), Phobia (Infinity Villains), Les Enfant Terribles (Freedom Villains), Gravy Train (Virtue Heroes), and more!

Full, detailed character list

It may not be a defeat badge, but there is already a Raider Engineer Gladiator badge for defeating 100 Force Field Generators.
