Actually it isn't 1,275, more like 1,235ish with vet rewards/passport/bughunter.
You can go to Praetoria via Pocket D, behind the blueside ramp there is a portal leading to Studio 55 (only if you have Going Rogue). If you open your mini-map, enable "lounge" option to see the portal on the minimap.
There are likely a ton of explore badges you are missing, and those will likely get you to 1,100 or higher (There are nearly 400 explore badges in Paragon/Isles/Praetoria combined).

Thanks, Snow Globe. I had a feeling there was a door I was missing somewhere.

Praetorians are up 4 on that, but down about 15 with anniversaries and Gladiators, from what I can tell. 5th Columnist plus the one for their 25 badges earned badge, and the potential 2 each for their level 10, 20 and 30 badges that Primals can get if they switch sides. This is assuming that Passport for NA to EU transfer accounts was an account-wide badge that granted for all transferred characters and for every character made after the transfer. I have no idea about how that works, to be honest. If so, a Praetorian's total possible would be 1215.
Obviously, this doesn't count 1-8 Times The Victor, if you decided to go back and run a Katie TF after getting Ten Times The Victor, and quit after defeating her 8 times, just to have as many badges on you as possible, or Member of the Scorpion Clan and associated Legacy Chain Gladiator, which, last I heard, some people still had on characters from way back before Issue 7.
I honestly want to use the Katie trick to spam the Most Recent tab with all 1-8 Times The Victors once I get everything else there is.
It should only take 7 runs.

The 3 "extra" respec badges are not new. They were possible before, if you met certain specific circumstances.

I agree they should be included on the i20 list like they are.

M-B beat me to it -- this exactly. I realize why Ms. Mesmer might count only 18 "new" badges in the total achievable, because they might already have been counted in the total achievable previously. Sorry for my unclear post. |

I took some time away from the game (about 9 months) with periodic checking in. I was around when Going Rogue went live and played around with it a bit. I was under the impression that one had to start in Praetoria in order to have access to the badges there. Is this the case? Is there any way to get there if you didn't start there?
I see the current maximum badges available for heroes/villains is 1275. I am currently at around 950 with all the easy (exploration, history, some defeats) villain badges after converting to Vigilante. Is it primarily SF badges and the like I am missing?
I know a lot of the badges are shared but just have different names. It's just hard to believe that I am missing 300+ badges from CoV that are unique to that side.
