The Done Club

Tonight I received badge #1236.

The only two other badges I could have received but didn't, and is not in my power to get now is Bug Hunter and Passport.

So, I consider myself done.

At least, until I21.


What took me so long is that I gave up the badge hunt with the Ouroboros badges. Didn't feel like grinding that.

And so, when Day Jobs came along... didn't bother with them.

But, then about a year ago, I got the itch to finish 'em. Got the Ouroboros badges. Started working on Day Jobs which didn't finish until 3 days ago. Arranging the Arena badges also took a while. After I finished the Day Jobs, I thought I was done, but then I realized I didn't have the Cathedral of Pain Trial badge. I had forgotten it was rewarding again in the new CoP. And I figured my main had done the new CoP plenty of times... but that was in Beta!

So, it wasn't until tonight that I arranged a CoP and got Power Liberator.

And maybe someday, when Passport becomes available through some other means, I'll be able to catch up with Blazing Tiger, ohms, and Terrahawk.

Until then, I'm done.

Same here. Grats on dinging, at least 'til the next issue.

Congratulations Zombie Man!!!

I've still got Green Stuff and Loves a Challenge to grab to get there. I'll catch up to you as soon as I can.

I didn't have too many problems with the Ouroboros badges, but I can see where that'd be a hang-up. And don't get me started on Day Jobs... (I still say that's the #1 worst addition made to the game. )

Wait for the torture if they decide to put dayjobs in the new zones.....

From everything I have read, I21 seems like it is going to offer a ton of badge stuff (through new trials, new GM zone event..really looking forward to that...new zone in general, hopefully more TF's)

My main (EI) just dinged 1236 too tonight!

He finally got the Loves a Challenge badge (as well as the Master of KIR badge)! 2 great KIR runs back-to-back to get the badges (1st run I was on my mind/emp troller helping out then swapped to my main badger and got it ).

And congrats Zombie_Man, you and I are tied with 1236

Until i21!

To the OP: Gratz!

======

What's a good server with dedicated badgers who run the Keyes badges?

Because Champion doesn't seem to offer such teams. The couple of times I was on a PuG that tried for the Bunker Buster badge, despite clear, precise instructions of what to do, we had idiotic players completely ignore the instructions, foiling the badge attempt. (Yes, I'm still bitter).

Anyways, with the free server transfers coming with I21, I'm open to moving temporarily to a server with dedicated badgers, specifically for the KIR badges.

Any advice is welcome.


Q. Just wondering Posi, where are the new dance emotes we were told would come with GR?
A. Positron: Whoops, my bad.

1387 badges, and counting

Freedom does it pretty regularly. With the new stuff incoming, better do it quick. The underground trial is a whole new set of badges that most will be gunning for.

Yeah, I suppose you already know there are FOUR new day jobs in First Ward. I thought we'd seen the end to day jobs when the first six Praetorian zones had no new jobs available. Now we have to have badgers logged out for three months in FW to get the new ones.

I myself have yet to break 1200, so kudos to all you done clubbers!

In spite of the new dayjob torture (torture to some, me..I don't mind THAT much) the new badges do not look to be all that difficult (at least to me). No new "no deaths" badge, which is nice. I am sure there will be at least one badge that will be a sticky one, but that goes with the territory. My guess will either be the IDF bomb/avatar simultaneous one, or no IDF bomb explosion one.

Looks to be a fun trial.

I'll guess both of those badges will be the 'hard' ones. Possibly the 'kill both war walkers in 8 mins' one too.

The defeat all bombs before they explode badge is 'easy' just like the bunker buster badge is easy....in theory it's easy; in practice, it's hard for people to follow easy instructions


Either way I'm looking forward to another new trial

To my knowledge Triumph hasn't been able to get "Avoids the Green Stuff" or "Loves a Challenge".

As far as I know, I'm the only one willing to even organize Keyes Badge runs. We are two months after Keyes was introduced to the live servers. How much longer do the developers need to be shown that something needs to be changed?

And the attitude of "better be quick or you'll never get X badges" is completely repugnant.

I feel your pain, Snow Globe. Likewise, to my knowledge, the KIR badges have been gotten by few, if any people, on Champion. In fact, Keyes runs are rarely done. BAF and Lambda, they're run all day long. Keyes, I can't recall the last time I saw one put together for even just a regular run, let alone a badge run.

I may have to move my main/badger to Freedom to have a shot at the KIR badges.

There are a few that have been running some badge runs on the Liberty server. Not every night but...at least maybe 1-2 times a week...depends if enough want to do it.

Also, I mentioned it before, that maybe you may want to wait until i21/freedom launches. Possibly get the badges by transferring the toon to the new VIP server and team up that way. No it shouldn't have to be done Snow Globe but it is an option.


I guess Freedom works too if they're doing a run every night *shrugs*

I did some (fun?) browsing through the leaderboards on CIT to see what I could find about these badges. As of today, 80 people have Loves A Challenge and 73 have Avoids the Green Stuff. I'm sure that total is actually higher, but those are only the ones verified on CIT.

Here are the rankings by server for those two badges with everyone who has has at least 1,000 badges overall:

Code:
           Challenge  Green
Virtue         15       15
Union          13       10
Freedom         5        6
Liberty         4        7
Champion        4        2
Infinity        4        2
Victory         3        3
Guardian        3        2
Protector       2        3
Defiant         1        1
Justice        --       --
Pinnacle       --       --
Triumph        --       --
Vigilance      --       --
Zukunft        --       --
Granted, these numbers don't add up to the overall total (because not everyone has over 1,000 badges), and you can't have just one person with the badge (but the rest of the league isn't tracked on CIT). But I think this does indicate that something's going on. Either the badges are just that much harder, or certain server communities are stuck running BAF and Lambda all the time and don't want to try anything new. The trial itself isn't that bad once you get used to it. Certainly less annoying than Lambda's badges after the "fix."

im one of the ones on victory who have it and i have to say that keyes is run very rarely because there is a lot of hate towards the trial in general

i personally hate keyes to no end either, but to get the badges i had to experience it at some point but as soon as i got the MO badge i have not run keyes since (prolly been about 1-2 months since ive run a keyes), i may make exceptions for toons with fast charging self heals, but i absolutely refuse to run the trial on a toon with no self heals

With this upcoming Issue 21 change:
  • Keyes Island will now award 2 Empyrean Merits on completion, rather than 1. Additionally, it will award 2 Astral Merits on completion during the Empyrean cooldown period.
It'll be interesting to see if people become more motivated to run that trial. Sure it's a little cheesy that the Devs are having to "entice" us that way but it might work regardless. *shrugs*

I'm on Infinity and I have Green Stuff but not Challenge. I'm not on CIT at all, just Badge-Hunter.
