Hi,

I'm on holiday, and won't be able to log in for the Praetorian invasion to get the Defender of Primal Earth badge as per the announcements windows for it. Am I out of luck? Will this badge be gainable somehow in months to come?

This isn't the first time it's been made available, so I would assume it will be again.

I missed it the first time it was offered a few months ago myself. I was on ship at sea with limited/restricted Internet access so I had zero chance to get it at the time.

But as soon as Issue 21 went live last week I got it on all my characters. It appears that they decided to turn the badge on for the entire Freedom Headstart period, not just during the scheduled invasion events on each server.

But like Eric Nelson said if you can't get it this time around they'll probably give us another opportunity. Back in May the Devs more or less implied that this was going to become a repeating event and that we would periodically get new chances at it.
