Did the Heather ARCH and because I was a villian I let thm both die, then playing with friends to get the time saver badge, everyone else got it bu me. What gives? (petitioned it).

I forgot about the badge until I saw the timer and was running at +2 *AND* had a lot of runners so I failed on the first attempt.|

On the second run, I planned ahead. I cleared the surrounding street so that I'd be able to spot runners more easily. Then I lead Leo up there and superjumped away so I would lose him. That put him right in the middle of the enemy spawns when they appeared. They didn't aggro on each other until I got near him again, but this let me avoid having to lead him while on the clock and got a bit of help from him.

i assumed the same to finish before timer ran out, i figured when the timer expired you would get kicked out of the mish (i finished that mish with 1 min 23 sec on the clock, but it helps when you run lowbie arcs at -1 and using a mm as a main lol)

I had no problems with Leon keeping up with me. And in the 2nd mission, after we save the workers, I ran over to where the last area is, then ditched him there, while I went down to the stores to deal the the 5th Council there.
As soon as the last foe was dead, the timer started (it was 3:00. I think they added 60 seconds to it...). Since Leon was already there, he got a head start on killing The Council Column mobs.

Go figure. I guess I'll have to try to remember that if I run it again with a lower DPS alt.

So it sounds like light-DPS folks are better off leaving Leon in a particular location and then coming back at the end of the mission--any tips?
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Yeah it sounds like you could just slowly move him to that final area on the map where the 3 minute "countdown" takes place and then leave him there to finish the other areas. Once you trip the clock you can run back and have him be there ready to help you.

This sounds painfully complicated. :/

Regarding Heather Townsends arc and rescuing the detective for later badge credit:
Has anybody run it through obo yet? I can't remember if I saved the doofus and want to know if I have to obo the whole thing or just save him and bail on heather.

I -sort- of had to do this last night. On one of my alts I had saved the detective while running the real DA arc but like an idiot I forgot about clicking him in the later Dream Doctor arc to get the badge. |

Luckily all I had to do is re-run the Dream Doctor's arc in Ouro to get to the mission where I had missed him and got the badge. Based on this I would think you could both arcs in Ouro to save him the first time -and- the second time for the badge.

Question on this badge: I've gotten a reportedly confirmed report that the list of heroes required for this badge is different than what's above. The list I've been given is Positron/Valkyrie, Manticore/Aurora Borealis, Snapse/Ms. Liberty, and Back Alley Brawler/Mynx. I've only done the trial once so far, so I didn't really notice which heroes we freed to get the badge, but this is basically a completely different list. It also goes against the "three powers" requirement in this version of the hint text. Do we know, for sure, which heroes/powers are required to earn this badge?

The two lists are complementary. The list you gave are the heroes you want to rescue. The list in the hint text are the ones you DON'T want to rescue.
What the hint text is saying here: "defeat the Sentinel with the following three powers acquired from controlled heroes" is that the Sentinel is receiving power from those heroes and you need to leave those heroes captive. The team doesn't get powers by rescuing heroes; the Sentinel is getting power from them being captive.

Not really. Just make him follow you over there, then use Super Speed/Super Jump/Fly/Teleport/Stealth/etc. to GTFO as fast as you can. He'll be stranded there, and when the timer starts, he'll start attacking.|

I have SJ, SS, Stealth, and a Stealth IO on my main. I left him behind very easily.

Yeah, I was reading it completely backwards. Since I wasn't the leader of the league when I ran it, I didn't know if we somehow were being given those powers, or if the heroes we rescued were using them to defeat the Sentinel.|

Correction for clarity. By saying "right there" people will head to the right and rescue Citadel/Infernal by mistake. I know, I've seen it happen.|

Then to go left of Mot's mouth and free (and defeat) Manticore or Aurora. Go over Mot's mouth to free Synapse or Ms. Liberty. Then south a bit to BAB or Mynx. Once you free those four, the Sentinel will appear and you're on track for this badge.

Sounds good, thanks, Snow Globe!

As an aside... Not freeing Positron is a huge mistake. His attacks are fairly crippling during the final battle.

After mentioning it the other day I actually tried it last night and it worked reasonably well. I just left him sort of in the middle of that "courtyard" area on the west side of that tall building where those timed MOBs show up.|

As soon as the timer started I just hopped back over to him and I noticed that he was starting to attack the guys who had appeared around him. He probably defeated at least a few of the guys on his own and maybe saved me 10-15 seconds worth of fighting so it was better than nothing.

If by ornery you mean "hypnotic voice," then yes.
