If these are just the experience awards, I have no problem with the adjustment. It was obvious during beta that these maps would be farmed, so removing the potential for them to be crazy NPC PL maps makes sense. Any confirmation that it's just experience awards affected, or is it drops as well?

So was the invasion supposed to start today? 4 or 5 zones got invaded on Justice this morning, but nothing has been seen since.

To my knowledge, Zwil had said that the invasion was happening today after the maintenance....no mention of times though.

By the sound of it, it's not just going to be a one day thing. They didn't want to do a server by server thing like the praetorian invasion with the seeds because it was kinda killer on the staff. So I'm guessing they automated the process a bit more and just gave it a set amount of time to run. Like a holiday event.

That's my guess anyway

Hey, here's a thought.....fix the badges formerly known as "vet badges", badges that a lot of us pay for yet dont receive because somebody, somewhere screwed the pooch.

Did they change the Helm of Zeus too?

I got this god awful secondary color now on my front faceplate.
I had the backside red, to match my outfit/mask color, and the front plate silver. I log in, and see this red line on my front plate, with PINK at the forehead section. Also, whoever drew those lines? They are not even on the lines of the front mask, like half on, half off.

Please, give us the option to have that separate!
