lemming

A few us are a bit on the old side as it were. I'm still sussing out Rad for armour. I'll let someone else answer that. WP is a great set, paired with Ageless for the Debuff resist. My best pairing is with Street Justice, but anything can work. I have yet to get into TW. Strong set, but it's just not for me. One method I often use is testing builds on Beta since you can get all the enhancements just granted. (And the Mids export works well)

iirc, the Malta on the level 50 Mayhem & Safeguard annoy more people. I know when I was running multiple via Hassel & Pork for the badges, I normally would do the Founder's versions since the mobs were less annoying to me, but you're running at Incarnate capable. The few times I ran with PI teams, they often skipped the bank.

Inf is the least important thing that I tend to log a character to look at. I tend to consolidate most inf in email building up 500m chunks. What I tend to log into to check into, recipes. Special salvage, but those I tend to send over to one of my active characters. Badges and tasks are another one, though those I tend to track using outside tools (mostly spreadsheets)

We could have something like Developer's Choice, or even a Hall of Fame!

Yes, the characters will see different things depending on what they did, but it doesn't matter for WHERE the phasing happens. Have one team member stand in front of Habashy [248.2, 16.1, -475.9], have another member due west at [638.5, 0, -475.9] They'll still be green. Now have them hop the fence [641.2, 0, -475.9] Now they're grey and tp friend becomes invalid target. Interesting, Incan & ATT still work, so maybe we can get Teleport Target to work. Screwing around, if you target a mob on one side of the fence and then go to the other side, they fade from view and deselect. Even more fun, if they run to the side you're not on, they fade out, but if followed, pop up again. (Fade out depends on what side they start on)

That doesn't make a difference to the zoned out areas of Atlas. Everyone on the team could have the same progress, but if say one is sitting in City Hall and the other is in one of the phasing areas, neither can port the others for instance. Mercy has the same thing.

Exactly this. I like Remote Bomb over Time. Honestly, it was what I was looking forward the most this issue.

Not sure, I did install MS Net 4.8 via winetricks

That one takes a bit of practice and I still mess up. Easier with a team where someone able to solo the boss goes to get the hostage to lead them out while everyone else goes to the usual down bodies. Using a targetting macro helps.

You can get them to level 53, I did it for the heck of it on beta. Just not much call for it. Though at 100k and up, that would be profitable I guess. Slot a few training enh in spaces that you don't use and auto jump them to 50 when you get there. Pull them out if you respec or use an unslotter. Geez, typing this out was more trouble than it's worth...

Does the character have to have Macdonald in their name?

Load up BadgeSetList and take a look alphabetically assuming you can do the same with Badger?

Yea, this is one of those long standing bugs that happens often in this mission, but it's not the only one.

Yea, the having to unslot and prep a large number of TOs would be counter productive to trying to be cheap. I think Grouchybeast's idea about Level 10 IOs is the best. You can buy them on the AH for cheaper than a TO and they're slightly better than a same level TO. (~12% vs ~8%)

Gives some players that aren't as built up a chance to recover, etc... I've never found it very long really. Also, you don't have to defeat every single tentacle. The head is immune to damage while there are more than two tentacles left, but if you're down to two, Lusca is vulnerable. But what about my four reward merits? Make sure all teams on the league do a bit of damage to each tentacle before taking out the head and you will get rewards for both tentacles and the head. They count as defeated when the head is.

I could have used this bug! That would make the timing much easier to slap the Rikti Drop Ship for the kill shot

I don't get the last behaviour unless I logout completely. If I just switch characters, the sort order stays the same as GM Tock describes. I wouldn't mind a default option, but it's not a huge deal after 20 years...

My wife will often mention that my train of thought jumps tracks like a ping pong ball...

Those were former vet rewards that became available when all that was put into the START vendor. The PvP summons were in game for everyone else.

Ah. Reread the Isolater Badge info. It does mention that it's a Hero arc. Just happens there is a mirror version for Villains. Yes, if you are red aligned and are in the Ouro mission via being teamed with someone else you can get progress, but not the badge until you switch to a blue alignment. However, I'm not sure if you can do that. The wiki is mainly pointing out if you are Red aligned and defeat 100 via the one that pops up in the RV Train station, you'd still need to switch to a blue alignment for the badge. Fair warning, that's a very tedious way to get the badge, switching to blue and doing the Ouro intro, much faster.

I got the reason Hero was fine with making a deal with the IP, but I was fairly disappointed. I can't remember if I bothered with the lifetime sub or not. I might have decided not after looking at it during the 2009 gencon.

First one, yea, that's a standard mission blinky hunt. An old one at that. Some of the newer Praetorian missions will show all of them, but that's rare. And as Rudra points out, that's the tutorial showing you how to use the ferry. Twinshot has you do a similar one using the train to Kings Row. (which is what the "imitation" zone is more or less based on. HC didn't make either of those btw. If they're listed in Ouro with a arc id greater than 24.X, then it's HC. They do some stuff to older arcs, but there are a lot of them.

I have definitely had more purple recipe drops than monster pet recipes.

That's because it was New York before they lost the marvel license.

Just checked on Beta and that's the cost on all of them. Should be noted the Hami Bud is the only Purple of the list. Also, they don't seem to be part of the random drop from the BL Vendor. (At least in 160 tries)
