lemming

Went thru 20 characters and when I'd check to see pregress, it was pretty random which mob I'd need more of by that point. Though once I had four of them done, but still needed four more Hollow Reapers which was my least even progress.

The star is assigned to the global name. You do have the character name attached that was when you assigned a star or did any note editing. Each line in playernotes.txt is formatted "Global Name" "0-5 stars" "Character One Name, Character Two Name, etc..." "My note about this global person"

It's a frustrating bit. Best Leagues get everyone incanned to each banner after they are vulnerable in order to help with that. Outside of leagues, if you have a strong team of eight, you can have pairs at each banner which will get you all the badges.

Whoa! Taylor! And I thought @Spaghetti Bettywas exaggerating.

Movement - 4/5 5 when I'm not lagging, 1 when I am. Leading task forces/raids - For some, I have a 5, some I have 1, but 3 for most. Character builds - 3/5 Most of the builds I put together are fairly solid, but I don't tend to build for max anything. Badging - 5/5 Most badges I can get if I bother. It's getting to the "do I feel like this one?" I only have one that is a badger, but I get the stat accolades barely looking at any guide/tools now. Key binds - 0/5 I have to look up anything to do anything. I'm OK with popmenu construction after reading ATC's examples. In-game knowledge - I can remember the NPC you meet in one mission that is then never referenced again, but can't remember what to get from the grocery without a list in hand. I also remember some stuff that is now different, so that's always tripping me up.

Seriously, I started culling my characters last year. I've managed to dip under 100, but I just added a few and back to 110. (high of 200) I might be able to choose my favorite top 20...

Was a mission on I think Tina's arc and yes, very hard to finish in time. I think it was click on several blinkies, etc... Hated that thing, but they changed it (I think while still live)

I'm trying to remember what happens when you get a dupe global in that. May have to test that

Not that this helps since you've quit @Solarverse, but despite your stridency, your posts have value. Translating tone is a bit difficult since not everyone writes well enough to convey intent, so my way of dealing with it is to try to strip any emotional intent I may put into it that the author may not have meant. With little emoticons, there's always a chance they hit the wrong one, though there do seem to be some people who will disagree with something you said, then hit a bunch of recent posts and serially thumb them. (which seems silly to me) Anyway, take care.

It's a three part badge. You also need to save him in Duncan's mission "Destroy Diabolique", the last mission of her arc. And then he's easy to miss in the Dream Doctor Arc

Looks like it didn't get coded then. It was Number 6 who mentioned that the code was more annoying than expected, but thought it would get fixed for this year.

Yea, that's what I meant by "We have to ask" The system doesn't send that back as default and I don't know how much extra DB call happens to enable that to happen. And a call to local files for your notes section if you want the stars to be shown.

Hmm, tried this with the lead at +4 and one other char who entered while the lead was out of zone. Both level 50s. Dark Astoria Ephram Sha - stuck at +4 Synnapse - stayed at +4 So, didn't happen with that. I have seen it happen, though most people wait for the team lead to be in zone often enough that it's been awhile. I know a patch note said they fixed it, then noted it still happening, so I think they fixed some instances of it. Probably figuring out how to make it happen will be helpful to the devs. There are quite a few more test cases to try out. I suspect different levels could be a factor.

New to Healix, but you are correct, nothing different from last year during the event. Some new stuff to buy with Aether though coming "soon"

Might not be a very clean interface. I do notice that the only time it updates a note with known local names is if you say Edit. And we don't get global name unless we ask for it. If feasible, putting it in the search window might not be bad depending on how many queries that would be for. I suspect the interfaces are not setup for group grabs of the global.

I'd place Water/Ninja Blasters with the moistest crits. 😉

Problem with most of those tests, they're set at +4/x8. At +0/x1 it barely matters. Honestly, the biggest obstacles are some of the EB fights and outside that any AT is fine.

My next soloist will probably be a sentinal though I haven't decided on what sets I'll use. Previous solo characters have been tankers, brutes, scrapper, and stalkers. The mez protection is the main draw and I've done enough praetoria where it's even more important. As others said, pretty much anything can be done at base levels.

The contact levels are correct in the wiki, but the various neighborhood level ranges are not. And the zone has contacts up to level 20, though those mobs will of course only be in mission. Tangent: Hazard Zones; What signifies the classification? I thought it were the zones that were not on the tram lines and normally behind a security gate (or some other step like the Abyss submarine) And Trial zones tend to be similar.

Yep, had similar issues. Had to rotate the base layout which meant moving everything.

What you might want to do afterwards is make a copy of your Homecoming folder and do a fresh install. Then copy over the directories that have info you still want (accounts, architect, costumes, powercust, screenshots, settings for example)

Depends on the league leader if tip teams split off completely, or if they set it up as one of the six. I've done both. As long as someone doesn't just run off to do a tip mission without warning. However, if everyone on a team has the tip, it does go quickly to get all those badges at once since with stealth and some form of TP it's a quick mission. Longest bit is switching alignment, so if I'm doing the PI Motel, I tend to do the redside rumor first and switch to blue before the motel, or after everything else since the tip doesn't go away until used. (Still have a couple characters with the tip from years past) Pretty much all the etiquette rules boil down to "Will this screw with other people getting rewards? If so, don't do that."

I thought it was said explicitly in the RWZ. Oh well. Maybe because of a multibox running thru to a mission or something in the zone, but there should be wording about MSRs. I think the only multibox that made sense in a ToT setting was the few times that there was a lack of 50s and someone would get an anchor for team until it wasn't needed. (Come to think of it last year at least one league leader had the incan return point to the motel by a second. One other thing during the Motel League that I didn't see mentioned: https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Whispered_Rumor If you get this tip, see if the league can set up a team for running these. Every so often, you'd get someone below 50 start the mission causing the whole team to drop level.

Just noticed this: Three of the Glowie sound modification are listed as "Glowie - X" and and we have "Double Loud Glowie" and "Loud Glowie" Would be easier to find if they were all: Glowie - Annoyingly Loud Glowie - Double Loud Glowie - Loud Glowie - Music Box Glowie - Ping (v1)

I think they sanitized it?
