    Canonical now is in a gray area of time in which bits and pieces of convenient modern technology like drones and social media exist, but the year will probably never be cleanly defined. We'd much rather choose the haves and have-nots of the modern world's amenities and vices within Paragon City than to chain ourselves to a time and therefore the things that concretely should be available.

     

    TL;DR It's a fugue state of existence between 2012 and 2025.

    Yeah this - and the fictional world has time travel. It can be whatever year the writers want it to be.

     

    For example, the plaque in Kings Row needed for the Bicentennial history badge says it was placed in 2023.

     

    "This plaque was placed in 2023, alongside a number of others, to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of the city. "

    I didn't know that editing was open to anyone.  How would I do that?

    First, create an account by clicking the 'Create Account' link in the top right corner of the home page.

    Once you create an account, switch from the Default Mode (Light Mode) to Dark Mode to confirm you aren't crazy. Then you will see your logged in name and other items which you can review.

    Then, if you are not familiar with updating or editing a wiki page, I recommend reviewing the user Help guide:  https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Help:Contents

     

    Once you feel confident in your abilities, go to a page and make the edit deemed necessary. If you screw something up during editing, just hit cancel and the page reverts back to the previous version. There are some pages that see a lot of edits and others that haven't changed in a decade. Always ask for help if you don't understand how to do something or want to know how to make it easier to do something.

     

    Good luck!

    In fairness I tell Michiyo if I see something and ask her to do the edit as I'm utterly useless at this kind of thing. I've had to edit the GM wiki a couple of times and it's always rough 🙂

    You could do the Mayhem/Safeguard exploration badges.  The Mayhem one is needed for the villain side accolade.

    I've got the Task Commander badge very recently, and that was with only doing the Sister Psyche TF and not Yin's. So is this a bug that afffects getting the badge?

    It's either/or. Either Sister Psyche's Task Force or Penelope Yin's Task Force will count towards Task Force Commander.

    Neat!  I honestly missed the Mark & Recall power because it's behind Labyrinth content that I ignore

    The Labyrinth of the Fog zone is not connected in any way to the Mark and Recall accolade power. A player can get Mark and Recall and never step foot in the Labyrinth zone.

  7. Thanks for finding this. It's great that you caught the error. It would be even better if you could contribute to the article by making that recommended edit. It's all volunteer work and it's only as good as the effort we all put in it collectively.

  8. Kongol was Earth-based, so I'd recommend Stone Armor as your primary powerset. He also had a Great Axe, so I'd recommend Titan Weapons as your secondary powerset.

     

    As for Dragoon transformation, pick a different costume slot and make an armor that works. I had a Haschel homage character and accompanying costumes uploaded to the forums, but I ran out of file storage so I had to delete them, otherwise I'd show you what I mean.

    I like it! I've got a character with the Villain contact who let's you pick any Mayhem and the same goes for the Hero npc.

    Sorry if this isn't the right place but hello!!

     

    Completely new, didn't even install the game yet but would like help regarding the servers. Are the created characters bind to a server, or can we jump in between (like GW1)?

    If bound, what server do you advise for an European player? I play mostly at night.

     

    Remember playing this soooo many years ago for a couple months and having a blast. Can't wait to retry.

    Hi, welcome to the community. You can transfer characters between shards. I think there's a 10 transfer limit per week though. 

  11. Tide Pool won't work very well or at all in some cases when used with target location commands. I find even manually placing it will occasionally not work if I'm in the air or jumping, or if the target is above the ground, or if the target hit box is below the surface of the geometry, or randomly with no explanation.

     

    Though not specifically mentioned, the range boost from Power of the Depths decays over its buff period. 

     

    Edit: Range boost does not decay.

  12. Welcome back Indom badgers! Here are our badge runs for the month of February!

    2. No Incarnate Trial or "Master of" content will be ran for these events (this is in order to ensure a reasonable time constraint for all participants)

    Saturday, February 1st - Conquering the Labyrinth: This run will consist of collecting all of the badges for the Labyrinth of the Fog raid zone. No special Archetype or builds are required for this run, bring whomever you would like the badge on! Defeats will be likely and we will be going at a leisurely pace, so expect it to take a little over 1 hour. We will meet in the Labyrinth of the Fog zone (via the Midnighter Club) and I'll be there 15 minutes early to start inviting people. We will also be visiting all eight secret rooms across the zone for fun! Note: Due to time, we will NOT be running the Font of Malevolence high score event.

    I do not think the /vis_scale 20 is working, is my syntax right?

    If you're typing it in the game chat, use "/vis_scale 20" This will only last as long as you are logged in to your account. Once you log out, it reverts to the default setting from your graphics settings in the settings tab. 

     

    If you're adding it as a command line parameter to the Homecoming Launcher, type "-vis_scale 20" in the command line and it will always launch the game with the highest world detail and not require you to type the command in the game chat every time you log in.
