The "PVP only" tick box at the character creation screen.
Glacier Peak replied to Palehood's topic in General Discussion
No. Players still need to provide their own enhancements, there's no easy mode for that. Because their own ability to get rewards is so limited (the only available source of rewards is critters in PVP zones) the expectation is that those characters will receive influence and enhancements from other characters that are PVE enabled. -
Good copy, I'll be here when you all finish. Edit: Successful event! Thank you all who joined our first PvP badge hunt week. Plus some extra PvP badges in the process! I'll see folks next week when get defeat those Heroes!

Oh okay, so if I post a screenshot of my time and it's a minute slower than anyone else's, I'm okay. But if I post a screenshot and it's faster than anyone else's time, it's not good enough? How do I record a video on my screen? I want to keep a record of my run. What is the standard?

The "PVP only" tick box at the character creation screen.
Glacier Peak replied to Palehood's topic in General Discussion
Temporal Warrior, Instant Level 50 PvP Characters. At character creation, new Primal characters can tick a box called "Temporal Warrior (PVP only)". This is not available for existing characters or Praetorians. Characters created with this box ticked will spawn on Recluse's Victory and can only access the four PVP zones (Bloody Bay, Siren's Call, Warburg, Recluse's Victory), Pocket D (for access to the various vendors), the Arena and Supergroup Bases. These characters cannot travel to any other zones, enter trials or teleport via LFG, get missions from contacts, or enter mission doors from other players. In return, they start at Level 50 with all Incarnate slots unlocked, Incarnate powers can be crafted at no cost, and Patron Powers don't require the Patron badges. Those characters count as level 1 for the name reservation system, you can't create a PVP character just to lock a name. They still need to provide their own enhancements, there's no easy mode for that. Because their own ability to get rewards is so limited (the only available source of rewards is critters in PVP zones) the expectation is that those characters will receive influence and enhancements from other characters that are PVE enabled. The goal here is to remove the barrier of entry for players that are curious about PVP, but don't want to spend the time leveling up a new character that would be useful under the PVP rules. -
Thanks for everyone signing up for Saturday, June 8th PvP Badges Week 1. I'll see you all in game in tomorrow. We will meet inside the Hero base in Recluse's Victory, I'll be there 15 minutes early to start inviting people. There are plenty of spots remaining if anyone has any friends that want to join us. Otherwise, I think we'll be fine. Folks can also switch out their characters if they desire for specific badges as needed. This will be more relaxed than our LGTF run last week. @Glacier Peak Glacier Peak - Ice/Cold Corruptor @Cece Casualty of War - fire/energy dominator @Bananiac Mr O'Hallows (Fire/Nature Controller) @Burnt Umber Commenticia - Illusion/Forcefields Controller I'll see everyone tomorrow for some PvP Badges!

Revamping the new player experience (blueside)
Glacier Peak replied to Greycat's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I would offer my opinion, but I realize at this point I can't fathom what a new player (someone who has never played this game) even thinks or needs guidance for since I've played it so long. I'll just offer that I support making the game more accessible. -
@Bionic_Flea @Koopak Edit: Missed the TF screenshot, reran see below: 102 seconds - Glacier Peak Ice Blast / Cold Domination Corruptor Division Four: Four-Star Challenge, no temps, and Inspiration Disabled. No Lore summons. I used Geas, Hybrid, and Judgement. I could probably benefit from using Destiny... Build: V3_Corruptor (Ice Blast - Cold Domination) - Glacier Peak.mbd

Patience, I submitted a bug report in 2019 that hasn't been fixed. Is it reported through proper channels? Yes, it is. Do I expect a developer to do something about it? No, maybe? If they're interested enough in it or find a way to address it during their volunteer time. Nothing wrong with following up on the status of a request. I've also been around this community long enough to know things take time.

These questions came from the community here, so that makes sense that the questions would be about Homecoming. And the submission for questions was open for a month, if anyone wanted to ask about other servers. Edit: Well now this post makes sense after reading the poster's previous responses on these forums.

End game 1-4 star content AT/Powerset optimization
Glacier Peak replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
I just did a 1-star LGTF over the weekend on Indomitable (shout out Indom Badge Runs at the link below) and we ran the first mission at +4/8 with a pick up team of 7 and no AT/powerset requirements. It was the first time for the majority of the players and my first time leading it (I've only ever soloed 1-star). Everyone seemed to do fine at that difficulty, but I went ahead and ran it at -1/1 for the rest of the TF because it was a badge(s) run. Surprisingly, the enemies actually changed to lower level and went to 7 player spawn size. If any players are worried about difficulty, hopefully my anecdote gives them confidence to run advanced mode content. It's a lot of fun and there's really cool enemy encounters to enjoy. -
Arachnos Flier (Grandville Giant Monster)
Glacier Peak replied to tidge's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Sounds good! Additional other wanderers: Sally moves, but not far and it's not a GM... The roaming version (1 of 3 spawn types in Croatoa) of Jack in Irons moves after spawning. The roaming version (1 of 3 spawn types in Croatoa) of Eochai moves after spawning. Ghost of Scrapyard roams after spawning in three separate spawn areas. Seed of Hamidon roams after spawning. Kinda of, sort of Lusca, but it's part of the encounter. -
Also this IO gives unsupressed run speed and pairs really well in Infiltration: "Grants a small amount of run speed that will not suppress in combat and can be enhanced." https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=boosts.crafted_thrust_d.crafted_thrust_d
