  1. Like @Greycat said, the reveal last glowie/spawn feature needs to be fixed first. On most missions/maps, it doesn't even work. Sometimes, it shows the last glowie while there are still multiple spawns left on the map, whereas other times it only shows the last glowie after all spawns have been defeated and all other glowies found. Also, as for the reveal last glowie/spawn feature when it works but you are on a map where you can't seem to find them anyway for whatever reason? You can click the added marker for the last glowie/spawn and the game makes them a way point. Doing that enables easy location of the glowie/spawn even if they are in the Arachnos layer cake room because it shows the marker at the target's/targets' X, Y, and Z coordinates. (And finally, while it would be nice to always know where the NPCs and glowies you need for the mission are, pretty much the whole point of those missions is to find them. So strictly my personal opinion on the matter? Getting help finding the last is okay. Automatically knowing where they all are at the start? Not okay unless instead of collecting glowies, you are placing them like the place bomb missions.)
  2. Unless things have changed, @biostem is correct. It doesn't matter how long your character has been out of combat as long as any member of your team has done anything to flag themselves as being in combat. As far as I am aware, even if there is no actual combat going but the character is using an attack that doesn't need targets to keep Fury up. So while I can see the benefit of a timer while solo, it doesn't really help on a team. Especially during a TF/SF since you can't even attempt the trick @lemming mentioned.
  3. DayJob_XPBoost? Does that turn off Patrol XP?
  4. You probably should have filed this on the Bugs forum.
  5. I agree with your general statement, but it is 7 levels. You can buy and slot up to +3 SOs, and they keep working down to -3, going inert at -4.
  6. I've logged off in my bases after editing them on many occasions, usually because the changes or work took a lot of time and effort so I was too tired to bother leaving the base, and the changes always took. Not that I doubt @Faultline, but logging off in my bases never caused base edit changes to not take. Besides, logging off the character while in a base, even if you immediately log back on the character without exiting the game, exits them from the base.
  7. Correct. I never use SG mode on any of my characters. Would that have restored the Ascension chest piece after I removed it at a tailor though?
  8. The contact is not auto-assigned. (S)he will need to seek out the individual. University contacts for IO crafting: Heroes: Admissions Officer Lenk at the Steel Canyon University. Villains: Dean John Yu at the Cap au Diable University. Praetorians: Relations Expert Verna Arcola at the Imperial City Cultural Direction and Education Center.
  9. DO = Dual Origin Identifiable by the possession of 2 different borders along the top of the enhancement. Can be used by two different origins. SO = Single Origin Identifiable by possessing a single style border along the top of the enhancement. Can only be used by characters of the specific origin the enhancement is for. Edit: Here is something to help you out a little more: https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Enhancements
  10. This is a weird one. I made a new character today... again... and got said character up to 5th level. Then when one of my friends logged on, I asked her for feedback on the new character. At her recommendation, I removed the chest piece my character had for clashing with the rest of the costume. Having made the change and gotten her to review the character again, I logged off the character and alted to the character I have paired with her new MM for us to run around with. That was about 6 hours ago. Just now, I logged back in the game and selected my new character. However, the character now has the original look with the chest piece still attached. I opened the costume window and all available slots are the original costume, which should not be. Now, the character is still only level 5, so I can make the change again for free... but I shouldn't have to make the change again at all. Edit: If it makes a difference, I used the tailor in my base and I logged the character off in my base.
  11. Got ideas for an Overwhelming Control or Overwhelming Support set? * - Names subject to change. The overwhelmingness of the sets varies by person. Consult your doctor if overwhelming persists for 8 or more hours. Use as directed.
  12. Can't the Winter packs be gotten year round too?
  13. Oh God! Please no! I hate when real companies advertise in MMOs. Then everything gets cluttered with their ads.
  14. The "summer set" is technically Overwhelming Force. It just isn't named "Summer".
  15. Aren't the late night ones, my local time at least, in the Abyss on Everlasting? I know the more conveniently timed ones on the weekend are in the Abyss on the weekend and in the Hive on weekdays, but I would swear there are daily ones in the Abyss too. Just really, really late.
  16. Odds are, it will be a change you won't notice and the HC Launcher will be the official launcher. Just with some new tweaks.
  17. Thank @General Idiot. If not for his/her/their explanation, I wouldn't have thought about it.
  18. It looks like you are. Your comment is that Pummel does more damage than Slice, but it doesn't except from Cloaking Device. If you are using Mids, turn off Conditioning/Hidden, and the damage is the same giving Slice the advantage for having a 1 second animation to Pummel's 1.667 second animation.
  19. At this time, while Tequila is forecasted to no longer be supported, it does not have a timeline reported to us players for when that will happen and is still getting support. Per the NCSoft licensee post, the devs are working on a dedicated launcher that will render Tequila obsolete, and that was the purpose of the HC Launcher being developed, though I get the impression a new launcher may be in the works, probably a refined version of the existing HC Launcher, but that was the most recent bit of information I saw.
  20. Are you talking new power sets like Longbow Officer, Carnival Leader, or Arachnos Commander? Or just new skins for existing pets? (The new skins have been asked for multiple times, as well as PPD, Security/Cage Consortium, Crey, and others. As well as full pet visual customizations for players.) (Also, technically, we do have Arachnos pets available. The Crab Spider branch of the Soldiers of Arachnos can get 3 Spiderlings, 2 Arachnobot Disruptors and 1 Arachnobot Blaster or Mu Striker or Blood Widow.)
  21. I don't get it. After reading your post, I logged in and changed my UI scaling as well. Even at 185%, it didn't change the readability of the badge names. (Edit: Well, that isn't technically true. Everything became so over-sized, it was hard to read anything because everything overlapped each other. The brightness of the badge names didn't noticeably dim on my screen though. Were you using the same monitor on those two computers by chance?) Edit again: Ding ding ding ding ding!!!!! It IS the UI scaling. Get off 116%. Go bigger or go smaller. Around 116% for some reason, the badge names dim. The names are dim between 101-145%. (Yes, that needs to be fixed, I agree. Just trying to give a means of dealing with it until then.)
  22. I don't have that problem. The badge names when I do that are the same color, except much, much brighter. If you've tried everything else in the game, it's probably the new laptop. Try another game that may have something similar in the way of displays and see if it is also faded out/dim. If so, check the owner manual or call tech support to see if there is a setting on the laptop to fix it.
  23. Considering the current meta is to out-spam your teammates' nukes and Judgements with your own to fast clear spawns before anything else can happen or be done? I personally don't view that as a valid argument. It is a perfectly solid power as a solo player and it is still perfectly usable when the team runs into something they can't just insta-nuke into oblivion. Would I complain if the recharge on Omega Maneuver was reduced? Not in the slightest. I just don't see a good reason to do so when you add in the 6 pets Crab Spiders can get plus their own attacks and their near Tanker/Brute level caps for resists.
  24. Thanks for the explanation.
  25. Considering Blizzard and Inferno are the two most powerful nukes in the game? No, that is not a good comparison. If you compare Omega Maneuver to the median ability of Defender nukes? Omega Maneuver may have a longer recharge, but it also does more damage, has a taunt that keeps up to 10 targets (in a 10 feet radius) preoccupied with attacking it and not you for 5 seconds, and still has the 9 second Mag 3 stun (with apparently up to a Mag 5 stun against players) after the 5 second taunt for 14 seconds of targets not doing anything to you, at less than half the END cost of Defender or Blaster nukes. It is not in a bad spot. It isn't doing as much damage as a typical Blaster's nuke, but it also really shouldn't be either. And then you need to look at the other powers the Crab Spider gets to use with Omega Maneuvers. Crab Spiders get up to 6 pets before you go incarnate. And Omega Maneuver means those pets have 14 whole seconds to tear into the opposition without them fighting back just like you do. Edit: And here's a reason why you shouldn't compare Omega Maneuver to Psychic Wail. Crab Spiders get 3 armor powers to the Fortunata's 0. (They get the same Tactical Training: and Combat Training: powers other than Vengeance, but Fortunatas get a very weak Hide power in the form of Mask Presence.) Crab Spiders are basically hybrid MM/Tank/Defender characters. Fortunatas are basically evasive Blasters. So the Fortunata's nuke should be more damaging.
