No. But I thought about it once.

Portals? We don’t need no stinking Portals. It may take me Three Months, but I can fly to the Moon.

@Andramada Don’t compare Adamastor to anything else in game. It’s a unique thing. Regarding the Woodsman Trial, rarely does it last more than 10 minutes. It’s one of my favorite Trials in game for legacy reasons as well as time investment. I’d say about one in 20 runs ends with a team wipe. Sometimes the team build doesn’t even allow for completion. If you aren’t able to complete the Trial quickly try another toon or even another team.

You do realize that Enhancement Converters drop on grey level NPCs? You don’t get an easier farm outside of AE then that.

Thank you for your opinion.

The writers strike won’t have any effect on continuing stories will it? /jk

@Luminara Thank you for the picture. I was referencing the patch notes. As you probably know the patch notes do not mention the "Experienced" 5 charges. I feel like I may have not phrased my thoughts properly. The Patroller Day Job Patroller XP and the Anniversary Badge Experienced power do the same thing, they give Patrol XP. My guess is that they just took the code from the Patroller Day Job and tweaked it to the Anniversary Badge Experienced power. And yes, They both award Patrol XP. If a toon is lvl 50 or higher they stop interacting with Patrol XP unless they have debt when they log out. Assuming this rule for the Day Job Patroller works the same as the Experienced power this would explain why a toon would not receive it if they are over lvl 50. Further, if a toon lower than lvl 50 already has 10 charges of Patrol XP from the Patroller Badge, before the Anniversary Badge was awarded, they would not receive an additional 5 charges from the of the Experienced power. This is because the maximum number of charges of Patrol XP a toon can have is 10 charges. All of this assumes that the Experienced power operates under the same rules as the Day Job Patroller power. I'm just offering a possible reason why the OP is not receiving the 5 charges of Experienced.

I would love a Villain that had a constant rain cloud over his head.

@twozerofoxtrot It may have operated like that previously but it doesn’t say it is that way this year. No mention of it in the patch notes. I noticed you didn’t find a link either.

@Luminara Can you point to where it says you get recharge of Patrol XP with the 19th Anniversary Badge? I don’t find it in a search. If you are supposed to get the recharge maybe the problem is that’s it operating under the Day Job criteria and the 19th Anniversary Badge rules. Uber’s link only says what I had previously posted. The 5 Charges as opposed to 10 is contrary to what the wiki says. https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Patrol_Experience The wiki also says it’s no longer awarded to toons after they hit lvl 50.

I ignored the pop up anniversary Badge because it doesn’t matter if you ultimately get the badge. The pop up when initially logging on, while exciting is not as important as actually receiving the badge. FYI: That’s a bug that goes back to the secret server days. I attribute it to the Devs not having all the tools they needed to implement some things properly. The 5 (actually 10 when logged out long enough) Charges of Patrol XP are given for the Patroller Day Job Badge. You only get that Badge by logging out almost anywhere other than a location designated as a Day Job. If you log out at say, the Tram, you will not receive this Patrol XP. Instead you will receive +Speed Boost.

Grats on your new level. Hope to see you in game.

If you are logging out in a Day Job location you will not get the Patrol XP recharge. You will only get the reward for that Day Job location. You must log out in an area that is not designated as a Day Job.

This has come up before. Look through some old posts. I’m sure you will find a fix.

I’m pretty sure there is a thread for costume part request.

At most it looks like it’s broken, at the least it may have been changed at some point and the stats not updated.

Worked for me. If you are just looking for the WST do it in game. Pull up the LFG Tab. Then open the Task Force tab. Scroll down, anything with a Purple Highlight is the WST.

I hear you. My first main on live took me three years to get to 50, and I’m a day one player. After almost 18 years of nonstop play now I get myself PLd to 50 then go back and just play the content I love. Along the way I pick up incarnate levels. So win, win. Like others have said, hitting lvl 50 is just the beginning.

For me, yes they both felt a bit long winded. Did they both pay off in the end? Yes, absolutely. One of the endings for the John Houston arc is laugh out loud hilarious. If you notice the “Homeless Citizen” by the park in Brickstown is no longer appearing there as he now has a full time job. While the Dr. Stribbling arc is a bit tedious in all of its choices, if you get to the final story it is really good and feels rewarding and not just for the Badge.

Ever since live I’ve wanted a Plague Doctor mask. They are pretty scary.

It depends entirely on the toon. Have Stone Tank with Root and Mud Pots and you are good to go. Have a Master Mind with fly and you are good to go, etc

Sometimes while playing, if I come across a bug that didn’t exists before, in the back of my head I wish the Devs would stop creating for a short time. I sometimes get the impression that the more they fix things the more other things break. So…maybe if they stop and just rewrite the chunks that are messed up, they won’t have that problem anymore. Then I start playing again and forget about that thought.

Join a TF. Turn on AoE. Stand where Adamastor spawns. Walk away for days.

The Flashback system is basically a Task Force. Task Forces were never meant to have parts of it dropped. If I remember correctly this is why the Flashback system will never have a drop feature. It would require major rework of the code.

So how much does it take to go from bending the rules to exploiting them? Camping Adamastor for a day? Maybe over the weekend? Four days? A week?
