Jimpy

Let's not get all rational here.

I was exploration badge hunting when I got a thought. Do developers when they are placing badges think "is there a roof with radio broadcast antennas? No, how about the bottom of a water fall? Still no. Find an abandoned car" Jimpy A snappy message should appear here

I've been on a few nemesis events lately that were plagued by people setting off AOEs and fighting everything but Nemesis himself. Ever try and fight a 15 times vengenced GM?

And since almost all my toons have the Villain of the Month badge, I have that drilled into my brain.

There are quite a few annoying little bugs in the Twinshot strings. In the first mission you can end up with multiple Twinshots (and on rare occasions Flambeauxs) especially if you play with a team, and its hard to tell which Twinshot you are supposed to talk to. Also, in the mission where you and Grym are trying to stop a demon from being summoned, Grym always stands in the Girlfriend From Hells fire until he dies. Whoever coded the Twinshot/Graves strings did so quickly and on the cheap.

Just about every toon I make starts out a villain, turns vigilante (for faultline, striga, and croatoa-good merits and a ton of temp powers, my last two toons went both ways in striga), then goes rogue. Just about every toon I have has the title "Villain of the Month" and a surprising number of my female toons have the title "Father". I don't know why more people don't play red side, but I'm not talented enough to make a music video of it.

Yep, and I went in there with a group of three and we should have gotten close to finishing the badge....but nothing.

In fact, I don't have any vamps at all according to the game, I pretty sure I picked up a couple when badge hunting on striga. Is the badge bugged? OK I have 6 vamps. So none of the ones from the mission counted. SInce when did 5th Column stop counting?

I just did the all 5th column vamp mission from Orpheus and I got credit for ZERO vamps towords the badge. I know they should count unless they changed something and I missed it. So do they count or not?

I guess if I had to pick one, it would be my Ice/Willpower sentinel Frostbeaux. I've gotten quite a few sentinel haters to admit that if you really deck out one with sets and know what you're doing, they are great.

I got an Echoia, Eichoa, Echaoi, whatever on the first kill of him I had. Haven't got another since, but I haven't done that many GMs

I got an update, but no word on what that was for. It wasn't big enough to be page 7.

One of my toons alone has 500 million. The Rest probably have that much combined.

I was with a pickup team doing freakshow. I was the only tank or tanky type. As i run up to a group, the blasters set off AOEs and I can't always, or even usually get aggro. Then it's my fault when they die. There's only so much a tank can do, even with taunt 6 slotted with Perfect Zinger and Quills and Genetic Contamination going. There are quite a few people playing who go to the Church of Leroy Jenkins.

My style back then was run in there and whomp on the enemy and it still is now, I'm not subtle.

I usually do Mathew Burke through the snakes in Mercy, just to get used to how my toon works. Then I hit up Null the Gull and go to Atlas. There I do Habanashy/Costel/Theiry and Twinshot. Then its back to red to get the Invader badge, I have toons on two different accounts who can do it now, and maybe the Loa Bone and Plague Carrier, if not, I'll get them in flashback later. Back to blue for the midnighter guy and more Twinshot until I hit faultline. Then all of faultline, all of striga, all of Croatoa, and usually I pop back to red to fight 8 of my clones at once at some point. After Croatoa I stay red till Maria Jenkins. Dean McAllister, whoever follows him, Doc Buzzsaw, and Mr. G are the only ones I do with all my toons. Besides them, I try different red side toons till it's Portal Jockey time. By the time I hit MJ, I try to have Invader, Atlas Medallion, and High Pain Threshold. If I can pick up a Mortamir Kal group, I'll do that too. After that it's pick up task forces I missed along with flashback, tips (staying Rogue or vigialnte) and Rikti War Zone stuff. Once I hit 50 it's Mender Rameil and when I get my alpha level shift, it's off to Dark Astoria. Then I'll do either all the Grandville or Peregrine Island contacts I can get. The main thing is, do all the contacts I can get so I know what my toon can and can't do, and what I need to fix using incarnate powers. I have a friend who ALWAYS power levels to 50. Always takes musculature alpha, whatever the electric judgement is called, and the barrier destiny because, as he will say, they are the best and you would be stupid to take anything else. Many of his toons are level 50 and have endurance issues. He also has way over 100 level 50's spread out over 4 accounts. He has an electric/electric, fire epic, musculature/electric judgement/barrier toon on every account (really he has about 10 on each account) and that's the only toon he uses on that account, he drags others around and power levels. He has way to many toons that are sitting at level 50 doing nothing, not even incarnate stuff. I have 4 accounts and way to many level 50's too, but I know what all of them can do. He also has over a dozen toons with Unai 's mission to explore the 1st dimension (freakshow) saved and he farms that. I'll admit I have a couple of toons with that mission saved, it's a good way to get the tankbuster badge. But if I save one of Unai's missions to farm, it's more likely to be the explore the second Nemesis world mission where you have to save the trolls, and I farm that for the fakes. I can honestly say I've done most, if not all, the level 40 to 50+ contacts, red, blue, or gold a couple of times. I can honestly say my friend hasn't done the Wards once and only hits up grandville if he's piggingbacking on my missions there. Other than Tina, Maria, and Unai, he doesn't do the PI contacts. One time he tagged along on the kidnap Miss Francine string and said other than fighting freakshow it was stupid. ANd maybe it is, but he farms the same mission about 10 times a week and to me, that's stupider. This has been you're rant of the day

I'm playing a Titan Weapons tank and in the first Nocturne mission and the last Sands mission, my arc attacks, including Sands of Mu, won't even target mini subs. My one on one attacks all work. Even when I can hit with like my brawl, the arcs keep saying not in range.

But I've got Disney+.

Hey, I'm a red-sider, if you look.

Shouldn't this panel be on the inside of the elevator?

Now all I have to do is convince Norton to let me install this. Mission accomplished, but it took a while.

Well, at least I got to the server select screen again, no further, that's an improvement. I have other games I could play, but I don't wanna.

Strangely enough, it's been working correctly for the last couple of hours.

these are level 50 alignment missions being done in Atlas because it's usually easier to do there

Rocki, my rock/rock tank takes aprx forever to get from point a to point b, at least without turning off granite armor. With my normal running 3 toons MO, it was, until recently, easier to use recall friend. Now there are times she is greyed out and I have to run (or more specifically jump) her. She has long range teleport. Team teleport sucks. They did something recently to recall friend. I never had trouble teleporting someone around Atlas or PI til yesterday.
