  1. Wow. I never thought of that, but I Frankslot everything on practically every character. Is there an option to shut off the warning for slotting enhancements on top of other enhancements that you turned off? or are you just trying to get another warning system added just for purples? or saying that the warning for normal enhances isn't working for purples?
  2. The pop-up menus - if I recall correctly - were actually created by a player and then the DEVs started using them. If I recall there is a thread somewhere about how to make them and there might be more examples of pop-up menus that have been created by players there. I would just call the main page "Pop-up Menus" because I think most players have been using that term. I don't think that the AE one really counts, but I haven't unlocked that one on any characters ... at least I don't think that I have, so I'm unsure what that one looks like nor the costume one (which might be able to be generated by players themselves or something similar without having to unlock it).
  3. And, in that, you explain my marketing profits for the most part. It got so bad before the Sunset that I was selling level 45 end reducers for 4 million a piece consistently across pretty much all of my characters (I had all slots on all the servers filled) when buying them on the market for 100k and not even bothering to craft them for cheaper because of the insane profit margin. And I'm sure that was due to new players not knowing what they were doing, getting inf from others or simply buying it from gold farmers.
  4. Well, I think @Yomo Kimyata will still give some amount once to a @Global. And at one point I seem to recall @GM Crumpet saying the same thing. I wouldn't depend on it, but if you ask for help on the /help channel you sometimes get it. I've been known to help someone out that asks in /help. If you are trying to get enough loot to fully slot out a power-leveled/door-sitting main or alt, ... well ... as far as I'm concerned ... you can forget about it.
  5. I would just make a stand-alone page for it -or- create a pop-up menu page to put it and other non-DEV pop-up menus (because I that the "Fast Travel menu" is the only DEV created/approved one) in that with links their own stand-alone pages.
  6. I actually sell the white and yellow cheap for the community. I know someone else will buy it if not one of my alts. I do some "Robin Hood"ing from time to time, but only with certain characters. I don't really "store" in my bid space. But I usually do put enough bids out for the oranges that the character will need for the next round of crafting. Sometimes I end up having to do this with yellows, but not often. I pretty much can buy what I need on the /ah at prices that I expect other players to pay (which can sometimes mean that I'm buying whatever from one of my other characters) or use merits from card packs to the enhancements I need without infl. I stop putting any salvage other then one bin worth of holiday stuff and some unslotters for other people in one SG base with the most players in. I stopped putting all but the essential enhancements (one that pretty much every character usually slots regardless of Archetype and power sets) in base storage. I do have one base that just is for the winter lord pack enhances, but after opening a large number and nearly filling the base it turns out that I tend only use one set and only use one or 3 of them from that set. Since I'm a character conception player, I only slot them in ice/cold themed characters and I only have so many of those. I was mainly asking poster because they were wondering if anything sold at 1 inf.
  7. If you have been out of the game for so long, maybe play the game on at least one character before rushing to the end-game. But, yeah, if you want the easy path to the end-game (other than just door-sitting on a farm) ... just use Mids to show you how to play the slotting game. But this is coming from someone that isn't going to level any character to level 50 any more. I have my 3 level 50's that I don't play any more and several level-locked 49. I find the game itself much more fun than the end-game. And so many alts that I have fun playing that I don't get around to playing because there are only so many gaming hours in a day/week/year.
  8. Can't you essentially do that by creating AE missions? Maybe just list them all in the AE as "Danger Room: [name]" I'm assuming it would be easier to add AE access to a base item than make a room in a base PvE and mark characters in the base as enemies when they enter the room.
  9. I sell my white and yellow salvage, all non-set IO recipes, and all set IO recipes for sets that I don't feel sell well at 1 influence. @Yomo Kimyata is correct. If you post at 1, any outstanding bid will buy it with the highest bid being filled first. If you post at 1 and there are no bids, the next bid that is placed for the item - regardless of the amount - will automatically purchase the item. I would say it is more likely that you will sell at 1 on an item that has outstanding bids than you are to on an item with no bids listed. I don't think most players are going to bother bidding at 1 unless they see that past bids have gone through at 1. I'm not sure of your intent/goal in order to insure that people buy your white salvage to purple enhancements for 1 influence each. If you really want to gain the lowest amount possible for your sales, let me suggest something else instead. Most players do not set their characters up so that they don't accept random trades. Simply walk up to a character, and pull the item from your tray/window and drop it on their character. And, yeah, that works pretty much 99% of the time. You can always case-the-joint by checking out the targets level, origin, power sets, etc. of a character before performing the Ebil Marketing tactic of targeted reallocation. This way you can give your SO's to those with the correct level and origin to use them or still need to level up in order to use them. You can give them enhancements or recipes that will be useful in slotting their power sets. I think you get the idea.
  10. Well, the donations only pay for the server upkeep and some legal stuff. None of the DEV team is paid. And no, "hefty donations" are not a thing. Homecoming is a non-profit. But, yeah, if there are volunteers out there that could work on animations and coding, the DEVs are always looking for people that can help ... and I might add, when they do get volunteers they are generally work on what they want to see in the game. https://forums.homecomingservers.com/staff/ Looks like 18 DEVS, but, yeah, there is the list.
  11. I don't know about all the buffs, but I know you can turnoff/dismiss the shields by clicking on the icon selecting dismiss or something, and it will turn the power off. I know that is on the player side and you are asking for a system side option, but ...
  12. ... a proc that summons a warwolf that runs around after enemies - for as long as an ATO pet usually stays out - and has two fear attacks 1) an AOE howl and 2) a single target roar? So it can get out one AOE howl when the proc hits and a couple of single target roars as it chases some enemy around.
  13. Sounds like it worked out for the best then. Gratz!
  14. Task forces have always been like this. I have never seen a large number of players drop out from at task force. I don't remember a task force I've been on since gaming with Homecoming server for over 5 years where a task force I have been on has lost more than 2 players from a full team by the end of the taskforce. Sure you can. You just can't do it with the character running that is in the task force. I'm assuming you have more than one character. The whole point of task forces originally was to always run them with a full 8 character team. Being able to run them with fewer characters is already relaxing the taskforce rules. If putting your settings at -1, x0 isn't enough for the end boss maybe you should try to get at least 4 on your task force. I'm glad you posted, but I disagree with you. I think the task force system should stay the way that it is now.
  15. Seems dystopian ... oh, wait .. that was the whole point of Praetoria.
  16. I'm confused. It is a heal/buff/debuff set like the other Corruptor secondaries. Which other Corruptor secondary has powers that cause damage?
  17. Well, I do have several characters that would use this one.
  18. Off topic, but the one stuck in my head at this point is
  19. "Pulse bolts" are also "repulsor ray" technology ... with higher damage ..., so I figure they would do even more knockback than a "repulsor rays". So, yeah, energy blast just like normal "repulsor rays"
  20. Well, "[looking to roleplay - talk to me in /local or send me a tell]" would probably go a long way. I don't know if the rper flag helps or not. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Roleplaying_(Slash_Command) It looks like you already have those bases covered. There is really no way to know if you are trying to ERP with a minor or not, so unless you actually know the person, I would suggest avoiding ERP in game.
