Not sure how much work this would be, but it would be nice if we could suppress all sounds except glowies, or ideally separately control glowie volume. Some powers and missions have such loud ambient effects that glowies can never be heard. There are some missions (like the next to last chapter 6 DA mission) where invisible glowies can spawn in areas with loud ambient effects. Finding these glowies, even when Ihave a really good idea of where they are, can be a real chore. In addition, some of the glowies in the first mission of the new Cim arc can be very hard to see and hear depending on graphics settings.

Second mish of ITF. The new door locations.

Mission tp and team transporter deposit me under the map on 2nd mish. Has happened a dozen times.

Oh yeah???

100 billion for the "Huge" crotch bulge belt costume option would have an enormous inf sink potential.

Wow I wish I could sell you transcendents for a billion a pop. I compulsively hoard mine and never use them to craft incarnate stuff. I multibox farm tinpex and DA arcs for that. Most of my 120+ toons have 400 or more emps stored, and my emp farming toons have a large multiple of that.

I have always been enamored with the idea of using one's own body as a weapon. If a toon can have super strength, they can also have super corrosive biological fluids, and there is nothing less believable about evolving superpowered sneezes than evolving the ability to project energy blasts. Here is the basic framework for the bio blast set I have imagined. I know the existing animations might not exist, making implementation problematic, but I am more than willing to upload a high res video of myself performing the animations if that would expedite the artistic process. Tier 1. Snot Rocket: light ranged damage (toxic) , short recharge. By covering one nostril with a finger and forcing a superhuman volume of air out your nose, you project a glob of toxic mucus to damage your foe. Tier 2. Hock a Loogie: moderate ranged damage (toxic), moderate recharge. Pretty self explanatory. A heavier method of assaulting with toxic mucus. Tier 3. Projectile Vomit. 50' cone, moderate damage (fire), -RES, moderate recharge. you spew a cone of boiling hot puke at your foes, damaging them and lowering their resistance to further damage Tier 4. Fling Poo. Ranged targeted AOE. Moderate single target damage (smashing), splash damage (toxic) 10% chance for mag 3 stun. You chuck a big handful of the original bio grenade. Tier 5. Silent but deadly. PBAOE sleep (16 targets max). You assault your foes with a offensively toxic cloud of bowel gas. Tier 6. Drink booze. Self +DAM, +tohit. By throwing some of the devil's brew into your digestive system you significantly add to the deadliness of your biological attacks Tier 7. Urine Snipe. ranged extreme damage (lethal) recharge moderate. You slice your enemy with a high pressure blast of biologically processed morning coffee. Tier 8. Dad sneeze. PBAOE stun minor damage (smashing), recharge long. You stun your foes, shattering their eardrums with the earsplitting sound of the dad sneeze. (16 targets max) Tier 9. Bowel Explosion PBAOE extreme damage. -DAM, -res, -def, -tohit, foe stun, foe hold, 50% chance for mag 4 confuse. No description can do justice to this power, the ultimate tier 9. I understand that the playerbase of some MMORPGs are not suited for content of this nature, but Homecoming players are too mature to giggle at poop jokes, and would be able to solemnly enjoy the natural functions of the superhuman body.

Badge hunting is now and will always be the least respected form of epeen.

When you finish a story arc the mish holder gets a large xp bonus. Any chance the other players did not have the same story arc open?

I don't have a mace/regeneration but mace/shield is fantastic and may fit your theme.

Get rid of them. It puts the team leader in a tough spot if someone goes afk or freezes in short TF. No one wants to choose between pissing off their friend or 6 PUG members that could become friends.Just waiting a few minutes and giving 5 minute warnings and stuff has caused several TFs to fall apart for me lately. Another option would be the ability to force completion somehow, but it would probably easier, coding wise, to just make the contact available when the mission completes and not wait for all to exit. There are only a handful of TFs that have this problem.

Make sure you don't have an interruptible power on auto. That happens to me if I accidentally put snipe on auto sometimes.

Most chemicals with an amine functional group are pronounced with an -een or -in sound at the end, such as glycine, amphetamine, epinephrine imipramine, and cytosine. Given that superadine has no primary, secondary, or tertiary amine groups, I think it is very likely that it rhymes with fine.

What's considered a lot of wealth in the game?
Gerswin replied to Alphabet Soup II's topic in The Market
To clarify, I have about 15K emp merits which could be converted to 150K reward merits. The rest of the merits are already reward merits. Most of them were earned through multiboxing tfs/story arcs with my kids/nephews. -

Gerswin replied to Alphabet Soup II's topic in The Market
I know I have a lot of stuff across my accounts, but I have no idea how my net compares to the titans of the ah. Also, 4 members of my family play fairly regularly, so it is not all solely mine. 1. I have 120 or so fully built purpled T4 toons, some with multiple builds. 2. If you count emps as 10 merits, I have about 650K merits across these toons. 3. all 1200 base storage slots are mostly full of purple, ato, pvpio, and a few rares in my 3 SG bases. 4. most toons have 100mil or so inf, but a few dedicated marketers have 10bil+ in lowball bids just lurking for someone to gamble on a low listing price -
What to do with Khalisti Wharf? (Suggestions within)

Trip mine! It is so situational but when it shines it is so satisfying. I love keeping track of where ambushes or other mobs spawn and putting a big surprise in place for them. Possibly my best zone PvP memory from Live was when I lured a stalker who was trying to steal my nuke codes onto a camouflaged stack of mines for an instant KO.

A big portion of those packs will be opened on his personal account. He has a few dozen 50s that are completely unslotted. If you ever see oddly colored melee AT's with animal heads, wings, and headache inducing aura effects flying around town with randomly selected powers nuking grey mobs and being completely unresponsive to all forms of chat, it is probably my son. Last night I was ambitious and I converted about 10K merits into converters and purple recipes. I listed what I could and then used some others to make a few hundred sellable enhancements. I ran out of steam and energy with about 3K converters left over. I am thinking I may just give up on the liquidation goal for now.
-
I think I am going to start liquidating 5K merits/day by different means and see what works best. I have a few bases full of crafted yellow enhancements that I can blow converters on so I don't have to list so many on the market. I had not considered Winter IOs, as I was expecting them to get real cheap in a month or two due to winter event, but I will look into it. If I fall short of 50 bil I will not be upset. I just figured having my son opening thousands of winter packs would keep him entertained for a few hours and it would give me plenty of busywork to marketeer during my January zoom meetings.
-
My precocious 4 year old loves to open super packs, which I find boring. I plan on letting him hit the winter packs hard in a few months as well. One of my accounts has a great big stash of merits. To get super/winter packs, I need inf, not merits. My goal is to liquidate 250K merits into 50 billion inf as quickly as possible so he can go nuts opening super packs now and winter packs over break. Selling converters/boosters seems too slow and tedious, but that is probably what I'll do if I can't find something better. Any suggestions?

... for maximum epeen flex? Obviously there is no tangible benefit to going past vet level 100, but I want to look as hardcore as possible. I was thinking about stopping xp at lvl 69, but it is too late for that on any of my main toons. The next logical stopping point is either 690 or 696. Obviously 999 is trying too hard. I don't think I will ever figure out how to be a hardcore gamer.

Considering all of the time sinks associated with making a "fully developed" toon, the influence making is only a fraction. Leveling 1-50 and unlocking all of the incarnate slots takes about 4 hours, getting accolades takes another 4-10 hours depending on what accolades (just passives or geas, vanguard, etc) and I am being honest it takes me 2-4 hours to get all the costumes the way I want them. Having a stock of transcendant merits and a toon with all of the badge contacts and missions available speeds things up quite a bit, but some things just take time. I have way more lvl 50 toons IO'd and T4 incarnate slotted but still pending on accolades than accoladed toons that have a use for influence. If you could buy accolades for a billion inf I would probably spend more time marketeering, but as it is, inf is not a bottleneck at all.

Any increase in rewards for certain behavior will just cause it to be farmed. Since accounts are free, there is nothing to stop an overachiever from using multiple accounts to farm radios or WSTs or Ouro arcs or whatever. Anything a team of casual players can do an efficient player can do solo or duo with a team or league full of leeching accounts.

I will have to post my proposed "e-peen" mechanic and the ways that vet levels over 100, badges, and SG prestige could be used to increase its size.
