Ironblade

Sounds about right. In my case, I don't use Mids and I do extreme min-maxing on MAYBE 2-3 characters ever. So I have good few characters with a handful of HO's in the build, but most of them have none because even without serious min-maxing, you can easily find a lot of good set bonuses. As an example of this, Ironblade has an acc/dam HO in Brawl. When you exemp down to a stupid level, and lose most of your attacks, it actually comes in handy.

@macskull OMG your animated GIF is AWESOME!!!!

A ton. I never take the HO. It's 120 merits in like 20 minutes.

I am astonished. I would have quit the task force INSTANTLY, since you can't turn that off once it's set. Ah, so the leader really was stupid. He's running a level 16 task force with crazy settings and isn't aware that lore pets are not available. Nope, no defense. Doing a task force with that setting does NOT give an additional badge. That setting only gives badges in Ouroboros arcs (and not even all of those).

My right hand never leaves my mouse (except to type in chat). I use the mouse to steer my character and the left hand to move. My left hand also activates most powers. I put the important powers in the lower numbered slots (1-6) in the power trays (trays 1-3) so I can easily reach them with the left hand. Infrequent powers, like stuff with a long recharge go in the right slots on the power trays and I activate them with the mouse. Powers that are REALLY infrequent, like toggles and incarnate powers go in power trays 4 or 5 off to the side and are activated with the mouse.

One of the devs explained that would be a MAJOR job since it's two separate databases. CAN it be done? Sure, but it would be way more work so they're not considering it.

It's a triffid, but intelligent - it only moves when you're not looking.

The Weinermobile! Excuse me, it's now officially called the Frankmobile. At any rate, it was in my area on my birthday so we went there and I have pictures of me next to the Frankmobile (the big one on the left). And I got an Oscar Mayer Weiner Whistle.

I voted no but I don't entirely like the number it is currently. On the other hand, 50 is way too high. I'm thinking something around 20-22.

I want a fun vehicle.

What's the good news?

Was this on a Faathim TF? I ask because it's one of the weeklies. One of the bosses can put you in a bubble that prevents you from attacking anything. As for the toggles, did the toggles actually stop running or just stop giving their defensive effects? Big difference. Because they weren't doing it. These is absolutely no power in this game that turns off a teammates toggles. None.

Couldn't you copy to the test server and test it over there for free?

These discussions generally refer to actual inf on hand. I actually have no idea what enhancements I have in my base. Less then one full table of purples, ATO's and uniques so not a huge amount.

Meanwhile, I'm trying to figure out what to spend them on. Ironblade has the mini thing and maybe a dozen costumes plus the badges. And he's approaching 400 Aether (I collect them from other characters to have them all in one place).

How about furries? I have two catgirls. 😛

Two accounts? Those are rookie numbers. 😛 Seriously, though, I have a character named Mule Train on my third account.

Cool. I had an invuln/staff tank who wore a tuxedo, top hat and monocle and was named Stick Chap.

Ah yes, how the little people track their money. 🙂 Back on live, I had a similar spreadsheet except that the purpose was to keep track of which characters had room to hold more. Each character could only hold 2 billion and I had about 55 billion inf and only around 35 characters. And I didn't and still don't like storing large sums in email or the auction house. I don't have that kind of money on Homecoming - only about 9 billion.

The overwhelming majority of badges NEVER behaved that way, so very little has changed.

He was correct. My badger has 1600 also.

um... You're talking to a guy who has characters named Unarmed Wombat, Fists of Furry Fury, Fidgety Girl, Mr Shouty, Toggle Man. I also had Dark Lord Darkness and Lord Footloose back on live. So, I don't think there is a name too silly for me. A name would have to be offensive for me to avoid it.

And when you say "unslot", the free method is to respec and leave everything in the trays. You have room for 70 enhancements and we get a free respec every 10 levels so you probably have some extra. As for the reward merits: Converters and some effort get you the best cash. If you don't care about the cash, buying purples is the lowest effort.

The Secret World had something like that. You had to qualify as tank, DPS or healer before gaining access to the high level raids. Part of the healer test was keeping an NPC alive who was literally standing in a fire and would not move.

Thank you! TPN and Keyes are the ones that I pretty never run again once I have the badges. They have you doing the same thing again and again - but during a single run of the trial. Well, now you lost me. MoM is one of the trials that I'll join if I happen to be around when someone runs it. I just make sure to take someone who can handle the non-stop psi damage, like an electric tank or dark defender.
