Heraclea

I don't think it is zone related because Tsoos defeated in Steel, IP, and Talos all count I tested that after being surprised by this. I know that Tsoo defeated in radios or in story arcs also used to count, since I finished Serge while running that newer mission with the corrupt museum curator on another character. Just not DA. On the other hand, IIRC you can't work on the IP defeat Creys by running a Manticore, because that mission doesn't exist for you on the TF.

When they're in Dark Astoria, apparently. Just got alpha unlocked and slotted on a character. Started running Heather Townsend in DA. Got to the Tsoo safehouse mission. Figured I'd open up a costume slot while I did that. Got Serge's Defeat 30 Tsoos mission. Waited for the ambush, after which there were 27 Tsoos to defeat. Went to the safehouse and defeated more than 30 Tsoos easily. Mission counter still has 27 Tsoos to defeat. Will have to go to Talos and clear it fighting grays. I think that Tsoos should be Tsoos and all count for the total.

On Christmas Eve 2004, the first Heraclea was created. The character existed before, in Forgotten Realms Unlimited Adventures and other games. The current incarnation of Heraclea returned in late April of this year. On Christmas Day of this year, my fourteenth level 50 completed that part of the journey. Thank you all so very mich.

My vague additional recollection is that base raiding also revolved around Items of Power that were obtained in the Cathedral of Pain trial, which was down more often than it was up because of issues caused by those items. This was in the days where the trial could only be run on characters that were all in the same supergroup. Eventually the trial came back in a highly revised form, and no longer rewarded the Item of Power.

Make yourself a bind that identifies and targets them. E.g. /bind numpad0 target_name "sapper". My current project is an electric armor brute that basically laughs at them, and has been built for recovery anyways. With this character I worry more about keeping the Operation Engineers from summoning pets. There will be only one sapper per spawn - it was not always so - but there may be more Engineers.

Right now I'm soloing missions with Malta, Carnies, and other enemy groups I traditionally avoided on a Radiation Melee/Electric Armor brute. This is also the character I chose to unlock Katie Hannon with, because she laughs at endurance drain. On her Malta missions, she has moved past taking the Sapper out first, and instead tries to disrupt the Operation Engineers to keep them from summoning pets. Looking for ways to leverage the -def in her attacks as she nears 50.

I have the co-op fully functional on Torchbearer at about the place it was on old live. Almost any piece of rare salvage will already be in the racks - too bad there isn't a filing system. There are four enhancement tables, one for lowbies, one for sets, one for random yellow set pieces to gamble with, one for high level generics. These are filled close to capacity. I don't have a lot of inf on any character; when it starts to build up, I buy something that an up and coming character will use. There's a rack filled with sets of Halloween salvage, and another filled with candy canes, and another that's almost all catalysts.

I always make a point of complimenting player characters inspired by classical mythology. And especially, if they choose a name in Greek or Latin and get the grammar right. Ungrammatical Latin guild names were an endless nightmare in WoW.

IIRC there were many restrictions on base construction that were deliberately related to support for base PvP on old live. Some of them were relaxed to some extent later on, but your base still had to follow the strict rules if you wanted to add PvP related items. PvP was never that big on old live, and this was easily the least popular form of PvP. I did some arenas and visited the PvP zones from time to time casually; but I never did this, and I don't know anyone who ever did. I can't imagine this being practical for Homecoming bases, even if they aren';t built above or below the plat.

I slot procs and all other sets in the place where they do the least damage to the enhancement values of the generic IOs they're replacing. If the set has an Accuracy/Damage button it probably overwrites a Damage IO. ATO procs almost always get put on top of a Recharge. The level of the replaced enhancement also makes a difference; I will overwrite the 25 sooner than the 40. This means that the sets generally do fill in from the left. All of this also means that the placement of the set IOs are, in the last analysis, indistinguishable from chance.

My characters on Torchbearer form a collective. I take them on all the TFs I can and we craft recipes we have the salvage for, We pool our salvage and crafted enhancement drops. This also ensures a steady input of lowbie salvage and recipes too. I have characters that are specialized for running low level TFs. I turn any 'odd' merits (i.e. anything not s multiple of 20 or 50) into converters and use those on yellow enhancements until they turn rare and then turn into something a character can use. If there's something a character wants or needs now I buy with merits.
