I will also add that I have had a handful of 10,000 inf bids up for several weeks now and none of them have filled, so expect to spend more than that for uncommon salvage. The last time I bought some was at 12,500 several weeks ago but I have no idea if that is still a viable offer price for them any more.

There have been at least three threads on this actually. The first two are fairly reasonable discussions, and the last one is Mr. Toad's Wild Ride (and it happens to use my screenshot as the representative image).

Ahh, that makes WAY more sense now (and it is funny). ZFG was not clicking in my head so I actually googled it (yes I am old) and the most prominent return was something about a Zelda speed runner which made me even more confused. It didn't help that this was at 1 AM either. Thanks for clarifying!

If this is addressed to me, I have no idea what you are trying to say here.

tracker Badger - CoH Badge Tracker Website
AboveTheChemist replied to KeyboardKitsune's topic in Badges
If you don't mind, try downloading the settitle.txt file again (via the log parser help page) and re-run it. It looks like the URL to that file was fixed and I mentioned to KeyboardKitsune that @xeaon had some issues with an older version of the settitle bind file, which they were able to resolve. The issues in that thread are identical to the issues mentioned in your post, and it looks like KeyboardKitsune implemented the same fixes to the settitle binds that xeaon implemented, so that new file should take care of those issues. Many thanks to xeaon for diagnosing and solving that problem! -

That is above my pay grade, but @KeyboardKitsunecan probably sort it out for you. -
There is not a reference site, as far as I know. The last 5 listing is the only real window into the prices, but prices typically fluctuate depending on time of day and day of week, and some listings are outright bugged and can show the wrong prices. Generally speaking, the amount you'll pay is inversely proportional to the amount of patience you are willing to exhibit. I tend to bid a bit low and expect it to take a week or two for bids to fill. Any that haven't filled in a week, I'll bump the bids up incrementally. I've been keeping records since last summer, though, so my system is a bit finer-tuned now. If that sounds like too long to wait, then you'll need to adjust prices up accordingly. For the auction house, I think the term 'fair market value' means different things to different people. In my experience, the auction house will yield the best inf gains/savings when you pit your patience against the impatience of other users. This applies to both buying and selling. Sellers list items at the lowest price they are willing to accept for them, and impatient sellers list for lower prices hoping for quicker sales. This can work to the advantage of the patient buyer who bids low, but of course if a higher bid seems more fair then there is nothing wrong with that either.

Do You Make the Same Character Over Again?
AboveTheChemist replied to Herotu's topic in General Discussion
I have about 12 characters I play regularly, with about half again as many that are either mule/utility or regular characters that just didn't click. With one exception, I have not repeated any powersets and I try to give all my characters a unique look. However I do like certain power 'flavors' (namely ice) and I am sure if you looked over all my costumes you might notice a couple of general trends. The one exception I mentioned is a staff/willpower brute hero whose concept and powers I really like, but he just didn't click with me. I got the itch to make a villain (because I'd only ever dabbled redside) and it occurred to me to re-purpose that brute as a villain with the same (albeit recolored) costume, and I love playing him. -

What are your "ignore" habits and why?
AboveTheChemist replied to Tahliah's topic in General Discussion
I am not quick to ignore folks but I will for the typical stuff, which includes some combination of spamming, excessive begging for PL or AE farm, excessive cursing, or just general obnoxious behavior in chat. I checked my list today and had eight people on there, so in the spirit of the thread I cleared the list, especially since I think it's been at least a few weeks since I added anyone, and since I generally prefer the list to be empty. -

No worries! I didn't want to bother you over one minor change. -
Are you referring specifically to the badges named 'Resistance Member' and/or 'Loyalist'. If so, those can be earned as a hero or villain via Ouro as far as I know. I can't recall exactly how, as it has been a while, but I remember looking into it for the badger site.

Ok, what's with the University growing books?
AboveTheChemist replied to Replacement's topic in Bug Reports
I've seen this happen, but the books in the OP's screenshot dwarf any of the ones I have seen, which were more person-sized than room-sized. -
A couple of alternatives if you don't want to fight grey mobs: Spider Smasher - redside Midas Touched mini-arc (Dr. Shelly Percey or in Ouro at level 14, mission 6.18) at team size of 2 Gangbuster - blueside Ring of Peebles arc (Stephanie Peebles or in Ouro at level 25, mission 3.01), run the first and fourth missions at team size of 8 For Invader, the third mission of Who Will Die, Episode 4: Masterpiece from Dakota Berg (blueside in Brickstown), when run at team size of 2, will grant the Hero Slayer badge and open Lord Schweinzer as a contact to run unlimited mayhem missions. The mayhem mission exploration badges can then be earned fairly easily. Edit: I forgot to mention that this assumes that one doesn't mind stepping over the alignment line to run a few missions.

AboveTheChemist replied to KeyboardKitsune's topic in Badges
Gotcha. Yeah, the badge text is the badge text so that should match as it reads in game. And now that I have the badge, I see that the badge text in-game doesn't quite match, so I've submitted that edit. I left the notes on how to earn it as-is, though. -

AboveTheChemist replied to KeyboardKitsune's topic in Badges
I'm afraid I am a little confused. Which specific text are you referring to that is "incorrect/misleading"? I have been casually following the Nemesis Plot Invasion Event thread so I am generally aware of what's been discovered. The information that is currently on the badge tracker page for the badge matches what is on the wiki. If you state the the wiki information is correct, then what specific edits do you propose be made to badger site for the badge in question? -

AboveTheChemist replied to KeyboardKitsune's topic in Badges
I'll hold off on any updates until the requirements are more clear. In general, that credit requirement is a mouthful. How's this: Either the solo player or the player's team (even as part of a league) must be responsible for at least 10% of the total damage inflicted in order to earn the badge. -
April 18th Black, White, & Grayscale Costume Contest!
AboveTheChemist replied to GM Miss's topic in Events & Contests
How long do these normally last? I've never done a CC before and I have a costume that I think fits the theme well, but I couldn't stay much past 5:30 or so. -
I checked my logs and I didn't log in until after midnight UTC (about 8:45 eastern). I'm guessing as far as the servers were concerned it was April 2 by the time I logged in so that's probably why I saw nothing.
-
At the risk of revealing the true extent of my gullibility, this was all just a joke, right? I logged on a bunch of characters yesterday, in order to propagate my chat settings to account for the new general channel. In the process I checked the majority of them for an April Fools badge, but none of them had one. I checked everywhere in the nav bar badge window, as well as in the badge tab of my personal info. If it was just a joke, I certainly fell for it hard.

The defeat badges listed on the Badger site should be in the same order that they appear in game. Just set 'Type' to 'Defeat' and choose your alignment and you should be able to compare between what is on the website and what you see in-game to fill in the blanks. There are also several options for in-game pop menus that list badges using a bright blue text for badges you own vs a greyed option for badges you don't own. That would let you determine which ones you don't have, but you'll still have to do some legwork to determine which ones were available for your alignment, and which critters you'd need to defeat to earn them. You can check some of those out here and here.

The Toy Bat can harm and kill allied NPCs
AboveTheChemist replied to ZorkNemesis's topic in Bug Reports
For about 20 minutes last night, I watched that exact scene play out on Everlasting, minus the crippling lag. -
I don't know if I was there at the exact same time or not, but I saw the chatter about folks getting together to hit Ms. Liberty with the foam bat and came over from Ouro to see what it was about. And for the record I only observed, I did not participate, either in chat or in the activity. While I did not see the extreme type of language the OP mentioned (specifically, I saw no mention of rape, but that's not to say there was none), I will say the chatter in various channels about what was going on was a bit 'coarser' than I typically see in game. And while I don't think anything I saw in chat 'crossed the line' for me personally, I appreciate that it might have 'crossed the line' for other folks. I (and several others) did notice a GM hovering over the proceedings, perhaps summoned by someone who did lodge a complaint. It's entirely possible that, by the time I got there, folks knew they were being watched and had toned down the language. I don't have screenshots but I do log all chat channels if that would be of any help. This was on Everlasting, by the way, and I recall seeing someone with the same character name as the OP posting in LFG a short while later (to take down Eochai, if memory serves), so I have a feeling the OP is on Everlasting as well. If that is not the case, then please disregard.

The badger site saves the badge data in the web browser cache, so likely either you cleared the browser cache manually, or perhaps your browser is set to auto-clear the cache on shutdown. That's assuming of course that you were looking for them on the same computer on which they were originally 'checked off' on the badger site.
