Have also noticed this today when parking at the next area, my alignment is vigilante but you can still park redside and fill the progress bar for the six redside only DJs. When I attempt to enter the Crey building in nerva, it says I cannot enter, yet as vigilante I can enter the building in Port oakes to work the demagogue Dj

Oh that’s not bad at all!
thank you for the info 😊
100 hours per badge, however I have observed that 100 hours does not seem to fully charge the temp/buff you get from them. That may still need 21 days to fully charge.

Only thing Ive found useful was to turn em upside down and throw some letters on em.
That looks cool, but how do you flip things upside down?

One thing at a time. Not promising the same changes, but the total focus animation cut was taken from a WIP energy melee revision.
Energy melee revision? As in perhaps Its final attack being reverted to pre-13 version?

Snipe changes
Well one of my alts is a blaster. So I have been running missions to test the snipe changes.
He was slotted up to always have snipe perma at L25+ but that required 2 regular hit buff IO in tactics and 4 of the Guassians (all with the to hit bonus)
So this change took a minute to get used to as I wanted to see what would activate fast snipe now.
Aim and Build up separately or alone will not activate turbo snipe. Attacking or being attacked is the only way.
But I find now that using a quick low level attack electric fence or one's origin power should be enough.
Overall I had gotten too used to always perma, this is an interesting change.

Possible bug: the three Praetorian bio towers are all giving the message that a reasonable place to put the item cannot be located.
Have tried the largest room with nothing in it, still receiving the message

Been poking around the base editor, was wondering if any more praetorian items will be added like
The walls used in Praetorian maps, perhaps the stark trek inspired sliding doors to rooms, the yellow vats./capsules you see in some Praetorian maps, sometimes with a Seer in them, Anti Matter's power generators....
Was hoping to make a more Praetorian themed base.

No, the list of launch options is fixed. You can't remove or rearrange them.
Will this be altering in the future?

So now I have Homecoming, Homecoming 64bit, Homecoming Safe mode, HC Beta, HC Beta 64bit, HC Beta Safe mode, Paragon Chat and Titan Icon.
Also whenever I am playing and there is an update for any of the above listed items my game client crashes and when I relaunch Tequila I have to wait for the update to download.
Now if it is an update for Homecoming that is fine. But I do not use the others and have no great urge to use them.
So how I can make some hopefully minor adjustments to the launcher to remove the others?

Thanks, that's very helpful! I thought there were more exclusive badges it's good to know there's a path to them.
You're welcome.
The way it appears now is that all badges can be obtained by any character, provided you are willing to switch alignment and also go to Praetoria to work the badges there.
The badges that you should work on getting immediately are the ones tied to the holiday events.
The instant the event comes online, Halloween, Winter and Spring, you need to pounce on those events and work all the badges as fast as possible on as many alts as you want them on as they are still yearly events. After that, farm up some merits and during May you can visit Luna in Ouroborus where she will offer for 100 merits each the previous anniversary badges.
Winter Event you can get a jump on if you want to buy candy canes from auction house and then go to the vendor in the ski chalet and while there you can also work the 6 ski badges.The rest of the badges in the game, take your time with.

Plus once you get the larger extinguisher and if you have any ice powers....

Yes, Homecoming dropped the eight-person requirement while the multiple-people-to-click-the-glowie requirement was, I believe, dropped back during Live. If you have good stealth it can soloed in as few as ten minutes, which I did several times when it was last the WSF target.
As I recall, the TF/SF/Trial team requirements were all unchanged prior to shut down. Unless i24 on beta had removed them...

Arent there badges in all of the tutorials that are mutually exclusive? Like the big shivan in the galaxy tutorial.
The hero Tutorial is where you can get the Isolator badge for defeating 100 of the contaminated. You can also get it during the Ouroborus Intro arc if you are Hero/Vigilante
Breakout Tutorial for redside contains the Jailbird map badge. Any subsequent missions that take you back to this map will not give that badge. But teh redside ouro intro arc should send you back to get it.
Avid Reader is from the Praetorian Tutorial, if you aren't Praetorian of origin, then become an incarnate, go through an incarnate trial and then chat with Prometheus until the badge dings.
Efficiency Expert Pither: his timed missions are NOT in Ouroborus and never have been. You have to get him as a Grandville contact and succeed at all the timed missions he offers. See my thread in this forum regarding that.

Okay for starters you need to get Efficiency Expert Pither as a contact, so do newspapers and mayhems and run other contacts missions until he is offered, also be L45+ and in Grandville.
He offers a 3 mission Story arc called Alone in the Darque and the timed missions.
The timed missions are the ones for the badge. However in the midst of them he may switch to the Alone in the Darque arc, however that is only 3 missions so you can knock them out fast.
Anyway the timed missions are:
Kick Longbow out of base: 4 glowies and 2 bosses, not a defeat all but could turn into one if you can't stealth it. 30 minute timer
Beat Sense into Fortunata Iverson: two part mission, part 2 is the one with the timer. 30 minutes. Defeat Iverson and guards. Stealth it
Wipe Out Council Base: defeat all and plant a bomb. 30 minute timer
Kidnap Diocletian: not a defeat all, just find him and take him to the exit and remove any obstacles. 30 minutes
Get info about Malta Group: this is also bosses and glowies only. 2 bosses and 2 glowies but you may find that they are split among different levels of the map.
Steal Formula from Crey: back in the day the text for the mission said you would have 30 minutes but the timer was only 15 minutes. The timer was correct and the text wasn't, however when I ran it the text was fixed. So yes you have 15 minutes to find one glowie in a multi level Crey base. here's what to do: stealth to the very last level and click the glowie. Afterwards if you want, go to town on the Crey.
It is suggested that you use your base empowerment station for some extra speed and stealth.
Important things to remember:
1. he offers the missions in random order but usually the 15 minute one is last, however I said usually not always. Also you may start with the Alone in the Darque Arc or switch to it after one or two of the timed missions.
2. They say if you fail even one of the timed missions you fail the badge. Back in the day I did some experiments on test server with failing missions with some alts and they still got the badge in some cases. However that is PRE-SHUTDOWN info, I have not been able to test to see if that is still the case so just win all the missions. Take no chances, just win them. They aren't that hard, just watch the clock.
3. The timed missions are NOT, I repeat NOT in Ouroborus. His Alone in the Darque arc is, but that is just a standard mission arc with no badge. The timed missions are one time only, you fail the badge and you can never get it.
4. There is no point in forming a team for these missions as the badge is ONLY awarded to the mission owner. This is also explained in the dialogue with Pither when you start this.
5. Stealth and speed will get you through these except for the kidnap and defeat all. If you have an empowerment station in your base it could be useful.

I have them all, they should all be blue side, do not remember the levels but they are in Ouro.
As to being called Task Set....eh. They are new badges as of ish 24/25 and they probably didn't know what to call them when they made the badge checklist.
Perhaps this will help you with one of them:

Nah, ol' Stanno had more hair than Marchand.
True but the general design of the face, his confusion with new tech, using terms like hooligan...... eh, could just be a matter of interpretation
-
Ran this the other day.......You ahve to go back to 1963 or 1964 and defeat President Marchand for Lord Recluse to take over.
I hadn't ran this in years so I did a double take when I saw Marchand.......is it my imagination or is there a resemblance to Stan Lee?

The problem with the birthday badges was, that one badge cost 100 Reward Merits, at that time I barley had them. I think it would be ok, if you could buy those any time, I mean the Winter Birthday Badges so do speak, can be bought in Pocket D any time and not only during Winter Event.
Yes, at the moment you can get candy canes from the auction house or possibly the winter themed Super Packs. Get some candy canes and go visit the elf in the Ski Lodge. Between that and the 6 ski slope badges, I only need to wait to gather presents and defeat the Winter Lord, Lord Winter and the boss of the winter mission (I forget her name), and snaptooth 5 times.

Yeah when I first battled them I was locked in Ouroborus TF mode, heard the alert and came into the battle but was nearly done with the mission arc and didn't want to abort/restart it.
Ran an LGTF earlier today and rounded up an invasion league to spawn all 10 heavies and then some 🙂

Correct, they are missions/arcs you can access in Ouro.

Going by memory and a quick check of paragonwiki, we have
1. Zombie Event: when it is not Halloween the vent is still triggered, Per the Wiki it is apparently when halloween costume salvage is redeemed or when the Katie TF is completed or the Virgil Tarikoss SF. 4 badges to get from it,
2. Nemesis Invasion: part of an anniversary event and later triggered on occassion. Badge obtained when Nemesis himself arrived and was defeated.
NO apparent way to trigger this
3. Rikti Invasion: triggered when LGTF is completed, target zone is random. Badge for Rikti that beam into battle (100), badge for 25 bombs and badge for 10 Heavy Suits. I have been in a few of these and do not yet see a badge tracker for the Heavies, bugged?
So, any way to trigger the Nemesis attack? Or can we have the Nemesis event active soon? 🙂

For some time after shutdown, efforts were made to buy the game and NCSoft allegedly came to the table and then basically walked away after apparently stringing the talks along.
NCSoft clearly doesn't care much about CoH any longer, imo.
Also with private servers being very possible, the game cannot truly perish.
As to how much I trust NCsoft, well.......perhaps we should ask Richard Garriott how he feels about them.....

How about the Remembers their friends badge in the next mission? Vincent Ross' arc must have been completed already but is their anything else that needs to be done?
EDIT: Finally got to run the arc after using Ouro to do Vince and Dean's arcs
Before starting the arc I visited Vincent and he did speak with me and there was an option for me to check him to see if he was a disguised Protean. After that I started the arc, but he wouldn't speak with me again and did appear for me to rescue.
So, was it just that I had done his arc, or did I also need to speak with him? Will test again later to find out.

I know, im just saying that as vigilante you cant seem to enter the Crey building in nerva to work that badge, but a vigilante can still enter the building in port oakes to work that badge
