Marine X

Have often thought it would be great if they could add enhancement sets that would work and give set bonuses to sets that only take specific enhancements. For instance: On Brutes, Fiery Aura: Fiery Embrace, Shield Defense: Active Defense, & Energy Aura: Entropic Aura & Energy Shield all only take Reduce Endurance/Attack Rate Enhancements. Also, Shield defense: Against All Odds only takes Reduce Endurance, Attack Rate and Taunt. No Sets. Electric Armor: Lightning Reflexes only takes Enhance Flight Speed or Enhance Run Speed, not Universal Travel or any sets. Not chasing after an Uber build or anything like that, but it would be nice to put a Blessing of the Zepher in Electric::LR, and have some options other than plain SOs or IOs in some of the rest.

Wiki is showing a 404 Error, "Page not Found".

You might try accepting the next mission from Gordon Stacy ( Revenant Hero Project ) before quitting Ouro, ( Task Force ), It is possible without the next mission Introduction Dialogue that it does not see it as totally complete as it is the intro to the Main Arc which is worth 27 Reward Merits. Otherwise I would say leave it be, you already have the badge, not much more to gain.

Sorry to hear you are having a bad experience. Hopefully it was an isolated incident. My time here has shown me that while this is, on average, a much older community age wise, we can still sometimes descend into childish behavior. Don't take it to heart, this is a great community for the most part, you just experienced some of it's dark side, every group has that. Good Hunting out there.

Have you tried any of the options listed above in the post? If so, let us know which ones so we can narrow down the issue.

Very cool, although I sorta got lost for a while which can be a problem, fortunately it was an interesting LOST. Really Impressive, wouldn't even know where to start to build something like that, Thanks for sharing it.

Was in Terra Volta to get Badges, Plaques and work on Tankbuster for a while this morning. As I was almost done with a Crowd of Freakshow the sky turned Red and the Zombie Apocalypse began. Dark Guardsman is level 31, so against level 29 Freaks I was doing fine but running low on Endurance, as the Zombies began attacking and I couldn't rest I was in trouble, I decided to seek shelter to recover. I flew up onto the top of the War Wall and landed, the Zombies began spawning in mid air and falling to the ground, one after another till the event ended. I really couldn't stop chuckling at how Silly they looked falling out of the Sky. It's raining Zombies, lol.

There is quite a bit of info about Gaming Issues on Windows 11, but I've seen about nothing as far as fixes. Just do a google search and see if anything stands out as a possible fix. Wish I had more.

Indeed...thanks folks.

I seem to remember a similar discussion some time ago, and some Makeshift Lore that was presented. The White Plains Mall and Convention Center was located at coordinates are (2949.6, -18.5, -5637.6). Ouch. It is extremely Flat now. The Baumton Airport was North of the City, and south East of Croatoa. It was on the east side of the Zone and oriented so planes take off toward the Ocean. This is noted with an Icon on the city Map. Skyway Int Airport is also marked to be between Skyway City and Talos Island. Cats all evolved into higher lifeforms or Pocket D Regulars, or both, and spend the rest of their time at ICON. Dogs all became Monsters or Social Workers, with Most living life for Clandestine Meetings at the nearest Fire Hydrant.

Thinking it must be related to Patrol XP. Perhaps they are staying on Badge Hunting or on the Market more than you, so not earning as much Patrol XP. You could check the pips around the level wheel to see if you all have the same amount. From the WIKI: While logged out in any location, characters gain credit toward the Patroller or Criminal Day Jobs (versus other Day Job Badges requiring specific log out locations), and are considered to be On Patrol. While on patrol, characters accumulate credit toward Patrol Experience. Characters can gain credit toward Patrol XP and a true Day Job at the same time by logging out in another Day Job's specific location. Credit toward Patrol XP is displayed in the Status Window as a light blue extension off the end of the experience bar. For every 24 hours a character spends logged out, they accumulate 1 bar of Patrol XP, with a maximum of 10 bars. If a character has a number of Patrol XP bars that exceeds the number they need to level up, this extra experience carries over to their next Security/Threat Level. Patrol Experience is not consumed during Double XP Weekends except by debt, meaning a character cannot get Patrol + Double Experience. It still accumulates, though. Note: Colorblind players may have difficulty differentiating the XP, Patrol XP, and/or debt bar colors, as the hues are similar. Calculations Patrol XP is a bonus 50% experience for any critter defeats. While credit remains, any XP earned by a character due to defeating critters is multiplied by 150%, the extra 50% of which is deducted from Patrol XP accumulation. When all Patrol XP has been worked off, the character's rate of earning XP will return to normal. Patrol XP is not applied to the bonus XP gained from other sources such as mission completion, Story Arc/Task Force completion or Exploration Badges.

So if this angle has been discussed I apologize. Assuming that the "Paragon Points System" is still in place but just disabled from interacting with anything, how about a different use of the program. Points could be awarded Monthly to Active Accounts on a Character by Character basis with a reasonable Storage Limit. These Points could be, by the Player, converted to any other in game Currency at various Conversion Rates, ( Reward Merits, Empyrean Merits, Vanguard Merits, Astral Merits ), and then used as the player sees fit, consider it an Active Account Stipend. This would reward Players who actively play and perhaps help bolster our population to grow. Just a thought, but I plan to be here a while, and have plenty more itches to scratch in this game and anything that helps keep it healthy is a win for me.

There have been quite a few people that have reported these kinds of issues. A little troubleshooting can help to narrow down the source of the problem. 1) If you are playing on any of the North American Shards, try running a character on Reunion ( Germany ), this can sidestep ISP issues between you and the Server. Sadly you may be on say, Spectrum for your Internet, but are passing through other services equipment to get to the servers. If you are on Reunion, try the American Shards and see what happens. 2) Try pumping the brakes on your wireless connection. If there is a latency issue with your WIFI, try running the wireless at 10/100 instead of GIG, this can often result in a more stable connection. A Wired connection is ideal, and if you can take your PC to the router, plug it in and it works fine, you will know for sure what you need to work on. 3) Run the game over a VPN. Not cheap or easy but may give you a more stable connection. This has worked for some, but can be a little intimidating, for some, to set up. 4) Running /netgraph 1 or /netgraph 2 may let you see the lag as it occurs, which may be helpful.

There is an odd corner on that map that you have to go around to get to the entrance to the room he is in, it is shaped like a baseball diamond and you enter as if you are at Home Plate. Wish I had more for you.

Which is what I said........

Will work best when installed in a location not controlled by Windows such as a Games folder directly on your hard drive. Otherwise Windows will interfere in it's updates and operation, especially if it is in Program Files or the Desktop.

Found this completely by accident but thought it might help if someone was looking for a name for a new Character. Superhero names (fantasynamegenerators.com) Played with it for a bit and it came up with a good one every once in a while.

Make sure you are not using the 2X-XP Boost from PTW, as that will result in you earning 0 Influence. Only time I have ever seen this is from that, other than if you have Debt, you earn at a lower rate till the debt is cleared. Also what is the level of the mission in relation to your current level?

Placate or Pacify sort of run contrary to working in a Tanker or Brutes Arsenal, both Fury and Gauntlet have a Taunt Aspect, with no way to turn them off. But it might be fun to watch a NPC waffle for hours between Kicking your Butt or Kissing it. I don't think anythings broke, just a doomed combo.

Is there perhaps a way, that the same method that @brigg used to Create Cos-Play Villains from Player Costume Files for his $Comicon Farm Missions in AE, could accomplish this? He was able to create a Pool of potential NPCs to fill the mission from that list of Character Files and the Map/Mission randomly populates the Map with them. Just a thought.....

Welcome Back.

Footstomp on Marine X ( Inv/SS Tank ). Nothing quite gets Introductions Made quite as efficiently for me, they all know I'm here, Mission Accomplished...and a fun animation too. Also cracks me up when the environmental side effects start piling up. On Briggs S/L Comicon City Map I love it If I get a HUGE crowd gathered under the trees along the street, after a while not just a few leaves but entire limbs start falling out of the trees onto the sidewalk, just get a kick out of that.

Rescue Dr. Francois: 60 Minute Timed Location: Striga Island Contact: Stephanie Peebles Level: 21 Excelsior Shard The Last 3 times I have run Mission, Dr. Francois is just inside Cargo Ship at bottom of stairs in the first Mob you see. For a mission with this size of Map that seems to be odd, and as I said, This was the third time in a row he has been in the same location.

Reward Merits are the easiest way to go. You will get various amounts for various tasks. Completing a story Arc will award Merits, As does collecting all the Exploration Badges in a Zone ( 5, I think ). Task Forces will reward more than almost anything except the Weekly Strike Target which rewards additional Merits above those the TF normally awards. Cashing these in for Boosters or Converters is quick and painless. Basically, 5 Reward Merits - 1 Enhancement Booster = 1,000,000 Influence Orange Salvage = between 400,000 and 500,000 Influence each Also, Recipes and Salvage that are only worth 10 - 100 Influence on the Market are worth 250 - 1000 at a Vendor or AutoDoc in your base, it's not much, but it can help. If you plan to change out a lot of Enhancements at once, do it by doing a Respec, this allows you to Unslot ALL Enhancements for FREE and Sell what you no longer need for Influence without having to buy Unslotters. You get a FREE Respec every 10 levels, or after running a Respec Trial. If the Enhancements are RED, they are no longer working anyway and the Influence Return from Selling them will cover a chunk of your Upgrade Costs.

Ran a Praetorian Energy Melee / Regen Brute to level 50++++ and found that he could handle almost anything.... till I ended up on a 6 Person Dr. Kahn Taskforce at +4 x 8 as the Defacto Tank. I did get a start on finally earning the Debt Badges, lol. The Reichsman at that difficulty level just kicked Regen's Butt. Not sure if a Tanker version would be all that much better because with Tough, Weave, Manuevers, Combat Jumping and nearly Perma Moment of Glory, all well slotted, he and the AV summons could still chew through the Hit Points. We did finish it though. They just had to keep reviving me to continue the Fight.
