    Homecoming wiki

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi!  I noticed what I think might be an error on the Homecoming wiki.  I had a level 44 Controller (Vigilante/blueside) and attempted to buy the tenth costume slot from Anna (Croatoa.)  I had all of the necessary salvage.  However, she didn't offer the costume recipe.  I tried again at level 45 and had the same results.  Then I tried another toon I had at level 50 and she offered the costume recipe.

     

    The wiki says "any level" can purchase an extra costume slot.  I'm not sure if that's limited to the Halloween Event or if a toon has to be level 50 all year.  If someone else could verify this (there's more than one vendor to purchase a costume slot from and I haven't had a chance to test them all yet) that would be helpful I'm sure.

     

    Anyway, I just thought I'd post it for the wiki editors.  I'm not a registered user of the wiki and I've also heard that only a few people are allowed to edit it.

    20th anniversary event badges

    in Badges

    I just found out about these badges today.

     

    Just in case you're wondering how to find said time capsules, you can simply use the maps for the presents during the Winter Event.

    https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Winter_Event/Presents#Present_Locations

     

    Please note that some time capsules do not appear in these map locations.  If you can't find it, just move on.  Redside is better for collecting because of the lower population.

     

    Edit: 65 total time capsules opened to get the badges.  The rest of the rewards were not important to me, although I collected nearly a dozen costumes, both bats, and two of the "vision" powers.  I deleted everything but the bats.

    I just want to know how to get the badge.  I go to the payphone and it says call cannot be completed.  One of the threads I was reading said this:

    • Accessing this story arc requires having completing Doc Buzzsaw's newest arc.

     

    Is that the Freakish Lab arc?  Do I need to change to red and then to blue to get this badge?

    So...  I've had this problem since I started.

     

    Example:

    I have 14 Mathematic Proof (common) salvage and 2 Gold (uncommon) salvage.  The rest of my salvage alternates between 1 and 10+.  Ok...  So I sometimes farm.  Does that make me a bad person?

     

    When I sell, I'll VERY CAREFULLY go through and look over my salvage prior to selling off what I don't want.  Obviously, I sell the 10+ salvage first.  That way, I can just click "Ok" without adjustment as the quantity gets lower.  And *always,* *always,* *always,* I'll find a piece of salvage in the 10+ amount that I missed.  So I have to adjust the amount to sell in the pop-up.

     

    It's not game-breaking.  Arguably, it's not even inconvenient.  But wouldn't it be *very* convenient if the pop-up window automatically defaulted to the max amount to sell?  If I mistakenly sell too many Common salvage/recipes/enhs, I'm not going to lose any tears over it.  And Uncommon/Rare recipes/salvage doesn't occur in higher amounts than 1 often enough to worry about.

     

    And enhs drops are *only* for selling for the badge.  They serve no other purpose.

    New alignment controls?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Underneath my Notoriety settings in the chat bubble there's an option to change alignment.  It doesn't seem to work for me.  Can someone tell me about this, please?  I tried to get a screenshot but hitting the keys caused the chat bubble window to drop.

    Some tips.  These have probably already been stated in previous replies:

    01) Switch to Vigilante or Rogue alignment.  The event happens in blue/red/gold zones.

    02) Create a new tab in your Chat window with "Hero Zone Event Messages," "Praetorian Zone Event Messages" and "Villain Zone Event Messages."  Make sure to check it every 15 mins or so.  Or just leave it "open" so that you can see when the event starts.

    03)  /macro_image "Teleportation_LongRangeTeleport" "Teleport: Cosmic Terminal" "enterbasefrompasscode COSMICTRANSPORT-6608"

    04) Try targeting through a pet.  They're focused on the enemies and it makes it easier to target.  That is, if you can find one.

    05) It's been reported that defeating the GM quickly will make the event last longer.

    06) The bird will catch you by the head and fly up high with you in tow and then releases you.  Use any kind of teleport/incandescence (incan) power to escape.

    07) You might turn green.  Simply open your Powers window and delete "Bad Ent Type" from your Temporary Powers to change back.  Or just wait until you exit the zone.

     

    Edit: No, the GM being killed by drones doesn't end the event.  But if defeating the GM faster makes the event last longer, then you want their help.

     

    Edit, Edit.  Try targeting through a Portable Workbench.  Whut...?  Yes!  Summon a Portable Workbench.  Target it.  And then use your ranged powers to blast the enemies!  This works for *any* situation.  I first heard about this from @Autumn Twilight.  I never knew this, before!  When they told me about it, I was surprised!  So I went to Atlas Park, dropped a Portable Workbench, targeted it, and then blasted some Hellions!  WOW!!!!!

    7:55pm EDT on March 29, 2024.  I attempt to login and after clicking the server I want to login to and waiting a few moments, it kicks me back to the login screen.

     

    Edit: SOLVED!  I exited the game and allowed the launcher to UPDATE the game!  Duh!

     

    Edit, edit: I've been noticing a lot of increased problems ever since Homecoming bought NCSoft!  😉

     

     

    Spring Fling tips (Valentine's event)

    I have found it useful to keep a Valentine's Day mission "all year" to have a tip that won't disappear if you change alignments or after doing a morality mission. I find having one is useful for the times when I start a mission with difficulty parameters I don't want and forgot to change.

    Whoops!  Strangely, I missed your point, entirely!

     

    I kept a Halloween tip (Whispered Rumors) on each of my toons for some strange reason, and now you've explained to me why I did that!  For some odd reason, I kept a Whispered Rumors tip on each of my event badging toons "just because."  But now, I see why my unconscious desire to do so occurred!

     

    Thank you for explaining this "Gamer Sense" tingling!

    I had this Valentine Mish for approx 4 years (3 years of non-playing until spring of 2023,) before I got a legit answer to easily solve it before the Valentine Event started in 2024!

     

    I thank G-d that I asked to solve it before the Valentine's Event 2024 started!  I was able to eliminate it, easily!

    I have an Illusion/Kinetic Controller and changed her Tough (Fighting) power effect to "Flex" because...  Boobies.  Anyway, her body has a glow while flexing which disappears soon after the power is activated.  My other toons don't seem to do this.  It seemed to start happening after the patch.

     

    Is this a setting?  Or something unique to my power combo/AT?

     

    Or maybe it's...  (dun, dun DUN!!!) ...a glitch?  🙂

     

    Thanks!

     

    EDIT: I reloaded the toon and it doesn't do it anymore.

     

    EDIT, EDIT: It does it when I switch the Sybil costume.

    I think I figured this out.  For some reason, the costume slot for my Sybil costume had a Glow aura enabled.  I think it's because my initial costume for my recent toons were designed with the random feature.

    DJ Zero recruits you at the end of the Ganymede/Scratch missions.  Either one.

     

    That worked for me, *sometimes.*  I'm not sure about this but I think if you get a Valentine tip prior to talking to him, then he doesn't recruit you.  Which is virtually impossible to avoid after doing both the Ganymede/Scratch arcs.  Just about every toon I badged the Spring Fling badges for didn't get recruited.  Instead, he immediately initiated the Snaptooth mish.

     

    Edit: Are you saying that talking to him immediately after completing *one* of the arcs triggers the recruitment?  I'm pretty sure that you have to complete both of the arcs to get the Snaptooth mish.  But it didn't occur to me that you would only need one to be recruited for the Valentine deliveries.

    I didn't get a notification for your reply!?  To answer your question: I couldn't be certain the WL hadn't already spawned.

     

    Does the WL spawn at a package location?  Or is it random?  Does the WL wander far when it spawns?  If the WL spawns at a package location and doesn't wander far, then I'm pretty certain that it had not already spawned.
