    A level 1 anything can go to Grandville, it's no more restrictive than Peregrine Island and unlike PI there's even a nice P2W vendor right off the ferry to make a newbie's life easier.

    I understand what you're saying, but that's a workaround.

     

    For story purposes, not every toon can switch alignments.  I don't want a workaround to go to Grandville.  I want to go there anytime without making a stop by the P2W.  And vice-versa.

  2. The other day I pug'd a team on lfg and specified the Valet badge and a request for serious badgers only.  I got a GREAT team with two people who knew the tactics.  So I split half the team with one tactician and the rest of us followed the other.  Easy, peasy.

     

    A piece of advice: Stay on the ground!  If you aggro the Sky Raiders they'll start interfering (which might not matter, but you know...)

    Def Leppard responded by noting, "Geez, our drummer lost an arm, and we kept him in the band!"

    I remember that!  My friend noted that the drums on the next album (Hysteria?) were a lot simpler than previous albums!  But I was glad they kept him in the band, too!

    The Efficiency Expert badge is easy to get, the main problem is if you suffer a power or internet connection failure that doesn't get resolved in time.   So adding this to Ouroborus would be good.

     

    Arena: debug it and add the ability to have "arena bots" to fight in lieu of actual players.

     

    Not sure what you mean by unlock explore badges for everyone, at level 1 if you are a stalker you can go anywhere except the Hive, and Abyss, and PVP Zones.   so at level 1 you could ghost around and rack up a lot of map badges and plaques.

     

    Also a badge that I try t forget how much I hate is the Avoids the Green Stuff in the Keys Trial.  I grow weary of people not turning off their TP prompt, or having alleged lag spikes that keep them from moving away in time and thus costing that badge for the whole league.  Incandescence is great to have in that trial but ti doesn't guarantee a badge win.  Can be adjusted to fail only for the person or persons that get trapped and not the whole league?

     

    A level 1 Stalker can't go to Grandville, etc (if they're able to reach all the locations you described.)

     

    The other solutions sounded good.

  5. In Port Oakes, there is a contact named Lord Schweinzer.  He's the contact for Mayhem Missions.  But he isn't marked on the map until you find him (he's on the porch of the house on the cliff above the submarine in the nw corner.)

     

    Should this be added to Vidiots?  I ask because he's initially hidden.  Why do they have him hidden like that?  It seems to be intentional.  Maybe they do that to illustrate the clandestine nature of 'paper missions?

     

    Edit: Whoops!  He *does* have a marker if you're red!?  I'm still not used to the (subtle) mechanics of alignment yet!?

  6. Ugh!  The Mayhem Missions was updated similar to the Safeguard Missions in that you can get a particular badge and bypass the newpaper missions and get straight to the Mayhem!  But it wasn't updated LIKE the Safeguard Missions!  You have to hunt/beg chat for the contact's precise location!  For the Safeguard Missions, the contact is a clickable icon on your map!?

     

    So anyway, you'll need the Hero Slayer badge to start:

    The contact is Lord Schweinzer in Port Oakes.  He's located on the porch of the building in the far nw corner of the map.  The Demogogue exploration badge is nearby, and the sub is below him in the water.

  7. Most of the Praetorian missions have short distances to travel (100-200 yards to mission door from the contact.)  These would probably be good for "no travel powers."

    Wich ones are the praetorian missions?

     

    The Praetorian missions (in Flashback) are in the level 10-14 list, the level 15-19 list, and the level 20-24 list.  They include the arcs that have one of these words in the title: Responsibility, Power, Crusader, or Warden.

  8. According to Vidiots maps, a player can log out "anywhere" in First Ward to get the Scavenger Day Job badge.  I logged out on the top of the Mother of Mercy hospital (ie: outdoors) and was able to get my Psychologist badge but *not* my Scavenger badge.

     

    How do I get the Scavenger badge?

     

    Edit: found a place!  You can't earn two Day Job badges at once, it seems...  Also, I had to log out and log back in to get the Scavenger icon to appear under my health bar so that was probably the entire issue!?

     

    Edit: Also, there seems ot be a glitch with the Day Job icon showing up under the health bar.  If you enter a zone that triggers a Day Job (like the police station,) then the health bar icon is updated.  But if you move into a Day Job area and no load screen has occurred, then it sometimes doesn't update.  Relogging will fix this, btw.

    I was hanging out near the Talos Island train station when an NPC named Tim simply said "string". I guess it's possible he's just a huge fan of string, and wanders the streets of Paragon City lovingly calling its name, but I doubt it.

    I saw him in Imperial City too, I believe!?  I just thought he was reciting a shopping list!?

  10. Oh, good grief!  Praetorian missions!  AUGGHHH!!  There are SO MANY!!!!

     

    "Here's my number.  Call me from now on."

     

    "Oh, hi, Character Name!  I can't talk on the phone.  Drag your toon halfway across the map to get to the nearest underground entrance and then load ANOTHER zone to get into the Resistance base!  Or abandon the mission, I don't care!"
