I noticed a while back that my characters who have completed the Dark Astoria storyline can see the magical ward erected to contain Mot. And then, some time later, I noticed that some of them cannot see it. As a result, I'm curious as to whether this is just an odd glitch, or if each character needs to have earned a particular badge in order for the ward to become visible.

And I'll note that it only works on the blue walls. It doesn't affect the red ones in DA. Of course, removing the blue forcefields reveals mostly a lot of "dummy" skyscrapers that are "good enough" to show there's something on the other side of the walls. But there are a number of places where there is actually something to see.

I like it because I can take screenshots without big patches of bright blue in the background.

I use a mod that turns off the war wall visual effect, and it sometimes allows me to see interesting things just outside of the zones. This shot was taken looking over the north war wall in The Hollows. According to the "Bicentennial" plaque just below, this is showing the damage in the part of the city where the "Outbreak" occurred.

One I hadn't seen before in The Hollows: Blood Brother Slammer: Well, it's like I told her, 'Honey, spandex is a privilege, not a right.' And that's when she hit me.

A Rikti Negotiator I rescued from Nemesis in one of the RWZ arcs: "Profound realization: Difficult occupation chosen: Massive compensation request: In near future." Which I realized was his way of saying, "I'm not getting paid enough for this !@#$."

Miss Action!

Tried out the "Stylize" option on Openart.ai. Original image: A couple results:

So today I just inadvertently discovered that these doors in Perez Park function as base portals: They're all well out of range of being able to click on the actual portal over there.

Heh. The best joke/pun like this I've seen was the bad guys in the iZombie show working out of a funeral home called "Shady Plots".

Level 50 #48: Tabitha Target (Archery/Dark blaster) She's from Scotland.

Heh. I ran into that a couple of years ago. My screenshot software writes to PNG format with no apparent way to change that, and I was just cropping and uploading the PNGs. I ended up having to go through my entire upload history, download everything, convert everything to JPEG, and then reupload. Pain in the ass, but it sure recovered a lot of space.

Thanks, that must be it, since that was the mission. It's odd, though, that it came and went during the mission, and when I checked my buff/debuff icons, I didn't see it. And I've done that mission many times before, and don't recall seeing this visual effect.

Anybody know what the hell the green effect is on this character? She's an archery/darkness blaster, with no powers colored green. This effect seemed to appear randomly on her while in a Crey mission, and lingered after exiting. It didn't appear at all in the next Crey mission, though the second mission didn't have the more heavily-armored Crey mobs that appeared in the first mission. There are also no icons under my character meters that would explain this, as far as I can tell.

I'm getting better cityscape shots since I found a mod that removes the war walls.
