  1. During World War II, Julia Child was deemed too tall to join the Women's Army Corps... >.> ...so she joined the Office of Strategic Services instead.
  2. Per https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Inspirations#Inspiration_Levels "As a character rises in levels, they will find higher tiers of inspirations drop from defeated enemies." Does anyone have more specific info than that? Frex "At level 30 if an Insp drops it will have a 50% chance of being Large, 35% chance of being Medium or 15% chance of being Small"? Edit: Also, does character level affect the Level of Inspirations granted by Inner Inspiration?
  3. Holy Four-Letter-Word-That-Rhymes-With-Legit! We're LEGIT!
  4. So Green Jack O'Lantern, my Dark/Dark Defender has Shadow Fall with a green tint. The Shadow Fall effect seems to be slightly obscuring the flatscreens attached to my Teleporters. I'm wondering if this affects all Teleporter flatscreens or is it just because I've got the mod that adds location text to each flatscreen. Edit: this is not really a big deal, hardly a game stopper. I'm just curious if anyone else is experiencing this.
  5. OP didn't see this coming? [[shakes head]] That's a rook move, ya hate to see that.
  6. Woot! Finally, something I'm above average at!
  7. Respectfully disagree, see my post yesterday. On beta it took me only 16.8 mil to buy SO's and Upgrade every 5 levels (7, 12, 17, etc) to 50. Doing just the TFC task forces alone gets you 212 merits. That's 636 converters. At SELL IT NAO price of $65,000 per converter that's over $41 mil. Edit: If you start in Praetoria (which doesn't really have TF's like the TFC TF's): just doing a Storyline from start to finish (ie Crusader or Warden, etc) gets you 80 merits (Loyalist) or 81 merits (Resistance). 80 merits gives you 240 converters. At SELL IT NAO price of $65,000 per converter that's about $15.6mil. By level 20. Exploring the three zones will get you another 15 merits or about another $2.9 mil. So by Level 20 in Praetoria, you should have enough to buy SO's and hit the Upgrade button every 5 levels until 50.
  8. Well, I did as suggested and created a toon on Beta, Upgrading every 5 levels. It only cost about 16.8 mil. I'm confident that the Merits earned (don't forget the easy merits just for exploring a new zone) will be enough to cover 16.8 mil.
  9. Thanks! Great thinking! Unfortunately, that won't work b/c stores on Beta don't actually sell enhancements so no way to "buy" SO's since they're free. This, so much this. Which kind of leads into why I asked the question. I've got plenty of Inf. Every toon that I want billion dollar-builds on has them, plus a billion or so Inf just sitting around doing nothing. But what I'm short on is time. Try as I might I can't buy time. I can sell time, we all sell time, most of us sell 40 hours a week. Just can't buy any. So when my SO's turn yellow, do I really want to spend 15-20 minutes shopping for salvage and recipes then crafting recipes into IO's, then slotting the IO's into powers - oh and buying unslotters for when I'm ready to replace those with higher ones later? Or do I want to just hit the magic Upgrade button and spend that 15-20 minutes playing? That 15-20 minutes is a few story arcs. Or a Posi or a Penny. Or a Posi AND a Penny. Which brings me Merits that I can use to buy Converters which I can sell on the market for funds to keep pushing the magic Upgrade button. So I guess what I really should have asked was: is it viable to just vendor everything EXCEPT Orange Salvage and Special Salvage (Converters, Catalysts, Unslotters, etc) and the occasional high selling recipe - which is actually worth selling on the AH. Would THAT strategy earn enough to keep pushing the Upgrade button every 5 levels or so? Yes, I know it's wasting INF. But that's what INF is for....
  10. Does anyone know how much roughly it costs to outfit a toon using just SO's from 1-50? I know it's a nearly impossible question to answer, there being billions of possible powerset/powers/slotting combinations. But what's a ballpark figure? $5 mil? $10 mil? $20 mil? Also, is there a cost difference in using the magic Upgrade button every level versus every other level? I know back in the old days before the magic Upgrade button, we would only replace SO's at Lv 12, 17, 22, etc when they turned yellow. What's the optimum now?
  11. Back on Retail I had a Flash ripoff superspeedster who was a Ele/SR Scrapper but he was only a Scrapper because at that time that powerset combo was only available blueside on Scrappers. But now that the combo is available to blueside Brutes and Stalkers, which AT do you think is the best fit for a Ele/SR speedster? (don't really want a Tank) Corollary: is Stalker Hide stackable with Superspeed's stealth? (Or was stealth recently removed from Speed pool? Does Superspeed still take Celerity Stealth? How does that interact with Stalker Hide?)
  12. You've got 7 LotG Globals. Isn't 5 the max?
  13. Ah, OK. So there is a prereq, just not a mission prereq. Thanks!
  14. How do I run Loyalist missions while secretly working for the Resistance? I'm pretty sure I need to start as Resistance, right? And then start with Praetor White and run Loyalist missions, I'm doing that as well. But when I come to a mish that has "Members of the Resistance working under cover should call Calvin Scott"; I call Scott and he does nothing different other than just offering normal missions. Are there some prerequisite missions I need to run for Scott before going undercover?
