Had actually decided to do First Ward and Night Ward as part of this. Will pick up older Goldside badges through Ouro. This project might not be done until Xmas but it will load into 50 with a truly epic number of Badbes and Merits (not spending any). Also dumping Transcendent Merits on him as my farmers get them. Once he does 50 finally should slingshot to all tier 4s lol
ZemX Posted August 6, 2021 Posted August 6, 2021 If nothing else, this is worth running across a few oddities I never knew existed before. I commented about this one in General when it happened: Unlocking Kristof Jaeger in Nerva requires the Villain badge. The Villain badge is given for defeating 1000 Longbow. Surprisingly, when I looked, I had already done 901 Longbow somehow, so I had just 99 more to go. Having completed that, I went to Jaeger. First thing he wants me to do? "You need to prove yourself to me. Go defeat 20 Longbow!" ... 1 3

Clave Dark 5 Posted August 7, 2021 Posted August 7, 2021 On the other hand, Longbow deserves it. 1 Tim "Black Scorpion" Sweeney: Matt (Posi) used to say that players would find the shortest path to the rewards even if it was a completely terrible play experience that would push them away from the game... ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Snarky Posted August 8, 2021 Author Posted August 8, 2021 Update time: Finished Cap au Diable (except for odd stuff like Tailor, Brother Hammond and Bane Spider Ruben who will be completed with 20-24 stuff) Level 19 Haul: 610 badges, 910 Reward merits, 33 Souvenirs, 216 mission completed and 1 mission failed. (on purpose, villain 'rescue') 65 hours in game on the character. I stand around a bit too lol, so not all of that was work. I did get all Invention badges except the last crafting badge. Got the one needed for Portable Workbench. Plan for 20-24 is just Redside stuff, Synapse, GMs when I can find them. 25-29 I will pick up First Ward and Ouro Blueside (just badge missions) 1
Snarky Posted August 15, 2021 Author Posted August 15, 2021 Update time: Finished 20-24 content. Level 24 Haul: 641 badges, 1,183 reward merits, 46 souvenirs, 320 mission completed and 1 failed. 93 hours in game. (spent time crafting for cash and random GM hunts etc.) 25-29 is going to be tough. Not only all 20-29, 25-29 content (as usual) but Ouro all Goldside 1-20, First Ward (all) and every badge mission Blue. Will also be doing the 1-30 Ouro badge challenges. Tired just typing it out lol. Could be a few weeks before I post the next achievement lol.

Sovera Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 Speaking of Ouro I was completely surprised that my redside tanker was unable to Ouro. As in, all arcs were gold. There was no Graves, no Kalindra, no nothing. Only gold arcs. Weirdness. - Simple guide for newcomers. - Money making included among other things. - Tanker Fire Armor: the Turtle, the Allrounder, the Dragon, and compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Tanker Stone Armor: beginner friendly (near) immortal Tanker for leveling/end-game and Stone Armor framework. - Brute Rad/Stone and compilation of Brute Stone Armor builds.

I have an odd bug in my system where Arachnos Crab backpack started showing up. (on MANY toons, non arachnos, not changeable) I deleted my Crab and it went away 99%. I blame (without proof) the RAM drive the game sits on. I think the game sees 'erased' lines of code under the hood and acts on that.

This was 20-29 and 25-29 at +0/x1, AVs as EBs. (The original default solo settings) Ouro all Blueside accomplishment badges through level 25. Ouro all Goldside 1-20 content. This was a LOT. sigh. Done at -1/x1. Goldside was overclocked in my opinion. I unclocked it. Not fun. First Ward all content done. This was fun. Ouro all Flashback badges for 1-15, 16-19, 20-24. Level 29 Haul: 807 Badges, 2, 576 Reward Merits, 147 Souvenirs, 940 mission completed with the 1 failure. 77 Flashback arcs in that mess. 203 hours in game. 30-34 content will be Redside at +0/x1, Nightward will be done with 35-39 content. Ouro will include only Flashback badges for 25-29 and the Blueside accomplishments for 25-29. 3
Snarky Posted September 6, 2021 Author Posted September 6, 2021 and epilogue... i forgot to turn off experience. *facepalm! I think I made this mistake at least once on live. embarrassing, but crap happens. and unlife moves on. this will be my badger for Excelsior. more hard stuff done on him pre 30 than many of my high badge characters have done yet! I might try Blue Side next time. That particular White Whale has never been landed by me. Cyas in the city. 2
