Clave Dark 5 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I just did the banners in PI and turns out I didn't get any badges for it, none for the banners, none for the GM at end. I did get to choose the temp power reward though. Going over the wiki page for the banners, nothing stood out to me as "ah-ha, that explains it!" The only straw I might grasp at here was that I wasn't wearing a ToT costume? But surely that would be included on the wiki page if it was necessary... right?

justicebeliever Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Did you do it last year and already have the badges?

AboveTheChemist Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Wearing a costume isn't necessary as far as I am aware. Were you solo or on a small light-damage team? I can't recall the exact numbers but I believe each team must do a certain percentage of damage to qualify for those single-target defeat badges (like the ones for defeating giant monsters). 2 Popmenus > Badge List | Optimal Paths | Conversion Possibilities | Emotes Wiki Pages > Costume Color Schemes | Set Bonus Comparison Tables Maps > Vidiotmaps | Optimal Paths | Halloween GM Maps | Winter Gift Maps | Offline Map Viewer Sounds > Banshee Sonic Attack Datasets > Recipe Salvage Components | Badge Name & Settitle ID | Exploration Badge & History Plaque Coordinates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraumaTrain Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 (edited) Look in your Events tab under badges. Double check. If you don't have them... Were you on a team, or solo? Maybe it's like fighting GMs where you have to do X percentage of damage to get the badges. What Chemist said and beat me to it.

Clave Dark 5 Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 I double checked under events. None. No I did not do this last year on a character that I only created in July, ha ha. The wiki pages says The badge for defeating the Giant Monster is another story; you or your team will have to do at least 10% of the damage to get credit for the badge so that might cover him, but what about the banners? Unless of course the wiki page is o\incomplete. I was not solo nor on a team, but in a league.

ZorkNemesis Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 The game doesn't care how big your league is when awarding badges for monsters, if your individual team within the league didn't make the cut then there's no badge to be awarded. If you're part of a league, but still alone on team 4, you would still need to meet that 10% threshold yourself. ToT costumes aren't necessary. 1 1 1 Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcane Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 You definitely have to contribute a bit against each banner. I only got 2 of 4 badges first time around because our league was spread out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clave Dark 5 Posted October 16, 2021 Author Share Posted October 16, 2021 So I was doing this on a different toon, a Bots MM who can dish out some damage you bet! And I did manage to get most of the badges this time, so unless someone looks into the code and comes up with different info, it really does appear that you DO have to do a certain percent of damage not just "any" or not to be just "nearby when it happens." Of course, what that percentage is... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 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.
