FORGOT A BADGE!?

[Errants]

Got tired of jumping around zones and grabbing requirements by accolade, so put together a document for by zone. Will work on a hero one, eventually.

[Frozen Burn]

Wow, this is a lot of work you're putting into this.  I appreciate that you're putting it together by ZONE instead of by accolade. I hate the villain accolades - they're much harder to get than hero-side, so I love resources like this that make it easier to get what you need. 

 

However, you're duplicating a lot of what's already on ParagonWiki - especially the explores and plaques. I'd hate to see you waste a lot of your time putting that info together.  I (and many others too) always grab explores and plaques as I go through a zone's content so never need to go back for them.  Occasionally not and of course there are those who always skip them until later - but Vidiotmaps makes easy work of it whether you go as you level up or coming back to it later.  But your comments on their locale:  "on top of a building" or such really helps. 

 

So what is REALLY useful with what you've put together are your notes / comments, like:  "Ironman Badge - Achievement - Endure 1,000,000 HP of damage. The fires on the buildings in the middle of the map will do constant ticks, can be used for a farm, just be in a TF/Oros/AE arc so you don’t get auto-logged," That is great info, I didn't think about those fires or to use them.  But also, I wouldn't do this as a lowbie leveling up and going zone by zone - not enough HPs and regen to make it worth while.  I also like the tip you gave:  "/citytime will give you the current in-game time" - I didn't know that slash command - Thanks!!

 

Another suggestion - please include the name of the accolade somewhere next to the badge.  That way, if we already have an accolade prior to viewing, we can easily see what we're missing. 

 

Thanks for this work!

You are correct, the Annihilator badge is still required for Marshal and seems to be missing from Errants' list above.  Good catch!

SHIT! Thank you, editing.

This is why I threw this out there. Crowd-sourced QC... I forget that Marshal is such a PITA with the dual req of 4th arc completed and running LRSF... Though, should be nicer with it available in Ouros.

An easier way to obtain the Pirate badge is to run the "An Arachnos Ghost Story" story arc from Veluta Lunata.  You can find it in Ouroboros levels 10 - 14 range.  Run the first mission at x3 should be sufficient, x4 if you're paranoid.

Appreciated, forgot that HC got rid of the badge requirement to unlock her.

This will also be done when I dig into it again, and/or work on the blue parallel. Busy with work and license renewal for EMS.
