Developer Cobalt Arachne Posted February 10, 2022 Developer Posted February 10, 2022 Events The Spring Fling event is now active. NPCs Pocket D Ganymede, Scratch, Jessica Megan Duncan, and Arbiter Hawk now have the proper Contact NPC FX rings. Dram and Chilly now have the proper Vendor NPC FX rings. Tasks Spring Fling 2012 - Arbiter Hawk: 'The Widow in Red' Revamped Virgil Tarikoss's dialog tree to better fit his character, as the previous dialog tree was copy-pasted 1:1 from the hero contact. The obol contact now provides a few vials of mana-infused blood which are used in the ritual instead of the player character cutting themselves. DJ Zero's involvement in this story arc has been removed as it violated his 'absolute neutrality' rule. Mercedes Sheldon (in Pocket D) has inherited his role with a rewritten dialog tree. A few lore inconsistences, typos, and mistakes were corrected in the arc's text.

I think this is an old bug from live. Is one Jake Montoya from Skyway? I need to find a semi abandoned villain and see if the hero contact is still listed. I think Montoya… I need to check tonight, "She who lives by the cybernetic monstrosity powered by living coral, all too often dies by the cybernetic monstrosity powered by living coral." -Doc Buzzsaw Pineapple 🍍 Pizza 🍕 is my thumbs up.

My redsiders experience the same with Father Time and DJ Zero, only get offered blue side contacts. Can't remember ever having been offered red side contacts in Pocket D.

It's the same problem as Father Time. For whatever reason the Pocket D event contacts offer new contacts despite not being supposed to, and I guess they default to Hero contacts because Pocket D is technically a blueside zone? I don't know that part, but it's a known issue. Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.
Horatus Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 The contacts wont give me missions. I spoke to Ganymede at first who directed me to DJ 0 but neither give missions. Jessica Megan Duncan does not show as an active contact either. blue side.
ZorkNemesis Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Jessica requires at least level 30 if I recall. Make sure you're good enough to meet her. Same with the Arbiter for the shady types. Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.

Zed Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 It's some form of ancient currency. In this precise case it can be seen as a physical token.

Horatus Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 I am on my lvl50 Incarnate as a hero. None of them are showing as active contacts and they are not handing out missions. They are on other toons I have.

ShurokiGirl Posted February 15, 2022 Posted February 15, 2022 I couldn't get the mishes from the contacts either, had zero tasks and was swapping alignment to unlock them. No dice so I reached out for help. Got a msg back from support, hope it helps others that are stuck. Currently going through and closing out arcs, didn't remember this being a thing.This is usually because you have too many arcs open and need to clear some. Arcs are indicated by a little book icon in your contacts. Check inactive as well as active. Arcs from other alignments will count towards the total, so hero arcs as a villain and villain arcs as a hero.
