    On-map compass

    Always been there.

    I have seen it glitch to that size, usually zoning seems to fix it, and when it has hung round for a while, the next log-in it was always back to the normal size.

    I'd love Katana myself.

    In time I can see the possibility of some melee, or at the very least assault (from Doms) sets coming to defenders

    I get home generally about 60-90 mins before my wife most nights. In the NAME OF SCIENCE as Von Grun would say, I'll be running a few papers set 0/6 people on my brute 3-4 times a week. These will go to Archie until he cries enough.

    Im hoping one thing we get out in the long run of it is a better feel for the distribution in Pool A drops by type.
  5. I can get to the wiki and redtomax

    I cant get to CIT, Faces or the Titan Forumes
  6. Further during the early (closed may have reached open) testing of level pacts, villains would earn xx experience and yy influence from their pact.

    Could have been a text string error, or a sign that they point to the same database field.
  7. I think the best answer to the 'purple question' is akin to the answer Lord Irvine suggested about the West Lothian Question.

    Though I'm quite partial of citing Arkell v. Pressdram (1971) when people feel they should be able to get purples with little or no effort.
  8. On Triumph, both red and blueside I have a 'private' SG which is for my wife and I. In each there is an inventory kept of level 15 IOs, level 25s and level 35s.

    Once the inventory gets taken down, my crafter in the SG just loads it back up.

    Outside of characters in those SG's I tend to memorise one or two crafting badges, keep a turnover of buying crafting selling for inf going, and place bids on common IOs in advance of the need.

    Getting a level 25 IO for below the costs of a similar level 25 SO is fairly usual. Getting level 15s for below DO pricing is very common with a few days of patience. I thank the badgers for this, you really should be more patient with your sales, but who am I to judge, I'll keep on profiting from your mistakes.

    Everything works better with a couple of grenades strapped to it.

    Request is zone wide (but a different colour than braodcast)

  11. I'll be sending some your way, probably at the weekend.

    Would you prefer a large log of several missions, or logs split out by individual missions ?
  12. Anecdote:

    The team I was on to get both the Master ITF and Master KhanTF badges, 2 defenders no controllers. I was a scrapper on these.

    The team I was on running a +4 level STF successfully, 2 defenders (of which I was one) 2 controllers (Both Illusion).

    Im just not seeing defenders overlooked at the highest game levels.
  13. I'd recommend keeping 3-4 lucks running rather then breakfrees

    Its better a Mag 100 hold misses than you try to get out of it.

  15. An LT has twice the chance of a minion, and a boss three times of a recipe drop.
    (2.67%, 5.33% and 8%)

    AVs have either a 100% chance of a pool A drop or 0% if they are deemed 'farmable'

    That increased drop would be reflected in the chance to drop a purple.
  16. Its been ages since I tried this, but hover your mouse over the colored dots.

    There should be a tooltip for
    Light load
    Medium load
    Heavy Load

    Then when greyed out there were different messages for full and server down.
  17. Yeah its fixed. 3 trips to unload recipes/salvage from 5 (or maybe 6) newspaper missions set for 6.

    Level 50 recipes are REALLY going to come crashing down in price.

    Such a thing would 100% kill my chance of returning, not that i ever played SWG, but conceptually.

    The Auto Assault Server Merge cost folks some names, and that alone caused plenty of cancellations. Having to fork over cash ontop ? Crazy crazy crazy.

    Heyyyyy. I can make a decent stab at understanding Glaswegian whilst living in Georgia. Dundonian is another matter, I lived in Dundee for 4 years and STILL struggled with some folks.

    My German teacher was from the Gorbels. He also taught Russian, and I have no idea how he ever got anyone passed the oral exams.
  21. For a simple duel

    /arenalist
    This opens the arena console anywhere you wish

    Create a new match, hit the list match button

    /ai <playername>

    once they accept press 'fight' and you get ported into the arena fight


    Not well known, but very easy to carry out

  23. Levels 1 to 6 are too early for IOs. [/deadpan]

    Me I tend to avoid them until 10-12 (so level 13-15 ones), but 7 and up there are bargains to be had and slotted that can make the early levels much more interesting.
