Actually, if you transfer a character to a server that has a character with that name on it already, you should get a free rename token.

Doesn't bother me, but the art people here seem to have the idea that anything that could clip is very bad and shouldn't be in the game. Letting use have the pieces to use, either accepting the clipping or not as we choose, does not seem to be in their mindset.

Maybe I'll listen to myself this time around.
Quote:I just finished my widow's respec, I have an elec/SD to run through Twinshot's arc, I have an idea for a claws/DA to run through Dr. Graves, there's almost always SG/VG shenanigans, and there's always my claws/elec for funsies too. Oh, and tonight is the Tanker Tuesday Blowout on Champion.
Patience comes easy when you have altitis! At least, for now...
Stop it! Just stop it! You are a mean, mean person! -

I will not be able to help much, since my SD/SS tank is still low level, but the first thing you really need to do is post his current build. You can use Titan Sentinel to export your current build into Mids, then post it here on the board so the knowledgeable SD people can have a better idea of what you need to do.

And if you are incredibly lucky, you can also get a Respec recipe as a drop. You can use Inf to create them, then type /respec to use them. If you have a freespec, you need to use it up first, they take the same slot and you can only have 1 at a time. If you are not lucky, you can buy a recipe on the Consignment House. If you have a lot of extra Inf.
This method also requires you have access to the Invention system and the Auction House. If you are Free/Premium without the necessary license, you can't use it. -
Quote:Yes, the SSE2 requirement prevented my laptop (2005) from accessing the game also, so I called and canceled my subscription. Unfortunately, my desktop is around 10 years old, with an AGP graphics slot. I badly need an upgrade, but the money is just not there. I was hoping for late this year or using taxes next year for some new hardware, but it has been a very bad year for money, so I will have to put it off longer, unless something breaks.Dont worry, they recently upped the basic requirements as well to include SSE2 instructions... people still complained about that one (especially seeing as SSE2 came out in 2001) and not being able to play the game anymore (note: my 1st "real" PC i got in 2001, and it was 1.2GHz and didnt support SSE, but my replacement one just a few years later did (Athlon 64)..
Side note: Shader Model 3 as a requirement is actually increasing the requirement to a 7 year (and counting) standard... infact, it was "high end" at the time of Eve Online release. I can see why people *didnt* want to spend money upgrading their hardware... strangely enough though, if you can Ultra Mode CoX, your gfx card is good enough for Shader Model 3.. -
Quote:That is exactly where those things are shown for Premium or Free players. For VIPs, it shows what rewards they get at the various stages.Also, while we are talking about Rewards... is it at ALL possible to have the various things like Tells, the AH, use of Trollers/MMs be displayed at the relevant tiers IN the Paragon Rewards Menu? Perhaps on that thermometer on the side instead of re-showing all the rewards that are quite obvious just to the left?

No it wouldn't, I only have 420 points and don't get my monthly allotment until the 27th. And I have already spent my budget for extras until November, so can't get more points. If StJ comes out tomorrow, I won't be able to GET IT NAOWW!!!!1!
Guess I will have to wait. -
I heard from one person in Virtue Help that was on a VEAT she had just created at the time. I warned her it was not WAI (Or at least as advertised) and not to get too attached.
-
If you are VIP you have 12 slots on each server without buying any. If they are showing as locked, you should have some server unlocks for that server. The 2 you get as Premium and any you buy (Or had from Vet rewards) are Global unlocks which can be used on any server.
-
Quote:I would bet it is because they are on the same timer the Veteran Rewards were on. Which were given at the end of the month they were due, not the beginning. Which is also probably the difficulty they ran into for awarding them all at the beginning of a mult-month sub.Yes, that means the rewards are all on a different award date. Yes, that is kind of dumb.
In practical terms, it will not make a real difference. If your date is Nov 27, you will get the next months Points on the 27th, and the last months Reward token then. It is the big lump of stuff we got with the Headstart that is messing with things right now and messing with our ability to understand what is going on. -

100% agree. It was pointed out in I21 Beta, and goes from annoying to bad design in Freedom with the new players.
-
Quote:I would be pretty happy with even a new powerset doing this. But I don't know how possible that would be, since it may involve changing the character model.Yeah I agree with it being a lot of work to make something like this happen. Just had the idea rolling around in my head a long time and had to get it out there. I knew activation times and such would be a nightmare to get exact.
With the amount of work it would take to make this idea feasible, I'd guess they would be better off making an entirely new set. -
Quote:Until they changed the software to require Shader 3 support, I was on a 6 month subscription for that game. Every 6 months, I could count on an early morning wake up call from my credit card, asking me to confirm it was a legitimate purchase.I then tried to subscribe to an MMO (based in Iceland) a few months later. It was declined.
Strange i thought, i know i have the money.
I waited for the phone call from the bank (sometimes they do this to check that the transaction was made by you), but none was forthcoming.
In the end I called the bank, and questioned as to why it was declined... it turned out because it was an Icelandic company and it was the 1st transaction i had tried to make with them, it would get declined until I confirmed it. Even if the MMO company had called me, it would still get denied *UNTIL* the bank confirmed the transaction. -
It is a known issue. Some people have it all the time, some sporadically, some never have it. One thing you can try is set your options the way you want them, then save them in the default options file at the bottom of the Options window. That works for some people.

Quote:Took me 7 years and a lot more than $400.Although, catching up is still pretty damn long. Especially if you are right at the bottom of the ladder. I'm slightly above that, but I still calculated that it will take me three years to get to Tier 9 VIP.
With no way to lessen either of those. And it isn't either/or for you, spending more money lessens the time, more time going by lessens the money you need.
-
I agree about the Server Tokens and the Points. Unfortunately, the replies from CS that people have posted here on the boards regarding this have been much more ambiguous about the awarding of Reward Tokens. At least the ones I have seen. And with the issues you mention, practical experience is of little help right now. I certainly hope I am wrong about that part.
-
Well, there are only 3 places to check and it is a small zone. And you don't even have to contribute to get the badge, just be in the area when the construction stops.
-
Quote:IOW, it is available, but very expensive. (And it is a Tier 7 reward, not Tier 8.)So it is expensive to get if you aren't a subscriber or you don't have a lot of vet rewards accumulated before Freedom launched.

Quote:One of the things that has kept my badge count down is not doing any of the farming that is possible. I started working on Medic using Aid Others and you can guess how quickly that was progressing.I did empath at night afk same with the dmg badges. Hard to set that up now. things like that have changed some got easier to get, some got harder. I would hate to have to do the shard tfs or the police band badges villan side on a slow server.
But I got Medic on him on the second or third Underground run I did because of Rebirth. So Empath actually looks somewhat attainable now.
Quote:Of my two side-switching badgers one of them was always what this game would call a "Vigilante" when it came to questions of Good and Evil long before switching alignments was possible. Justifying her trips back and forth are therefore pretty easy.
Quote:My other side-switcher was always supposed to be a hero but I just came up with this idea that one of her science experiments backfired on her and caused her to become temporarily evil like what happens to Superman when he gets exposed to whatever flavor of kryptonite turns him evil. I even came up with a "bizarro" version of one of her main costumes used while she's busy being evil on the redside.
Whatever works, whether you need a "reason" for doing it or not.Quote:Easy out: your character is being mind-controlled or otherwise manipulating into committing evil deeds. They eventually break free and cross back over. -
Mothership Mondays on Virtue, usually start about 7 PM Eastern I believe with 2 or 3 runs the norm. Someone else occasionally does a Friday night run I think.
