Council have access to Martial Arts, lord knows I've died at the hands of LTs and Bosses often enough thanks to a Thunder Kick or two.

The difference maker (besides and level spawn variance) may be that more 5th have the MA stuff than the Council guys, who tend to favor AR style attacks which are generally slower DoT dmg.

I've never run the mission and not have to go around and kill everything, and not seen multiple open spawns run for the gate. I've soloed, duo'd and trio'd this more times than I care to count, and there may have been once (and only once) where we succeeded and still had spawns on the board (though I could easily be misremembering a failure)

That's not really a debate you want to get rolling on. You asked your question, got an answer, and should leave it at that. It's a US company, and follows US laws in terms of moderation on the US servers.

Short answer: Nazi names. Very popular in the first weeks of CoV, and very quickly changed to GenericVillain#####

I count real good up to 10, and I agree with Aett.

When I say thinker, I'm not talking about a challenge I'm talking about paying attention to what you're told. Clearly stated and obvious facts that should trigger basic (not advanced) problem solving techniques. In terms of challenges this one is at most a speed bump. If you're not prepared to exert the minimum attention span required, I fail to see how that's the fault of the game in any way shape or form.

That's happened to me more often than I've had the disguise available. It's given the mission before the tunnels, which is a pretty long one. Then also it's an hour from when it's given, not an hour of use, so if you take a break or stop playing for the day, it's gone when you get back.

I don't fault vinque for losing access to the power. Freaking out because the waypoint is a little unreliable and you're not willing to take a look around the zone is another matter.

How is this by any definition 'sudden'? If you're running normal content, you have exposure to Hunt missions that have even less information to go on than this. If you're reading the mission dialog it's pretty clear these missions are underground.

That's the mission briefing. It's about as clear as it can be without big orange letters that you're going to look underground. You're not being punished for not being an Explorer type, you're suffering for making the choice to play on autopilot and over relying on "go to waypoint ASAP and go in door"

I love all the things this game does to make things easier for people but it amounts to handholding, and you cannot blame the game for an occasional lapse that requires you to engage your thinker. If you're going to go so far into hyperbole as to call this punishment, then it might be better to play in the AE where you never have to look hard for the door.

Technically speaking the costume is for all four missions in those areas. It would be nice if they told you that, but it's not a necessity.

You do understand that someone had to do it on their own in the first place, right? It's not the game's fault you're not an Explorer type, but you shouldn't get pissed when they put in some things that reward that type of player. Instead of getting pissed (and frankly whining) just take this as a lesson about yourself, calm down, and in the future, learn to look before you leap.

If you have trouble finding something, ask before you get pissed. Most servers have active Global channels for badge hunting, TFs, and general chatter (on Pinnacle it's Pinnbadges. You're welcome to join even if you don't play on Pinn, we're rowdy but generally don't bite). Those channels are full of people willing to answer questions. Failing that, depending on your server, the Help Channel can be useful on my server it's dead but on others its helpful.

As of I16 there is a third requirement. For at least one Day Job Badge, there is a level requirement before it will be granted. You can earn credit, but you won't get the badge. This is the Vanguard base Day Job, and it prevents people from earning Vanguard Merits before 35.

I don't believe you. I think you're fibbing.

The two are mutually exclusive. They removed pathing and allowed stacking because they weren't going to get around to fixing base raiding anytime soon. They've specifically said it was a stopgap. If you want one, be prepared to lose the other.

I think your thread is lacklustre and could do with a bit of a revamp.

In other words, it is completely USELESS to post for the devs and say fix it! do more! make it better! That's not feedback, it's demands.

Tell them what you like, tell them what you don't like. Be Specific and detailed.

If/until they disallow the -1 setting from Master runs, this will sadly not be the case. I find the coolness of the badges lessened by the fact there's no way to know if someone did it on Easy mode or not.

If I'm disregarding what you say, it's only because you're not paying close enough attention to what you've been told. You are under the mistaken impression that just engineering one pool and using the existing poses is somehow easier and therefore faster. No one has to be an expert to tell you that's wrong. We're not guessing. It's an obvious fact based on things we've been told.

The main task for allowing pools to be customized is an engineering one. That means if you do it for Flight you do it for all pools. That has very little to do with BaB and the FX crew. You keep harping that just doing Flight would be easier, just like before we had PC, people kept harping that just doing a few sets would be easy, and therefore should be done.

That's not how it works. Easy in terms of programming is a very different thing. In the world, it is easier just to chop enough wood for a fire tonight than it is to chop for the entire winter. In programming, it's often easier to revamp a system from the ground up, or make a batch addition that covers a lot of ground, than it is to go in and tweak a thing or two.

On top of that, you seem to confuse Easy with Taking the least time. Just doing the Flight Pool may be less man hours now, but they're man hours that would just have to be repeated when they go back and do all the other pools. The systems are interlinked, and doing a partial conversion isn't really an option.
