Master-Blade

I just earned it the other day, so I can confirm that it still works. This was on an old toon, so there is no telling how many I have killed in the past, but I only spent about an hour or so picking them off in the open zones when I finally decided to badge-hunt with this toon and finish off this badge.

What!? No Ginko!? lol. j.k

Aight well I'll be there, but I might pick my toons depending on what else get's signed up.

The OP is referring to the Baracuda Task Force. There isn't any Rescue/Kidnap NPC to bring anywhere.

As I recall, you have to click them in a certain order. Start with the one on the far left, and work your way to the right. If you click the wrong one, you'll get that message.

Same here. I have been having a lot of fun using the Grav power: [Wormhole].

It looks like you stealth-TPing a group of foes to a new location cause they are just walking around looking normal wherever you place them, but they are really Stunned when they get to the "other side". Once the stun wears off, they certainly start coming after you though. lol

Having the chose of only those 3, I'd probably go with the controller. It really depends on how well you solo, or how much you enjoy playing each of your toons, but the controller's pets and your debuffs look like the winning combination to me. That's not to say the others can't solo well.. I know they can.. but you're asking for an opinion, so there's my choice from those 3.

The other thing you might want to consider is their existing badges. You mention that you have been here for 5 months, but does that mean you first started 5 months before now, or that you tried it a while back and just came back for 5 months this time, or that your total subscribed time is only 5 months? The reason I ask is because there have been Anniversary badges given out to those logged in during certain time periods. Those are currently not possible to obtain, so any character that has one or more of those would be the ones to use.. if you were trying for as many as possible. This might not apply to you though, as I don't think we had any such badges since you started.

So with that information in mind.. none of your characters have any advantages over the others, so I might even suggest you start a new character altogether.. like a Tank or a Scrapper for your badge hunting instead. That might help you solo some of the harder stuff better, and will certainly help later on when possibly trying to farm for your damage badges. Those ATs have a higher Regeneration cap, so they wouldn't need an extra player/account to heal you repeatedly to make sure your farm works correctly.

As far as getting the healing badges, those can currently be done on any AT the same way, so I'm not considering that a factor. (I first got Empath at the old 1 billion requirement on my Katana/Regen Scrapper who has no heal-other-type powers. Just recently, I also got Empath on my Invul/Axe Tank as well. She has no heal-other-type powers either, and it took less than 3 days for me to earn my 400 rep for the required Gladiator, set up my Arena farm, and get all the badges while I was sleeping or at work. The 3 days also includes time I wasn't even farming.. when I was home and playing TFs or other activities.)

Just make sure that if you decide to make a new toon, that you do your best to get as many of the Halloween badges as you can right now, so you wont have to wait until next year.

After the maintenance, I had to re-log in again yesterday too, but since I did, It has remembered me just fine.

I agree with Flameshot.

I'm assuming you have the Recipe for the wings you want.. and all the appropriate salvage as well. If not.. you need to have everything, or it wont show on the table.

It should have been in the Invention category right above the Wand. If it's not there, then you probably don't have the recipe, or you are actually missing at least one of the pieces of salvage and have the "Hide recipes missing ingredient" option in the bottom-right corner of that window.

Open your Team window and make sure it does NOT say "Do not accept invites".

Try hiding from everything, then unhiding from everything again... just to be sure the preference resets the way you want it.

Start your own team and look for other people instead, and don't rely on others to pick you up.

Good luck.

I guess since everybody pretty much needs everything, we might as well just follow the linked Guide and maybe add in a couple badge missions where available as well.
