    H versus V

    I have 3 questions:

    1. In the AE, the missions created on one side(hero/villain) can be accessed on the other side, right? I just have to key in the mission id, right?

    2. Can money be transferred from the Hero side to the Villian Side in the cooperative zones? I'm trying to funnel money to my other characters on my account.

    3. Can coalitions be created between hero and villain supergroups? I want to create a coalition between my hero and villain supergroups.

    Thanks.

    I fixed them.
  3. Over Memorial day weekend, I planned and played some of the CoH Trials/Strike Forces. Some of these trials were outrageously long.
    Simply, they blew away my original gaming schedule.

    I'm planning 2 more events for July 4th and Labor day but I want to play on the Villian side on one of them. Does anyone know how long these trials are? Also, when you agree to a Trial/Strikeforce you can logoff and come back later that night or the next day, right? Just curious, how long will the system hold the team information? It would be very nice to be able to plan breaks of an hour or so for regular people who can't play continuously because they have to cook breakfast/lunch/dinner, massage the kids, eat, etc.

    I play with the maximum number of members at 8.
    I need a rough estimate of the game time needed.

    CoV Strike Force Name
    The Beast Beneath the Mountain
    Pirates of the Sky
    The Temple of the Waters
    The Spider Weaves his Web
    The 5th Column Overthrow
    The Crystal of Serafina
    Time's Arrow
    Lord Recluse's Strike Force
    The Lady Grey Strike Force
    Thus Spoke the Reichsman
    Trading Places
    The Abyss


    CoH Trial Name - How much time is ACTUALLY needed to complete these trials?

    Firebase Zulu Trial - I started this trial at 10pm and we played until sheer exhaustion until roughly 6am. We got to a mission were you had to activate 4 computers and the 4th user feel asleep at her terminal. We waited, and tried to activate the computers with 3 users, from 4:30am-7am for her to wake up.

    Abandoned Sewers Trial -We cut corners everywhere we could to get this one done....it was fun but we still weren't able to beat the clock. We made lots of mistakes. We started at 4pm and went to 8pm. I was the healer in this trial and I worked my @$$ off! The team I had refused to load up on awakens or go to the hospital so I was Tping, rezing, cauterizing, etc. I was so tired afterwards I canceled the next three events. Also, I contemplated the meaning of life for my Gravity Controller.

    Eden - Didn't even get to do this one because of the runover from the Sewers TF. I booked an 1/2 to 1 hour but I couldn't find a leader in the 39-41 level to run this.

    Hamidon Raid - Aborted Trial, I heard this requires 6 hours and is like the RWZ Raid but you really need teams to go at the target. I saw someone recruiting teams for this on one of the channels and decided to pass on this one.

    Rikti Warzone Raid - This was another aborted Trial. I've done this in the past but I have never successfully completed it. I can get as far as the mothership but we fight and fight and fight and never break into ship.

    I mean I can pay $9.99 and apply this power to my account, right :-)
  5. My hero has these tp powers. Foe TP, Friend TP and Self-TP.

    My villain has these tp powers. Foe TP, Friend TP and Team TP.

    The TP Foe(200ft) and TP Friend(zonewide) are awesome. I can reach long distances with these. But self-TP is horrible. I have only line of sight capabilities(300ft). I saw a user come from another zone and TP right to the Mission location. Was I seeing things?

    Here's my question. Is it possible to self-TP farther than 300ft/Line of sight? Can I self-tp by just selecting on the map?
  6. I'm waiting on some others to provide me with inputs..AE stuff.
  7. This post will be updated as I get more information. If interested, please reply with character name, and event(s) and I'll send you an invite 10-15 minutes before the event(s).

    The Shiva Strike is really an individual thing. You can be on a team, but the only thing that counts is what the individual does.

    Siren's Call has the Battle for Siren's Call. There will be a hotspot that will show up on the map. At the hotspot, Arachnos and Longbow groups will stare at each other for a long time, and then finally rush each other and fight. Heroes/Villains can get involved and reduce the delay before the fight and even turn the tide of battle, depending upon their skill. Each of these battles is worth 100 points to the player on the winning side and these points to purchase a few items. These battles will also, very slowly, shift control of the zone to one side or the other, allowing the winning side to be able to purchase temp powers from the zone vendor.

    Warburg, see the Missile Launch Mission.

    Recluse's Victory, see here.

    Thanks. The wiki links are useful but the duration and team sizing is what I really need. Have you played these missions?
  9. Has anyone attempted these PvP events:

    Bloody Bay - Shiva Strike Mission
    Siren's Call - ?
    Warburg - Missile Launch Mission
    Recluse Victory - Temporal Anchors

    How long are these TFs/missions and how many people can be on a team?
    Also, is there a mission/TF in Siren's Call?

    To be quite clear "You still need someone in range of it, 39-41, to be the team leader to start the Trial…". This is a bug. Normally, the leader would simply need to be level 39 or higher to start the trial.
    I replied to Rosa but the comment should been to you...thanks.

    That's why it's considered a bug.

    That said, the Eden Trial is one of my favorite things in the game, I recommned it. You just need to start it with a character between level 38-41.

    Thank you for clarifying your comments. I need to make sure I get a 38-41 Leader to lead this. :-)

    Feel free to give it a shot, but it's best to tag along with somebody who's done it first and observe what goes on.
    Thanks for your comments. I'll try to participate with someone before I run it for my event. :-)

    Done for speed, the Eden trial can be done in as few as 15-20 minutes. But that skips a lot of the enemies. Otherwise, plan for 60-90 minutes or so.
    What you described is not a bug.

    How long is this trial? 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, or 4 hours?

    Also, what's the bug?

    Storm Palace has no TF's or Trials

    Little tip about the Shard TF's though. They can take a significant amount of time, with Quarterfield being the longest (average time is 4-6 hours, but can take up to 8 or more with a mediocre team). The other three can be completed in 2-4 hours, depending on team makeup and familiarity with each TF.
    Thanks for your comments. This helps me with the planning.

    Up to date information can be found at Paragon Wiki.

    The 'Faultline Trial' was never implemented.

    The 'Hive Trial' is commonly known as the Hamidon Raid. It pretty much requires 50 people and a very specific mix of archetypes and powers. The level range is 45-50 but 50 is preferred.

    The Sewer Trial is still active, levels 38-40 (however, players higher than level 40 can join but they will be de-leveled (exemplared) to level 40 for the duration of the trial).
    How long does it take to play the Hive/Hamidon Raid? Estimate

    This is good information thank you for sharing this with me.
  18. Many people have given me the same advice as you have. The only reason I still read it is to see how the game has EVOLVED from the beginning. It's like looking at yourself when you were a kid. Thanks for your comments
  19. I'm planning online events for Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day.

    I need to confirm if these trials are still active:

    1.CoH
    Sewer Trial - I know this one is but it says minimum is 4 persons(wiki) but what's the maximum users that can join? The old Prima guide says 8 max users at level 36 or higher.

    Hive Trial - Is this one still active? I see on the Wiki it says minimum 4 persons but what's the maximum users that can join? The old Prima guide says 25 or more users at level 40/Prima Guide(or 45 Wiki) or higher.

    Shadow Shards/Storm Palace - The wiki is the only place I found information on this but it was minimum. I'm assuming this is still active because I've seen and been inside the Portal Corporation.

    But I would like to get this information(minimum Level accepted, Mini/max users allowed) about these Portal trials:

    Fireball Zulu
    Cascade Archipelago
    The Chantry
    Storm Palace

    2.Still SG only Trials(according to Prima Guide)?:

    Faultine - up to 25 users with minimum level of 19?
    Eden - minimum 8 users up to 50 users. Minimum leveled accepted is 38?

    If still only SG, can SG users that I have coalitions with participate?


    3.CoV

    The Abyss - The wiki was the only place I could get info on this. It says level 45 is required to enter but no details about min/max users.

    Cimerora - Is this accessible to villians and heroes? Also, what are the min/max users and minimum level accepted?

    Thanks for your comments in advance.
  20. The music on the Villian Side is so much better.
  21. I bought the Prima CoV guide shortly after I joined the CoH/CoV. I know the information is dated but I have a few questions:

    FYI, first. I've created a 50 character on the CoH side but now I'm over in the CoV side creating a new character that has reached LvL 16.

    1. Can Heroes go these places(Bloody Bay and Warburg) on the Villian side from CoH? Also, is Base Raiding active in these zones for CoV to CoH and Vice Versa?

    2. Also, where is the RWZ access in the CoV?
    3. The zone/area music in the CoV world is the same as in CoH World, right?
  22. What's going on? Are you doing updates?
  23. Is there a list of all of the mystic powers that can be granted? I keep getting these weird temporary powers....like hermit, death, love, etc.
    Can I get prestige by mystic powers? :-)
  24. Also, the weapons on the weblink you quoted aren't what I'm talking about. They are not on the Wiki
