    Salvage drop

    If Invention Salvage was dropping for her then it was a bug. Invention Salvage isn't supposed to drop without an invention license, being tier 7, or being VIP. There was a bug recently where sometimes you could get two Invention Salvage drops from a single kill. This is probably what was giving her the salvage drops.

    The same with one of the new lowbie mission arcs. The mission tells you to go to Croatoa, but you can hit the Steel one as well.
  3. Also remember that presents inspirations can easily cap you while on a team since they're equal to a large inspiration per friendly within 20'. They're dirt cheap on the market right now and the only hard part if figuring out which is the one you want. But once you do, you can use a bind or macro to use a specific one, see the wiki page for the commands.

    It lasts as long as you have the IO slotted and are no more than 3 levels below the level of the IO.

    I did do that one year, but then I realized that they really don't cost all that much and it was just easier to buy them as needed.

    Mouse inverted

    Might be this patch (Sept 13, 2011)

    "Mouse Movement has been renamed Invert Mouse to be easier to understand to new players.

    The default setting for Mouse Movement has been switched to "Inverted". New characters will have this setting by default, existing characters will be unaffected."

    Alignment Merits

    This is incorrect. When you change from Vigilante/Rogue to Hero/Villain, you gain the countdown and eventually the morality power. But you will not be able to get hero/villain merits from SSA until you reconfirm your Hero/Villain alignment as of the 2011-10-19 patch.

    That is what makes me wonder if they are using the same sliding Level scale as the Invasion mobs.
    I can't think of a single mission that has an enemy that scales the same way as do GMs/Raid enemies. They always have a level that's set by level/difficutly settings of the mission holder.

    If you are hero/villain, the first is correct. If you are rogue/vigilante and changed to a hero/villain, you would need to run through the tips again.

    And would like a clarification of Bonus first time. Does that mean I could run each SSA twice in the 1st week and get an A merit, or is it once per week?
    You could run all 4 of the SSAs and get a hero merit for each. Then you could run any one of the four and get another hero merit. Next week and from then on, it's any SSA once per week for one hero merit.

    edit: Additionally, you could pick up the other rewards (10 threads, astral merit, bonus reward merits) one per week as well. So you run any 4 SSAs and pick up 1 hero/villain merit, 10 threads, 1 astral merit, and bonus reward merits each week.
  9. Why do you need a Robotic Fabricator? Base raids are inactive so the Robotic Fabricator doesn't actually do anything. The only reason to build one is because you like how it looks.

    They're also showing up in IP. Not all of them are the Marcone type, just some of them.

    Obligatory link.

    Actually, ED starts kicking in at 70% for Schedule A, even more at 90%, and smacks down hard at 100% or more.
  12. I doubt it's usable in the trial though.
  13. Dang, I missed the fun on the one day I didn't log in.

    Software Version 0.9.4q

    The previous version wasn't working anymore due to major changes in the way data was stored in the game, or something like that.

    I just tested it. Yes, you can run it and export a build without having to login.

    What page are you looking at, because I see all those 5-9 stuff on the Category:Hero Contacts Level 5-9 page

    I know a bunch of that is still available. I did some of it recently when Street Justice came out.

    Thanks for the info, it's good to know.

    The easiest thing to do would be wait and see what works for you under premium and what doesn't. Spend them on things like licenses or unlocks you might feel the need for, or for character slots.
  21. To be more specific, you can't change it. Only a mod can.

  23. I would venture a guess that it might have been possible to grief with it, like placing it on top of the Heavy control panels in RV.
