    Just tested this out for you on my level 50 MM. Settings at +0/x8, didn't see any bosses. Double checked my boss setting, saw that it was on "does not", fixed that, reset the mission, went back in and still not a single boss to be found.

    So, it's not just you.

    Nope, you can be unique just like everybody else no matter what your sig says!

    Did you totally miss back on that thread where I said I was stealing it for my sig? You should keep it. Besides, I only post on this forum and it's a good line that should be spread elsewhere too

    It took me 2 1/2 years to get my first 50, and an additional 8 months for my second. My first villain 50 took 3 years. I suck
  9. It's been a while since I've done this mission, but I seem to recall there being turrets on the wall closest to the bog where all the warwolves spawn.

    Possible typo?

    They're just fancy names for mutation and tech enhancements.

  13. I used to be a big supporter of the "influence isn't money" argument, but after I saw some Hellions gambling in Port Oakes I changed my mind:

    "Ha! I win again! Now you owe me even MORE influence!"

    He might have said infamy, but the meaning is crystal clear.

    It is the amount of people to team with. You don't have a problem, because of: time in game, friends, globals.

    But do a /hide and see how many random team invites ya get?

    Or.... go to a new server where your Global isn't a known player.... what happens?

    Yes..... teaming is easy if ya know the channels and have the Globals.... but for those that don't.... it can be rather tuff.

    The amount of people available isn't the problem because you only need ONE OTHER PERSON to make a team. And I have gotten random invites while on /hidesearch, especially when I hang out in a populated area. This is why I don't hang out in populated areas.

    So.... the 8-10 that team with you that are hidden.... don't wanna team with the rest of us. True? They are hidden, arent they?

    BC
    No, they just don't want to be hit with blind invites, requests for PL, and people who don't read search comments.

    Oh, and goobers. None of us like goobers.

    No, I'm just smart about teaming. 80% is an arbitrary number, just like your 50%. It could also be 20%. My point was that -we can't know- how many people are on hide.

    However, of the people I play with regularly, about 8 of 10 are on perma-/hidesearch, so based on my personal experience, 80% isn't out of the question. I myself am on perma-/hidesearch.

    Why? I don't have a problem finding teams.
  17. You can't just arbitrarily choose a percentage and call it the number of hidden people. For all you know, the number is closer to 80-90%
  18. Seeing as how it's a double XP AND reactivation weekend, I'm going to stay off the servers.

    And also this. Between my husband and I, we have accounts at 6, 15, 24, 33, 36 and 39 months. Veteran badges just don't mean anything on their own. It's the competency of the player that matters. I look at bios more than badges.

    That's what I meant by we can't answer the question. It doesn't specifically mention anything about how Recluse looks at Paragon City, or how he would feel about a squad of Arachnos agents going over there and beating people to a pulp. We can only assume.

    Since the link in Manti's sig is broken, here's the link to the thread where you ask canon questions.

    I didn't see anything in there saying that. I guess in this case we really can't answer this question. I still suggest the Canon Fodder thread for clarification on behaviors.
  24. From Know Your Adversary:

    Quote:
    While these Arachnos agents will ignore minor infractions, major crimes draw immediate action. In the eyes of Lord Recluse, anyone reckless enough to commit murder, grand larceny, or acts of mass destruction is either uncontrollable or powerful enough that he wants to control them directly.

    Woe to the Arachnos agent that crosses the line far enough to bring the dreaded Arachnos Arbiters into the matter.
    It sounds to me like your team definitely crossed the line, and would have swift retribution, far greater than simply getting "chewed out".

    Have you looked over the Canon Fodder thread? Maybe thought about getting some clarification from Manti?
