    I see the devs still have no idea what to do with bases.
    I think they are afraid of messing with what people have already in place.

    Cheers,

    I very much miss being able to do access it in bases and missions.

    Now I tend to go to a university to use /vault and /ah to do my crafting.

    Odds are they will need to have a patch update for the new powerset to be available next Tuesday. I wouldn't recommend staying up late for it.

    Am I right in guessing that the VIP subscription is more or less equivalent to pre-F2P subscribed game content? That is, full access to Inventions and ATs and such?

    I also bought Going Rogue and a couple of the Booster Packs, so I assume I have access to those as well?
    If you sub things are pretty much the same as it ever was but vet rewards have been replaced by reward tokens http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Reward_Token

    and we get 400 or 550 paragon points each month depending on our tier level (below 8 is 400) and there are a lot of things you can buy with the paragon points at the market http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Paragon_Market

    What I find amusing is that I've today read two of his posts in this thread that tell people to take their points to another thread while this one about scrappers he continues to hijack over tankers...

    I'ma gobble up some of those discount server slots.
    More slots would be ridiculously useful right now, and even if I re-sub it's something you can never have enough of.
    Careful. I think at Premium only 36 of the 48 are available.

    When it comes to major releases, we're going to try letting you all know they're coming a week in advance and pair that with Paragon Market sales that would be appropriate to prep for your new characters (such as the character slots being 50% off this week.) We will, of course, have items featured next week that compliment Staff Fighting.



    Pfft...you kids and your round Earth!
    Marketing needs to buy you lunch for doing their work for them. "Cheaper slots now for new staff fighters next week!"

    GOOD MORNING.
    Very pleased but not as pleased as if I could get my greedy little fingers on it today.

    I know but they still release a production patch note usually around noon Eastern time after patches. That's all I meant.

  14. the patch was also so enable the ability to buy enhancement converters with alignment, astral and empyrean merits.

    I imagine the patch notes will be up in 3 or so hours.

    Yeah... but some were beyond hopeful. Hopeful is fine. Hopeful doesn't make you rant in the forums every week when it doesn't happen to the point where Zwill has to make a damage control post.
    Search is definitely the way to go. I think I recommended it to Nethergoat in his returning player thread last week because any other way is just too slow.

    I am such a horrible leech I let people tell me what is up and what is for sale here and on paragon wiki before I go look myself to get them.

    So to all of those who do this for me, I tip my cap.

    Hopeful! I was hopeful! (and delusional)

    I hate the featured items page being first up vs the sale items.
    I hate the store setup. I spend as little time as possible in it.

    It wouldn't be the first time.

    Shall we continue to blur the lines more?

    Should we name them brankers or trutes?

    Strangely enough another super MMO has had staff fighting since its launch without all this kind of nonsense.

    Not yet (staffs). Probably not tomorrow either. There's a thread around here Zwill started to try to calm us down last week.

    DA is indeed sweet for me.

    First things I can think of:
    Super packs and with them AT enhancments among other goodies
    Darkness powers for Dominators and controllers
    Beast Mastery (new MM Purchasable primary)
    New Dark Astoria
