  1. I will be 34 for next session! Sure as hell not leaving 1K to level sitting like that.

    Don't know WHAT THE HELL happened; I apparently lost my connection to everything NCSoft related and a handful of other, random sites off and on last night. Game would tell me there were no mapservers and/or can't connect to login server. I can understand losing connection to mapservers, sure, but being told there were none? Don't you lie to me, machine!

    I'm not the only one!

    I'm sorry I level with style. Pretty pink style.
  8. The only way to make [Overcharge] more badass is if a shoulder-mounted cannon popped up to fire it off and eradicate entire groups.

    Srsly, if you didn't make a beamer for this run....reroll NOW.

    Voo just can't stop! And to think I turned off xp on Eternal Albert when I ran a Posi with him the other week.
    I've yet to log into the character outside of an Iso session yet.....

    EDIT: If you look at the post above by OneFrigidWitch, this seems to be what it it is doing. And it looks like they are attempting to fix it by correcting the erroneously awarded Reward Tokens by not awarding one each month until the account has the correct number.
    This is what they are claiming and stating those accounts will be "caught up" with what they really should have had at launch. So if you started out with more than you should have (minus buying points), you won't receive anymore until the balance is even.

    However, I don't ever recall anyone being more than 1, maybe 2, *weeks* ahead of their vet time. Being over X threshold to account as 1 full month, and in that case 4?!?!, just seems to add to the really awful implementation for all of this.
  14. According to below, the only Token for "September" should have been for the freebie everyone got at Freedom launch time. Launch day is the starting "time" for when these new calculations began, so anything with the headstart shouldn't count, correct? There shouldn't be any rounding of any kind going on, but I'm pretty sure there is. While the math matches what they are saying, I'm baffled how some could have gotten 39, and sometimes 40+, at launch time while having the same (if not LESS) subscribed time as myself without purchasing extra points, which on at least 2 accounts, was not the case.

    I'm curious how the last paragraph could even be said with a straight face.

    I am showing that your account has the appropriate number of Paragon Reward Tokens. Having an active account since the original launch of City of heroes would grant you 29 tokens for your past Veteran Rewards, 7 tokens for your past years, and one for your retail account. Every account also receives a free token, so your total should have been 38 tokens.

    The Paragon Reward system began with the launch of City of Heroes Freedom. As such, the calculations began on launch day. Though the scheduling is related to the old Veteran Reward system, it is not necessarily based on your billing date. This would be the 39th token you received in October.
  15. Target level should be 31......

    So I don't get accused of cheating still

    Unfortunately, no. He was there ruining perfect pulls or KBing everything out of the killing zone. Was just like old times.

    I guess we had a session. Wasn't many on and a lot dropped off very early. I think most didn't have it in them without their inspirational leader there to inspire and console them.

    7 for yearly anniversay
    1 for free, everyone gets one
    1 for having a retail account
    and 1 for September

    That is how many I got as well. I have yet to get any more though and also have a support ticket that is not making any headway at all that I can tell.
    Only 38 for me at launch. Again, some are getting 39 without additional purchases and others only 38 (for those that have been here "forever").

    I'm not sure what annoys me more: the inconsistent dates used for all of these "perks" or the inconsistent implementation of made up criteria

    But seriously, once they rolled back the Emp nerf of BAF/Lam, and the Emp gating of the new powers, this thread had served it's purpose. Why not devote this thread to the paranoid ravings of a madman... and VALIS?
    He was definitely pretentious and relatively ostentatious, but I wouldn't say a madman............

    So he's more along the lines of Bombadil? Or is it because the vast majority of that drivel is overly boring as a whole, poorly expressed in part, or requires big names / big explosions to make it passable as interesting?

    (Honestly, I'm just jealous Mental gave away internets to you and he's never even given me a thumbs up )
  23. I am absolutely finished with First Ward for#$#@%$@#%@ever. Beyond the trouble with syncing for various reasons, the entirety of the arcs overdid the "ambushes" constantly, overdid the traveling across the zone for fedexes and talking, overdid the psy attacks in various missions, and did I mention the talking? I'm pretty sure my contacts are still rambling on.

    The most enjoyable part over the *last few weeks* was last night in the last mission; SNIPE! on the EB on top of a statue, to watch her get knocked back between two parts of the statue and the rest of the team couldn't attack her for awhile. Didn't ever notice other mobs getting KB'd by my snipe before. But I laughed. And then I found the hole to kick her *** all by myself.

    I say we entice the Hamidon to invade First Ward and send it back to oblivion and we pretend it never existed.
