Level 50 emotes
they are only buyable at lvl 50 but once you have bought them, you can unlock them on all your toons regardless if they are 50 or not, the only thing that i know of thats unlockable for use only 50s is the ascension armor

But still... where do you buy them? I don't see it an the market system either. Perhaps with Astral Merits? Just checked, yep! Astral Merits.
Paragon City Search And Rescue
The Mentor Project
All I was saying, is I wish they were available to everyone for purchase, not just level 50s.

When the incarnate system first started people asked Positron what are we supposed to do with these Astral and Empyrean merits besides buying threads .. He promised, at that time, that eventually there would be more and then the Astral and Empyrean stores arrived in Ouroborus.
The store allows us to purchase certain emotes, costume pieces and now even Rare or very Rare recipes. They are perks for having attained level 50 and for participating in the incarnate trials. Now the new signature arcs do award vips threads or one astral merit so I suppose if done often enough a player could buy some of the things from the Astral store without doing trials but they STILL need to be a 50 level.
As mentioned once purchased each item is available to every character on every server that player has, except the acention armor which is intended for 50 levels only. Even then a 2 level will still have an email showing that each of those pieces of armor are available they simply can't claim them until they attain 50. As for everything else.. a 1 level in the tutorial can claim their copy.
We are not talking any major POWER or even a complete costume, that armor aside, just a few small trinkets that Posi and NC Soft gave us as a reward for completing a few trials. Now there are quite a few of these things and a LOT of players have run 2, 3 and now even 4 trials a day to gain access to these small goodies. Some how I don't think they'd be too happy to discover suddenly the same thing they, at that point, wasted emps and astrals on was now available to anyone with a credit card and access to the on line store. Then again if things go the way they normally seem to .. six months from now because some players complained all of it will be available at the market.

Wicked_Wendy, I agree with you. There are some things that should only be earned as a 50 as specific rewards, and should not be made buyable. I was only referring to these 2 emotes. (The 'tantrum' and 'ghoul stance' emotes are good examples. You earn these by finishing a mission...but they are not specific to level 50s.) I am curious why swoon/collapse have to be so exclusive? I'd love to see them either able to be purchased, or as rewards at the end of a mission that is accessable to all.

LOL I have no idea to be honest other than to speculate that they promised to give us something to spend incarnate merits on and those were a part of what they came up with. I'll be honest I picked them up but rarely use either.. and then they turned right around and literally gave away Face Palm for free.. all I had to do was go to Face book and then enter the code they gave me. And I love using that one.. go figure!
I tend to agree .. the costume pieces . especially the Ascention ones should stay locked. Why they added emotes that they had to know every person in game would want after they saw them I have no idea. OKAY thats an exagerating I am sure some people could care less about emotes.
Wendy's secret.. Shhhh don't tell anyone. I think the ascention armor sucks and its the only thing left in the emp store I haven't purchased and I have no intention of wasting emps on it. HEY I can save those and buy PURPLE recipes! who cares about glowy armor!

Why are collapse/swoon emotes only available to level 50 toons? Is this WAI? Why aren't they buyable in the market like others? I'd sure love to see that happen, and would like to know if anyone else feels the same.
