Title: Question about Sentinel Plus and locked characters
Post by: Xieveral on October 02, 2012, 11:10:13 PM: My husband had a bunch of masterminds in his account but unfortunately it was inactive at the time of the closure announcement. I wanted to save his character data but the only way to access those characters would be through the beta or test servers.

Would data saved from the beta/test server be usable?

I would assume because of the Paragon marked being absolutely free there that the beta version of a character would be "unfair"

Yes, I transferred over my mastermind to test and retrieved him that way.

I don't know how to access test and the instructions for getting the test server confused me (not thinking clearly maybe...)

EDIT: Beta was a no-go ><

So, if you're unsubscribed to the game and don't have Tier 5 filled on Beta, you won't have access to Controllers or Masterminds there either.

Sorry :<

Sentinel + works on test now? I thought it was still actual game only, per this post: http://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php/topic,5404.msg56084.html#msg56084

I told him to download Sentinel + Extractor so he could save all his chars from either Live servers or Beta, will he be able to do so?
