Anyone noticed if the raptor pack vendor is in the shard on the new servers? I started villain and the grandville one was missing. Didn't want to go through what VV described on my hero to find the blue one missing too so i just ninja ran til i could do the atlas bank.

Haven't checked, been busy putting up with the server restarts trying to get to 50 so that I can safely explore the bulk of the zones again.

Level up six levels in AE, spin thu radios to get next safeguard mission queed fo later, AE six more levels repeat until 50... :)

They can legally cry foul whether money's taken or not. I'm choosing to take their not having cried foul yet as a sign they don't want to throw money at a whack-a-mole and are taking the smart route with TonyV.

They're all CoX private servers from CoX: Homecoming!  All 4 are greyed out, but in the server list now.   8)

Ya they must have just added those.  Login servers are down currently but that should help with the 2000+ Que we saw yesterday haha.

You are correct, they can.  But the case becomes much stronger if they get wind  of money being transacted and the server admins haven't balanced the books properly to show that funds only go to the servers and not their pockets

What's funny is that while playing I was leaving a radio Mish, instantly kicked to login screen, found myself in queue of over 1000,  and half seriously asked on discord....."so about those new shards....."

I may roll one or two on the new servers, but I am not ready to go berzerk with alt-itis. Also with what appears to be  1000 slots per server.... well there goes 100 for my lost legends.....no must fight the urge.....must....fight...it...

You're not going for the 1000 alts, Sin'?

Eiko only just reached level 24 today, which is the level at which Masterminds actually become Masterminds. So my Alt-itis is well-controlled, only 4 low-level characters aside.

Someone was just saying in the discord once you hit 50, you keep leveling.  You just don't receive levels anymore.  So you will get rezzed from it like when you would level, as well as the Full Inspiration you get.  But you don't actually level past 50.  AFAIK no badge is needed - you just naturally do it.

Yes I noticed this on a test server. After level 50, the progress bar was still increasing. I was a bit puzzled about that. I don't remember the game being like that.

I haven't played today -- those multi-hour queues are an arch-foe I can't defeat.

It wasn't. But it could be useful for accumulation and tracking payoff of character debt for the debt badges.

So want to, but will not yet do so.

Log in queues
Servers unstable
Serves could be wiped, not likely but possible.
Ncsoft finally drops the heavy end of the hammer on this whole thing

I am trying to wait until we hear f om TonyV about the community server project plus the "servers for everyone" code package.

My goals

1. A server of my own even if only I am the one to use it
2. Spend as many hours or days as needed on my personal server to restore my lost legends from backups.
3. Play on the community servers if TonyV succeeds
4. Hopefully on the community server to restore some or all my lost legends via sentinel

My ultimate goal: to give Ncsoft the giant middle finger they gave us when they killed CoH

Azrael.

Raising the cap would have to be compensated by giving corresponding threats of similar power level..

If a character goes to level 55 and is level shifted from their incarnate powers they could move thru incarnate trials with minimum trouble

The level cap should never be raised. That's so anti-city of heroes. Just go play WoW if you want to get stuck in an endless loop of power creep and dated content.
