| Game Features and such... |
|
|
|
Just thought I would throw out a list of things I have noticed in-game, but have not seen a post on. ( I'm A little slow to notice such things so bear with me, Old Guy here. )
1. Members regardless of level now earn both Influence and Prestige when in SG Mode. This warranted a change in the Mutant Marine Corp's MOTD. I didn't notice it till I12 was live for a full week and regularly play in SG Mode, even on my high level toons. No exuses now SLACKERS!
2. SG Base Auto-Doc/Tree of Life will purchase both Recipes and All Forms of Salvage. Must have been asleep at the wheel to have missed this if it has always been so. Pays the same rates as any normal store, will not however purchase enhancements.
3. New Power Tray custom Layouts, kept noticing the little plus sign next to my recipes but didn't realize what it was for till I clicked on it. Ended up with about 6 Tray 1s on my screen, then it took a while to get rid of them, lol. Nice feature to be able to reshape them, worthy of some experimentation. Will now be able to separate your toggles and click powers much more easily.
Hope this was useful to someone

This was a "popular demand" thing. You earn just as much prestige as before, but you earn 1/2 (at level 50 anyway) of the influence you would earn out of SG mode. So you still gain more Influence if you're out of SG mode, but it's not as painful.

I didn't notice that one, but that's a great change!

Love love love them. I keep all my toggles on a seperate little "bubble" near my enhancement bar. It's SO handy especially for higher levels where the 3 trays just isn't enough!

I think all of this was in the release notes, not in plain sight but there. I read the notes, sometimes twice, while the issue loads.
Yes, I'm a speed reading geek :)

This has been around as long as Inventions has been in the game. It's a very nice feature if you've got a lot of useless recipes to unload.

Those are the tech and arcane versions of the inspiration vendor. You unlock it by earning the first SG healing badge. It can be placed in any but the smallest of medical rooms.
At first, these only sell Respite and Catch a Breath. The second healing badge unlocks an auxiliary item which allows these inspiration vendors to sell other inspirations.

Thanks for the heads up LordX. I need to see where I am at with those. Are those tracked anywhere that I can see?

Under your badge window there's a button at the bottom that says "Supergroup Badges" There are beacons under exploration and items for the base under Achievements.

Another interesting note (this is not a new feature, but intensely helpful to you TF and Trail junkies)...your base Auto-Doc/Tree Of Life will sell those important blues and greens to you during an active Trial/TF and with the new three-into-one converter ability, you have unlimited (as long as you have enough prestige) inspirations, even if you have none in base storage or no inspiration storage at all!

The Auto-Doc/Tree of Life ( or a replacement device ) can also end up selling Additional kinds of Inspirations after you acheive the 2nd SG Healing Badge. This one is tough being that our SG, after almost 3 Years in existance, has not got there yet, and the 1st Badge came pretty quick. Guess it's time to roll a few Defenders or Trollers to spam heals in the Hollows, lol.

Get a high level Empath.
Run a L50 newsie mission solo.
Get to a point where there's only 1 or 2 minions left.
Put Healing Aura on Auto.
Turn down speakers.
Go to bed.

Is this a tactic for the damage badges?

Thinking about it, I think that tactic will only do the damage badge. The healing badge is for healing OTHERS. So you might need to use a second account if you have one.

Healing badges are for all HP healed back. My spine/regen has a healing badge just from reconstruction/dull pain usage, IIRC. I may be wrong, however.

To quote the badge text :
| QUOTE | | A supergroup earns this badge by Healing 25,000,000 points of Damage. This is the second SG Healing badge. |
Further investigation of the O.F. reveals:
| QUOTE | | It is not all healing,it is heal others. |
Also, the badge progress bar for the badge is bugged, and there seems to have been issues with some users in the past of the auxiliary item attaching, but I think it is seriously bad base design and management of controls/power levels (clicky for base guide).
All and all, it is a pretty cool item as not only does it boost your Autodoc by enhancing what inspirations it sells, it also improves the way your toons rez in the base by boosting your reclamator's healing abilities by 10%. Before the questions are asked...the robosurgery needs 20 power and 10 control and attach to a reclaimator. (the magic version is called the Spirit Signal and attaches to a Ressurection Circle same power/control useage).
