    The mission to get them takes at least 2 hours, longer for many others and it did work in [b][i]Live[/i][/b] all year round, since I now remember them being asked for and sold in the Market channel. Making them non-trade now in the EMU is understandable as they are a mission reward and only those doing the mission have earned them.

    Please turn them back on ;)

    I agree 100% with sneakys and Tootalls comments, it's just daft to have guns that fire certain times of the year.
    As the weapons whole purpose was [b]FUN[/b] why even consider switching them off anyway?
    Please let me shoot my fun toys again at my grouchy guild mate, as I sooooo miss his comments to me when I do hee hee hee :D

    The Robot is on Zweihander Planet in the water so I have heard...

    In [b]Live[/b] the Pumpkin Chucker & Eyeball Popper only worked one day which was Halloween, after that you could not shoot it anymore until the Halloween. On [b]Live[/b] for xmas they didn't have a chunker, they had Santa located in netural sectors handing out presents depending on your level would depend on the tech level of present you got, once you opened the present you would get any random item in the game including event items; one year I got a Lv. 2 String of Heart Shield on one character and a Lv. 3 Bobcat Beam that's what they should do this year imo.

    Not true the 4 Chunkers I owned on Orion server in live worked fine all year round and were also tradable items, I see no reason for them to function differently on other servers.

    I hardly ever play my pw now because of this.
    The thing that frustrates me most is not the 2 min timer now but the fact you can activate the skill and it consumes energy just to fail.
    Is it possible to set the cooldown on the skill to the 2 mins, so at least it does not suck away your energy and when it does activate you know it's going to work? it would make for planning how and when you use your sap much easier than trying to guess when perhaps your 2 mins are up.

    The first hit design actually makes KSing worse. Almost every other MMO uses this design and the griefing, KSing, etc, that comes from it is awful. WoW currently doesn't really have this problem since the majority of bosses are in instances. However if you ever played the game back when there was competition for mobs, outside of instances, you saw how bad that design can be. Ever play a hunter camping a spirit beast?

    At least with the % of damage done design, when another player attacks the same mob you have attacked, there is a chance of winning or you can bring friends to counter that player. With first hit you can have a single Jen hold a mob/spot indefinitely with almost zero chance of overtaking them. This gets much worse with one player being able to run mutiple accounts. In Live, at least on Galileo, there were competitions between guilds and groups to see who could get credit for a kill which is actually kind of fun and a nifty way for players to try to see what class, ammo type, weapon type, play style, does the most damage. With first hit design this all goes away.

    It is also important to note that Westwood tried the 'first hit' gets credit for for the killdesign for a short time in beta/live. It did not go well and there were way more ways to abuse the system and players did abuse it just because they could. Westwood finally decided that the only equitable solution, that actually put the power in players hands, was to set kill credit to most damage done. Asshats will always be asshats but at least with the current system you have a fighting chance.

    I have to disagree 100%.
    How does a jen hold a spot when everyones guns fire right away? you just have to be close enough.
    Your point on doing the most damage race is wrong. If a cl30 player is taking down a lvl35 boss for eg it takes him a while to kill because his weapons are at the right level but if a 150 swoops in and shoots it's all over in 1 hit, how is that fair?
    My experience with the 1st hit thing was it worked just fine and allowed me to finish quests etc on wow even when I had tards sit there just killing the quest npc just to stop others completing quests as they had nothing better to do other than try and spoil the game.
    But this is just my experience and don't feel theres a problem ingame as it is now.

    In dare I say it WOW whoever hit it first got the kill,it workes very well and also stops players accidently taking a kill.
    I personaly dont like the who does most damage thing as it can lead to how it was in live with the people with the best gear takes all the boss kills and thats not right.
    That all being said ive never yet come across anyone kill stealing in this game atm, if it's done, it's done by accident and everyone ive come across either takes it in turns, group up or just come back later. So don't really think it's a problem with the community as it stands.
    Just my own opinion.

    I have just finished a very Loooooonnnnng winding deadly road as PS doing the Agrippa missions stage I, II and III.
    This is just a quick Thank you to everyone that put up with my questions lol and begging for parts in the market channel.
    Byakhee thank you for breaking the monotony of the grind and coming up with such an insanely long set of misions hee hee hee.
    I managed to call you most names under the sun doing them but afterwards there was a massive sense of achievement and errrr ehem errr cough cough I was actually sorry to see the end once it came. " it was hard saying that bit ".
    I would like to thank my guild mate Michelle for having to put up with me sighing all the time in guild chat with frustration but most of all The people in game. Vaden, Pree, Redd, Blacklung, Kanis, Wolf, Aybesea, Lannister, Blckw1dow & Magoo this game has an awesome bunch of people.
    Byakhee you wanted a mission that couldn't be done alone and the list of names certainly proved you achieved what you wanted lol
    I'll shut up now I just wanted to say this game is epic and everyones input was greatly appreciated.
    Pestilennce :(

    This is why there are 3 people to speak to about tokens in the Bar of Arx Magister.
    Although hopefully ** fingers crossed ** their talk trees will soon become more relevant.

    you can obtain further tokens if you can get a gold token off any Progen player in game, take it to the respective NPC in arx magister and exchange it for 1 mission token.

    all progen players going through the token missions get a gold token at level 135. Some may not have figured out that this token is a means to trade a mission token to another player.

    ** progen only **

    I have already spent my 3 tokens from the lvl 50 hu and not sure if it's already too late now to put things right.

    Hi I have a lvl 53 PS and want to do the agrippa stuff but I'm a bit overwhelmed with it all lol.
    So far I have used 3 tokens from my lvl 50 hu on Sabane Nota doing the scan, crit target and prospect missions, was this the right thing to do or should I have spoken to another NPC for the grippa stuff?
    Can anyone tell me what I should do at the 75 hu as everything I have found so far has been written for PP's lol
    Hope you can help a very baffled progen lol
