Not that I'm gonna become a badge hunter or anything...yet. But, recently I respec'd Ti Gou with "super jump" instead of "super speed". One, it fits more with the character theme. And two, I got tired of running into walls at super speed.
Once I got the power, I was jumping around Faultline and decided to jump through a hoop. Just like the dogs do in the circus.
So, I'm thinking about adjusting the difficulty settings for at least my two highest-level characters. Probably to "Rugged" and "Vicious". That means in instanced missions, I'll face enemies one or two levels higher than me, though in numbers equivalent for a solo mission. I'll face "Bosses" instead of "Lieutenants".
It's not so much that I've gotten that good at the game, but I think I'll need more challenging opponents in order to get more XP.
I heartily approve. As your abilities expand and become stronger bosses become less of a challenge. They can still get you but it's not as as in earlier levels. As you are in the Faultline content you may have noticed the stray Elite Boss or five. They are still a challenge even for those prepared for and have defenses (or offenses) that counter them.

Thanks BrotherMan! I need to get over my hesitancy in chatting at you whenever I see you online. I've not encountered any missions for which I need help.
Though, Tian Shang Lung, had a particularly nasty encounter with The Lost on Mercy Island recently. Luckily, she has debt protection and was none the worse for wear. Same can't be said for The Lost, however.
Speaking of Tian Shang Lung, she recently acquired eight merit points and has no idea what to get for herself. The Merit Vendor has such pretty shiny things for sale.
While researching Merit Rewards on Paragon Wiki, I discovered that the Positron TF is suitable for a duo. Ti Gou is very interested. Very interested.
BTW: I submitted an application over at Guardians of the Golden Age for Dog O'War, Mr JJ Jingles, Kassai and the Crimson Bantam. Wish me luck!
Any of your characters are welcome in the Paragons – a canon oriented supergroup with a golden/silver age feel. I have one ‘modern’ themed character here and one canon-linked character. There is no interview or official induction type thing to join.
I've just submitted an application to The Paragons. Probably want to play with The Loyal Guardsmen characters, particularly Ti Gou. And Shan Lau Hu (Lightning Tiger).

I look for you when I expect to be on a team. A lot of the time I'm just puttering around solo.

Old joke: If you find them are they still Lost? Amirite?

I recommend saving them for the really big shinies.

Possible, yes. But consider that the wiki also states:
Even if one is level capped to level 14, this Task Force is a pain in the ass. Hero side it is second only to the Augustine Task Force in length of time to accomplish.

Prepare for a Festivus Miracle!
I can put in a good word.

I think I'm supposed to know what those are but I don't recall how I found out. At least, that's the in-world explanation I'm willing to let loose.
If I haven't yet, I recommend Web of Arachnos and The Freedom Phalanx as light reading material. Not imperative to your adventures in Paragon but some good back story on canon characters.
For those times when you can't get into the game but want to pretend you can! Also, helps you decide before hand what powers are available at what level and what they do. (Requires the .NET 2.0 framework to be installed.)
The Dauntless Reverie (and the evil sister villain group Anathema) is a magic themed group. As it is explained at the site, you don’t have to claim a magic origin, but having some aspect of magic, magery, mysticism or whatever is required. I’ve known a couple of people in this group since almost day 1 and I used to associate serious role play business with the name. I’ve only recently broken in with this crowd and my “intimidation” was unfounded. They are, however, more serious than others (but not strictly draconian) about being in character. The Daunt- or Athem- nights can be all rp or teaming and sometimes both.
Kassai has submitted her application to the Dauntless.
As far as I know that is totally your doing. And there is no reason to be nervous. They promised me they'd be gentle.
I was totally anxious for my interview too; expecting something akin to a job interview with multiple interrogators and what-have-you. There'll be one inquisitrix and n number of hangers-on. It was one of the best times I've had role playing. So that's my advice. Relax, have fun and let your character be herself.
