    I actually gave him 135 million and a crafted level 28 Miracle unique.

    No he didn't. I asked in the PA channel if anyone wanted a bunch of money and that miracle. CT was the one who said yeah. I had been planning to give away most of the stuff I am not using. If you are on sometime this weekend I may be able to swing 50 for you.

    So yeah, the shields are pretty sweet. Started a brute and got him to level 8 last night.

    I did miss my chance to make a leveling pact with my friend though. By the time I realized it, I was level 6. :(

    Leveling pact:

    We started a group a couple days ago...about 8 of us, and we all paired up. A couple of us are "in transit" but being in a leveling pact, what does it matter. A buddy gets to level three and the game tells him that he will no longer be able to level until his pact partner catches up and that all xp will go into a pool.
    My understanding was that even if one of the partners weren't online that the other who was would still be able to level but get xp at a reduced rate. Is this not how it works?
    Can someone give me the mechanics on how this actually works?
    I can't get to the CoH official forums.

    I assume there is a limited level in which you can create a leveling pact?

    And the blue colour in my xp bar is 2x xp correct?

    I thought so, apparently it's only 1.5. So it's not QUITE free experience.

    Also everyone got mad at me last night because the devs took it upon themselves to give me ten free bars.

    Wait, ooh, that would be terribly stupid.
    Your understanding is my understanding, similar to what LOTRO has.

    I read the entire patch notes for i13 and I'm just not feeling it. I knew it was going to be a content light patch since Architect was cut but yeeesh. There are some wonderful changes but they are mostly quality of life, which is great but not much of an incentive to bring me back. Plus Defender's were ignored once again. I'm going to play for the free weekend and see if anything grabs me. Too bad base PvP and IoP missed this issue. :(

    Maybe it's a training thing? You can keep getting xp, but can't be level 20 if the other guy is only trained to 3?

    After doing some research on the official forums (is it just me or have the average posters there become dumber?) it looks like this whole leveling pact thing isn't done in real time. It only updates the split experience each time you zone. Here...
    Once you zone, you get the exp. It goes into a pool and won't award it for a while. It's kind of weird, but it does work in the long run. I was doing missions and it would stop awarding exp, but after I zoned I'd get 7-15 bars of exp all at once.

    I still don't see a solid answer about being able to level past your pact. Maybe your partner has to log on and level up before it lets you go further? I don't know, that would be retarded since you normally continue to gain experience even if you don't train into your next level.

    Then it's decisions in both games:
    Which do I level up? 65 Death Knight or 71 Warrior?
    Shield tank or work on my 2nd build for my 50 ill/rad?
    Make costumes and save them? This is awesome by the way.
    Do new missions in Cimerora/RWZ? Or TF it out for the merits?
    Convert all my base salvage to Brainstorms?
    Redo my base?
    Level up herbalism? Jewelcrafting?



    I haven't even looked at the market yet in CoH...I'm scared.
