    Well, it's certainly faster than swimming at base speed underwater.

    Someone, somewhere, sometime, told me that the flight travel power is useless underwater.... so I tested it by swimming north to south or vice versa in Lemuria and timing it.

    No travel power was about 5 minutes. Flight was about 1:45, teleport was about 1:15, and my Until shuttle could do it in ~40 sec.

    For comparison purposes, I did a similar speed trial in the sky above Monster island. The shuttle did it in around 1:30 and flight was around 2:45.

    Were your travel powers both the same speed?

    Basically all travel powers turn into Super-Swim when you hit the water.

    Vehicles tend to actually go faster underwater. It almost feels as though they're flying without any drag/wind resistance/whatever, and can move about with much more freedom.

    yeah, I did wonder if that was the case. Hey! I went and measured those zones, so I can give the actual distances....

    Monster Island:
    N/S; 5056/-5799 = 10855
    W/E; 3599/-2814 = 6413

    shuttle: 10800/90 = 120
    flight: 10800/165 = 65.45

    Lemuria:
    N/S; 5783/-427 = 6210
    W/E; 3290/-252 = 3542

    shuttle: 6200/40 = 155
    flight: 6200/105 = 59
    teleport: 6200/75 = 83

    Yeah, it would seem that Vehicles ARE faster underwater.... maybe this is prenerf speed? I dunno... *points at join date* flight is somewhat slower.... somewhat. And there is NO way I'm gonna try to teleport all the way across monster island.....

    Not sure if you had managed to scrape this prior to the archive going down, but I knew i had saved these lists for checking the Auction House for unlocks I didnt have.


    Champions Legacy Power Replace Items


    Unfortunately it is only the first page lists for each of Single Blade, Dual Blade, Munitions and Archery with Names, source, and unlocked costume name where known. No pictures or details on the Unlock Item.

    Oh, by all means. So sorry. Perhaps you should include the restriction in the OP, just so people know. I'll look for my old wiki answers elsewhere, while you work on yours.

    i actually made a thread about it elsewhere, as did a few others, the popular view is one of those site sitting sites bought the old domain and killed the archive in the process.

    but feel free to use our wiki , more is completed everyday

    in regards to the restriction, it is understood not to go off topic too much in the forum in general. threads can derailed and become useless very easily.

    Updated Mission Pages:

    Added: Factions involved in mission
    Added: Icons for Regular Missions, Repeatable Missions, Resource Rewards, and Perks.

    Only a little over half of the regular missions have been posted. There's a lot more to come, and then I'll start work on Contacts.

    Updated page: Perk Reward Costume Pieces -- add all icons.

    Happy Holidays, everyone!

    Old Site: Been downloading a backup of it for two days straight. Had to stop the download because it got to the point where I couldn't do anything else - the backup was eating up all the bandwidth and processor usage.

    The program I use (MetaProducts Offline Explorer Enterprise 6.8) doesn't keep exact copies of the files either - they're changed to proprietary formats only the program can read. BUT, it has an export feature that will copy all the files to their original formats onto the computer. I started that at about 2pm today. It's now 8:20 and and it is still not done. According to the export screen, it's up to 449371/496465.

    The really fun part is, when I go to the folder where the files are exporting to and check to see how many are there, Windows only reports about 180,000 files. Obviously the backup was grabbing lots of duplicates.

    New Site: I've finally posted missions for Lemurian Crisis, Several Monster Island neighborhoods, and Vibora Bay Apocalypse. Unfortunately, all my data for the Lemurian Crisis came from the old site. I haven't been able to get into the crisis in game to verify or update anything.

    Perhaps it's trying to copy over each saved version of files from the wayback machine? That would account for all the duplicates.

    *Nods* Most likely. The wayback machine saves a particular backup to a sub-folder named for that date and time, so you end up with 50 copies of the same icon or such. The not-so-fun part is trying to determine what pages my program hasn't downloaded and getting those - if the wayback machine even has them! *sigh*

    Old Wiki:

    The Export finished some time late last night. Final count: 228,842 Files. Size on disk: 2.34 GB.

    I've been looking through some of the files. Most are HTM, which is good. However, there's an unknown number that, when I open them to see the content, are the reports from the Wayback Machine saying it hadn't backed up that file. So, what I'll probably spend the next few days doing is going through all of those files and weeding out the WM reports -- unless someone wants me to keep them?

    I'm going to also zip up everything I have and add it to my online drive. *sigh* that's going to take who-knows how many more hours...

    New Wiki:

    I've added missions for Slither Beach, created a page for Maps, and have started collecting data for Contacts.

    Old Wiki:

    Since all of the files were compiled together in one folder, I spent all day yesterday organizing them into sub-folders. What I've found is that a lot of the files are duplicates. In fact, they don't have any real data, they simply use meta commands to pull up other pages or images. This doesn't even include the pages that are missing file reports. I've kept them all though and am currently zipping it all up to upload to my onedrive. I'll update when the upload is complete.

    New Wiki:

    Added Missions for Echinocos Shores.

    The New Wiki CC was a blast! Fantastic work guys.

    Old Wiki: Still up an offering data. I've been slowly going through to save any files I didn't get with the backup. Slow going that is.

    New Wiki: Just added the last of the Monster Island Missions! I'm gonna finish Lemuria and then I'll have to actually run Vibora Bay to find out WEHRE they belong.

    Hope everyone has a Happy New Year!

    Wikitronik makes us sound like a music group. :eek: Not sure what else to suggest tho...

    Old Site: Continuing to collect missing files for backup. It's a lot folks.

    New Site: Posted Missions for The Caliginous Depths. One more for Lemuria and then it's on to Vibora Bay!

    Icons look great, Jasin! Enjoy your week off.

    Old Site: Looking for a way to collect pages from the site that includes any images and bg code (CSS and JS files) so the downloaded files look and work like they do online. I'm probably going to have to write something myself, but for now, all I can do is open up an bunch of pages on separate tabs in Chrome and then Save As each page so I get all the files. Can't even use Save Link As... to do it, that method only grabs the page itself. If anyone knows a way to do this, send me a PM.

    New Site: Just finished posting the missions for Rastrinfhar's Abyss. That's more than 860 missions on the new site now. Not done yet though. Still have to post missions for Vibora Bay, and then thre are all of those Help a Citizen random missions handed out by citizens that run up to you on the street. I can find a bunch when I "Search for Emergencies" via the Socrates icon, but even then they're random.

    Remember folks, we're always looking for new volunteers to help out in pretty much any way. You don't have to write pages or create artwork, maybe just provide some kind of statistical information or find out that one of the pages we've posted has something wrong with it - a typo or the data is wrong. Anything will help. You can contact me, EvilTaco, or JasinBlazin in game or send any of us a PM here on the forums. Thank you!

    Old Site: Backups continue.

    New Site: Added several new pages over the last couple of days: MCPD Headquarters, UNTIL, UNITY, Subscriptions, Hideouts, Crisis Zones, Nemesis System, Nemesis Creation, and I don't know how many more.

    I've started posting Contacts as well: Doctor Silverback and MCPD Captain Martin. And finally, I've updated the Nemesis Clue Missions for the Nemesis System.

    Just re-discoved something that TT and his guys might want to fix.

    http://co.perfectworld.com/community

    I'm certain that the image and links to the CO Wiki are trying to send a visitor to that now absent/old and defunked Wiki. And while the New one is not yet complete, it is certainly more Present than a link to the old Wiki.

    With the exception of the referral program, which not longer exist in any form ( so far as I know ), the other links seem active and the info useful.

    I created the main pages for Comic Series and Adventure Packs. Added Aftershock and all associated missions.

    Today, I uploaded a map of Vibora Bay with markers for spawn locations for Sammie's Lost Dollies.

    I've been working on the missions for Vibora Bay, putting everything together, and when I ran across Sammie's Lost Dollies, I realized no one had the completion text. Could be because that mission is EXTREMELY difficult to complete. If anyone has that information, as well as the amount of resources and experience you received for it, please, let me know.

    Thank you.
