Petition to make Nocturne items free pulls

There are a few reasons for this: 1. Mettle is a free pull, as are mettle-based assemblies, so things purchased from mettle should probably be free pull 2. None of the items purchased from the store are game-breaking, and /all/ of them have sufficient level requirements. 3. As it is, if you're in a ...

Re: Pulls vs Perms

I agree - and i understand. What bugs me is that people complain about pulls - yet they'll quite happily disregard skills. I'm not placing you or anyone who's posted in this thread in that category, but everytime i've used skills wisely, my run(s) have been made much faster. It's conceivable that s...

How many of us have been screwed for want of a data plate or memory tube? Or a swingline stapler?

Re: Fastest Retcon Time

I think there are several ways of doing this type of run that would be pretty simple...just very tedious and time-consuming. Farm tons and tons of SQUID discs, RETCON, use 'em on a Frayday, and get to level 30 without using a single turn. That'd grant a lot of turns to be used. Valera's method may ...
