Talk:Debt

>.> err.... this is a bit off.. you can do TFs at any time now, so that isn't a Strategic Use. Its mainly used by those of use obscessed with doing all the story arcs. Sure, we aim for the badges, but that only really works at higher lvls when you can get enough debt to actually be able to earn the badge.

o,o on a side note, maybe a mentioning on how the debt cap has been dropped twice since issue 0? its now only a 1/4th of what it was back then. --Sleepy Kitty 10:28, 24 May 2006 (PDT)

Be Bold, change it ;D (doing so now) Anyway, in CoH, you can always get a story arc as long as you've done some missions for the contact.

as for dropped twice? Hasn't it only been dropped once, but then only halved again if you're in a mission? --StarGeek 14:08, 9 September 2006 (PDT)

Well, with the most recent drop, the debt table needs updating. I can confirm that the debt cap at 46 is now 276,000 --Fleeting Whisper 08:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

I don't understand what the last paragraph of the Strategic Use article is attempting to explain. Could someone please make it more clear? --Professor Immortal 18:22, 28 July 2007 (EDT)

Done. Corebreach 01:26, 29 July 2007 (EDT)

BTW, the debt numbers are wrong. My 14th level controler was only accruing 380 debt per defeat (outside of any mission), and was capped at 1900 debt.

Correct, the numbers posted are incorrect. On Feb 12, 2008 debt was lowered across the board by 20%

Obsolete

Between the no xp option and the level-independency of accolades, the use of debt section is obsolete. I marekd it as such, but still, how should I put the current options for that? - Baalus Seth 23:00, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Probably add a note somewhere that people used to use debt as a means of slowing XP growth, but with issue13 came the ability to halt XP gain immediately via options?

Also, we need a new debt table which shows debt gained inside and outside missions along with new max debt caps at whatever levels. :o Sera404 23:34, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

I can think of at least one new use for debt. If you want to continue making progress on your Patroller/Criminal badge, but you've hit the 10 bar Patrol XP limit, you can go faceplant enough times to clear out the Patrol XP and log back out. This would also qualify as a new method of farming debt badges since any debt that cancels out Patrol XP apparently counts as debt worked off. Likewise, any debt you have when you log out will slowly be eaten away by the Patrol XP that's accumulating. --Eabrace 23:47, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Debt screenshot

We need a good example showing the XP bar with debt colors, like in the patrol XP article. Catwhoorg 00:53, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
