Romulus Augustus Broadsword?

I found a post today on the forums about a weapon called the "Romulus Augustus" Broad Sword. It seems as though no one has ever heard of this, and the poster said that it is rewarded by killing Romulus Augustus 100 times in the last misison of the ITF. It seems far fetched, but he did post pictures here: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=11054799&an=0&page=0#Post11055329 this shouldn't be added until we find out whether this is real or fake, and this may take a while...

And now there are reports of a second BS unlock for the ITF. Link Apocrypha 02:56, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
...Unless we're fortunate enough to get confirmation from a dev. *crosses fingers*-Eabrace 15:59, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
You, Eabrace, are correct. After asking Back Alley Brawler, here is the respone I got: "Nope, it's unlockable by Broadsword Scrappers. I don't know what unlocks it though." From player experience, it is definitely available to Broad Sword, and possibly Dual Blades. Confirmation still needed on how to get it...BaB doesnt even know >.< Dcm510 18:28, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Edited page with the picture found on the forums. Romulus Augustus sword now in Weapon Customization page, but confirmation still needed on how to get it. Dcm510 19:18, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
In order continue with my research on this sword, I have sent a message to Positron asking if he can release any confirmation on what swords it is available to and how exactly it is earned.
If anyone has it, could they shoot me a quick demorecord of a toon using it? Under 5 seconds is best. Apocrypha 00:45, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
I have witnessed this first hand and taken screenshots of a bit higher calibur:[1][2]
xr8ed is present on Guardian under Atlas' statue at the moment showing the weapon to any who want to see it. The 100 victories over Romulus seems right, but it is far from confirmed. Feel free to use the above screenshorts or derive any useful pic neccessary for this entry. Rast of Guardian 01:38, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Judging by a couple new posts on the threads about this sword, it sounds as though it is unlocked by just completing the TF. It wasn't rewarded before, so it sounds like it only counts after the latest update. Dcm510 16:31, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
I can confirm that both the Romulus Broadsword and the Nictus version are for defeating Romulous on two seperate occasions, the taskforce does not need to be completed in order to access these swords merely that you defeat the Nictus infused Romulus atleast once per taskforce (twice in total for access to both versions), both times the Broadsword was awarded on the first defeat of Romulus. I will edit the picture on the main page with a picture taken of the Nictus Broadsword. Luketfer 17:09 GMT

Dual Talsorian?

I thought I saw a picture on the Boards... - Skarmory The PG 13:19, 19 November 2007 (EST)

I'm pretty sure Dual Blades does not have a Vanguard Talsorian option at this time. Back Alley Brawler indicated that there's no reason we WOULDN'T see one, they're just not in the game at this time.

As of Issue 12 Dual Talsorian Blades have been added. -->Bloshi<-- 23 May 2008

Pulse Rifles

Got the Unveiler on my Bots MM, and I got a message saying a crey pulse rifle had been unlocked at the tailor, but when I got to the tailor nothing new was there - still don't have the Crey Pulse Blaster option. So something is bugged with pulse rifles and the Unveiler badge and the Crey Pulse Blaster costume peice. Shelly 17:29, 14 February 2008 (UTC)@Shelly

Crey Pulse Rifles

  • The Crey Pulse Rifles are unlocked with the Infiltrator badge. Unfortunately, the only way to earn that badge is by taking down 200 Paragon Protectors. If you don't know anyone with one of the old bugged PP missions, there are only 2 ways to do that now: there is a lv 34 mission given by Timothy Raymond in Nerva Archipelago to stop someone escaping. If you increase the difficulty so the enemies are at least lv 35, it will put 3 Paragon Protectors in the mission for you; more if you have friends. Otherwise you can hunt them in the FAB in Grandville. It may seem a might unfair, but that's the way it goes. Angelsilhouette 18:18, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

More Possible DB Skins

Has anyone seen or heard anything about Thorn or Rikti Dual Blade Skins?

Just curious if they've been added or there's been talk of it down the road at all. -->Bloshi<-- 23 May 2008

Rularuu Weapon Requirements

Can someone verify the requirements for the Rularuu weapons? There should be five four ways to unlock them:

  1. Get the Visionary Badge (Heroes and Villains)
  2. Get the Firebase Zulu Security Detail Badge (Heroes only) Confirmed as not rewarding the weapons
  3. Complete any Shadow Shard task force (Heroes only)
  4. Complete Technician Naylor's arc "Last Stand on Mole Point Bravo" (Villains only)
  5. Complete Efficiency Expert Pither's arc "Alone in the Darque" (Villains only)

Ok, so BAB confirmed the unlock requirements for the Rularuu weapons, and the list above is correct, with one addition. Scirocco's 2nd arc "The Hammer of the World" also unlocks the weapons. Apocrypha 16:14, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
