But I beleive I'll tell the SG about this, invite our tanks to come, and use up one of those free server transfers we get now.
Is it true that all the statues have laurel wreath crowns on Champion?

Sounds great, with PS people on hand to spawn AV/GM funness I'm willing to guarantee everyone will have a good time.
And think less Grecian deity for champion and more Bacon and Ale, but who doesn't love Bacon and Ale. ;]

Nice vid promo & welcome all ye new bloods.

Anyone plan on doing an all Tanker iTrial?
We did successfully complete the first all tank itrial a few months back here on champ and it was definitely fun stuff.

I think you'd be surprised, there are some people who've posted at the beginning of this thread who were in their late 40's back then.
But far be it from me to send mixed signals to friends by purposely pointing even one of them out. After all, anonymity is like a warm blanket.

Should I find it surprising you identify yourself in the scenario as the established evil SoB with good publicity
What NM said, with all the spawns from what will be an above average Praetorian Invasion with AVs & GMs it should be a good night to start a lowbie tank & get it some levels, and maybe prize money.Quote:Originally Posted by NuclearMedicine
For anyone else who's ever thought of trying the AT, this is one event you want to attend! Roll a Tank, join the fun. And keep an eye out for when the TT Tour comes to your server!!

@Liberties -> Liberties will be making a rare public appearance, (Rare on Champion Server, transferring over there for the event...
)
Btw the devs had a Praetorian Invasion planned for sometime for another server on Oct 4th but they changed the schedule just for TT7. =]
It wouldn't surprize me if we melt KR with multiple instances, it should be hawt.
Btw, btw, anyone planning on attending the costume contests please check your outfits beforehand, we'd like to avoid any *ahem* 'malfunctions'.

*Tanker Tuesday is an evening gathering of Tankers who join together and have a great time running Missions/TF/Trials/ Events. This night of “Total Tanker Teamage" starts each month at 9:00 EDT on Champion Server and continues on multiple servers through the month, each event gathering at the King's Row side of the King's Row / Independence Port gate.
Originally started as a Super Group exclusive get-together in October 2004, the event known as Tanker Tuesday was held on the first Tuesday of each month, and due to its popularity soon opened up to be a server wide - and today Multiple server Tanker gathering. Breaking the border of Super Group allegiances, and attracting players on all servers, Tanker Tuesday was awarded the Official City of Heroes 2nd Annual Player’s Choice Award for Favorite Player-Run Event in 2006 and hosted three and five year anniversary celebrations in Oct 2007 & Oct 2009 which combined drew over 700 Tanks plus NCSoft personalities.
This event is open to EVERYONE regardless of Level, Super Group, or Server. Don't have a Tanker? This is the perfect opportunity to roll up a new one! Get advice from some of the longstanding Tankers, or just come out for a Tank-Tastic Time!
For further information on all regular Monthly Tanker Tuesday events always check the Tanker section of the City of Heroes Forums.

Quote:Redraw is a minor -irritating- lingering issue for starters, the cut into dps over extended gameplay accumulates into a drag on performance pitted against non-weapon sets.Originally Posted by Dromio
The battle shouldn't be between the weapon sets, it should be the weapon sets both trying to get brought up to par with the non-weapon sets.
And as far as overall damage here is where I'm interested in seeing the final baselines for Titan Weapons and I'm hoping they're impressive regardless of activation gimmicks -- read 'a rising tide lifts all boats'.
Both of your posts are spot on, and I'm in the same place with the shared repetitious animations having played mace so much, stomaching BS to 50 is just a bridge too far even even though it's a solid set.Quote:Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
That's why I keep asking for alternate weapon animations. Frankly, I think they needed it over all the ranged attacks, just because the projectile variations of all the ranged attacks make for the real difference among those animations (I do notice the casting motion some, but not nearly as much as I note the attack animations on melee characters).
Broad Sword, Axe, and War Hammer all used to be the same set, too, which makes for even bigger similarities. Some variation among them all would be really helpful. I can't play Axe or Broad Sword since I have a commonly played Mace Tanker... their animations seem too much of the same to me. Same with Banes.
Alternate weapon animations are in the pipeline, just nothing solid as to eta. -
Quote:Originally Posted by Runawayrpg
Why are Battle axes end tier abilities so sub par compared to it's closest competitor War Mace?
In part because Mace was the perennial worst tanker power set from the games release up until 07 when we got Castle (former powers guy) to look at it. Some time following the buff to War Mace some complaints started to surface over Axe being an underperformer, complaints that rarely showed up prior to the nearly identical Mace set getting the upgrade.
Castle's objective was to solidify Mace as the aoe melee set, and that's what we got but the numbers separating the two sets currently are not that monumental, in fact I believe had Floyd done nothing to WM Axe would likely still be thought of as the strongest weapon power set.
All that aside, getting BA a little buff isn't something I would object to, but I'd prefer it be focused on the ST damage to keep the two sets distinct. -
WB, now get 6of9 back and we'll throw you a parade.

Agreed with OP.

To me it's a novelty, it's effects were reduced during c/beta and even before that it was situational with the long recharge.
If you can make the room it isn't terrible but I wouldn't waste a primary build choice for it. -

There's a difference between reserving a name (especially if it's one you're already known by) for future use and taking up a name that someone else is known by for purposes of either holding it hostage or griefing. Most of the toons in that screenshot were likely the former rather than the latter.
