The unthinkable has happened, and I made a new hero on Champion last night. Lord Apparition, a Force Field / Dark Blast Defender. He will be almost exclusively for Rikti smashing fun time.
It's been years since I last played a hero, and I look forward to teaming with y'all on the blueside, and perhaps joining one of y'all's supergroups, since he's currently homeless.

What are the odds you're going to corrupt that hero the minute cohgr is live. ;] -

For some reason I thought the master had to be done on invincible. But just a regular STF on the lowest setting, we've already done that a couple of times in the past with no deaths, so we're definitely game for even three more runs this coming weekend.
Depending on the interest, we'll be available on a fire/mace ice/ice def, ice/kin ice/ice blstr, ill/storm mind/ta, or a rad emp 'nother kin, whatever's needed. Must have shiny badge. $_$ -
Hey old man, good to see you're still kickin'.

Heh, that's a pet peeve of both me and my wife when we get on a TF and the Kin (or Kin[s]) hardly touch the power.
We cycle it if we're on Kins because it makes everything go faster.
My solution to bad kins is forcing my wife to get on hers if I play my Tank, problem solved. =Q -

I am currently in beta for another Super Hero game, and the only thing I like better is the better Open World Content, have they ever talked about making that part of CoH better?
[/ QUOTE ]
I was on that game last night (got my first glimpse of the new city), and while the open world events can appear as though interesting things are happening around you, you quickly get a sense of never finishing a task [how many times do I have to remove that crane before it goes away..].
At least with the CoX events the Rikti are defeated, and go away, even if they come back for more beatings.
Having been in that other thing since sept, I haven't gotten any more sense of excitement from their open world content, then from street sweeping (old term lol) in CoX. In both cases it's mobs clustered in groups waiting for you to extract their XP, for the most part, with some sporadic monsters and such thrown in. ymmv
But hey, silverspare loves it over there, so I don't speak for everyone. -

it looks like Praetoria is just going to be yet another in a long line of 'co-op' zones, and the only 'side' switching that's going to be done is based on an 'alignment' rating. the more eviller you get, the darker your missions become, and you can finally make 'good and evil' choices in plotlines.
[/ QUOTE ]
Not to be pessimistic, but that's exactly what I think it will end up being, with some new emotes and costumes. Still new and cool nonetheless.

I'm well versed in this 'world', I just avoid it and it's imitators exclusively, if possible. At least my dog learns new tricks, y'know. ;] -

if your team had a choice between an empathy or kin controller vs. yoru choice of ANY dom combination....yeah. even if you already had a healer you'd take the auras and another forge. even if you already had one kin you'd take a second fulcrum. you know you would.
[/ QUOTE ]
At the risk of enabling another tanks are crap thread, having a 50 fire/psi dom myself, teams always prefer it when I give them a choice among my other 50's (which includes a kin, fire/rad, 1 corr, 1 mm, s/s & ss/el brutes & of course tanks & scraprs).
Because you don't need capped Def & buff auras if everything is choking, burning and disappearing in two clicks.
But Tanks play differently, really more superhero-like imo. When I get on one of my tanks it feels like you're playing Superman, more so then the other AT's, especially minus exterior buffs, and that's why (according to dev data mining) they're more popular then you may expect, as is.

Hah, you a thread killer, you should searchfu my account, my wife and I have a little laugh over how many threads I shut down stone dead after posting.
But yes, it's a bit slow, everyone's busy getting banned for dirty pl'ing in MA. ;] -
LMC was great because of 6of9, among others, and I think I remember lady fire mercilessly pursuing my fire tank in hunt for quick killz. :]

Seems like #1 was only yesterday.

Very nice, this has been an impressive month for the team.
And I believe this might be the first time I can remember CoX being mentioned in the same press release with Guild Wars and Lineage.
Nemesis plot? ;]
