We'll miss you guys, too, Z.

Good luck, dude. ^_^

It's been a fun time, guys. I'm going to miss the "usual suspects" just as much as I'll miss Pally and Kestrel.

Maybe someone else will come along and make us another great hero game and we'll all cross paths again. The world works in strange ways, sometimes.

If not... I'm happy to have known all of you and wish you many excellent adventures. ^_^

Count me in, too, Tony.

If there's a way to keep the lights on, even in perpetual "maintainence mode", I'm for it.

I will once I get over being angry...

I get very, very strongly attached to the characters that I like the most, and the idea of losing Palrah and Kestrel and Nemissary makes me sadder than I can really explain, even though I knew all along that sooner or later the servers WOULD go dark and they WOULD be taken away from me. It was inevitable, and honestly I guess there is some rational part of my mind that accepted that gracefully.

That part isn't the bit that's running the show at the moment.

The bit that's in charge right now is furious. And disappointed. And utterly confounded at the timing.

Once it gets past all that, it's only going to be left with sad. And, when things are finally shut down, with a couple of holes where my sweet, goof-ball boy-scout of a tank, my ferocious, devoted stalker and my dreamer of a Death Mage ought to be.

I suspect it'll be the act of taking all of my birds back home to the Chantry that'll do it. I want to leave them where they belong... But it really is going to break a little piece of my heart saying goodbye.

My "other MMO" is Aion...

Honestly, the way things are going over there, I seriously suspect AionNA will be the next thing up on the chopping block.

The plushie eyeballs are freakin' adorable... Plushie!Kestrel and Plushie!Cardinal recommend them.

My own archery blaster, Keiranen, has been wearing "Regenerate This!" from the Underground trial for quite awhile. He's kind-of the snarky sort, so it fit his attitude.

I wish.

People (myself among them-) have been asking for feathery bits for ages.

Feathers.

We need feathery bits.

I'll admit it... I *like* getting new toys for my characters, so yes. I do look forward to the new slots. Even if they're not particularly impressive or showy powers, they're still something to tinker around with that we haven't had before. I also like the majority of the Incarnate content we've gotten so far, both League and solo/small team, so I'm all for more of that as well.

What I absolutely do NOT look forward to, though, is another round of endlessly running one single iTrial over and over and over and over again to unlock each new slot we get, a la Hybrid/Magi.

I have a lot of 50s.
Most of them are Incarnates.
It gets VERY old, VERY fast when you have to run the same damned thing multiple times on all of them. <_<

I've had a great time with the Summer movies... No matter which character I ran it with or what the group looked like, it was good entertainment and those procs have been a Very Good Thing for my Peacebringers.

Our best time? A pre-formed group of four Masterminds (Demons/Thermal, Demons/Dark, Bots/Time and Ninja/Forcefield). They just tore everything in the place apart.

Our worst time? Finishing it duo with a Kin defender and a DB tank. (We started with four, but two DCed at the beginning of the second film. FCM and I decided to see if Rush and Palrah could finish it on their own. They did. But it took. freakin. forever. to kill Sylvia. o_0)

We don't have the long hair or longer, flowing costume bits... which has always made me a bit sad, myself.

Rikti designation: Target practice.

I haven't run the blue-side version yet, but had a blast taking Kestrel through the red... In particular I loved the Arachnos "boss fight". (Though Kes is going to be in a little hot water with her boss over beating the snot out of GW, I suspect. "Aw, come on Im... She started it!" ) Castillo continues to make me grin pretty much every time he shows up.

I'd still love to have Rikti as an Epic AT option...
