  1. Made two lvls last night, which was more than I thought I would. It does seem like this is a very Melee/Control heavy run. We only had one Corr on the team, didn't see any Blasters or Defenders.
  2. Bonebaby Street/SR Scrapper
    Flux - Grav/Storm Controller
    Hortaus - Titan/WP Brute
    JohnP - Shield/Dark Tanker
    MedievalPower - Dark/Elec Brute
    Mental Giant - Mind/Fire Dominator
    Satanic Hamster Titan/WP Brute
    Vanum - Battle Axe/? Brute
    Viking698 - Illusion/Time Controller
    VoodooCompany - Electric/Time Controller
    War_Hammer - Stone/? Tanker


    4 Brutes
    3 Controllers
    1 Dominator
    1 Scrapper
    2 Tankers

    11 Total

    Might be two full teams if we get enough extra.
  3. Pretty sure the first Isos started in ought five.
  4. All are welcome!

    (Except for a few people Hamster will kick instantly.)
  5. I was looking forward to the new redside intro content.

    Is there any way to see if you bought a costume piece beside going to a costume editor? I just noticed this cool Volcanic Aura, and I'm not sure if I bought it or not.

    Interesting mix so far.

  9. I didn't include you because I wasn't sure if we were Blue or Red at that point yet, and for some reason I assumed Controller was a Blue option.
  10. Well, you have to post what you're actually running for it to get on the list.

    This is a mockery of a Listâ„¢... can no one make up their minds for this run?!

    Just do what I did... pick an old toon that's been languishing redside and run them!

  13. I feel like this episode was one step forward two steps back for Rick. He does the whole Wild West thing taking out the immediate threat... and then, when their friends show up he explains what happened!

    This is right up there with saying YES if someone asks you if you're a god... if you've killed some people, and their friends come around asking where they are, you HIDE or LIE!

    Then we have the jumper. With a swarm of Walkers descending, the best thing you can do for that guy is put him down quick, and move on... bringing him back to the farm is insanity, albeit ethical insanity.

    Contrast this with Shane, who instantly and convincingly lies to Lori to get her back to the farm. If he wasn't in love with another man's wife, he'd make a great leader!

    My investment was completely NOT worthwhile, but I spent more than I had to. If I had an experience where I bought 10 packs and got the whole costume set, I'd feel much better about my experience.

    If you want ATOs, hit the market while you can. It might already be too late, but I've had good luck buying ATOs from 20 to 30Minf, which is much cheaper than 400 Reward Merits + 25Minf.

    If I had my way, this would be the last Super Pack, but I'm sure they made a boatload of money, so we'll see them again, and probably with a costume set behind them. Without the costume set, I don't pay one cent for these packs and I get ATOs through the market or merits/astrals.
  15. It's that time again, Ladies and Gentleman... time for The Listâ„¢!

    JohnP - Shield/Dark Tanker
    Mental Giant - Mind/Fire Dominator
    War_Hammer - Stone/Undecided Tanker

    1 Dominator
    2 Tankers


  16. And there we go.

    Bringing my Mind/Fire Dom for Isos next week.

  18. Are we taking tonight off, or doing a session?

    If we're Red I'm going to bring in my Mind/Fire Dom, if Blue, I'll go with my Titan/Inv Brute.

    Got just about a full set of Stalker and MM. I've been doing well picking up the ones I missed for 20Minf a pop on the market.

    I got 9 Catalysts out of it, so my Stalker main is rocking a Superior Stalker ATO set.

    Still, though... way too much god damn money.

    The costume is account based, everything else is character based.
