  1. I will not be able to make this attempt; I have some health stuff going on. I apologize for having to back out this late. I wish you all luck! I know you all will own this!
  2. I'd like to come along on something, if you'll have me.
  3. I would like to come along. I'll be there on my Dark MM. He has everything required for the run.

    @Niqodemus - Aloaquin Ninjas/Dark MM (Cims or LB, Rebirth or Barrier, Support Hybrid)
  4. I noticed at times that I hit +9 the guards that spawn during the Tyrant fight were green to me. The UI says to make sure they do not reach Tyrant during the fight. Maybe take those out ASAP?

    I'll be there, probably on my blaster Niqodemus.

    I've been on many TPN iTrials on Champion that ended up being Mo runs. You'll probably snag A Perfect Storm the same way in MoM. If not, I'd be happy to help anytime folks are ready to give it a try.

    My wife and I have played off and on since just after Issue 4 and I can tell you that Champion is, by far, the most fun I've had in this game. I hopped over a few weeks back and haven't regretted it for a second.
  7. Thanks Amy and the rest of the excellent Champions for the MoKeyes run! Very awesome!
  8. Thanks to Jitsurei, I was able to get MoUnderground last night! Thanks, Jits!

    Amygdala has helped me knock out most of the rest of the Master of iTrial stuff. A big thanks to her, as well as the always fabulous Champions!

    Aloaquin needs the Avatar of Hami for Dreamkiller from MoM and hopefully, the last two will be knocked out during Amygdala's MoKeyes run Saturday.
  9. Please reserve a spot for me. I'll be there with my MM Aloaquin.
  10. Aloaquin, my MM, still needs:

    Underground: Avatar Assassin and Preservation Specialist
    Keyes: Avoids the Green Stuff and Loves a Challenge
    MoM: Dreamkiller (14/16)

    These are the last three Mo badges I need until Ish 23.
  11. Thanks to Amygdala and the fine folks of Champion, I've managed to knock three off of my to-do list. I'm down to the hard ones now. lol

    I'll help in any way I can whenever anyone needs help.

    Loving Champion!

    I hoped over to Champion from elsewhere two or three days ago and I've had more fun than I've had in a very, very long time. I was in an iTrial minutes after touching down and I've been running as many as I can handle every night since. I'm loving every second of it. I just couldn't believe the atmosphere on Champion! Very awesome!

    I had just about given up on CoH but Champion is making the game fun for me again. I'm not very chatty or talkative but I am friendly and will help anyone with anything at any time.

    I might actually get badges I never thought I'd get now.

    Thank you all for your kindess and the fun. I think my wife and I have found the place we were meant to be.
  13. I joined BMT and Champions United, but ChampioNexus seems to be private.

    I really enjoy running trials, but haven't gotten a chance to run Underground or MoM much.
  14. I'm fairly quiet and keep to myself more often than not, but I always help when the call goes out. It really annoys me when someone asks for help in channels and is met with crickets.

    Looking forward to trying out Champion for a while. I have three accounts nearly full of toons as does my wife, so it would take a while to move everyone to a new home.
  15. I'm thinking of moving my badger from Guardian to Champion after all of the amazing things I've heard about the community. Here's what I need if you all would be willing to help out a stranger:

    TPN - News Flash

    MoM - Everything but Lost Connection to Server

    UG - Preservation Specialist and Avatar Assassin

    Keyes - Avoids the Green Stuff and Loves a Challenge

    I also need the Seed of Hami badge from FW.

    I'll be more than happy to help with any and all the badges people need in return.

    No! I've teamed with you a time or two on one toon or another and enjoyed every second of it. I was trying to stress that a lot of folks don't join chat channels and don't come here to the forums. In fact, I've found that the percentage of those who do is relatively small. I haven't seen anyone post here in the forum that we've had problems with, that I know of.

    We prefer villains; 95% of our toons are redside. The population on the Rogue Isles is pretty sparse.

    My wife has asked for help in one of the channels and always gets help. I know Capn has helped us out a time or three with this or that. Some folks from Dream Team logged on villains to help us start at least one of our 4-toon RSF runs.

    Again, the folks here and on the channels are the exception and not the rule in our experience.

    I did this on my fire blaster... a lot. Six-slotted recharge Inferno FTW!
  18. I've team with him as well. Great guy!
  19. I logged in for the first time - of course back then we didn't have the benefit of "builds" - and just chose an AT and "oh that sounds like fun" took over. I didn't put much thought into because all I really wanted to do was get a character who could fly. That was the goal.

    Then all of those first "oops" moments; turning off fly when soaring close to the ceiling of a zone or running right into Kraken and not understanding I couldn't take him out myself... an encounter that took seconds. Let's not mention thinking that taking Whirlwind was a good idea.

    Having melee powers on a blaster doesn't mean you're a tank but in those early days, when a tank or scrapper wasn't handy, I got to be the meat shield with the plethora of Defenders that were available for teams franticly healing me.

    The infamous exchange of: "Hey blaster, use your taunt", "The only 'taunt' I have is 'Fireball!"

    Six years later, I've had pretty much the same things happen to me a time or two recently.

    I've been pretty anti-social and quiet but Guardian and its community has been very good to me and my wife. It's time we returned the favor.

    Happy Birthday CoH! Now PL meh
  20. Has it really been that long? It only seems like yesterday that it was Issue 16.

    I never said Guardian or anyone else has a problem. We have the problem. I do admit, we're pretty anti-social because we're in the same room. I take the blame for not being more active in chats. We don't announce anything because we're of the mind that we don't want to bother people. It's a habit we're tying to get out of.

    The ITFs I was on with Armeros and Granite Girl were a lot of fun. I didn't mean to imply they weren't. Most of the teams we join are great.

    We don't take this game as serious as some people do. There have been cases where people just go off on their own thing and then get bent when the whole thing fails. We do not and have not gotten mad at anyone. We wanted to do some trial runs with people before we started something up on a regular basis. Real life got in the way.

    I've actually gotten a lot of great messages in the game from people who have asked us to do a better job getting to know the server population and not base anything off a few bad apples (something I will admit we have done).

    Why would they alt across servers/sides/stop doing whatever, not for the guy who was the great tank on the ITF or the guy who helped beat down Deathsurge, or the couple who logged in an extra account so they could start a Posi run or even the guy who helped them transfer some inf over without charge but for someone who they've never heard of?
    We've done all of these things in the past three days alone, but I do understand what you're saying and you're 100% right. I take the blame for that but I'm trying to do better. There's a few reasons we keep to ourselves but it's nothing nefarious or snobbish.

    There's also a very small portion of the server who use the chats or this forum. A lot of players do not.

    RSF Runs

    We've had bad expriences but we've had a lot of really greats ones as well. We live and let live for the most part.

    I think our issue has been/is/was is that we play together, sitting right next to each other and we can be very anti-social. Not because we're snobs or stuck up, we just tend to talk to each other. I'm also usually running three or four accounts at once, so I don't have time to chat. lol

    We play Villains mostly and it is dead on redside. We just want a more active villains to play with.

    RSF isn't as hard as it used to be. I just sleep the Heroes with my Mind/Psi and pick them off one by one. Does it always go as planned? No. Usually? Yes indeed.

    We've been here since the start.

    RSF Runs

    We're still here. It's hard finding good players redside to run semi-static teams with on Guardian so (reluctantly) we're slowly moving toons elsewhere.

    I've ran a few ITFs on Guardian over the past few days with various people; one was with Armeros and I couldn't tell you who else was on that team. On a couple of others it was with someone named Granite Girl (?).

    Getting the Master of badges for us is insanely easy to get redside (we can do it with four toons). The main thing is that people don't listen to instruction and the take this game waaaay too serious.

    We usually don't seek out people or announce in the channels when we're running anything. We like getting badges and we have enough accounts between us that we no longer need outside help for any badges. That's not to say that we won't drop what we're doing to help others. Sad thing is, we don't see a lot of that on Guardian when we did need help.

    My wife and I are extremely easy going, friendly, helpful people who avoid ego and cliques. The community here has pretty much forced us to keep to ourselves. We're good folks if people would take the time to get to know us.
