OOC: Easiest place? Team match ups in the arena.
YES PEOPLE! VILLAINS AND HEROES CAN GO INTO ARENA MATCHES!
I've been stunned at how few people know this. A Hero can go to an Arena in paragon, and a villain can go to the arena in port oakes, and they can enter the same match and fight one another, no PvP zone, no ganking, none of that.
Get your SG's together, get your VG's together, and have a good ol knock down drag out RP fight between the heroes and villains. It's fun trust me!
I had Chiroptera and her boys go up against two heroes lately in a 2 v 1 (2 v 5 if you count her minions) and it was a blast to RP it all out. 
Holy... sweet.. mother.. of... [$diety]
That's AWESOME.
Problem is... I've yet to really find an arch-rival for any of my toons.. on the same server, that is...
Volunteers?
"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
((yeah i knew villains can fight heroes in the arena, but didn't think about it for RP'ing!! thats a great idea.... problem is... finding a hero/villain group to do these things with... maybe if osmeone made a database of all Virtue RP VGs and HGs... then people could coordinate RP sessions... ))
*Sigh* No one ever seems to realize what a great place the Arena can be for RPing.
You can restart a match as many times as necesssary to get the fitting arena for your scene, you can set it so that you have infinite stamina, thus no more characters running out energy at inconvenient times.
You're gauranteed not to be interrupted by broadcast, request or just random folks in local breaking the RP atmosphere; and what's more you can even set it to no observers and invite only to ensure only those meant to experience the storyline do so!
P.S. This is all just a very long drawn out BUMP
((Warburg and Bloody Bay could also be backdrops for RPing, They are PvP zones and a storyline could make them interesting. ))
"It is that balance, the ground between EB and AV, where the PvP struggle should exist. Where a 1v1 becomes a struggle of equals, and 1vMany gives the benefit to the 1."
Freedom: Fireocity, Electro Imp, Gotya
Infinity: Meteor Storm, Mutai Kid, General Bot, Da Smasher
((So the bad boys are outta the zig, and every single heroes enemies have all gathered together to wreck havok on paragon city. In my opinion, there's a whole lotta potential here for some really good storylines between villian and hero groups... but the problem is that there really isn't a peace zone where all of us can rp together... so I was wondering what kind of ideas are out there for roleplaying between villians and heroes? And maybe perhaps we should gather all the RP SGs and VGs to plan some big and minor storylines for our characters. Anything will do, i just hate to see the potential for RPing in this game go to waste.))
