soo...brought AG over to virtue but really wishy washy on what I want him to be. given the look I keep thinking tank but no sword which is a part of his background. currently he's a scrap swd/reg....but finding it a little lacking. considered going swd/invuln scrap and then focus on the invuln side of the house and grab all the aggro grabbin tools I can but unsure how well that would work. I do know he would basically be kinda sucktacular till the low 20s though.
tank side...invuln is a given. (not a fan of any of the others...cant stand the looks, although fire would be next choice if I had to). secondary is the toughy. given no sword option (boooo) stuck with going either mace (current thought mainly cause it looks different and kinda cool looking). ax...not keen on this. SS....which would fit his heritage being an asgardian (vanir specifically) or EM...which I like but dont think it would fit terribly well for the concept.
tanks and scraps....I actually prefer the tank and think it would actually fit best here...kinda. to many arguements on both sides of the fence really and all are valid and within concept.
hrrrmmmm......~

Personally, I like sword Scrappers. I have at least four, maybe five. Or is it six? Plus a few Katana Scrappers. I have one Axe and one Mace Tanker each, but for some reason they don't quite thrill me. I guess I keep expecting better damage from them. Having Build Up in both those sets helps, but not enough to wow me.
You could always go crazy and roll a fire Blaster and take the two sword options. That kind of fits in with the concept. Blappers aren't quite as fun as they used to be with the dreaded I5-I6 takedowns on defense and damage (:::shakes fist at sky::: Curse you, GDN and ED!) hurting both their durability and deathdealing, but in the right mindset they are nutso fun. (The "right mindset" mainly being willing to get all three debt badges by level 30.)
My Electric Blapper is loony fun. (He's Pazzo Piezo in my Alt Alphabet. "Pazzo" means "crazy" in Italian, fitting for a Blapper.) Try it, you might like it. Just a heads up, though: you WILL die a lot.

aye...seems I will be going back to scrapland for AG. while I like the toughness feel of the tank for him definately see him as being a tad more offensive. just toying with the idea of being an invuln or just sticking with the regen. and to be honest to for me to get past the end recovery thing on regen...that is one of the best powers there are imo....especially at the lower levels. I dunno...may make the invuln version and see how it feels....if I cant stand it I'll just jump back ta regen
as far as blapper zappers...aye...being a squishy on the front line is indeed hazardous to ones life but that in turn is part of the appeal. I have played around a couple times with an elec/elec blapper zapper and enjoyed the hell out of it. heck...its how Ms Majestic started...till I jumped her over to a tank. heh...more than likely I'll go back eventually once I think of a concept and look I like that fits. ~

Teaming with AG (The Sword/Regen) I thought you did pretty well... I think like one death during our teaming, but thats expected in the lower levels. Sword/ is really fun once you get Disembowel. Thats your second main damage dealer, and you can go through enemies pretty fast. And once you get Headsplitter... Oh boy, the fun times just keep rolling! Personally, I like /Invuln. but it wouldn't be the best defense imo if your gonna' tank with it
Very nice drawing above... The wings look spectacular!

...well...made him into a bs/invuln to get a feeling and to be honest liking it so far. the end issues aside could be fun...although I wont lie, given scraps lower threshholds kinda worried about everything other than S/L at the higher levels. for now though...he's a keeper...
also...kinda cool wanding around and being one of the few glowing irredescent scrappers versus the greenies....heh~

~whiteperegrine~
sooo, been puttering around with AG as a bs/invuln and really groovin on it so far. thus far...I last to the end in big fights that wipe teams (although sans endo) and have even acted as tank for teams and been called a good tank
...given, that thinkin this version is the keeper.
also...started my own lil sg called Midgard (staying in theme of AG after all...heh)...so if anyone needs a home just let me know I'm on most of the time.
...now just have to get my some of my alts on virtue into the team...lol~

ooh, I'll have to make my Freya in Virtue then!
well, next project I am going to work on given my return is deciding on possible new look and powers for Astrogate. normally he runs as a fire/fire blaster but really toying with idea of dropping him on Liberty as a fire/energy tank.
in other news on liberty, the rest of the gang has been ported over although some of them went through a few changes.
whiteperegrine : defender-kin/psi
Ms Majestic : scrap-dark/invuln
crosshart : defender-ta/a (again..........)
nitecrow : scrap-dark/regen
Asgarthr Gryphon : scrap-bs/invuln
Citenik : tank-invuln/energy
citenik has been the largest pain in the [censored]...I was tired of him being on the COV side...but unfortunately the Brute Fury is a great way to simulate his conceptual power. sigh~

Astrogate as a Tank?
ok, so the above is the working idea for Astrogate as a fire/am tank. the biggest issue I have at this point is the red glowy fists but given I dont see him wielding a sword made of flame its the option I prefer at this time (ss being one of my least favorite animations)
more than likely I will tinker around with it on paper, as I do with most, until I find something I like. till then I suppose this will have ta do~

cool costume!
actually still a work in progess. while the pictured is the working suit in the mean time. I find that I am in the stage of that I have a general "idea" what I want it look like I just put my thumb on it yet.
colorwise this is what I am thinking...star has already changed and I know what I want to do with that. the only question now is the linework for the suit itself. he may end up being like whiteperegrine in that his conceptual costume looks nothing like his in game look.~

the Glass Scorpion
resurrected the name and finally came up with something I like. heck, even got crazy and wrote out a very rough lil background for her. she's an elec/elec blapper zapper. think I may even break out the paper and pencil for her as her suit in concept is a tad different than in game...~
...the sword is truth...
~whiteperegrine~
Very nice!
given new server I have actually been working relatively new folks here. the aforementioned Glass Scorpion and now Crossmoon and Guardian Sphinx. 'moon was actually pretty easy and pretty boring in look, and Sphinx I like but was torn between tank or fender....currently dark/dark fender. I'll put some pics up this evenin when I get home from work....~
