Old School Player Seeking Guidance

I don't know if anyone is still around on good Ole Triumph that would remember me at all so I'm going to introduce myself real quick and ask for some help.

I'm Big Nova, a Lvl 50 Energy/Energy Blapper (if that term is still used or Viable...My build will most definately be changing soon) My original Supergroup was The F.R.O.N.T. and then spent some time with Riders of the Apocalypse once the FRONT all but disappeared. Basically, I would like to know where to start once my client is installed and updated. I would still like to play my Blaster but there's a couple of other things I want to know. How is PvP on this server now? When I stopped playing and when to the Darkside (WoW....still there) Freedom was the only server that had really good PvP and I got called a Griefer for killing in PvP zones...Is this still the case? Should I start a PvP character up on Freedom or another server that is known for its PvP?

Also, are there still any old school Supergroups around on the server with some old school people? I'd like to hop right back in and start playing later tonight.

Thanks in advance guys and I look forward to seeing people in Paragon city and the Rogue Isles once again.

Freedom is still largely considered the place to be for PvP, simply because of it's population size. You may want to read up on the changes to PvP - it's a different beast than what you were familiar with. I haven't done as much PvP since I13 as I'd like to, so I can't speak on whining in the zones. All I could say is try it and see.

Someone else will have to comment on the SG question...I'm fairly new to Triumph, while I've been playing other places considerably longer

Shocker is still around I think...but he's more like old people than old school people.

There is plenty of PvP in RV on Triumph .... Obviously Triumph is a smaller server compared to Freedom but we still have hardcore PvPers, always have, probably always will.

Fusion Force is still around and going strong and there are still many of us playing. As for PvP, Freedumb is more populated so more PvP.

I remember you and your sg. Your old SG leader tried getting most of T.I./OS banned back in the day. As far as pvp is concerned Triumph is still the "friendly" server and there will always be people that come for badges and farming and cry when you kill them. The pvp on Freedom is pretty much a 24/7 gankfest. Triumph has higher quality pvp but its rarely seen now.

Whats up Nova, Im pretty sure I remember you, one of my good buddies was in Riders, I think he went over to WoW with a large portion of them. There are still a lot of us old timers running around.

Heya Nova,

as Czar said, Fusion Force is still very much around, as are Riders.

PvP, others have covered better than I could say.

Doing well. Man we had some times back when. Still laugh when I think about the time I was boppin' around FF and came across you setting in the boat in your Biff outfit. I'm not really back just popped in during the free weekend.

I'm one of those that suffers from lvl cap syndrome. 4+ years of no cap increase equals no goal hence no challenge for me. Lol, I did have 55 free tailoring sessions...heh, unnecessary as CB is already perfect .

I also had more free respecs than I cared to think about. The trial was always so easy that respecs are also not needed.

I was going to go work on some inventions (thought that was cool from last time I was here) but the SG base appears to be broken.

Both Sky and I have been playing either WoW or EQ2. EQ2 is more of our home and as such when DCUO launches I will be trying that. I was going to try Champions but the idea of Emmert having anything to do with that game just turns me off.

Grats on marriage and the baby! Thats way too cool.
