No travel power picks?

I usually never take a Travel Power.
I usually always go for concept over anything else.
All my Scrappers go without a travel power.
I usually build for plus run speed so I normally have 45 to 50mph run speed.
I would probably use Superspeed all the time if it didn't have the graphics.

My recent 50 heroes, don't take travel powers. With O-portals, Base TPs, and since FBZ sells Raptor packs I just rebuy when time runs out.

My gosh... but they are so SLOW. 
How does it not drive you mad? NONE of my 30+ alts have ever went TPless. Not once. And any of my flyers always 2 or 3 slot it for speed.

The temp jet packs are slow by default, but even those can be improved if you know what you're doing.

the raptor pack is a lot faster if you use the GvE jump pack at the same time.

I can make a Hurdle + Combat Jumping build which moves faster than the Fly cap. My "normal" speed on characters ranges between slightly faster than Fly with two Fly Speed IOs and slightly faster than Fly with three Fly Speed IOs.

And that's about the slowest i can deal with. heh (2 slotted fly)
Honestly, this game is so travel friendly, i can't disagree that going TPless isn't anything more then a minor inconvience. I just love the speed of getting places so much in this game, it's such a change from what i'm used too, that i can't imagian NOT taking a tp. But that's me.
Now, that's assuming you at least make an effort to get to missions as quickly as you can. (which you seem to be an expert at. LOL) I've been on a few teams with TPless people who expect to be tp'ed everywhere. That gets annoying...
They wait till the team gets to the mission... ask for tp 3 or 4 times, being told none has it each time, THEN say something like, "i guess i got to run, no tp so it may take awhile..." I'm just dieing to say, DUDE, if you'd started running when the REST of us did, you'd have been here by the time you asked for a tp the 2nd or 3 time... grr.
It's happened a few times. The team never kicks them, but we don't WAIT for them. Heh.
