NPCs made my day...

Just started triple boxing a trio of near identical Grav/Rad controllers. All named Heavy Illumination. Through use of IIl and llI which in the in game font looks like Ill... Anyway was about to ding 15 and decided to do it with a bang and used my Self Destruct on a group of mobs in Steel Canyon. They die and the NPC that they had been threatening runs up and says: "I want my children to grow up just like you..." to a row of non-existent corpses (I didn't ding off the mob ).

Then a little later another rescued NPC tells me that I'm one of a kind, conveniently ignoring the other two of a kind standing (floating I have hover now) right next to me. I sometimes really love this game.

Cape is just a slang word for any superhero, even if they have no cvape themselves - the same with calling us tights

2 bacardi breezers sort that tightness out!

OT: I love the npc chatter you get when you finish an arc/mission and random npcs just shout out something relevant about you.


@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

So they're... anti-heroes?


Sam: "My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas."
Max: "Me too."

In the same way Spider-man is an anti-hero lol

Best one I've had is "oh no not again" from a skull in kings as I started beating him to a pulp

Back on topic:

Was on an ITF with my Granite Tanker last night. We skipped up to Romulous and just after his first rez the ambush spawned crying "We must stop them" at which point almost everyone on the team mapserver'd. So they succeeded, briefly

Theres been a few corkers, but sadly very few ever got noted down.

The three way shout match at the end of the Faultline arcs between Sands, Nocturne and Castillo is good fun, though. As is Lady Grey exploding at Nemesis in Serpent Drummers arc
Ah, I think the best one was also in Serpent Drummers arc. When General Aarons actually made Nemesis mad Can't remember the quote, and sadly its not on the wiki. It should be. Go play that arc if you havent.

Also, Cimerora NPCs tend to be made of lore-break fail Radios? TV? Uh, no XD

My favourite ever line was from an NPC near a MA building not very long after MA came out, which went something like: "And that was how I got my furry Positron arc banned for the third time."

I did such a double-take. I need to go loiter around an MA building for a while and see if I can get the exact quote.

Aha. I was the /wp scrapper who spent half the TF faceplanting comically. Note to self - make sure where the aggro is before rushing into a group of bosses and hitting Dragon's Tail!

Cimerora NPC dialogue is a bit of a joke.

The best NPC quotes have to be the Villain Group Respec on the STF 3rd mission when you enter the Thorn Tree. All I can remember is one of them saying "I have no Map". But its very funny and unexpected


Life is one big practical joke that we as the human race have yet to see the punchline to. Once you work that out the rest is easy.

One of my favorites is "Even with the sniffles, (name) is still the bomb!" after the Vahzilok wasting disease story arc.
