Leave an sg - Click Super on top of your chat box, then bottom right click Quit.

Starting out try UHB Channel. If you want to do Task Forces and Monster Hunts try BMT. If you want AE Story Arcs try Champion MA Channel. You have to find someone to get you an invite to these specialty channels.

Big sg's, there are some really good ones, i recommend United Heroes Brigade (UHB), Hammers of Justice (HoJ), or ALL-OUT-WAR (AOW). How to find a member is easy - use the little "r" for request channel on the bottom of your chat area, or stand in atlas and use broadcast, there are good odds there will always be someone there from any of these 3 sg's.

If your mainly into PvP then ask a Pingu or Protector of Neverland (PoN), i dont like these sg's but thats because i am not big on PvP (Player vs Player) but these guys are extremely good at what they do.

Now you asked the question what did i use as a guide when i started? The answer is
i10 Fire/Storm Controller Guide by Eldandil, it is old since we are in i15 but almost all of it is a level by level guide to what you can find as temp powers and badges, most of which is still correct, i still recommend looking in the Guides section and checking things out here in the Forums!

Looking for a new build? You have several slots so try a few different ones and see what your playstyle and preference is.

I'm laid back and easy going other than that.


oo i kinda like the new guy.

Hello fairly new player here . Picked up the game a few days ago and was browsing through the forums a couple times. The BMT channel thing has me a bit confused though. I don't quite understand how to enter the channel or whatnot. I've also played around with a few archetypes not quite satisfied with anyone yet other than the scrapper, I also kind of enjoy the tanker . There are various other questions I have but I can't quite recall them atm. Great forums btw

Is that your global name? Tried that, no dice. On now.

And umm global name? Not certain. The chat mechanics of the game are still very new to me. I've mainly been playing with my cousin up till where I am now.

what was the name of the very first character you created? by default that will be your global name ( or the name people can contact you with , no matter what actual character you are playing)

For example my global name is : @electrohawk

Ohh okay, Prethena I believe, in the middle of a mission atm though so I'll check to be certain once I pop out. It was a martial arts scrapper and I just wasn't feeling it very much so I stopped working on her.

Tried to friend that name to get your global to perform the channel invite, and it said it doesn't exist.

Just tell me the name of the character you are logged on currently. I can figure out the rest.

Ohhh I think I see, you're on Champion server. I picked Pinnacle. I hadn't realized that's the forum I was in. I simple did a search for newbie guide to try and find a guide that would best inform me of the basics and whatnot. Looking at the forum that I'm in though I see I'm in Champion . That's likely why it doesn't work . My first character is Prethena though and the character I'm currently playing is named Narea.

Yeah... BMT will be able to answer any questions you have, but in regards to events for badges, Monsters, Task/Strike Forces, those are announced for Champion server mainly.
