Secret Handshakes!!!

Oh crap, I forgot to preface that. If you're not a defender don't read the previous line. This is serious classified Defebcer business.

Did you stop reading? Good. Okay, we all know that Defenders are a secret society that controls everything. It was nice to see that we completed our long struggle to get that silly tanker Statesman out of power, and we finally have a Defender (Positron) running the show. It's a bit sad that we had to concede some power to Blasters, with Castle being the powers guy and Jlove controlling costumes (undisputably the most important anything ever), however the lead designer is one of us, making Defenders the dominant archetype kthx. Time to rub it in.

My idea is to give defenders elaborate secret handshakes. Each primary combination will get thier own hand shake. It will come in the form of a power that is only available when your vigilance bonus is at 100% or more. The animations will have to be short and sweet, so that the lesser folk to catch wind of it. I imagine something like this:

Quote:
Tanker: Herding to here!
Blaster: Okay, I will help aggroing another group entirely.
Scrapper: That sounds like fun, I shall also ruin everything.
Controller: How do I leave atlas park?

At this point the defenders share a quick glance. They know what's about to happen, as their bodies have been longing for this moment ever since they found themselves united on this pug. As they lung forth to each other they embrace, hands clasping like a formal business meeting. They feel each other's shiny leather gloves as their forearms slide up one another and their elbows lock. Only then do they break eye contact, knowing at this very moment they must dosey doe like they've never dosey doed before.

Kheldian: CYST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On the scale of usefulness, I can see this being just a little bit less useful than having a keybind that randomizes your keybinds, but it's still better than current vigilance.

That was a lot to go through for the simple point made in the last part of the last line.

Besides, they wouldn't dosey-doe. They'd mix up a fruit salad.

How about an elaborate series of baseball signs?
