Bad Battle Cry Choices
My first 50 was a Dark/Regen Scrapper. (Mostly because Dark Armor back then sounded like a never-ending dental drill symphony, never mind the endurance costs.) Anyway, for several weeks after hitting 32 and getting Midnight Grasp his battle cry was "Feel my tentacles!"
Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...
One of my blasters cry is"Stercus, moriturus sum!"
It means "Excrement, I'm going to die!"
or somthing along those lines
"If we succeed, no one will remember and if we fail no one will forget!"
This has been widely renowned as a battlecry only one step above "Come on lads, lets get our throats cut!" |
AAAh, more Terry Pratchett. Always a favorite.
I have an emp/archery defender who uses "Don't make me use this!" as a battle cry.

I understand the preferred battlecry on Pinnacle is "I'm so wasted right now!".
On Virtue, it's "What's my RP motivation for this fight and how does it fit into my 30 page backstory?" ;-)
"Someone hold my beer...this is gonna require BOTH hands!!!"
The battlecry space is too small, and I am too uncreative, so a lot of my characters' battlecry is "f10!" just so I have something to yell at Rommy.

My DM/Regen Scrapper's battle cry is, and always has been, "Let me bleed on you". Of course, it sounds like one of those crazy "Don't make me die on you!" battle cries unless you read his bio: the black nastiness around his hands is actually blood seeping out of the pores on his artificial limbs; the blood is sentient (insofar as an "entity" made up of servile nanites can be) and attacks anything that isn't the host (re: my character) and then flows back to be reabsorbed through his feet.
I've had a number of people that gave me strange looks coupled with perplexed messages when I gave my battle cry as I jumped into a full mob because I apparently refused to die when I said I was going to.
I used to have a Tanker who used the "Bio" costume pieces. His battle cry was "This is not my costume!"

"Dark Armor is a complete waste as a tanking set."
I saw one a few days ago which for some unfathomble reason had me questioning my bladder control.

Heh, this is fun. Hmm...
"I lost a contact lens!"
"Are you my mommy?" (though for Dr Who fans it's possibly less silly sounding...)
"Come here and give me a hug."
"Time for a no-toggle fight."
"What does 'Archvillain' mean?" (when on a radio mission)
"Scrapperlock FTW!"
I used to have superhuman powers, but my therapist took them away...

Cauter, my Fire/Fire Scrapper, has this as his battlecry:
"The Burning Sensation has arrived!"
Then while the villains are laughing their ***** off, he goes and arrests them. It works.
"Beware the Milkman, for he will milk you like no other!"
"The Milkman serves his milk at room temperature!"
And stuff.

My blaster's standard battlecry (more of a "ready" statement, really) is "locked and loaded!". Sometimes, I change it up, though.
"I drink your milkshake!"
"This is <insert name of random Greek city-state other than Sparta in ALL CAPS>!"
"I knew I shoulda turned left at Albuquerque!"
"YOUR AD HERE!"

I've got an ice blast/cold domination corruptor on CoV and my battle cry is usually a bad Arnold Schwarzenegger pun from Batman and Robin. (He played Mr. Freeze, in case you're lucky enough not to have seen it)
At the moment it's "Allow me to break the ice!" but I've also had classics such as "Let's kick some ice!" and "You're not sending me to the cooler!"

I don't really use battlecries at all. Though, I do have my Peacebringer, who is a Japanese Magical Girl. I occasionally activate my attack-name and transform binds-
"Two-Handed Glowing Dual Orbital Shining Explosion Strike!"
"Calamari Spirit Guardian, I Summon You!"
"Aspect of the Greater Thick-Skinned Space Lobster!"
My Dark/Dark defender's is
"Scary Skull Powers....ACTIVATE!"
My Ill/Storm's switches between "I need a drink." and "I need MORE AGGRO."
The Way of the Corruptor (Arc ID 49834): Hey villains! Do something for yourself for a change--like twisting the elements to your will. All that's standing in your way are a few secret societies...and Champions of the four elements.
My Elec/Elec brute still uses "Fear my mighty SHOULDER KITTY!" on nearly every use of Lightning Rod.
It's not how many times you get knocked down that count. It's how many times you get up.
