Heh, I remember a few years ago when my friend still played CoH, his battle cry was "I have no battlecry!"

You know, I've been making "battlecry" binds for years and I've never thought to do this. Although it would have to be "say" not "local," as the real battlecry goes into whatever channel you are currently speaking in, and "local" binds don't show during cutscenes. (I will stop yelling my battlecry during cutscenes when the devs stop forcing us to sit through them repeatedly).

My warwolf adjutant agilo: "I HAS A BOULDER!"

and my blaster austain flame: "CHEREG!" (the retard version of charge, thanks to zero puncuation)

Old SGmate of mine used to have a great one-

"I need an adult!"

My dominator's battlecry is still: "It's time to slay the dragon!"

I have a friend who uses that on Rommy. Way too funny...

I don't really use battlecries all that much. Only got three that I know of... "Party like it's 1699!" for my punk-loving stormy, "QUACK!!!" for my wereduck brute (don't ask) and "Ger off mah island!" for Operative Curmudgeon.

Oh yeh- one other one of mine- my Peacebringer screams "Photon Stupids, AWAY!" whenever I release my... well, I'm sure you can guess. Much love for the retarded glowing tribbles of doom

I quoted this for the teeth-grinding truth of it.

I have a battlecry on one toon that consists of:

(insert clever battlecry here)

A toon that runs a lot of ITFs has:

Yeah, you're NICTUS, we get it.

And another toon has:

EEEEEEEEEMMMUUUUUUU!!!!!!

(long story)

Most of mine are inspiring and valorous!

BUT . . . a couple of my alts are a little more nervous.



BlastClown runs in screaming: "Not in the face !!!"

And ... (see my avatar)
Chocolate Bunny Guy . . yells: "No Biting !!"

(especially the ears!)

(ETA: reading back, I see others have used the same cry as BlastClown.)

Not a battlecry, but one of my tankers did have bound with her taunt, "Come over here and look at my t*ts", since it was the only thing I could think of that would make a gang of thugs all gather round a nubile school girl.

Well, okay, not the /only/ thing, but you get the idea. And it was very funny to watch.

I had to take it off after a while, since I'd keep hitting it by mistake when not in combat, and that kind of sentence randomly inserted into group conversation tended to kill the flow a bit...

When I was in Latin class long ago, we students worked out a translation of our own: Devora Stercum Perique!

Devora: devour, eat eagerly, in the imperative (I order you to do this)
Stercum: human waste
Peri: perish or die, in the imperative
-que: suffix meaning "and"

My defective robot's battlecry is 'ERROR 404: BATTLECRY NOT FOUND!'


Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

My old Dark/Dark would say, "If you have to die, die in a pile!"

And it really was funny to see our blaster run away from the mobs with a couple chasing him, only to get hit and run frantically back to get amongst the rest of us in the thick of things.

My Fire/Rad, Chitzen Giggles, had a good one- "Chit happens!"

I'm making an Elec/Elec Scrapper when I16 comes out.

Name: Not Under Warranty
Bio: It all started with a clothes dryer that wasn't grounded, and a pair of wool socks. Its not an electrifying origin story but it sure shocked Maggie Brown.
Battle Cry: Feel my static cling!

When i played on US servers around release time. I once grouped with...

"The Amazing Butt-Bomb"
And his battlecry was "Aaaah I'm EXPLODING!"

Very distrubing, scarred my mind for life...


Sapphic Neko has the battle cry. "Mew mew style, Mew mew grace, mew mew power in your face!" shamelessly stolen from mew mew power anime (loved it )
Red Dragoness (fire blaster) has the battlecry "Fire, fire, burning higher, making music like a choire!" (stolen from a fantasy movie with tom cruise, his first movie i think? forgot name).
Fluffy Handcuffs uses my mantra from 10 years ago or so. "Pain so close to pleasure..."

Don't think i have any really catchy battlecries for my chars, i tend not to use em.

Oh, I forgot my tank "Conning Purple"

Think "the Tick"... but more obtuse.

"I wouldn't do that... I'm CONNING PURPLE!"
"Villains, tremble in fear. The hero CONNING PURPLE has arrived."
"There's no sense fighting back. I'm CONNING PURPLE!"

He never got past level 3, but he was more fun to play that way.

When I used battlecries, I went with the classics.

"Evil, meet my (weapon/power of choice). (weapon/power of choice), MEET EVIL!"

"GARBAGE DAY!!!"

"Stand back, I'm going to try SCIENCE!"

"Pay attention to me!"

"Don't try this at home, kids! Even though it'll make you popular!"

"Play my story arc!"

Pantastic has "Beast" legs & SuperJump - and I still flinch every time he lands on concrete or asphalt, imagining it must really hurt with no padding.

Bio ends in "...and he woulda already cleaned up Paragon City, too, if it weren't for his aching feets!"

Battlecry: "My feets ache!"

I have a Fire/Mace Tank whose battlecry is "Come Howard, Let's make new friends!"

Howard is what he calls his mace.

He has a rotating taunt bind of which one of the taunts is "Come! Meet Howard, Mace to Face."

I can't play him on team with the people I usually team with though. They forbid me form using him.
