Zombie Firefighters

I just found the funniest thing in City of Heroes. I kid you not.

So there I was, passing through Steel Canyon when I noticed the orange sky. "Zombie invasion," I immediately thought. But to be honest, I've been fighting hordes of the living dead for weeks now and I'd had my fill. But there was a burning building and I didn't have those badges so I decided to go check it out.

Did you know that zombies will attack fire? They're very enthusiastic about it too, though being undead and combustible and all, they go up like a book of matches and are completely ineffectual, all in all. But still, you gotta give them kudos for trying.

And then the zombies wandered into the mass of Hellions just hanging around... Total chaos, and hilarity, ensued.

Apparently Paragon City's so amazing that even the living dead are civic-minded.

Seriously, if you haven't seen it and get the chance, check it out. It's the funniest thing I've seen in the game.

I have to hang around in Steel Canyon now to see this. Of course, the odds of a zombie invasion and a fire going at the same time probably make it pretty hard to find.


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

sounds hilarious


I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.

Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.

So sad to be ending ):

They probably wanted the badge.

In death as in life, badgers will grind unceasingly for that next shiny.

This sounds like somethings the devs should set-up, video and release to YouTube.

It's not just the Steel Canyon arsons zombies go after, either: The other night I was shooting for the Raver and DJ badges and suddenly had zombies crashing the Troll rave. I quickly discovered that if I held off the cone attacks and thus not aggro the shambling undead, they worked wonders in softening up the trolls and let me defeat them faster. This was only after I weathered a few volleys of painful, -fly inducing projectile vomit, but in the end it worked out.

Next step: see if you can get enough zombies together to take out the Zeus Titan.
