3 years? Really?

Yep, according to my SG rosters, it has been 3 years since I last logged into CoX. I saw an ad for Going Rogue at gucomics' site (or was it pvponline?), and started reading. Next thing I knew, I was DLing the client and reupping for another month. SOMETHING I did made Cryptic happy, cause next thing I knew, I had codes for a free month and a 30-day jetpack(?) in my email. Flew around a bit, got the bug fixed with the base and messed with that a bit, converted about 800 scraps into brain trust thingys, and realized I had no idea what my powers did . I've read about most of the Issues released since I was last here (can't wait to mess with the architect stuff), and got a lot more reading to go, but just wanted to say hiyas.

*reads the forum guidelines*

Guess I should point out that I play solely on Justice, back in the day my mains were Flaminatrix, Whitestar, and (with the intro of CoV) Stella Void, the middle one I was amazed still had his name. Did they never enact the "clear out old names" thingy?

Sorta kinda yes. It wasn't a name purge (names on inactive accounts for characters under 6th level were flagged as available...meaning that the name wasn't removed from the character unless someone with an active account claimed the name). Also, it was a temporary measure. You can find details on the current name reservation policy and previous incarnations of the policy here

Stella Void sounds very familiar. In any case, welcome back to CoH!

Welcome back. Feel free to join the global chans JFA2010 and Justice United. There are plenty of helpful people on both that can get you caught up to speed on things that might be different from when you last played, plus player events/raids are usually posted in the MOTD.

Get off my lawn...I mean welcome back.

Thanks for the welcomes! Joined both channels, cleared out all the old salvage in my bases, got to play my tanker some. I forgot how much FUN he is to play, with 5 baddies beating on him and him just laughing it off.

Been about a week now, and finally felt confident enough in my tanking abilities to join a TF group (my first grouping in 3 years!). We did the Ouroboros TF, and I had a blast! I don't remember EVER having to fight 3 AVs at the same time, but after we wiped a couple times and lost our other tanker to LD, we figured out a good strategy and ended up finishing the fight with zero defeats!

Yeah, I'm having a good time.

Just wait till you discover IO's and get your tank up to speed. It just gets better and better!

Umm, they had IOs before I left He may not have the high end 100M inf cost IOs slotted, but he does quite well with what he has. I finally DID come up with an idea for a Mission Architect storyline last night though (is there an abbreviation for that? I figure MA is taken by the Martial Artists).

AE and MA are both used for the Mission Architect stuff. Context usually keeps things unconfused with regard to Martial Arts.

I have a feeling this won't be the last person to rediscover COX.

Cryptic does not own the game anymore. Welcome back!


Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.
