Surveying the Badges
My favorite badge is Tank (on the M1 statue in Galaxy City). All my tanks get it right off, and its the only badge they ever wear.
Most pain in the *** badge (at least of the ones I bother getting) would have to be the Illusionist one. Farming for that one was always one colossal pain in the keester.

What is your favorite badge?
-Why?(Optional)
Mistress of Olympus. I like giant monsters, and Kronos is my favorite of them. On top of that, I think it sounds cool even without the context. It's my default badge title, although most of my characters who have it have moved on to different badges.

Lots of them. I have a particular dislike for the healing badges, which I have some progress toward on my blaster that I have no idea where it came from. And my emp, who admittedly soloed a good portion of the way to 50, only has one.
What is your favorite badge?
Originally it was Seeker of Monsters due to me bein' on the hunt for GMs, but it's most recently been Immortal because it's really the only badge that I wanted in the end.
What badge, in your mind, is a pain to get?
See above for Immortal. Original Immortal, not the cakewalk people have now.

The badge I treasure most is Heat Seeker, from the Arachos Flyer. This is because that badges represents a lot of fun, hard work and history:
A month after Issue 7 appeared a gang of villains got the badge. It was the first time I met Threnody (Bronx) and I was sad since I only missed it by a few seconds because of a very slow load. I ended up camping the spawn point for hours on end each day for a couple of weeks after that, but had no luck.
I spent two weeks on the Test Server studying the Flyer(s), after server resets. I mapped the routes, published the maps for players and spent long long days watching for it to spawn on Champion. I evne had a "Flyer Hunter" costume!
I invented the rumour that the Flyer was exploitable, to try and get the Devs to fix it. At the one year anniversary of Issue 7 I pushed for a fix to the Flyer and made the top item on the community digest. Ghost Widow promised to implement a fix, and it was done in a month.
When Issue 9 appeared I was bored one day at camped the GV Tower force field. All of a sudden the Flyer appeared and I fell INSIDE the tower. I was stuck there for 5 minutes before finding a way out, by which time it was too late to defeat the Flyer
After being so obsessed for a long time, one morning I simply logged into GV, found the Flyer, grabbed a quick team and FINALLY defeated it.
The badge I dislike the most is the Master of the LRSF. Not simply because I don't have it. More because I felt it devalued the normal LRSF badge, which I was really proud of back in Issue 7-9. Also, I know for sure that I've done it with no temps or deaths on a team several times, but those were all before the badge existed. Same for the MoLGTF.

Hello Champs! I was skulking around the forums when I saw a post by Si asking BigMoney their favorite badge and biggest pain in the tin badge, I got to thinking and I've never seen a thread asking that.. Sooo:
What is your favorite badge?
-Why?(Optional)
What badge, in your mind, is a pain to get?
-Why?(Optional)
I'll start:
Favorite Badge:
I think it'd have to be Silent Sentinal. I love the way it sounds and I had a character once based around the badge. Or Bright Star if I'm playing on my Katana/SR
Biggest Pain:
It would have to be High Pain Threshold, no pun intended either. I don't know how villain badgers did it before the damage badge switch to Ironman/Ironwoman, it took me forever farming damage on my Brute to get it. I think most of the villain side accolades are pains.
