The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
I expect much weeping and gnashing of teeth when new players try the Apex/Tin Mage TFs.
Bah!! ITF is the week after Spring Break, during Exams. I can't catch a break with the WTF at all.

They will probably just reuse some sfs once they run out of them.
The WST list for March despite the ITF doesn't impress me.
But every tf will be getting its time in the sun, so not much complaint from me.
EDIT: I will admit I like tin mage so that week will be good for me too. The others (besides the ITF) meeeeeeeeeh.
Blazara Aura LVL 50 Fire/Psi Dom (with 125% recharge)
Flameboxer Aura LVL 50 SS/Fire Brute
Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank
Darq Widow Fortune LVL 50 Fortunata (200% rech/Night Widow 192.5% rech)--thanks issue 19!

Kinda nice of the devs to wait 'til everyone can have their extra-leet gear before handing out Apex and Tin Mage (I totally expected them to be the first two). My first two Incarnates will be done with collecting Notices this week, but I'm definitely looking forward to getting to try the new TFs on a group with my souped-up peers.
And my next two Incarnates will definitely appreciate 3 of the 5 being lower-level stuff they can use to help reach 50 and start the process.
I'm surprised to see the Apex and Tin Mage TFs on the list. I assumed they wouldn't qualify for WSTs since they're Incarnate-only content. I know one of the big draws are getting Notices, but non-Incarnate characters get WST bonuses too. I'm planning to take a couple characters in the 20-30 range through the Sister Psyche/Silver Mantis WSTs.
And this once again shows how little villains have compared to heroes..once we done all ours..what it stops or recycles? i dont mind recycling..but villains need more sf's come on devs.

Heroes outnumber Villains 3 to 1. We joke that "the Devs hate Villains"; but do you know who else hates Villains? The players.
It was in the cards long ago that developing Villain-only content was not efficient use of Dev time. The only new Villain-only content that has been taking place and will take place in the future is maybe a single arc (e.g. Vincent Ross) or content that can be re-purposed to have a hero-analogue (like the two Reichsmans [Kahn and Barracuda]).
Now, with side-switching from Going Rogue, Villains-become-Rogues have access to almost all the Hero-side content, including even starting Task Forces.
So.... unlikely to happen.

Only if they are like the original 4 SFs with the Epic last missions. That's the main reason I am not much on the Hero TFs. Fighting Clamour in the Sewer, Fighting a Crey AV in a Suit in a Warehouse.|

And lets not forget all shard TFs and Synapse are redundant. Nothing says fail like going to 10+ zones and fighting grays like in Numina.

I wonder if the respec trials would be part of this rotation. Since they made merits and got rid of trial and TF drops, they are pretty much the same thing except for the special selectable reward.
Why do i have that feeling that i20 wont be until at least April now?

Imperious Task Force. This'll be fun 
I was doing some playthroughs of City of Heroes. Now they will serve as memories of a better time ...

Maybe they'll make the four Shadow Shard TFs coop and make them the WSTs for April!
Edited to add that I would genuinely be in favour of this.

You can have Synapse, Citadel and Manticore. Here you go. Ignore the smell and enjoy running the same ******* mission over and over again. Who cares about recycling a TF when you can run a TF which recycles the one, dull radio-like mission ad nauseum.

I ran a KHTF in 40 minutes the other day, compared to some other TFs that's still pretty quick.

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

You are not the only one. I understand that there are more problems with opening up the Shard, but I would like to think they could be managed in an easy manner.|

Of course, I think the real problem is, they don't like the situation the shard is in either, and opening up the Shard to both sides will just draw more attention to it. A content revamp there is really necessary for it to progress. But, well, that's an expensive endeavor that isn't as likely to have the same fun return as the RCS revamp.
Although, re-enabling Rularuu invasions would be fun.

Oh you have to be kidding
Even just street sweeping the mobs in the shadow shard is awesome, i personally LOVE the different types of enemies they have and i cannot wait until they are used more often.I'll even go as far to say that a large majority of players have never/not much experience fighting them. If a shadow shard revamp did happen ala RCS/Fault, then i could see it being one of the best zones potentially in the game.
Edit: Does need a zone event too
