Praetorian Surge favorite moments

My favorite moment, and unedited screenshot, of the night (click on image for full size):



On Freedom there were Heroes, Vigilantes, and Rogues battling against the Praetorian Surge invasion AND a Rikti invasion at the same time in Founders Fall. Very, very fun!



A close second was fending off the Big Foot stuck in the ceiling of City Hall in Atlas Park 2.





A couple other fun shots came from the post-invasion party in Pocket D after finishing the mop-up below Atlas statue.

First, trying to get in...



Once in I snagged some glamour shots with NCsoft_Avatea and Soaring Hero, plus a sample of the big crowd as everyone waited (more or less) patiently for the Community Team to make their rounds. Thanks, Avatea, for the shiny title!









A big THANK YOU to all the red names and players who made this event such a fun and special occasion. Happy 7th Anniversary, City Of Heroes!



What were your favorite moments?

Emperor Cole saying Null the Gull pooped on his throne!
And Zwilinger announcing that we hit 4,000+ participants! And the Neuron/Anti-Matter bickering in Atlas.


to TO THE END!
Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!

That was good, I liked when Emperor Cole threatened to turn this invasion around and go home if they couldn't behave.

Null the Gull is many kinds of amazing.

I think your insults upset Emperor Cole as much as him minions bickering, GG. He left quite the mess behind.

Besides abandoning a large number of his armed citizens all over in places like Grandville, Atlas Park 4 (reports of 6 copies of Neuron left behind so Tyrant must have been really annoyed), stuck in Founders' Fall rivers...



... plus loitering around the streets. Can you spot all sixteen Mobile Artillery?



Then there is the irregular green laser lingering in Mercy Island.



Close-up.



Portals litter the area by Blue Steel in Kings Row. No wonder the Paragon Police Department needs super-powered help when those things are camping their front door.



Like a sour cherry on a cake, one of those portals is parked atop the flagpole of City Hall in Altas Park 5.



Close-up.



Tsk. Not only is he a Tyrant, he's a messy houseguest, too.

These stiff-armer types can't stand being mocked - and vowing revenge then running away doesn't really make me think he's more dangerous than any of the other supervillains we've fought so far

What was the green laser? I had RL commitments, so couldn't attend.

I'm not sure, SuperOz. Was in FF and AP myself for the event.

Hours later when I logged in again, people were talking about various strange sightings, so I went on a screenshot hunt. In spite of spending over an hour trying to get good angles and timing on the green pillar, I've no idea what triggers it.

Coolio. I know this hammers the servers, but I wouldn't mind seeing more world events tied to ongoing storylines. Diminishes the gap between what happens in Trials/TFs and the like from the game world, which often seems static and unchanging.

I got it on both accounts and logged off.
