Devs hate heroes
@Doctor Gemini
Arc #271637 - Welcome to M.A.G.I. - An alternative first story arc for magic origin heroes. At Hero Registration you heard the jokes about Azuria always losing things. When she loses the entire M.A.G.I. vault, you are chosen to find it.
Didn't you know that it's more fun to be a Villian then a Hero...?

But Blueside has War Witch and The Vault.

"Drunk tigers"--- whereabouts are they? Did they come in with the last patch?
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
The drunk tigers are those feline raver guys who show up from time to time on the Redside ever since the Animal Pack, also the Redside has a vault too.

This is where something more interesting than my global and this sentence would be.

Redside also has a tailor, in the Tiki room.

Maybe they could add a store to blueside (or just expand the Arena vendors to be a full service store).
Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?

May I suggest Blueside Pocket D on Virtue?
There's always plenty of...content...there .

Never been to D on Virtue, but I've heard the stories. If it's as bad as some people say, I find it interesting that a Red name refers to it. And that they don't seem to mind it.
I wasn't aware that stating the existence of an alternative was the same as expressing a preference or opinion.

Feel free to not.

While I'm sure that there are hijinks afoot within the RP community on Virtue, I meant that in all sincerity. The RP folks on Virtue are wonderful at creating their own rich and vibrant content, regardless of the presence of a few NPC's |

Not exactly sure why they'd try to stop anything that isn't a violation of the Code of Conduct or EULA, but whatevs.

Was on a team not too long ago with someone who said they were playing their first Kheldian, and any time a Void Stalker showed up on the map he would scream "VOID! GET IT PLZ!" like we were honor-bound to save him from death. And if he died it was our fault.
Nope, whoever thought up Kheldians didn't love heroes, if you ask me. Which you didnt, just sayin'.

I just find it hilarious he needed someone else to kill it for him. Only time they've ever given my kheldians serious trouble is when I failed to spot them in a mob.

I think Pocket D might just need more content period. I mean it's a social experience sure. But it's kind of dull outside the Winter and Spring events, and it would be the perfect place for a summer and ANOTHER Halloween event (Ghost Widow could be your host... You GHOST Host).
Also, it could use more music... Maybe Paragon Studios could get in with Toyota and we could get a performing Hatsune Miku (or any of the other Vocaloids) to add some music to the D... Or RPTN, or Daft Punk.
Or just have the music cycle through more track remixes from the game so it's not the same thing ad nausea.

I do not know if it is still the case, but once a team had a Kheld on it, the game always treated the team as having a Kheld on it until it disbanded, which led to the aforementioned Fun With Unbound Nictii on teams without a Kheld.
I always pop the Voids and other anti-Kheld personnel first as both a courtesy and a show of solidarity. Heroes gotta stick together, 'cause Devs hate heroes.

"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
Redside has a tiki lounge, drunk tigers, the Holiday Chalet, and a time altering seagull. While Blueside has a place where monkeys fight and that's it. So we need more content on the Blueside... of Pocket D.
