Wow. A redname commented. Don't I feel special now.
I quite like what we've got in this thread, it shows a lot of variety. Really, it's to be expected, though. There's a lot of different playstyles, and so people will be seeing different jawdropping moments.
Take me, for example. Accidentally started an EU account, so everyone played in a different time zone, and preferred to play characters that had a good concept behind them. Never really got into the invention system.
The result is a lot of characters with solo moments, that aren't that powerful compared to other powersets. And you know what? I didn't mind. So what if a stone armour tank blows my ice out of the water? I haven't played stone, I've played ice, and simply standing in an 8x mob of whatevers deflecting every attack is a lot of fun to watch. Force/dark might be a horrible combination, but she was my second hero to 50. I might not have ever taken an overkill fire/fire brute into a farm mission to slaughter everything for tickets, but I've had my radiation blaster nuke high level freakshow just for the hell of it.
Keep it up, guys. Heroes (and villains) to the end!

But! The contact told me to go talk to Lord Recluse himself, so that I could tell him about how I kicked his butt in the future. That conversation triggered the end of the arc, which gave me the story completion XP bonus, which gave me a very satisfying DING. Might be the best timing I've had for a level. Certainly for hitting 50. |

I remember crashing freedom server when I herded the entire east and south streets of perez park into a container so my low level buddy could shadow punch the whole lot. Your screen sure does some wacky things when that many mobs try and jump into one place. I remember him saying he went up 7 bars with one punch.
I didn't log on for a few days after that. Just expected to get banned or something but it never happened.
They gave mobs collision after that and put limits on how many could have aggro.
Not exactly a crowning moment but more of a confession.
Gaining the "Master of Lord Recluse Strike Force" badge on my main.
