No. But the most populated server is Excelsior. A lot of players use Vigilante so they/we can swap sides and do more content.

It was always maintained by Tony V throughout retail and "sunset" and it was donated by him to HC. He did all the hard work.

Dubious GFX cards/settings ?

I was spreading the joy in December. I'd recently won a cossie comp and promptly gave away more than I'd won over the month. Just before we went legit. I'll donate again to people like Capt Canada and Afriki et al.

Incorrect.

Yeah, immediate drop is the TG then debuffs and perma TG

This makes Dark possibly the most attractive support ability, to me.

Do what you enjoy when you can play. Putting pressure on yourself, rather, if I put pressure on myself to get the things it would remove some enjoyment. Most of what you wil require will come organically whilst you play higher end content anyway. Then after a little while see what you're missing. All of it is easy to get.

Which goes to show your increasing game knowledge.

No, I utilise all 6 slots in health and all 6 in stamina for set bonuses, there are a multitude of options to slot both, peruse the IO wiki page to choose your own. Horses for courses. I don't give advice, that's a dangerous thing to do. Nor do I make sweeping uninformed judgements on minimal to zero information.

I pore over the IO page in the wiki (here) - I got enough to do, that keeps me afloat - I don't need a test bed - my character is a test bed - when it's slotted right it shows, numbers don't tell real world operability and with each new toon I pore over the IO wiki page again and again - but I don't think I should be telling you how to build your toons because my way work's for me, my way obviously doesn't work for you because you are here arguing the toss of my 20 year proven methodology. TOP TIP - ability take 6 slots, not 10. EDIT: Your point is incorrect. You don't have the information that you think you do. I only expressed my staple slotting so that I can benefit from my chosen set bonuses which far outweigh lesser useful bonuses. My 'game life long' anecdote which has occurred from retail to as recently as yesterday is that even with 2 tanks and 2 brutes on a team I am so well slotted by learned experience that I predominantly am the highest threat on most teams I play on. More so now with the recent boost in popularity.

You're going to have to define what a "good team" and what a "bad team" is to get a response out of me.

Make a badge for it....

Not going to happen, this is a game not a job, I get by very well with it. You play by numbers all you want to. If I played by numbers it would suck all of the creative joy from the game.

That's where I am on this argument. The devotee of any game gets the goodies when they first arrive, why should CoH be different. I was here securing my chosen names from the beginning, where were you (latecomer) whilst I've been supporting my game? I don't hoard names either, except for a minimal amount I wish to later develop. It is not unknown even on live that there existed name blockers. Some of those blockers sold names just like internet 1.0 do and have always done due to the non fungibility of names there and here.

It might just work...

One staple I have in slotting is six slotting health and stamina on every toon. End can deplete immediately so I have to mitigate that, apart from that anything goes which will facilitate a more effective toon.

I've never seen my surname in any game, I don't expect to. Oddly it isn't even a part of the local culture in my hemisphere. Now that could explain some oddity about my biology! I don't expect to see my name in a game in my lifetime. Now, depending on how randy future 'same named' people are they could spawn a game developer one day with my name who would want to see their name in a game so...

Ooh you noticed it too, I noticed it yesterday. Dichotomic feelings 😜
