Simply, if you dislike over the top, light vomit graphics that take over your entire screen - city of heroes is not the game for you. I don’t think any group I’ve ever been in over the last 20 years has been any different and all of the effects are intrusive. That’s the game - nobody should turn any powers off for you - move on.

I was just thinking about that channel today and reminiscing about how great that was - I miss that sort of channel in the game now.

Often in these discussion, especially with the scapegoat that is Empathy these days, the conversation is always how “relevant” a powerset is. A well played Empathy Defender is far and above more useful than a poorly played any-other-defender and the same can be said of any AT - whilst yes, healing is not seen as overly relevant in end game this is another generalisation that Empathy is a “healer only powerset” - it isn’t. People play CoH in many ways, and on my server ‘end game’ content is run once a week, not every day, and as such is not exactly crucial to keep in mind. There is more to this 20 year old game than what’s considered the current best spec. Everything is viable, and your own enjoyment is essentially the most important thing when considering powerset choices. Empathy is not dead, and it is absolutely valid to enjoy the powerset.

A few favourites of another of my green-skinned heroes, Morgana Nightshade.

A few examples of the art I have generated for my 7ft Alien, Radostina 👽

Don’t worry. Anyone saying these kinds of things whilst playing CoH are absolutely bizarre and highlight that they haven’t got a clue.

I'm searching for an end game build for Symphony/Sonic - having searched for one around the forums, and discussed it a little over on discord. I'm finding lots of Symphony advice for Dominators, but less so for a Controller. /Sonic on a controller is a little confusing to build for me, feeling a little underwhelming and difficult in it's niche to not over-build for personal resistances. All help and advice, or builds appreciated.

Lady Euro "In varietate concordia - united in diversity." To continue with some Eurocentric heroes rather than American themed I wanted to make a character that was based around the Flag of Europe.

England's Rose "For Queen and Country!" Based on the English Flag, derived from Saint George's Cross. I wanted to make a UK patriotic hero that was visibly "English".

Hello Defiant pals! I played Sweet Stuff - Empathy/Psy Defender and my main SG affiliation was the Awfully Nice Chaps.
