Welcome home! One thing you'll find is that leveling is actually a lot faster on Homecoming than it used to be back on live—in part because you can get double-XP for free, from the P2W store, and the "Experienced" patrol XP packs in the Super Packs (which can now be bought for Influence rather than real money). Granted, using double XP means that you don't earn Inf while using it, but there are other ways around that. 

 

I strongly recommend you read the guides I wrote, linked from my signature below. A lot of them were written based on things I found out after playing again for a while, and wished someone had told me about sooner!

THANK YOU!  I will -- I plan on spending quality time in Paragon this weekend....and not much else!

Folks are usually pretty helpful in the game, and I seldom see people with needless expectations of other players. Don't worry about feeling green, I'm sure you'll have a friendly time.

 

Welcome back!

LOL -- I was a little taken aback by how 'rusty' I was -- and how much technology has changed in the...ah...several years since I last played. (My laptop handles it quite well -- just not a favorite of the small screen). 

 

The guy I used to play with had keybinded me up all good, and I need to do that again...need to get a decent mouse for other stuff....and a longer cord so I can use my TV.  But was so surprised how some stuff came back pretty quickly, and in other instances...I felt like 'Dayum I am never gonna pick this up!'

 

But had so much fun flying around Atlas and doing the low level missions....running into walls and jumping....can't wait to get back to the game for a longer period because I haven't had that much fun in years! (I was a little disappointed I am going to my SO's tonight for dinner and TV -- I want to stay home and get reacquainted with my old friends.  lol)

I've never seen a team turn away a defender.

And with the Weekly Strike Targets you'll get around half a level of XP at completion (once per week for each character).

Yeah -- I played with my then fiancé -- we didn't find a legion to join until we'd been playing for several months.  Once we got a group and joined group missions, it was pretty easy -- but getting to level 30 seemed to take forever when I was just paling around with a tank.

Welcome back! As for getting your old characters back, that isn't possible, but you can certainly remake them from scratch and level them up!

WAAAHHHHHHH!  lol  Dayum -- because it was an absolute bitch getting a healer to 50 (Even though I generally teamed with a tank...but Amanda was squishy until she got her super electric powers.)

 

I seriously look forward to getting back into game and getting acquainted with players and teaming up again  -- but, if y'all see me in game..please understand I am a damned near N00b again....so if you wave and I don't wave back or something...it's not personal...I am just super green again I fear and am gonna be relearning stuff.  lol

 

But OMG can't wait -- I wanna get my controller back (I had just gotten a fire controller that had the little fire minions and I freaking LOVED playing that.)

[OMG! So Happy!]

I recently started semi-dating a gamer (different game), and was telling him over the weekend how I used to play CoH and LOVED it (Had a level 50 healer and Scrapper)

 

Googled some stuff when I got home last night out of nostalgia and WHA.....HOW DID I NOT KNOW IT HAD BEEN REBORN!?!??

 

Was So Exited I downloaded the stuff and can't wait to get home.  Would love to get my 50 girls back in action, but doubt that's gonna be.  Plus...my gamer skills are pretty dusty, so I may need to just level my new peeps up just to learn the ropes again.

 

But so excited to start again, and appreciate there's a community to help out so I can get my sea legs back!
