Tanking with a Tanker is so different than tanking with a Brute. With Brutes - With the Villain ATs - It's assumed everyone can more or less hold their own. Brutes tank as a consequence of being the guy with all the armour and damage. But Tankers are designed specifically to hold aggro. It's so different for me, in CoH/CoV. I'm so used to just being a Brute, doing my thing and letting everyone else mop up.

I tanked last night, first time, in a team. I remembered what I read here, "Shutup and take the alpha." Seemed to work pretty good. Tried to Taunt stragglers.

Inv/SM

Bloody Diabolical!

I had an SS/Ea on live. He was my main. I loved Energy Cloak and the teleport resist for PvP. But EA has a HUGE Psi hole and, at later levels, it really sucks.

Well, that is just badass

I think the new forums are pretty.

Black Empire Old Man Weston Pit Shark Ocean Mariner Released!

I don't really play Blueside. There is too much, the zones are too big. And, honestly, I feel more like an outsider in life, always have. My toons are Rogues, Villains and Vigilantes, at best. Although I lived many years on Azeroth, The Rogue Isles are home.

It's down to just 2 million subscribers and is expected to drop again with the next expansion as it always does. Three quarters the population of Toronto, ON. The most populated city in Canada. That's two million people. Even if half those accounts are doubled, that's still 1.5 million people. That's a lot of people. At this rate it'll probably dip under 1 million by the next expansion when Blizzard has another player alienating whoopsie do. And there probably won't be one after that because Blizzard will probably end up EA'd to death by Activision given that it's been a PR laughing stock that's struggled to meet Activision's increasingly delusional expectations of having a Fortnite level endlessly monetizable blockbuster megahit in every genre. Even if the subscriptions dips below 500 000 people, that's still a lot of subscribers. Any time someone points out that "WoW is dying" I can't help but wonder what that person considers "low subscribers?" I live in a city of 130 000 people. That's a lot of people.

Ah, yes, Rule #2 Double Tap

^THIS The most respectful answer I've heard that accommodates for fans of both games. Because, you can be a fan of WoW and CoH. That's allowed.

I have several alts; the highest level character i have is level 40. For me, I loved 50 Content. I also missed Incarnates so I'm eager to get into that, too. BUT, I'm really enjoying the leveling process. The nostalgia factor. That music in Port Oakesand Cap and Sharkhead when you get around the Pit. I've dreamed of that music since the game shuttered. I'm loving the leveling experience, thus the alts. It's been said: diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks.

I don't get any of that from Phil's posts. My best friend taught me: You have read texts/messages/posts in as bland a voice as possible. You cannot know where the person intended inflection. Italics and Bold just don't do justice. Neither do emojis.

Make yourself a Vigilante or Rogue and do Paper Missions in Grandeville. Or make yourself a Rogue/Villain and do Paper Missions until you can get some contacts and do Villain storylines. Or roll a new alt.

Sounds a lot like Grindr. Just don't take it personally: Ghosting happens. You will drive yourself insane wondering why someone stopped talking to you. Welcome to the 21st century, Phil. I always answer people in-game and, if engaged in conversation, will always respond. The key to interacting with people in the 21st century, the key to finding friends, is finding people who are as like-minded as you.

I play for the lore. I love Warcraft lore. I've read all the books, all the comics, I have all the Compendiums. Questing is my favourite activity in WoW. All my characters have full backgrounds (thank-you City of Heroes/Villains). What's going on with this current expansion is so fascinating. I really like the direction the game is heading. I've been playing pretty much non-stop since Wrath. I just can't play anymore. But I still check MMO-Champion and Wowhead, weekly. Also: Even if every expansion the game subscriber base is halved - as has been said - That is still millions and millions of subscribers. World of Warcraft still has a massive subscriber base. Not a lot of MMOs can say they have players in the millions.

I'm surprised there aren't more water-based costumes and heroes/villains. Paragon City is a coastal urban center...And the Rogue Isles, obviously.

City of Villains was an expansion of City of Heroes. An opportunity for the Devs to take what they learned from the playerbase and player response to the Hero ATs and apply it to new ATs. A lot of the Villain ATs are designed to be soloable. Back in 2005, the Devs had the foresight to see that MMOs were heading towards a solo mentality, conversely, when CoH launched, MMOs were still in their heyday and content was designed to be grouped with others. These days, most MMOs have a soloing component to them. So, yeah, Villain ATs are favoured because they can be soloed. That being said, that we can choose whatever side we want at character launch means there really isn't any "Hero" or "Villain" AT.

Pop Culture references. Still in production. Swimming/underwater. Lore.

Playing DM/Bio. Level 34 right now. Question: Can I slot for ToHit Debuff and let Fury + Offensive Adaption + Genetic Contamination do the Damage work?

Sonicshadow Shadowsonic Sanctimonious Grim Tracer All released into the wild.

I loved Brutes and I still love Brutes. I've also expanded my horizons to Corruptors and Dominators. Still a Villain Guy - Just some of my Villain ATs are Heroes now...

I left work yesterday and this thread went ballistic. :o My question was answered on the Discord before it was answered here; I shoulda deleted the thread. My bad. Also: Sexual identity with superheroes: Harley Quinn and the Joker had/have a (really bad) sexual relationship (straight). Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy are/had a relationship (gay). Even superheroes f*ck.
