    I like Scrappers, and have several of them.  But they don't have the flexibility of blasters as far as I can see.

     

    I tend to agree with this.  I often feel safer soloing my Blasters as they have a few more control options in their armoury.

     

    If I over reach things on my Scrapper then the ONLY option is run away and rest..

     

    The exception of course is Welsh Dragon, my Fire/Fire Blaster. Now THAT is seat of the pants CoH😂

  2. One guy back in the day used the same character name (basically) on his every alt and archetype.

     

    They were all essentially the same 'character'but wearing different suits of power armour that gave different abilities. Basically like Tony Stark and all his various versions of the Iron Man Armour.

     

    ALL he changed each tme was the end of the name from say "MK I', to 'MK II' and so on.

     

    Quite clever in some ways.

  3. Back in my old days on Union there were Costume Comps all the time in Atlas Plaza,

     

    Practically one every night almost on weekends.

     

    I have seen a few "announced" while I have been back in game so clearly they still happen but not seen one actually run yet.

     

    How common are they now in the game and, where do they happen?

     

    I used to l9ve checking out entries and bios and stuff at them. Some real creative genius on show.

    My kids had amazing luck bagging names on their account:

    • Power Blade
    • Pistol
    • Sunset
    • Energy Blast

    I like to think I've done well too:

    • Hot Lead
    • Max Damage
    • Turmoil
    • Misadventure (x2)
    • Taskforce (x2)
    • Enchanted
    • Borealis
    • Moonless
    • Splash Damage
    • Ceramic
    • Lagrange
    • Beaufort (x2)
    • Scrapperlock
    • Roflstomp
    • Weathered (my most recent snag)

    It's always the one-word names that I'm most pleased to get my hands on.

    I Like some those, good job on them. Especially Lagrange.

    I meant, what name did you get?

     

    Wardenclyffe Tower?

    Tesla's Wardenclyffe?

    Edison's Bane?*

     

     


    *Sucker deserved it. What a jerk!

     

    Ah, sorry, mg confusion.

     

    The character ended up as an automaton Tesla built to guard the tower and as a prototype mechanical police man. A sort of Victorian tech "Robocop".

     

    On the security guard angle I ended up calling him "Warden Wardenclyffe'.

     

    I .like your Edison's Bane suggestion btw. VERY apt.☺👌

  6. Out of interest, the feature in character genetation thatballows younto check and reserve a name.....anyone know how long that reservation lasts?

     

    I would hope it's pretty short as otherwise, names might get checked, end up not used but still locked out when others might like them.

  7. The name I figured would be a shoe in but, was taken was...Wardencyffe.

     

    For those who don't know the origin, it's the tower Nicola Tesla built to try and transmit wireless electricity.

     

    My respects to whoever did bag that name. I hope I run into you in game to see the character concept. I have no doubt it will be a cool one😁

     

    With a bit of concept tweaking and, some more fexibility in my name sesrch, I still got a character I am happy with so, all worked out for me.

  8. Today I went with Water Blast for the first time on an alt.

     

    It's working ok so far, though obviously it's still very early days. But, (probably me being stupid) I can't seem to figure out how Tidal Power is used.

     

    I know certain powers allow you to build up charges of Tidal Power but, I can't seem to find where this  is shown on screen or, how to actually expend them once I have some charges.

     

    Can someone help 'clear the waters'😉 on this for me?
