[Hibernate?]

Its not bad at all. Taunt just before you use it to keep some aggro on you and heal to full. Used to be the ultimate afk tool back in the day when there was no 30 second limit on it. Ice has big gaps in its protection so great healing helps mitigate that.

[Bad Build Decisions You're Willing to Admit To]

Back on live I didn't take tough and weave on my ice tank, I took manuvers. That's a mistake I didn't repeat.

[Dual Builds - Do You Use Them?]

For my main I have my tanking and proc monster builds. Once I can be bothered I'm going to make a tankroller sort of build. Presence pool, earth epic and psi melee as a solid base for it.

Perusing builds and reading about the things we're getting away with now shows me that ship sailed a long time ago.

I knew someone would say that. What I basically mean is Elder Gods, worse gods etc. Lets not have the game get even more silly in that regard.

[Will the rest of the incarnate powers ever be unlocked?]

I like having the incarnate system as we needed some sort of endgame. That said I don't think it should be taken any further. Things are easy enough as it is and I wouldn't want to see that getting worse by basically becoming gods.

I have an Ice Axe tank and shes absolutely brutal

Is that with or without an expensive build? I'm finally getting around to saving for and expensive build for mine (about time, was my old main on live) and he's far weaker than my other tanks when comparing standard IO builds.

I must be having a senior moment. I don't recall the servers merging. I remember they made Exalted, the VIP server...but no recollection of servers being removed/merged. 

 

Now I'm starting to doubt my memory. I'm sure I remember a merger. Somehow my name did get changed and not in a generic hero way.

[I have fans!]

When the servers merged back on live I was changed to Axewrath1. ☹️ Other than that I doubt I'll see another TK Cavalier running around.

I just made Eddie (Iron Maiden's Mascot) as a Thugs/Dark. 

Bruiser = Bruce Dickinson

Leuts = Steve Harris, Nicko McBrain

Minions = Dave Murray, Adrian Smith, and Janick Gers

 

His first costume is as close as I could get as I could to Killers album cover. I'm planning to make a stranger in a strange land cover, and several others as I figure them out.

 

As a massive Maiden fan I'd love to see your Eddie.

[How to improve tank damage]

I have Gaussian's in buildup so it procs 9/10 times. Very handy to know when the buff is coming, too.

[Why do people say Poison needs help?]

No one mentioning Masterminds? On live I had Necro/Poison and that single target healing was a full time job in itself. So much fuss I've rerolled him as Demons/Thermal now.

[Post your best costume designs here!]

My main, The TK Cavalier. Or Patriotic Hero 187 since there's loads running around. 🙃

 

 

I posted an old pic of him in this thread one or two years ago but these are much improved imo.

[Do you give unsolicited advice?]

I wouldn't do it as there's a chance it would annoy people. Also you've no idea if that build is their main, solo or weird experimental build. So odd choices may not be odd to them.

 

I know having things pointed out would annoy me, if it happened repeatedly that is.

^--this

 

When I rolled my Ice/Axe tank on Live it was before the IO (and long before the Incarnate system), and he was frustrating as hell, being used to maining a Stone tank.  With no DDR, even low level CoT were a problem.  I made it to 50 (because I'm a stubborn fool who tries to never give up), but then shelved him and never played him, again.

 

I'm intrigued with ice melee, however, and may just roll a WP/Ice or Inv/Ice, instead.

 

My first tank/main was Ice/Axe, too. It was fun but also frustrating at times. Again it was pre IO's but now some of those holes can be plugged. Oh and I also picked super speed when we couldn't buy jetpacks. Made things very hard on myself lol.

[Is defeat just an inconvenience?]

I feel a bit miffed.

[What If?! We only got one character..]

Shield/Psi Tank

Illusion/Storm Controller

[Haven’t played anything but Brutes and Scrappers for years, what can I do that’s totally different in terms of gameplay?]

Controllers. You'll also get more impressive looking powers that way, too.

[What is your favorite update, bugfix, or change Homecoming has made to CoX?]

The Tank changes. Sorted all of my psi melee issues.

[Name suggestions]

Cool Dude?

[Don't bro. M0r3 p0w3rZ]

Not seen him in a long time but on Excelsior there was a hero by the name of Knockdown Town. He even put in his bio that he specifically knocked down, not back. Sure fire sign if ever there was one that its so hated.

[One extra power]

You read my mind. Been thinking about this on and off. Has to be Propel. Fits my telekinetic Tank to a T and wouldn't make him op.

[What Lore pets do you take? And why?]

I wanted proper Clockwork. 😟

 

Aside from that I took Longbow because of the cool mech and Arachnos because I already had a Widow in my build.

[New Badges for things I was going to do anyway]

As sad as this is to admit, I may have already unlocked Rail Rider.🥴

[What keeps you playing 1 chaarcter?]

Its my favourite AT (Tank)

Has two of my favourite power sets

I can farm with him (although not as efficiently as fire spines)

I don't have a character concept that limits the costumes I can have

[Sell me on "Leaves you drained of endurance" powers]

They're good if you can finish the fight in the time limit or have plenty of blues.
