You can get a nice little aoe knockdown from spring attack...

Also bear in mind claws has the best endurance drain (i.e. lowest) of all the secondaries.

Wow! That's interesting, does it mean that pool punches (cross punch, boxing, kick etc) don't have it, or did developers add it to tank pool punches?

That command is specifically to leave a mission once completed. Oh you want the others, too? F9 "requestexitmission 1" CTRL+F9 "quittocharacterselect" SHIFT+F9 "quittologin"

This is what I've got now.... You can see it's got lots of recharge in Rage and Haste, and I didn't know what to do at the end because I ran out of slots - but I was wondering how feasible a non-MoG version might be because I quite like Spring Attack/Cross Punch. Please ignore the stalagmites enhancement - it wouldn't work, because it doesn't do kb, I think* Hero Plan by Mids' Hero Designer 1.962 http://www.cohplanner.com/ Click this DataLink to open the build!

1. Some commercial games don't have as many hardcore fans as CoH. 2. Commercial games shut down very often. You only have to read MassivelyOP to know that! 3. Thus, I recommend that you enjoy it while it's here because it could shut down at any time, just like it was a commercial game.

The big reason to get one character to 50 quickly is that you acquire a lot of inf at 50, also you can start working on an attuned build and ouroboros everything you missed anyway.

People are foolish to write off WP so readily without trying it.

Here is what the bind file for GABB says: F9 "requestexitmission 1"

I would encourage you to pay more attention to the mission texts. I know the lore can be hard to dig out, so perhaps that visibility is something WoW may have done better, but CoH lore is brilliant.

I concur. 8 seems like an awful lot of people nowadays, but way back when it was the standard. I think the small, intimate groups are cool, too. I'd like to see those self- imposed restrictions happen, but if you give people freedom they will take it all and ask for more!

I think the OP was hoping that nobody would reply and thus prove the point, but maybe that's just my love of irony showing.

The trouble with giving people as much freedom as we have in CoX is that we people will, without other information, take it. I think these self-restrictions are pretty cool - but only if you can bring a community of people with a similar mindset. That's why I would suggest this should be organized on a server/supergroup basis, but I like the fact that it's being brought up on a pan-server thread.

I've been tempted to take the entire fighting pool on my tanker, but it's sadly not feasible.

I'm surprised it lets you slot taunt into it because paragonwiki... https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Ice_Armor#Chilling_Embrace ... says it does neither damage (which I presume would trigger Gauntlet's taunt) nor it's own taunt. So I wonder how that works.

Flush Gordon would be punnier...

It IS bindable. Check out Shenanigunner's GABB... http://www.shenanigunner.com/

A renegade plumber? Harry (Harriett?) Tuttle! Paperwork is his(her) weakness: How about Mario...nette? Of course, Victoria Plum is named after the fruit... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_plum ... Which gives you a nice purple colour-scheme to play with, too! Similarly, Mirabelle: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirabelle_plum ...which is a different colour. That one is AKA Cherry Plum, which is another cool name. I know what you mean about having fun names in your character list, for me The Poseidon Avenger recently joined Roger Beepover.

For me, Spring Attack is a nice AoE aggro grabber (doesn't matter because that's not how Gauntlet works), it also provides a way to get through blocked doorways. Best of all, Spring Attack is AoE knockdown which can save you from alpha spike by disrupting several mobs. I really enjoy it. You can also make a macro to have it teleport to your TARGET instead of your ground target. What the macro look like? I would be interested in trying it out. Zolgar gets the credit, I didn't write this: /macroimage Jump_SpringAttack SpringAttack powexeclocation target Spring Attack You don't get cool down indication, so put the regular skill next to it on your bar for that.

I think the Calvin Scott one is hard... the one where he blows up the supervillain volcano at the end! The devs really got good at making missions after a while - once they got over that Tina Macintre and Maria Jenkins guff. Bleh!

I agree - there are already quite a few lots of pieces that aren't compatible and are allowed. I don't know whether they will be blocked over time. I'm not sure I like the idea of having freedom to make a super-clippy, ugly character but... maybe that freedom is what this game is about?

It's Wedding Tux in Jackets, but sometimes it doesn't show up because of incompatible other costume pieces, so make sure you start with something like "Bare" and add the Tux before other costume parts, then you know it's compatible.

Thanks for your build. I'm trying to tweak it now. :) ALso, many thanks to everybody else who contributed to this thread. It's amazing to finally see some inspirational WP/SS builds!

Thank you very much for information on incarnates, squeezing this info from the internet is like getting a bleeding stone... oh.
