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*

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"
-
Better lore.
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.
-
The point has been made and we don't need to beat it to death but I'll repeat it once. Everyone is useless on an eight person high end team (assuming there isn't some really out of balance skew going on). Incarnates (and grape colored builds as well) break the game to exaggerate this feeling of uselessness.
I am beginning to think that the 8 person team is what is broken. You can still do +4/x8 with only four people on a team and get a challenge. And if you only had four people on a team, you'd need everyone frosty judgements or no, especially on the high end mob groups.
When you are one of 8 on a well-balanced team with a vibe, you can just stop playing for a bit and the team will hardly notice. That's just a fact.
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've got taunt in Chilling Embrace, is that wasted? I'm trying to follow the technical discussion but not doing very well. :)
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...

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.

I tried out spring attack and ended up respecting out of it, it didn’t seem worth the slots for me. I was hoping it would be fun, but the fiddle nature of clicking to teleport vs just moving forward to aggro made it annoying (esp at high levels when groups tend to evaporate).
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!
-
Yeah, I found it after posting this, it appears to no longer be compatible with capes and wings, for some reason, just like trenchcoats. It's kind of annoying, I know for a fact that it clipped with capes, but so what, it still looked really good.
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.

WP/ss god tanks were my favorite on live
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.
-
Closest thing to a regen tanker is Bio Armor or Willpower.
Apparently, some say other sets have more regen than regen set and wp is one of them.
-
Okay, a super-expensive build can get you a Soft-Capped Invuln setup that DOES NOT REQUIRE THE FIGHTING POOL!
No mule attack you never use.
No Cross-Punch.
No Tough.
No Weave.
Nor the resultant, ongoing Endurance drain from the toggles!
So this leaves you with power choices late in the build and a fairly hefty Endurance budget to use them.
Awww no cross punch or spring attack? :(
Anyway, those last two builds were Invulnerability, not WP matey ;) hehe
-
THIS IS AWESOME.
I concur with this because I love watching enemies fly.
This would give incentive to slot KB enhancements and say a big, "Go Home", to those stupid KB to KD enhancements!
Tie the "exit" function of menus to ESC or otherwise allow it to be bindable...
