I got a chance to play one of my Battle Axe Tankers last night and I'm really liking the set now. Axe Cyclone totally rocks and is a perfect attack/special effect for a Tank (it draws mobs into the Tank). Running at level 38/39, 8 +1 and with a few uniques/sets, but mostly SOs , he had little trouble managing the fights. I was teaming with a friend who was running their Fire/? 'troller and it was a very effective duo. With a little movement (according to how the mobs shake out after the initial gather/positioning) you can use Axe Cyclone to bring everything to you (which is completely awesome). I'm looking forward to getting this toon leveled and IO'd up. I'm running Bio/Axe, and the potential looks great. See you all in game!

Not wanting to get into a lengthy discussion on the TT thread, but is Barrier now a must for the ITF HM?

Three teams tonight on Everlasting. Several new faces (welcome all) and several returning TTer's (welcome back). PLV ran "PLV's Revenge, ITF", Witty got shardy, and I ran missions and other stuff. Thanks to PLV and Witty for taking leads and thanks to Ronin for rounding up our pre-event warm up with Eo and Pali. And I think Agoogala ran a missions team HoH after the TFs had finished. Thanks for taking the star on those Agoogala. Huh, musta' left the lens cap on again, only got one shot of the HoH. The other missions and fun escaped my camera this week... Next week 10/25 we're on Indom! Meet in King's Row by IP Gate at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT and we'll get rolling from there!

I'm really looking forward to running these set (yes, I know I already run a lot of FM toons, but still)...

Only four of us today (me, PapaS, Ronin and MsA), but we were strong and mighty. Did some ToTing, House of Horrors, and the other Halloween thing, then ran Synapse, took down Eo in the middle of it, and went on to finish the TF, leveling PapaS's Elect/Staff to 50 in the process. All-in-all, a great run and fun times! We'll be back here on 11/19. See ya' then!

Was just able to get back on test, and I love these changes. I look forward to playing the set live. Thanks again for making these changes and giving this set some love,. Much appreciated!

They may both take PBAoE sets, but the powers are not both PBAoE. With Axe Cyclone no target is required. With Pendulum, a in range melee target is required or the power will not fire (no matter how many times you click the button). a

I just got a chance to try the new changes out and overall I liked them. It does give Axe a unique feel now (I've always liked the idea of Axe, but found it "ho-hum" to play). I noticed that Pendulum is a Targeted AoE, while Axe Cyclone is PBAoE, any reason Pendulum couldn't/shouldn't be PBAoE as well? I also liked getting Pendulum earlier in the tiers. Now you don't have to wait so long for an AoE. I liked the ranged aspect of Cleave as well. Overall, first impression, I liked what I saw and played. Can't wait for it to go live. Oh, yeah, and I loved playing Axe Cyclone. There's probably a reason that the radius is 15', but I'd like to try it at 20' and see how it goes. Thanks for all the work you're doing.

Not sure what happened. I did the post and the TankHQ update last night, I guess the Tanker gods weren't pleased with what I wrote (or it was and errant post -who knows where it went). But, as PLV has mentioned, I thanked both him and Witty for leading the respective TFs, and Agoogala for taking the missions/Zombie/ToT team after the TFs. Heck, I even had a pic or two of herding clocks, ToTing, and such... I also mentioned: This Saturday, 10/15, we'll be back on Reunion at 10:00 AM PDT, meet in King's Row by the IP Gate. ... and 10/18 we're back on Everlasting at 6:00 PM PDT/9:00 PM EDT, meet in King's Row by the IP Gate. AND.... next month (yes almost November) will be a 5th Tuesday. Right now we're looking at running CoP (Ronin has offered the lead it), so get your toons leveled up and tooled up for the event! And, I believe that at some point PLV wants a rematch with Romi (details and discussion to follow at a future TT event). See you all in game!

Fun times on Excel tonight. Four teams. Witty lead a Dr Q, Ronin lead ta Tin Mage/Apex TF, and MsA took one missions team and I got the other. The event started out with both an Eo and a Pali, so can't go wrong there! 10/11 We're back on Torch. Meet in King's Row by IP gate at 6:00 PM PDT/9:00 PM EDT and we'll get rolling from there!

Two teams tonight on Indom. One ran missions the other the Posi TFs. Thanks for taking the league star and running the TFs Ronin. Missions team found some dumpsters, and some more dumpsters... and some more dumpsters... Oh yeah, and a pit. Next week we're back on Excel (10/4) 6pm PDT/9pm EDT. Meet in King's Row by IP Gate, see you then!

Hi all, RL is kickin' pretty hard today. Might not be able to make the event. Vet TTer's please kick things off and I'll join if I can later. Take care!

I'd like to add Radiation Melee to the list of secondaries to look at. As Irradiation Ground act like a second damage aura. It can be paired with any of the primary power sets (adding additional damage auras ("passive damage"), and if you're mostly soloing, you'll have time to trim the build into working with your playstyle. One of the things I like most about Radiation Melee, is that it can add a "damage aura" to sets that don't have one (Inv, WP, SR, SD).

We had a lot of fun and a good turnout on Everlasting tonight. Two respec teams, and a missions team. Thanks for taking the missions tonight Witty! And, thanks to PLV for taking respec team 1 and running the "Freakspec". And thanks to Ronin for leading respec team 2, running both respec 1 and 2. Missions followed with a bit of everything, we even got to take out Infernal, and herd some doggies. 9/27 TTTI (Indom). Meet in King's Row at 6:00 PM PDT/9:00 PM EDT by IP Gate and we'll get rolling from there.

Fun times on Reunion this morning (day/evening, depending on where in the world you log in from). Almost had a full team, and we got to meet some new faces at the event. Got shivans, ran a couple of missions, participated in a Hami, so all-in-all a good time. Although, I think Hami is still mad at me from my previous CoH life (sucker punched me after the league t-ported out). We're back on Reunion October 15th, which I will unfortunately have to miss. Vet TTers, please feel free to get the event up and rolling. Take care, see you soon.

Been busy and forgot that this coming Saturday was the 3rd Sat of the month. That means we'll be back on Reunion this Sat 9/17. Meet in King's Row by IP Gate at 10:00 AM Pacific. See ya' then!

Hi all, a fun time on Torch tonight. Ran a Hess and Kahnn TF. Thanks for leading Hess MsA, and thank PLV for taking Kahnn. 9/17 TTTR (Reunion). Meet in King's Row at 10:00 AM Pacific by IP Gate. 9/20 TTTE (Everlasting). Meet in King's Row at 6:00 PM PDT/9:00 PM EDT by IP Gate and we'll get rolling from there. See you all soon!d

Big initial turnout on Excel tonight. Too bad folks left early, before all the teams where set. As it was, we had a Katie Hannon TF, and three missions teams. Thanks for leading the teams "X"/indestructaboy, Agoogala, and MsA (and to anyone else I may have missed who held the star). My team was able to take care of some AVs and run other content as well. 9/13 we're on Torch. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9PM EDT and we'll get rolling from there.

A small and fast BAF tonight on Everlasting. 9/6 we're back on Excel to start September's TTs. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9PM EDT and we'll get rolling from there.

Hi all, I realize tonight is one of our 5th Tuesdays, but there's a chance I won't be able to make it due to RL events. Vet TTer's please get things rolling if I'm not there and run the BAF as planned. if for some reason that's not doable default to an all Tanker MSR. I'll catch up with you all when I can.

Fun times on Indom tonight. We ran a Manti (Thanks for leading it Ronin), and tried out the new diff setting for an ITF. 8 +4, 1:30 time limit (not sure that took), but no other debuffage this time through. We finished the ITF in 1:10:00. Seemed like there were more frequent and a greater number of ambushes, other than that seemed about the same. Oh, Agoogala found us a GM to play with for the opening of the event. Pali time! Six boss minotaurs meet us at the first door (no relation to my toon, other than they owed him money). ITF Action - holding... actually taking the bridge... Dance floor (I was a bit late on the trigger) Look, an AV!! Great job team and much fun. Many, many, many levels even for a bunch of 50 Tanks! So a good time was had by all! 8/30 Is our 5th Tuesday of the month!! And we'll be back on Everlasting for BAF/s! Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9PM EDT and we'll get rolling from there. BRING A LEVEL 50!

A decent turnout on Reunion today. We had pretty near a full team and were able to run Hess (thanks Ronin, for taking the star), and then some DA missions followed by a PI mission. Oh yeah, Ronin found a Pali to play with at the beginning of the event. We'll be back on Reunion on 9/17! See ya' then, or on this coming Tuesday on Indom!

Hi all, Just a reminder that we have TTT Reunion, tomorrow morning at 10 AM Pacific. See you there!

Okay, thanks for the correction PLV, I thought Col had moved to the other team. In any case, thanks to Col, or whoever ended up running the other Hess TF!

Another fun run on Everlasting. We had four teams tonight. Lor lead missions, PLV and MsA lead Hess's, Ronin took the star for team 1 and lead Lady Gray. Lady Gray went pretty well until Hami (we didn't pack our EoE samiches. However a stop to the local deli sorted that out. Then Hami dropped like a rock/big purple egg). Teamage then followed with Lor's group and we finished the night punching spiders. Agoogala Leveling I think there were more Rikti than shown here, guess my video card didn't want to capture them all. Yeah, we totally cleared this area. oooh, shiny.... 8/20 we're back on Reunion at 10:00 AM Pacific! Next Tuesday, 8/23 we're on Indom. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PT/9pm ET and we'll get rolling from there. See ya' soon!
