I'm evil that way, not that I should tempt you further, but look at Mu Mastery for your Epic/Patron... Just sayin'.... (No AoE beast here, none, please move along...) Also Chilling Embrace... Okay, wondering off into my happy AoE Tanking world. Enjoy!!

My faves for Ice/* are: Ice/Fire, very fun combo Ice/Spines, very adaptable (turned mine into a "healer", because I could)(Holds aggro incredibly well) Ice/Dark, because I could. I imagine Ice/Rad Melee would be pretty fun too, but haven't rolled one yet.

Hiya' VV, welcome. Yes, next TTT (Tanker Tuesday Tour) will take us to Imdom, so we look forward to seeing you there! TankHQ is the public channel we post events on and talk Tank. Feel free to join!

Hi Joe, thanks for leading a team for us last night. Usually just chat cues are enough to get folks bringing stuff together. Also when we have a mix of levels, like last night, it can be harder for the lower level toons to hang in a big mob of goons (not fully slotted/unlocked powers yet). You did good. Everyone had a fun time and the levels were dinging, so all-in-all a good night!

Ha! I didn't even notice that. Always fashionable.

Hey Ukase, Not a fool, there's a great deal of stuff to know about the game (I tend to forget most of it.. which isn't really useful, but how it works for me), so don't feel bad about not knowing about bruising, gauntlet usually gets talked about more. As far as taking advantage of it, as discussed the other night on TankHQ, it is linked to your T1 attack, which as you stated is probably not the best for DPS. But, it should have the fastest recharge time (I think EM might be the exception to that), and the "debuff" lasts for 8 seconds. So, to take advantage of it, make sure you land a shot with your T1 every 8 seconds (or as close to it as you can) (save slots for other powers, or try adding procs (if you have slots available).

Not sure "shadow black" is all that complimentary color on Pep....

Next week (9/17) we're heading back Lor's server, Everlasting, for our next TTT! Meet in KR by IP gate at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT, and we'll get rolling from there. Also, be sure to check out the Tanker changes on the test sever next week! Until Tuesday! Take care all!

Agreed, I had an Invul/Stone on Live (before IOs and such) and even then he was hard to take down. In all fairness I did slot recharge into Fault, so lots of "flopping fish" mobs, and a fun combo to play.

There are several options out there for your. I would suggest looking at Rad/Spines, Rad/Fire, Invuln/Fire, Invuln/Spines, Bio/Fire, Bio/Fire, and if you feel like playing something out side the normal. Try any of the above, but with Ice Melee (Yes I said Ice Melee), Frost is your friend!!

Hi all, We're back on Torchbearer 9/10. Hope to see you there!

We're back on Excelsior next week (9/3) for the start of this months TTs! Meet in King's Row @ 6pm PDT/9pm EDT, by IP Gate and we'll get rolling from there.

Hi Eve, to answer your first question, "yes" certain power sets have different taunt vocalizations than others (compare savage melee to other sets (roar vs a "taunt"), and as Hera mentioned, female taunts are generally different than their male counterparts (the Ah-hah, one you mentioned being a good example (on mace, maybe axe too?)). I believe (haven't checked in some time) that the Brute taunts for similar sets may be different as well. I don't think there is a way to change the taunt vocalization/animation unless one was given in the hero creation/costuming/power effects window (which to my knowledge there are none offered at this time, although that would be a great update). If you're seeing a difference in taunt when in a mission vs when you're outside a mission, that may be a bug. Might be worth reporting.

Glad you were able to join us tonight Dar. Also, I'd like to welcome all new comers to the TTT event/s, and returning TTers as well. Thanks to Lorna and Lycia Nalakath for leading our teams tonight. Next week we'll be visiting Indomitable 8/27. Meet in KR by IP gate at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT, and we'll get rolling from there. Take care all, hope to see you there!

Hi all, next week (8/20) we join Lor and company for TTT on Everlasting! Meet in KR by IP gate at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT, and we'll get rolling from there!

Hi all, Next stop (8/13) is back on Torchbearer, so hope to see you all there. Same time/place as always, just a different server!

Pep, you know we have both Rad Armor and Rad Melee.... ;)

I'm good with exemping down, or even bringing a lower level toon if we decide to street sweep. What zones is everyone interested. I know Perez Park is a big one for the "skuls" badge, any others out there? I'm not much of a PvPer, so hope we have enough experienced players to take the team leads if we go that route.

Good points Ukase, and good to see you at the events. I forgot to mention the name collision issue, so thanks for bringing that up. Personally I chose to go with new Tank/s on each server, but I've talked to other players that either already have multiple Tanks on one server and want to transfer that one, or have a SGs in place that will help level their toon (so they can then transfer them when they reach a desired level). It's been awhile since the Tanks have done street clearing, I'd be up for a round of it. It's a different kind of fun for missions and TFs so maybe something to try.

Here's the server order (below), and we have TankHQs on all for them (even Reunion). Tanker Tuesday and Tanker Tuesday Tour Info: We meet in King's Row, by IP Gate 6pm PDT/9pm EDT. 1st Tuesday-Excelsior 2nd Tuesday-Torchbearer 3rd Tuesday- Everlasting 4th Tuesday- Indomitable Since we had a 5th Tuesday, we did a special event on Excelsior. Our next TT will there as well, 8/6. So, if you wanted to create or transfer a toon to a new server, Torchbearer would be the next one in line for the event. Torch' is also my "home" server, so if you needed an invite to TankHQ or so levels I could help out. Everlasting and Indomitable are the 3rd and 4th respectively and you could either server hop, or roll new Tanks there as well (we have TankHQs everywhere). Enjoy!

Good to hear everyone had a good time I was able to finish unlocking Lore and Destiny, so more powers to come for that toon. There have been several discussions about server transfers and TTing, and ultimately it's each player's decision. Just remember, you'll lose SG affiliation and likely WW's and private storage stuff (I'm not 100% sure on either of those). So just make sure to check things out before doing so (invite another toon into your private SG, email, trade, otherwise transfer enhs, salvage, etc...). Alternately, since we have TTs on every server now (except for Reunion, due to logistics) there's no reason not to roll a Tank on every server and join the fun! And, speaking of Reunion... we should start talking about when we can get over there. Either a 5th Tuesday would be good, or try for a Saturday. Do we have any Reunion Tanks currently involved with TT? If so, please chime in. Your input on server population and best times for the event would be much appreciated. I also was slow on the draw to get screenies, is the capture picture command Alt+PrintScreen (been too long since I've done it). Thanks all, see you around Paragon!

We were few, but mighty!! Three teams in the league and we took the rikti to they're limit! Good job all!! Thanks to all who joined the event and a special thanks to all those that brought their 50s allowing us to have a great raid! We're back on Excelsior next week for our usual first of the month TT. See you there (King's Row, by IP Gate 6pm PDT/9pm EDT).

Hi all, The previously mentioned "two weeks" is here! Head on over to Excelsior for an all Tanker MSR tonight! We'll be starting at the normal time in the normal place (King's Row at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT). We'll head en masse to RWZ from there. If we are lacking enough Tanks to form a league, then we'll run teamage as usual. But, lets shoot for the high mark (we are Tankers after all) and go for the MSR!! See ya' there!!

Hi all, We're heading back on Indomitable next week, 7/23. Meet in KR by IP gate at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT, and we'll get rolling from there. **Two weeks away, get you're Tanks as close to 50 as you can for an all Tanker MSR on Excelsior on 7/30!**

That's pretty much how I'd rank them as well, although once you incarnate things many sets get MUCH better.
