  1. Tactical Arrol... of course! 🀣 The pointy hat will be a tough one! Plenty of thighs options, though! πŸ™‚
  2. @TrixieKixx keeping with the structure that has been established, I will be showing up with Humphrey, a coolΒ² controller.
  3. Part 2 with more pics I ran with cell shading yesterday, as you can see. Very cool effect for this team, I think! At the staging area Farming the badges Mission accomplished! Bonus Pic - Going in the 2nd time, 4 of us, still sticking to a theme ("Code RED") from the look here. We took on some PUGs to make a full regular team though. I alted to Forlorne (in her young adolescent look, she is growing up so fast!) for that much needed Notice of the Well and Level Shift! πŸ† Didn't get the Unyielding Badge for the sole reason of having it already. πŸ™‚ But at least this time it was a much more systematic approach for me, knowing what was coming. Completely forgot about Rise of the Phoenix. Some things will just need more training...
  4. Fellow Themers, it was a pleasure wading through the mud with you! This was a great fun Taskforce, and I enjoyed every colorful minute of it! Thanks for the pics @FrauleinMental and @Midnyte They tell the story! Talking about telling a story, here are Bananiacs Basic Obvious Observations of this weeks "Theme Team Unyielding Badge Farm"-Run: - Trixie had the right hunch for this one: Shiny colorful spectral holograms made a great contrast to the smeary Sewer Maintenace Room. Btw, for crying out loud, who in their right mind builds a sewer maintenance room like that?!? BtwΒ², those sewers stretch a REALLY LONG WAY DOWN below this city! - This was a mission where paying attention was important! πŸ™‚ - There was a learning curve with the assault on the Hydra Head. Once we understood the FF cycle, the Unyielding got less. - And a personal takeaway from this: Superjump is not suited very well to get yourself safely down the room! And from the category "Things I forgot to use although I specifically put them up for situations like this": 1.) Using the bloody Jetpack to maneuver the stairs 2.) Using Fallout on the bloody corpses 3.) Using Knight Errand in any of the fights - Final Note: I just found that we got to keep those remaining charges of the salvage guns. Nice! I got a few pics to add, let's see what I have... Here is Part 1: Everybody follow the Tank! Including the Tank! Found a dangler again <<Defying Gravity starting to play in mind>> Suggesting a new Disorient Superpower? Devs! Get going! Part 2 to follow
  5. A glaring hole in the beauty of what is Midnytes Art Of Excel! Glad you were able to avoid it! πŸ˜‰πŸ˜
  6. Dear Fellow Themers, let me start this by emphasizing how extraordinarily entertaining our little excursion into the murky ethers of the Shadow Shard has been. And what a delightful group of companions you all were, each with their own amazingly artistic take on what I would like to now, without much further ado, officially name: The "Your Naughty Children are here, Mother!"-Run πŸ€Ήβ€β™€οΈπŸ€Ήβ€β™€οΈπŸ€Ήβ€β™€οΈπŸ€Ήβ€β™€οΈ And here is my little summary of events: - "You have to grow old, but you don't have to grow up!" ... or .... "It's never too late to have a happy childhood!" We were certainly In Character for this! - As fascinating as the topology of the Shadow Shard is, you definitely want to bring your array of teleporting skills and gimmicks to the field! - That being said: Doing this in less than 2 hours is definitely respectable, as far as i can say. We would have been even faster... if not for certain... interruptions... required. Won't be going into any more details here πŸ˜‰πŸ˜ - I really liked how each of the children turned out so unique in their representation of the theme. And having 1 adult character with us actually gave this a little twist that was very funny. More about this see below... - And of course, when we were done and disassembled the team, I thought to myself: "Well, the last thing you should forget is to check the top of the Globe for that exploration badge". And guess what the last thing I forgot was when I found myself back in Ouro... - Lot's of good badges anyway from this, great TF! Many great shots already up there, so I only have a few to add: I rest my case 😁 Bonus Pic - Adult Forlorne, newest and one of the proudest members of Team Bananiac Incarnate! A character I built pretty much at the beginning when I found my way into Homecoming 2 years ago. It really felt like what I described in her Bio, strange and still at home somehow...
  7. @TrixieKixx Before I run out of options... I will be projecting "Holo-Lilac" from Reunion to Indomitable, a Dark/Rad Controller.
  8. Hope you can take the field again, Jax πŸ‘
  9. @TrixieKixx Planning to be there with Forlorne, Fire/Fire/MoreFire Blaster. She's one o fthe first characters I created after joining HC and has been sitting idle at lvl49 now for way too long.
  10. That's an absolute Rockstar Collage, Midnyte! Great visuals, we should take it and run with it, doing Promo for the Theme Team! ✨✨✨ Pushing my own shot of THE GEMS. Colorful and shiny as we were! Speaking of running away with things: You guys were going faster, so I could be dying faster πŸ™‚ Aftermath, all back up on their feet... So, by popular request: This weeks issue of "What we learned from yesterday": - Trying to stalk ambushes can go southward quickly, when the ambush just ignores your stealth and gives you a hiding! - Speedrunning with an all-stalker team can be surprisingly difficult! (Note: some coordination might be required) - Offensive front-tanking with All-AoE Damage only gets me so far when Stealth wears off... Amendment A: All-Stalker teams usually don't field Vengeance. Which seemed to be the part my concept was banking on for complete usefullness πŸ”₯ - That being said: Stalkers hit bloody hard, and Gemstones can both be shiny AND durable! Albeit VERY expensive! Rock on, Fellas! Bonus Picture: I took this picture last year in an actual Gemstone Museum. You guys make of this what you will... πŸ˜‡
  11. Folks, this week may be my turn to drop out. Got family business, and it may or may not be finished in time on saturday. So, will try to be there, but no guarantees... Will keep you posted, so you won't have to wait for me.
  12. @TrixieKixx I will stay with my little Amber gemstone. Ran a Posi2 today with her and it was fast forward from level 11 to almost 22 in less than an hour. I totally forgot how much fun Staff is, and on a Stalker at that! The poor victims will never know what hit them when we descend upon them in hordes on saturday πŸ™‚
  13. Well, when it comes to gemstones, a violet one would be Amethyst. You may be able to make something work with that. Would be great if you can make it again for a change. I was actually prepping a toon that I called "Assassina Amethysta" (She's also Shield btw), but if you wanna have the stone, pls feel free to go for it. @TrixieKixx I can sign up Amber Elfling, a sweet little Staff/Reflexes Stalker.
  14. Thanks @Midnyte and @FrauleinMentalfor posting the pics. Putting the sweets next to the costumes makes appreciation even better. What I learned from yesterday: - Ruby Kit Kat is actually A Thing, I didn't know there was a pink version of that stuff! πŸ™‚ - Kit Kat is even better with cat ears! πŸ™‚ - I see the strawberries now! πŸ™‚ - Coconuts can be cute! πŸ™‚ - I am sure there is a high protein snack called "Thunderbolt" out there somewhere, now the "Jones" part has to make a candy out of it! πŸ™‚ - Time/Energy Defenders will not be My Thing in the long run... πŸ™‚ I think it is also worth the effort to post these, even if I can't always bring myself to sort mine out and upload. One day, we may be going back through this thread and remember all the fun times and smashing ideas there were! So many good moments! That being said... What a Lineup! Bonus Shot: "How are you doin'?" 😎
  15. I am still in the endfight of an ITF, will be few minutes late...
  16. Well, I'm glad we picked Candy and not Diseases as OUR theme! πŸ™‚ Almond Joy: Candy bars. Well, it's better than when we first started out. Our code names were diseases. You know what it's like being called Chlamydia for a year?!?
  17. Just ran into this thread, getting clickbaited by the faboulous title. And let me ask this question, for apparently nobody has dared to do it before: Have you considered a team of Pinball Wizards surrounding mobs in the open to create a Mob Singularity in the center?
  18. It says β€žfavorite candyβ€œ! Nobody will complain, if you both have the same taste! I am very curious to see how these turn out. Would be funny if you actually created twins, because Kit Kat comes... you know... in 2 bars πŸ™‚
  19. Yes, I saw it too late, would have caught up with you. I did go on a Posi1 with Mr M after that, in a team full of Masterminds with FF and stuff. I think we were wiped 3 times before the 1st simulacrum was killed (Which, btw, was mine, the 1st time that I actively blasted myself out of the water in this. And a testament to the squishiness of that toon! πŸ˜†) It has been a while that a Posi TF Boss Fight turned southwards so hard...
  20. Yo @EmmySky, had to think this would be for you maybe? Take Care πŸ˜‰
  21. Just stumbled into this for no good reason... I usually don’t have trouble finding good names for my toons, but this is a great way of thinking! Thanks a lot, I keep it remembered. Now... I have about 2 dozen new ideas for some great new concepts because of this. I will have to populate a 2nd server soon if this goes on πŸ˜‡...
  22. Ohh, this will be a blast! @TrixieKixx in honour of two of the greatest amenities in life - CITY OF HEROES and MARZIPAN - I will indulge into this activity with MISTER MARZIPAN, a horiffically ineffectively underpowered Time/Energy Defender. The Hero that dentists deserve! For your attention: I will not apologize for all the Knockback this is about to ensue. If you absolutely must hit large groups of mobs with your attacks, go hunt them for yourself! This toon is going on Taste And Looks alone! 😎
  23. Won't be the same without you, @EmmySky Hopefully you will be able to make it every once in a while...
  24. No problem with Blasters, I must have several in any level range 😎 But Kheldians will be a challenge... there should be a Peacebringer lurking around somewhere at lvl10, but beyond that I still haven't made it very far into those... Thanks Trix for posting new themes. I have some work to do here, getting back to the drawing board. This is so much fun! πŸ™‚ Great pics btw. I may add a few when I have sorted out the ones I made.
  25. Okay, that could be it... I think I got that. Cool!
