Wait wait wait, you mean standardization amongst the melee classes, with supporting evidence from cited sources? What a thoughtful, straight-forward and balance-minded concept, which means the devs won't do it but I think its a great idea nonetheless. Good luck storming the trenches, LR! o7

Ohai Killion, I saw you on Excelsior earlier today, nice to see you back.

Then, IMO, at character creation there should be a pop-up that asks if you want the new player controls, or the veteran player controls instead of imposing different controls on people who've played the game for over a decade. Again, just IMO and YMMV.
QFMFE.

I played almost exclusively on the Champion server as Night Warrior, part of the Supergroup Megaforce. I'd love to reconnect with some of the people I used to play with back then.
Oh man, classic MEGAforce member, that's going in the Wayback Machine. Welcome back, I believe you found yourself to the Champ Vet Discord server, so party on.

I started playing City of Heroes before City of Villains launched, and I still ask myself to this day: "Why would anyone want to play blue side?" Like you said, tons of filler content, tons of delivery missions, too many zones, dull and boring. Everything from Issues 0 and 1 are terrible, which is the majority of blue side content to this day. And Atlas Park... I hate Atlas Park. Too shiny, too bright, too many people, too dull. Even when I did play blue side back on live, I avoided Atlas Park as much as humanly possible.
This thread has been interesting, because most of the complaints in regards to red side are reasons why I love it. There's no hub zone, so there's no massive glut of PCs like Atlas Park to avoid. There's fewer, more compact zones to travel. The zones are more dingy, thus feel more real. St. Martial reminds me a lot of Atlantic City in real life. It has the glamorous casinos... and the rest isn't so glamorous. As for the lack of agency... I never saw much agency blue side either. You either perform heroics, or you don't.
To each his or her own.
As the kids say, "Let's get this b-red!", amirite?

If we could get Mace Mastery: Shatter Armor to get the Executioner's Strike option from stealth, that would be fantastic. Thematically it makes sense, and I think it would bring Banes back into line as a solid single-target DPS contender.
I know its not necessarily powers-related BUT if we could get some additional options for Mace skins, like the Fire and Ice Sword - Elemental, would be great too. Or even this, from another asset (Rikti Computer) within the game, would be fancy option for not just Banes but Swords across the game.

FYI to any returning Champion players, we've got a long-standing Discord server so c'mon over and get reacquainted with some of your fellow Champ ex-pats @ https://discord.gg/X87FnCBauR

I always remember someone with the alt named 'Man In Blue', welcome back Honcho.

I remember you and welcome back.

Welcome back, Blue. Nice to see you on the boards and on Discord. Enjoy your nostalgia!

There are/were a few channels dedicated to Champion ex-pats, and there's still a Discord with an occasional trickle of activity but I haven't seen anything from @Steel Brigade in a long time. @Doomlord Slayermann runs the Discord, so that's at least one UHB person around still, Ms. Snazzzy, Nibs, a few others too.
Here's the Discord link: https://discord.gg/GwvdvqWmcc
C'mon down and wake up us old folks from our naps.

JUST found this thread. Thanks to a vid in this thread I found my old SG name - it was United Heroes Brigade. My mains were Bazooka Tooth (Ar/em blaster), Pinball Wizard (Kin/Energy defender), and Texas BBQ (Fire/Fire tanker) - Lots of fond memories of our group running around in the offcial SG costume and setting great examples for other players of good teamwork.
I miss this group and if it's still running I will rejoin.
Yeah, the medieval shoulders and red/white color scheme said 'UHB' to me, which was going to be my suggestion before I saw your edit.
Welcome back, enjoy the nostalgia.

Hey, I remember you! I played as Beetle Bug/Plinko in Everyday Heroes. I found your post while looking for Rimrock, the leader of Everyday Heroes. He'd put together teams in the SG every night and played a TON. I'm pretty sure he's like 90% of the reason our SG's prestige ranking was so high. It's very cool to see someone from Everyday Heroes after so long, this game was a huge part of my childhood and much of it was spent grouping with ya'll!
Rimrock's global was @Deathhimself on Champion, in case you go looking for them, which is a strong assumption they're still using the same global.

Un-American? Its a private entity and they can run it how they want. You don't get more American than that.

Feel free to drop in and say hello.

We've gone from drama to melodrama.
It's like going to plaid, only less humorous.

Played on Champion as Slick Quills, was part of Everyday Heroes SG. Pretty sure we were pretty high on the prestige ranking, surprised to not see anyone here in the threads so far.
There were quite a strong number of us Champion ex-pats when the servers first stood up but more than a few have dwindled away or prefer to stay in contact on Discord, but even that activity is pretty low currently. All the same, welcome back.
Is there really a massive proc nerf just around the corner?

Don't try and balance a horribly broken proc system because it affects you directly? Well, let's not make this about the sustained health of the game or something relevant.
