Sif Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 This was circa i7, but I saw an Arachnos Webmaster, in Grandville, in front of a few troops say something along the lines of Remember, when you pull the pin, Mr Grenade is no longer your friend! Never seen it since, never been able to find any references to it. Perhaps I'm just crazy? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulbasaur Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Quote I'M THE FREAKING WIND BRO. That was the exact second when I realised why people often say redside missions have better writing. There's a sort of audacious silliness to a lot of redside content that I really enjoy. Early blueside story arcs often felt like filler, while early redside missions played like Saturday morning cartoons. 9 Doctor Fortune Soulwright Mother Blight Brightwarden Storm Lantern Shadow Self Corona Borealis Blood Fortunado Dark/Dark Corruptor Rad/Rad Brute Gravity/Time Controller Storm/Water Defender Warshade Dark/Dark Tanker The Good Missions Guide: A Heroic Levelling Journey through Story Arcs Blueside Guide Easy IO Cheat Sheet The Mean Missions Guide: A Villainous Levelling Journey through Story Arcs Redside Guide Fortunatas are the Bestunatas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR_Mechano Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 One that made me chuckle was a Hellion to the lady he was mugging, "that dress makes you look big..." like wow...I get mugging her man but, jesus, leave the ladies fashion choice alone, you really ARE villains. 2 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VileTerror Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 "I like pie." Random civilian that I clicked on in the street. Just this morning/last night, from a mission of Vargas': 2020-02-17 01:06:51 [NPC] Nebula Cor Leonis Assault: I know this stuff is the key to our power and all, but I still say it just tastes weird. 2020-02-17 01:06:51 [NPC] Vortex Elite Assault: What do you expect it to taste like? Strawberries? 2020-02-17 01:06:52 [NPC] Nebula Cor Leonis Assault: Actually, that would be kinda nice. 2020-02-17 01:06:52 [NPC] Vortex Elite Assault: Are you serious? Strawberry flavored super-soldier serum? 2020-02-17 01:06:52 You activated the Nemesis Staff power. 2020-02-17 01:06:53 [NPC] Nebula Cor Leonis Assault: Well, at least this will end that conversation. 10 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Doc Buzzsaw: earlier: " each piece you find will get a second chance at life in my next project: The crystal powered SuperFreak! " later: " Oh, what has science wrought? I sought only to turn a man into a metal-encased juggernaught [sic] of destruction powered by the unknown properties of a mysterious living crystal. How could this have all gone wrong " Also the Freak Tank dialogue in her "rescue 3 Freak Tanks" mission is awesome. 9 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tremor3258 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Nemesis has already been mentioned, so the runner-up has to be everything out of the Radio's ( or more accurately RADIOOOOO'S) mouth. Er, speaker. Er, villain's auditory hallucination. While Television has less ambiguity, Radio Free Opportunity easily plays as a concept, a pirate DJ, or the villain hearing voices telling them to blow up Wyvern bases, and Radio is, and has been, my absolute favorite under-20 contact for sheer charm ever since City of Villains launched. 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VileTerror Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 The various Redside Contacts OOZE with personality, and it's great. But yeah . . . gonna echo tremor here.

Troo Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 I always liked Positron's answer to why he just stood there never helping heroes taking beating in front of him.

Botzoman Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I know they get run to death but I love the DFB dialog. Positron does air on the side of being generic/ boring but I feel running it once blue before red really makes you appreciate all of Arbiter Sand's dialog on the red DFB. (As a side note, I love that Paragonwiki has the dialogue for a lotta of stuff) Positron's assistance There are reports of psychic disturbances below. No doubt it's the Lost. Be extra careful, many heroes have gone after the Lost only to never be heard from again. Arbiter Sands' assistance This report says the Lost have some sort of shanty town down below. Although, the operative spelled 'shanty' wrong. Sigh... do you see how hard it is trying to be an Arbiter when someone can't even spell shanty? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
