  1. I 'spose that would have to do with the method o' summonin'. And by that, where his summons come from. If he/she pulled'em from the depths o' someone's psyche, Mind Control might work. But then again, so could Illusion as, well, they're illusions in the mind o' the target. For me, it's more 'bout the mechanism.

    I'm going to be leveling up a controller with a friend who's gonna be just starting the game. I already reserved the name for him (Mesocyclone), and I'm dead set on making storm summoning my secondary power pool. I initially picked Mind Control as my primary (fits the name of the character), but the more I read the guides, the tougher it gets to chose my primary power.

    Here's the idea: Even though I don't roleplay any of my characters in any way, I still like to create them as though I would. Mesocyclone is a magic hero who summons nightmarish things. I figured mind control would be the easiest way to explain that, but with the customizable powers, I can pretty much go any route I want with that and explain it away.

    That being said, what's everyone's recommendation for a primary power pool? I will mostly be playing him in a group of at least two, but there may be times when I will have to solo. I'm assuming my friend will be making a scrapper, but that's uncertain.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Setting aside time myself for Thursday, May 6th which allows a week for reschedule and time for details to be hammered out. With switching, loading, and finishing fights, expect this badge collecting event to run 2, maybe 3 hours.

    I'm going to set up a sign up list to make sure at least 10-14 people will show. Of course, if there's more than hopefully there's no worry about not having enough people.

    Leave a global name and possible higher-level ATs you can bring.

    Edit: forgot to add a time, but thinking around 6pm EST. Can easily be changed according to schedules. We will meet in Pocket D.
    May 6th, 6pm EST.

    As for what I can bring, Level 50 scrappers, tanker, defender, blasters, peacebringer.

    Edit: My namesake badger is a Level 50 blaster.

  5. My Dark/Dark/Dark Defender, Cobalt Abyssean, hit 50 recently as well. My first support character that wasn't dedicated to debuffin' HP.
  6. Thanks again for leadin', CL. Smooth, as usual.

    Dear Champion II

    Very, very nice. I got this song on repeat.

    Edit: Thank you for usin' my full clip. I appreciate it.

    Edit2: I posted the link in a few places to spread the word on it to fellow Champions. I think everyone who plays on the server should have the option to enjoy this song.

    True story. I rock the Twilight Grasp aura like nobody's business.

    All in all, Champion is, by far, the friendliest server I've been on. In just about any MMORPG I've played.
    I)mperious T)ask F)orce. It's in the Roman era zone, Cimerora, for 35+ characters. I'm sure you'll get your fill soon enough.

    And it's good to hear that your experience has been positive. And feel free to pass that along on your way, if you haven't already.
  13. Nothin' scheduled on Wednesday, as far as I'm aware, so I'm game for that.
  14. Doin' nearly daily Hami Raids is what burned all the raiders out in the first place, years ago. It also played a part in havin' difficulty in cultivatin' a new interest in raidin' with the revamp to the Hami Encounter. It literally boiled down to that no one wanted to do it anymore because it had been done so much.

    Perhaps the mindset has changed to wantin' to capitalize on the number o' merits someone can earn in a day that some people would be willin' to do this, but it's only a matter o' time before the merits get reduced if they're bein' accomplished so quickly.

    Food for thought.
  15. Thank you to Cherry for organizin' the Hami Raid, and to the rest o' the team leads for makin' it happen. Very, very nicely done.

    Except for that Hami Taunter. He's a dick.
  16. Take care, Pep. Hasten ye back.

    We'll leave a light on for you.

    Sent you a PM, or you can check the other thread for the build in Mids.
  18. This is what I ran up to 50.

    Edit: Swapped Combat Jumping in place with Executioner's Shot, and fixed the non-max level IOs.

    I don't think I've heard a better analogy.
