A week after launch, I'd like everyone to post their official chosen names and origin/archetype/powersets for their main and alt (if applicable) here. That way spreadsheet boy (Darniaq) can add that information to the spreadsheet, making it easier to form useful groups and whatnot, and to help people choose what they want to be so we don't necessarily end up with 30 scrappers, 20 blasters, 10 controllers, 15 defenders, and zero tanks.

Sounds good to me.  It will be insturmental in helping me pick a character to stick with.

Spreadsheet Boy.  That's from a power pool right?

Spreadsheet Boy is short enough to fit within the 15 character name limit.  And Darniaq doesn't seem to have a name for an alt listed yet....

Feel free to post your latest info. Or you can just refer to the current chart and note any changes:

That could work actually. Lacking incognito in this game, I've been thinking of rolling a nerdy looking guy. A tempting target for villains, until they see that big freakin' gun come out :)

So long as changing my mind doesn't cause *THE GODS THEMSELVES TO SMITE ME*, I'd like to add a second character on the roster:

Conjecture (Controller)

Have we decided on a server yet?

I'm going to be playing an Energy/Energy blaster for my main. Scratch the alt for now. My mains name isn't known.. to me. Sad. I forgot what name I put up for reservation.

Forgiveness.. pwease.

Assuming all goes well..

Any one of three names: The Executive, Mr. Corporate (schild hates this one), or The CEO

Now this is straight out of COH character creator:

Archetype: Blaster
Primary Powers - Ranged : Energy Blast
Secondary Powers - Support : Gadgets
Level 1 (Starting Primary) : Power Blast
Level 1 (Starting Secondary) : Web Grenade
Level 2 : Power Bolt
Level 4 : Energy Torrent
Level 6 : Hover
Level 8 : Sniper Blast
Level 10 : Combat Jumping
Level 12 : Hasten
Level 14 : Super Jump
Level 16 : Fly
Level 18 : Super Speed
Level 20 : Cloaking Device
Level 22 : Smoke Grenade
Level 24 : Power Push
Level 26 : Explosive Blast
Level 28 : Trip Mine
Level 30 : Power Burst
Level 32 : Nova
Level 35 : Time Bomb
Level 38 : Auto Turret

If you really want to do the whole "make it so everyone doesn't have the same stuff" thing, you also might want to coordinate some beginning powers so someone has teleport friend, and another a heal of some sort (and also rez).

Spreadsheet that!

Hit Refresh.

I'm going to try a few names, but for my Alt, I may go with something less descriptive, like 'Nerd' or 'Geek' or some shit. Want a totally innocuous looking nothing character. Good rp opportunities maybe.

He'll be:

Scrapper - Martial Arts - Super Reflexes with Medicine and Super Speed. With enough room I may take Teleportation down the road too.

I was thinking of making my Matt Damon looking guy "Mr. Ripley" be Martial Arts with Reflexes and Super Speed. In fact there's a chance I'll play him before the stygian cuz scrappers level a bit faster than defenders when soloing is concerned.

j/k

I was gonna go Martial Arts / Dark Armor, but the Super Reflexes works better from an RP standpoint. Have you, or anyone, had any experience the the Medicine Power Pool though? Is it a good replacement for the Regeneration secondary that everyone and their cat will take?

I've grouped with high level Medicine peoples. Particularly on the last day of beta. It seems as though it is a good power pool. Healing is nothing to laugh at, especially when a scrapper does it.

I suppose I'll be Gravity Cont/Empath as I liked it best in beta.  I don't have a template.  I just pick stuff when it happens.  I suppose by level 40 or something, I'll have a template... but you'll have to play my character to see what it is.  I can't be arsed to write things down.

Ok- I have two characters through the tutorial thus far.

Beguiler- Magic Mind/Storm
The Rascal King- Mutation Energy/Energy

Probably be playing TRK for the first bit. Playing with Rose Arcadia (my buddy), so send either of us a tell in game.

Posted this in the other thread, but what the hell-

The Rascal King- 6th level mutation Energy/Energy/Flying blaster
Ingwe- 5th level mutation Claws/Invulnerability scrapper
Beguiler- 2nd level magic Mind/Storm controller

Been playing the blaster with my old roomie (he was in HD with us)- his char is Rose Arcardia. Solo'ed the scrapper while I was waiting for him to get home. All in all, I am reasonably satisfied with my progress for the day.

So far only really played my fire controller fyre storm got to almost level 7 before bogging down in evil KR circle of thorns hunting. Man I forgot how much that sucks without hover or combat jump.

I played a good bit with electron last night but he was having some SERIOUS crashing to desktop issues not sure what would cause that it was working like a champ for me no map disco at all just a couple lag spikes.

Yea, its strange I had NO issues during the beta, they go live and bam I start crashing like once an hour.  Not doing anything special either, just running along and BAM, gone.
