“Fave taskforce, must be the one with the big giant at the center of the earth, do not remember the name.”

I haven’t done all the task/strike forces, but I think you might be referring to the Virgil Tarikoss Strike Force – The Beast beneath the Mountain.

There is also the Operative Renault Strike Force – The Temple of the Waters which is centered around the Leviathan which is underground, but I haven’t been able to do that one yet.

1.Favourite zone, I have to go with Rikti Crash Site, very dangerouse zone with nice wild greenery and chirping sounds, also that Rikti ship is a sight to behold, bar none.

2.Favourite Origin, Mutation. Veriy simple enhancement icons and easy to remember, other origin’s icons are kinda not easy to figure out.

3. Favourit Archetype, Scrapper, easy to solo and my spines/regen was a killilng machine of death

4. Feature, Sidekicking/mentoring. Lets your friends play with you no matter the level

5. Fave power, Fireshield, very cool to be on fire

6. Fave taskforce, must be the one with the big giant at the center of the earth, do not remember the name.

7. Fave issue, hmm they all were good :)

I have mostly been playing red-side, so never spent much time in Perez, have not done Hess’ task force.

Lady Grey is a quite nice task force, although I think the strike force that first gave me a “wow” feeling afterwars was the Silver Mantis strike force, Pirates in the Sky. The last mission in that one was one that was one of the best team play moments in MMOs I have had then.

Favourite archetype: That would be the dominator. With 5 at max level and a 6th one at 43 it has certainly been a blend of game play that suited me. The only non-dominator I have at max level is a fortunata, which probably as close as you can get to a dominator without playing one.

Did I say I like dominators?

Oh how I used to dread the “Defeat 10 Circle of Thorns in Perez Park” mission with my new characters :) Good picks there, I both loved and hated Perez Park, but I’d have to go with Striga – just loved that zone!

Fave origin: Its been ages since I played but I always used to pick the one that got the most 5th column missions (natural?)

CoH is easily one of the best level based MMOs.

It blows my mind that the scaling instance system in CoH has not been emulated. It’s utterly obvious and highly functional.

I love the fact that your abilities are largely divorced from your appearance. Make the coolest looking character you can imagine, and develop powers from there.

Finally, I love the mix and match power sets system. Between archetypes, mixes of power sets within archetypes, the general power sets that everyone can choose, and the choices of powers within any set….that is one hell of a lot of flexibility.

Both in terms of appearance and function, flexibility that is unparalleled in a level based MMO. Absolutely brilliant.
