What will be your first character you create?
« on: March 22, 2015, 02:14:26 AM »
When the game returns, what will be the first character you create and why?

My first will be an StJ/SR Stalker.  Was the character I was playing at the end of our city, pretty easy to level and fairly simple to make incarnate ready. 

It will be followed by, in no particular order:

Thugs/Thermal Mastermind - Enforcers with BU procs and perma Forge.
Necro/Dark Mastermind - Alot of fun, crazy tohit debuffs with zombies.
Ninja/Time Mastermind - One of a few secondaries that make Ninjas survivable.
KM/Regen Stalker - Because I hate regen and want to try to like it.
DM/SD Scrapper - Only if i24 is released. Single target powerhouse.
Spines/FA Scrapper - AoE demon.  Not many builds with more AoE than this.
WM/EA Brute - Omg, so strong!  Joking.

honestly , for me it will be a mad house where I cannot chose just a single character. It would be easier to say I plan on making all of my characters first and name sit. :D. Then afterward I would plan on a duel leveling my fire/fire blaster and my kat/will power (remake) scrapper for that inf flow.
One day the Phoenix will rise again.

Bots/Storm Mastermind, no question.  That was my first MM (and second-ever character), and the character I was playing when the game went down.

That's a good plan on the name sitting!  I recall trying to make a character named Prom Queen but was taken.  Then I tried PromQueen, taken; Pr0m Queen, taken; Pr0mQueen, taken; Prom Qu33n, taken etc.  I ended up Calling her Oven Mitzy.

Claws/Regen Scrapper
Willpower/Mace Tanker
Dark/Dark Defender

They were my first and only 50's as I was an altaholic. I'll definitely be recreating them but there will be plenty of others, I expect i'll have one of each AT very early on.

Well, assuming a fresh start, I'd have to think about which character could most easily earn all those badges the easiest. Probably a controller, or an MM. Since I'm more experienced with a controller, I think an Ill/Rad or an Ill/Kin would be the way I would go. Or - fire/ss brute.

It really would depend - is Ninja Run available? Would the badging community that I knew from LB still be around? Maybe I'd start with the brute in AE, to get a PB or WS on the journey.. I dunno.

Main: Rejolt, but elec/nrg Dom over elec/nrg blaster.

Then a bunch of Jolt-themed toons to save names. It's going to be hard not rolling a dark/fire brute or some other kind of farmer right off the bat.

Edit: this also assumes we're not limited in how many toons we can create on the legacy servers.

Likely make my main, a Melee toon (elec/shield), a support-ish toon (elec/Kin troller) and the something heartbreaking like dual pistols knowing I can't pair it with martial... Naaaah firex3 Dom.

I have a loooooong list of characters I would like to make eventually, but I've decided on my first four:

Fire/Kin troller (it was my first 50)
Warshade
Demon/Dark MM
Elec/Stone Tank

Those are the characters I'd be most excited to play right now.

I've said before that my first character will be an elec/ice controller but..... after thinking about it for along while.

I've decided that my first two characters are going to be a SS/Elec brute and a Necro/Thermal MM. The brute for farming purples and the Master Mind for teaming and TFs.

I have many more I want to make too but that will be the first two. I'll probably make the elec/ice troller too since I'm an altaholic but it'll have to come in third place now instead of first.

It occurs to me that one thing would change my answer: I think there's a distinct possibility that (if tech allows) the game may be on double XP for a while if it comes back online.  At that point I'm sure I'd create several characters for which I want to reserve names, but the one I'd be likely to actually play first would be an Elec/Shield scrapper.  It's one of my old 50s that I'd quite like to have back at max level, but I'm not so sure I want to go through the levelling process again.

The four I mentioned above, though, I definitely want the experience, and I wouldn't want to cut it short by doing it through double XP.  Actually, when the game was live I tended to play 50s on double XP weekends.  I tried levelling a character through it and found that it went so fast that I felt little attachment to it.  Just went by too fast for me to feel invested.

Naff/DP/Elec. and Time/Ice/Dark defenders and a Beam/Poison/Soul corrupter.

But I'm sure there will be more.

Fire/DB tank for farming.
WP/BS Brute for non-stop mayhem.
WP/DB Brute for history-themed character.
Inv/SS tank based on Popeye for team play and chits-n-giggles.

Clawls/fire broot for farming, dark/time corr to actually play. But i'll have a zillion alts before the first week's up if possible.
