Double XP Weekend Review

Jan 26, 2009 04:44

This past weekend was Double XP Weekend in the City of Heroes/Villains game, of which I am an addict, and so I spent nearly the entire weekend, from early Friday to 7 pm on Sunday, chained to my computer, with only occasional breaks. Because who the heck needs sleep anyway? It was Double XP Weekend!

Anyway, the weekend was a great success for me. Because....





My baby Shade is all growed up and destroying the entire world! *sniffle* That's right, my character Tainted Shade reached level 50 on Saturday, the top level in the game, and above is the traditional "ding" picture. Shade was my first character in the game, and I had my two year anniversary in early November, so that's 2 years and about 3 months of playing my grumpy little stalker. Hitting 50 means he goes into semi-retirement as far as being played for team nights, but he's available to PL others anytime, plus I want to get all the crafting badges for him, which will take time and money, so he'll still be busy in the Isles. Besides, he's my baby! I'm not giving him up any time soon, and I have way too much fun playing him.

So, Shade went from level 47 to 50. Here's how I did with other characters I played:

Kittensaurus, my emp/energy defender in the LD5 sg, went from 26 to 30.

Takuya, my emp/psych defender in the DoP sg, went from 47 to 49. Nine pips away from 50!

Kuya (yes, 'evil' Takuya), my brand new pain dom/dark energy corruptor in the Black Sunday sg, went from 3 to 9 during team night Sunday. And was very confused about it all. :)

And Ikioi, a newish martial arts stalker in the Black Sunday sg, gained one level, 6 to 7, because I only played her in brief moments here and there when no one else was on.

So, all in all I'm tremendously happy with how the weekend went! Thanks to everyone I played with, without whom I could not have gotten those levels, especially on Shade and definitely on Takuya. Love you all, and I hope everyone feels their weekend was just as successful!
