Better late than never, the Geek Show Podcast has reviewed Champions Online on their November 9th show. You'll have to fastforward through most of the podcast to find it and the language is certainly unsafe for work.

I think the only major I still haven't defeated is Teliosaurus.

I have been playing Champions since the 80s, I still run a campaign once a month. I wanted to voice my disappointment in Cryptic's supposed rendition of the Champions RPG. I think they failed miserably, the graphics look like poor Silver Age comics and the game system is not truly customizable (which is where Champions the RPG succeeded. HERO had a great product for a great opportunity in the MMO world. And Cryptic destroyed its potential. I am starting to believe Cryptic needed to slap a title on top of their game when Marvel quit them and came to HERO to save the day. I don't know if the developers did not understand the game system or just did not car…

Hey guys, I have a character who is pretty much a straight Force weilder. He has Personal Force Field as his passive defense power. I just hit level 21, however, and decided that I would invest in Invulnerability, thinking htat they would stack. Was I wrong about the stacking? Am I going to need to respec? Best, Dragonfly

Hey everyone. I have a couple of questions and would appreciate any answers. In Champions online, is there a type of money? do creatures drop it, or do missions reward them? Also, I wanted to know if there are better weapons to upgrade to. For example, can a sword users save money until he can buy a stronger sword? If you can answer these questions, please write back.

Greetings I was wanting to start a discussion about powers and their pro vs con's. I thought that we could do this as a kind of list... your list of the best of the best powers from your experiences. So, lets start like this: 1. Energy Builder a. Melee b. Ranged 2. Damage Dealer a. Melee b. Ranged 3. Passive 4. Block 5. AOE a. Melee b. Ranged 6. Hold Of course this is all due to builds, playstyle, and Super Stats. But it is also clear that not all CO powers are created equal. So let's hear your thoughts.

Greetings I had created, a while ago, a MA/Claws Character (called BlindSide) which I haven't really leveled much yet. So as I have been reading the forums and trying to plan him out, I'm beginning to get the idea that the MA/Claws Powerset is a bit lack-luster. Does anyone have a Character like this? Have you had any success? Do you have any suggestions? Or should I give up and scrap him for a different toon?

I was very excited when I learned that Champions Online existed. I have had a love affair with the Hero System since the very first few months from the first publication of the 1st edition (I still have the books.) I left tabletop gaming fifteen years ago but my interest in the Hero System was rekindled by the thought of being able to play my beloved system online. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered that not one iota of the 'Hero System' exists in Champions Online. Instead it seems to be a Diablo variant writ super hero. This post is a muse and a wonder. Does anyone think, or like me hope, that there will someday be the opportunity to play the 'Hero System' …

I found this little gem when I was on Pinnacle Entertainment Group's Website. Clockworks, apparently, is based the artist's Savage Worlds campaign. He's even slowly put up game stats. Fun comic Enjoy!

The king of the Lemurians, arch-traitor to the Empyreans, is going through some interesting changes: http://www.champions-online.com/heroes/arvad IMHO this is the best example I've seen yet of Cryptic Studios taking an established CU character and advancing his development in an unexpected but logical direction. Makes me more optimistic for the future of the franchise.

I ran the first session of a new campaign in my Adventure in Aerth setting. This was a ftf game and was a ton of fun. I wasn't sure how many players would show, but I was sure it would be either two or three so I made four characters. The premise of the campaign currently is following the adventures of a Pirate/Privateer Captain Jeralld Risky. The four possible player characters are lessor members of the crew, able seamen if you will: Graff - Half Utan/half Wudatan. A gentle giant and borne to the Cutpurse. Lacking the heart for axework, much to the ire of Captain Risky, Graff has no interest in fighting nor axework. His natural inclination seems closer to lingu…

I'm just trying to get some basic info on champions online. Like, what is the max level? Do skills level up and how? Also, I want to know if you have weapons or items that increase your power, and is this the type of game where you have to hunt a certain creature for a certian weapon? If you know the answers to any of these questions, please answer back.

Throughout November, I'll once again be doing some free character portraits. Having learnt my lesson last year however, this time it'll be a limited number; 9 in total. It's not first come first served, but rather I'll pick the nine character ideas I like best, and you can either have them painted or done in my vector style (examples follow). The requests can come here, or on the Champions Online board, so it'll be just Champions characters. So, if there are nine people who'd like one of my wobbly pics, please, post away! Painty: Vector:

Okay he is the deal, I've always hought that martial artists str score have been too high-mainly because of the lifting capacity. I am planning a video style ma campaign-because it is similar to a regular champions campaign. The one thing in my mind that stills causes me headaches though is why would a normal, i.e. Seeker or Crusader have a high str score ? (Note their scores are 25 and 20 respectively). Also I'm not looking at reducing their scores. For years I have been trying to do that, and well the hassle is not worth the reward. So how about it, what sfx should I give guys like this ?

Blood Moon Undead Heroes tips [possible spoilers]
by Guest Celt- 2 replies

Tip 1 - You can track your completed undead hero quests by looking at the In Memoriam perk in Events section of your perk panel. Make sure to check off the in progress button. Tip 3 - You can get the missions to enter the crypts and free the souls of the heroes from 1) beating the undead hero in MC, or 2) having it shared to you by someone else. But completing the crypt doesn't give you the perk for beating the undead hero in MC. So to simplify locating the portals in MC, get the missions which will give you the portal locations on your map. Then you can keep circling them looking for ones which will have the respawn soon. This latest patch also has you spawn at the …

Hi everyone, I recently purchased Champions online, which I'm new to the whole MMO thing. So I am have some difficulties getting the game to work properly and any assistance would be appreciated. - I have installed the game. - I have an account at Champions Online. After logging in with my password, I see a brief message at the bottom which says. No Shards Found: You have a ticket with 0 permission pairs. but no shards were found. Huh, what does that mean in english? I have heard that I am not only to buy the game which I did, but now I need to select a payment option, only then can I access the game. The options are all ongoing. I'm…

So I was playing Champions Online today and I did the second quest involving Leo's Bar. As I tried to leave the bar, the server disconnected me and I has been unable to retrieve my character so that I can continue playing. My computer is connected properly and I know it's powerful enough to play the game, since I upgraded it to make sure of that. So does anybody know what's going on?

Dunno if anyone is interested in this RPG, but I had some free time while on the clock at my FLGS and decided to take a read of it. The book is horribly organized. Page numbers are only on the odd pages, not always in the same location and sometimes not even there and they tend to blend into the "design" of the page too well. The index lists items under different names than they are listed in the actual book and the page numbers will often refer to the least informative location of the item you're trying to find. Combined with the above page numbering...this can be slightly infuriating. The fan service is rampant throughout the book. The most powerful me…
