Hero Duo Ideas 

My friend and I want to make brother characters, and are having a difficult time coming up with any. We want to try something like "Razor and Blade" but can't really think of anything. What do you guys suggest?

You guys have concepts/powersets chosen? Helps me get inspired. The above was not inspired, just insipid.

RE: Hero Duo Ideas 

I'd have to agree with Falcon15. First pick your archetypes and power sets (preferably two that complement each other). From that we might get some inspiration. Even though I'm big on creating full fledged characters, I always have the powersets in mind first, then I wait for inspiration to strike me.



I'm an incurable altoholic, but most recently I've played as these characters:

Abana (hero, Champion), lvl 44 mag tanker, stone/stone/fit
Etain Echraide (hero, Virtue), lvl 21 mag controller, plant/therm
One Man Vs. The Mob (hero, Virtue), lvl 11 sci blaster, nrg/nrg/fly/stealth
Ballplayer Reverend (hero, Champion), lvl 19 nat tanker, will/mace/speed

Insipid eh? *flexes* I'll show you insipid.. Just kidding. I agree, naming based on powersets would be nice so that you don't name them something ridiculous like what I posted above. -_-

RE: Hero Duo Ideas 

So what powers work well for a duo? I keep thinking stone armor tanker with a kinetics defender. Tanker + defender or scrapper + defender should work, but I'm not sure if one of you wants to be relegated to a more supportive role. Maybe tanker + blaster, one to draw the fire and the other to bring the punishment.

RE: Hero Duo Ideas 

Is this about names or combos?

Combowise:
Fire/Fire-Tank + Fire/Rad-Controller
Good Damage and still all the support you need.

Energy/Energy-Blaster + FF/Energy Defender
Blasting away like some madmen without anybody getting near you, sounds fun to me.^^

RE: Hero Duo Ideas 

go fire/fire tank and sonic/arch defender


the tank will be dealing great damage by itself, and be pretty survivalbe. then you add in the shields from sonic renosance (sp?) and the toggle debuff from sonic, the tank will be at nearly capped resistance at all times, and be doing a lot more damage. you might even be able to duo avs with that (dont quote me on it though). and the archery from the defender has a nuke that doesnt drain your endurance, and only takes a minute to recharge unslotted.

overall, i would say that this combo has a lot of promise in it and i think it will be fun to play as well

I'm thinking along the lines of a "Fire & Alarm" theme here.

That sounds pretty good..

The powers are debatable, considering I'm pretty durable and willing to play most AT's. My friend is new though, so he'll probably want to stick with a tanker or blaster..

I'm really considering this one though, so how will a Fire/Fire tank and a Sonic/Arch Defender inspire you guys?

RE: Hero Duo Ideas 

Fireman _______ & Fireman ________? (Insert regular names into the blanks.)

Towering Inferno & Five Alarm?

You probably should check the names to see if they're available before you start using them.

RE: Hero Duo Ideas 

Pyrelios - Combination of Greek Pyros (fire) and Helios (Sun/Fire god)

Sonarcus - Combination of Latin Sonus (sound) and Arcus (arrow/archer)

Perhaps both magic origin, inheritors of artifacts/powers that were discovered on an archeology dig, tools of the ancient Greek gods to bring their avatars/legendary heroes back to the world (much like Statesman and Lord Recluse).
