So we all know Blasters are the most played.
But what AT is (according to your observations on your server) is the least played? And what powerset is the least used?

Thanks for any input :)

Probably some of the tanker powersets... most of them seem to be Inv or Fire with SS or Fire... equally there aren't many dark defenders, and all controlers are underplayed.

So umm.. dunno. I can tell you what Fotm is though (thats anything with "fire" in it really, burn tankers, fire controlers, fire blasters and the exception to the rule, AS/Dev blasters)

Aha ok! How are scrappers at the higher lvls? Many of them? Seem to be quite a lot of them at low lvls. Which Scrapper and Tanker Powerset would you say is least played?

Thanks again :)

Don't see too many broadsword/katana scrappers. Most scrappers generally go with Regen as their secondary power ... very useful. I can't even remember what the other powers are. :s

I've got a broadsword scrapepr with regen, but tbh I don't really use him and will probably delete the character.

I've got a Dark/Dark scrapper and a Martial Arts/Super Reflexes one. Both fun to play though the MA/SR isn't the hardest hitter ;)

Agreed. I'm one too (called Lookalike on Victory, in yellow n blue spandex) ;)

I've not seen that many controllers either. (started friday btw - so a noob at COH atm, i guess), 2 level 6's... and a few failed costume designs ;)

Not seen anyone with Katana / broadsword yet
A ton of blasters
A few defenders

Lots of fire going around.

All my observations after the last couple of days

Claws/Regen is by far the most comon scapper template. There used to be a lot of "ninja" types - Katana/SR, too, but they seem to have vanished now. I have a BS/Regen scrapper who is quite fun, though I don't play her much (my favourite backstory out of my chars though)

BS is probably the least played, though I'm not sure. Most ATs have one or two combinations that are deemed to be "best" and you see a million of them about (claws/regen scrappers and AR/dev blasters for example), the other combinations are often hard to choose between.

I personally have a BS/Regen scrapper (totally uber) and a AR/Energy blaster which is just TOO cool for words! :D Shoot some guy up and then send him flying off a roof top with the energy punch! Energy also has that damage/accuracy buff which is pretty handy in a pinch.

Thanks to this thread I actually looked at the character selection screen and dusted off my lvl 7 katana/regen scrapper that has been lying around for I don't know how long, having tons of fun :)

There always seem to be plenty of controllers around when I'm looking for a group :)

That's cos controllers are always looking for a group not soloing, unlike a lot of the other ATs.

I thought FOTM was any blaster with Devices secondary until smoke grenade gets fixed. :).

I'm still playing btw even though me bruv. (Cornell) has stopped. I just post on the official boards winding the yanks up all the time.

Plenty of hulk tanks/scrappers on protector, as well as blasters.
Not many defenders other than empathy or forcefield characters.

I have noticed that any Endurance Drain powers are never used properly, as ppl tend to go for outright firepower. Pity realy as an Endurance Drainer comes in bloody handy on a TF.
