For your consideration and comments.
The other night I joined in a group of people doing a Respec mission and it didn't go well. The people playing had good heart but they were trying to do it with 8 toons, 5 of which were Defenders, 2 were Blasters, and little ol' me a Scrapper. I got what I deservered....Debt! They had tried to balanced their group but had a hard time finding what they needed.
So how often have you been on a team (or Solo) and thought," boy, we ( I ) could really use a healer" or any other Archetype. We are a helpful group and are always willing to lend a hand, so you might have looked through the SG but the only person on is "Soul Tenant" and you don't need a Scrapper. What you might not have known is that "Soul Tenant" also has an Alternat that just happens to be a healer and you missed out on just what you needed right here within the Group.
I'm sure that this idea is not a new one, but I suggest that we have a section of our website devoted to a "Roll Call" of our Toons and their Alt.'s so that when we see them online and need help we would already know what to ask for. This would be Strictly Voluntary and All Rules of Curtesy should apply.
Now a second thought ... How many of us would be willing to devote one or two of their slots to those hard to find Archetypes. We could spend time shepherding these Alt.'s to a decent level so that they will be ready for action if needed. ( Power leveling should be your chose, of course.)
So, are there Alt.'s out there that you would like to be known as?
Are you willing to make new Toons for this purpose?
Are their problems with this suggestion that I haven't thought out?
The floor is now open for your comments.
