We've given you a look at <em><a href="http://www.champions-online.com">Champions Online's</a></em> <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/04/massively-hands-on-creating-superheroes-in-champions-online/">character creation</a>, <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/04/massively-hands-on-combat-in-champions-online/">combat</a> and <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/04/massively-hands-on-the-first-five-levels-of-champions-online/">first five levels</a> -- plus we just began our <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/22/create-my-champion-week-zero/">Create My Champion feature</a> yesterday. Today, we're here to tell you about one of the two zones you'll encounter after completing the tutorial zone: Desert Crisis.<br /><br />For this play-through we created a Force character with Jet Boots, who's a bit of Defender and The Comedian all rolled into one baddie-knocking hero. The force explosion power was especially fun and we discovered that taking the passive personal force field ability -- which reduces all incoming damage -- was a smart choice. Never underestimate a well-rounded character, especially when soloing.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/">Champions Online Desert Crisis zone</a></strong></p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/#2160890"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/07/champs040_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/#2160889"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/07/champs035_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/#2160888"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/07/champs013_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/#2160887"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/07/champs006_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/#2160886"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/07/champs004_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/23/massively-hands-on-champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Massively Hands-on: Champions Online Desert Crisis zone</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/23/massively-hands-on-champions-online-desert-crisis-zone/">Massively Hands-on: Champions Online Desert Crisis zone</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:00:00 EST.
