Im sure after the game is in full swing and they figure out lvl content they will look at adding Giant Monsters to some the zones. I still need to find all of them in COH lol.

Giant monsters would be very nice but add the twist that you dont just beat it, you tame it and can use is as a weapon to defend your base.

There are a couple in there from what I understand. There's a CoT monster as well as another one or two. I'll see if I can get info on them. I don't know if they're zone event monsters though. They might be strike force or mission monsters.

I can certainly vouge for Deathsurge's presence in Cap Au Diable. When I encountered him with my level 15 Dominator, he was level 20 with "Giant" and "Monster" descriptors. The results weren't pretty....
Deathsurge Strikes!

I'd also like to welcome you to the site, Bary. Plus, I can confirm that you definitely don't get a badge for Deathsurge. A call went out for him while I was running around Cap, and we formed a team to take him down. I died once, but we eventually conquered him. Unfortunately, the only reward was the experience. If you ever want to take him down, he hangs out around the New Haven waypoint. I'm relatively confident that it's impossible to solo him. Good luck though. :)

I've run into Death surge with a full team of 18-20th level villains and it is IMPOSSIBLE to solo him, and I'll stick to this until someone proves me wrong.
He's classed as a Giant Monster and usually has 3 level 20 Imps running with him or nearby that are difficult to deal with.
He planted my brute once and that was enough to get to me so I went back and gave him a good kick upside his head with my team.
Took 25 minutes and thats including about 7 Mastermind Pets attacking too!
A good fight, shame no badge, mebbe you have to defeat him X number of times first... who knows, next time our paths cross he won't plant me in the sidewalk!

Okay let's update this a bit in case anyone else new reads it. YES there are giant monsters in COV
DeathSurge in Cap Au Diable (supposedly a 20 level but he adapts to the team he's facing.. so even 50 levels have a time battling him) and NO you can NOT take him out solo. Also be prepared for a runnng battle he loves to run once attacked and will lead all over the north side of the island if you let him. Now the update.. while it may have been true in 05 that you got no badge for taking him down You most certainly do now (only once however If you're crazy enough to go after him again it's just for fun and XP/INF/Prestige)
Ghost of Scrapyard in Sharkhead (can't remember exactly what skill level he's listed at but now he morfs to the level of the team he faces as well). And if you thought Deathsurge was tough .. Scrapyard has about 50 Irate miners in tow that attack your team once you attack him. That is one heck of a battle to watch let alone be involved in. Like Deathdurge there is a badge you get if you defeat him once .. after that you're just having fun.
Cabel is in Nerva and I have yet to battle him. You have to kill a certain number of spawns to awaken him and for some reason by the time folks get to Nerva they are pushing toward Level 40 and their Patron powers so I guess no one wants to take the time to get him to appear. I do believe there is a badge for defeating him as well but since I don't have a single toon that's earned it I can't swear to that.
There is ONE more I didn't see anyone mention although technically it's not a GIANT Monster. In Port Oakes you go to the Arachnos Fort and capture ghosts of the Pirates that founded the Rogue Isles to Earn 2 different badges. The first USED to require capturing the souls of 50 ghosts It was when I earned it but now the Dev(s) have rolled that back and it only takes 10 (I'd write in and complain I want the badge 4 more times but i doubt it would do me any good LOL) The second, as far as I know, is for capturing 100. This is no easy task and requires a team as well.. and a team with some time on their hands. Like I said not really a GIANT Monster like in COH but quite a trial all the same and one that very few take the time to earn. Once you get your badge it also opens up a special contact with a whole story arch revolving around ghosts .. Don't earn the badge Don't get to do the missions.

Mia,
Nice write up, but our COV section here on the COH site is kind of misleading. The section was created before COV was released. It was just for speculation and news. About a month or two before release of COV we added a whole separate http://cityofvillains.gameamp.com.
So all info and threads in that section are really outdated. On this list the monsters are there, but a bit hidden under their specific factions.
