The really annoying flying piece of junk needs to be put down.
But since it's hard to get log/go to the right zone/find it/get a team going/kick it's behind before it takes off again, I'd like to know if anyone is interested in patrolling Grandville in wait for it.

Sorry I didn't reply to you sooner. I've been meaning to do so since I first saw your message a few days ago, but when I log off the game itself in the early morning hours to check up on the forums, I tend to have so much trouble connecting to them that I often give up trying to post anything.

Anyhow ...

After they implemented the Hero and Villain Zone Event Messages in Issue #12, perching on top of the statue of Lord Recluse in front of the tower all day, evening, night and morning, hoping and praying for the Grandville Flyer to spawn, fortunately became somewhat redundant. (You do have Villain Zone Event Messages enabled I take it?)

What I think you should do, is to subscribe to the Defiant Events and DefiantBadgers channels, and if/when you see the "Arachnos Flyer patrol beginning in Grandville." message on Villain Zone Event Messages, shout out on both channels that you wish to take it down.

I usually have a Mastermind on stand-by in Grandville in case anybody needs help with it, and it shouldn't be too difficult finding some more people unless they're all really, really busy with a Strike Force or a Respec Trial or something.

Also, the Grandville Flyer fortunately isn't too hard to take down, (I kinda suspect they've stealth-nerfed it at some point,) and unless you have really slow loading times when zoning or logging over, there should be enough time to do so before it flies off and despawn.

Good luck!

Congratulations!

Last time I checked, the player numbers villain-side were still quite a bit higher than they used to be before the launch of Issue #12 -- although not as high as during the first couple of weeks, when they reached numbers not seen on Defiant since prior to the Union-only Double XP Event. Not too bad I guess, with this being the summer slump and all.

But there was an unusually sharp drop-off on my global friends list about two weeks ago, when 15-20 of the "old-timers" suddenly left within two or three days without leaving a forwarding address or any explanation. I don't know what happened. Seems to me things just turned weird for some reason.

But thankfully about a quarter of them have started logging on again in the past few days. And there's still more than enough people to start a villain-only Imperious or Lady Grey TF/SF on a whim late at night.

Congratulations on Stalking your way to level 50, Shock!

(Oh, my! My forum-fu has been weak as of late, and I've got so much catching up to do ... )
