Quote:A good point. If I was on a team with 7 tankers trying for MSTF, and I had a choice between:Something I want to clarify about this statement, I'm not saying that any "perfect" players really are perfect and that they'll always be able to do better than anyone else.
To rephrase the question, I'll use a hypothetical.
Say you have a team with 7 people and you have 2 people you can choose for the last spot (I honestly hate this scenario, because I hate for people to be left out, but stay with me). Which would you prefer, a player who isn't that good but has the perfect toon to fit the team synergy, or the player who you know is a good player, but has nothing to bring to the table that promotes team synergy? I know there will be outliers (with MoSTF runs, you do need to specialize at least a little to ensure a smooth run for example) but just speaking generally.
A. Another tank that is 60% competent.
B. A Cold that is 58% competent.
I would probably pick the cold.
However I would never play a tank in the firstplace, so it's a moot point for me =) -

Great guide!
therm is such a great set, and it's rare to find good therms -

the player
As Silas said there are a few rare cases where powersets matter, but even in those cases you still need a good player. -
What I mean is that it won't say 'badge rewarded' when you log on. But if you checked your badge list and it wasn't there, I'm not sure what's wrong.

Quote:It doesn't actually say rewarded, have to check your badge list. And make sure you're on the right character?Hello,
I was able to verify that an error has occurred. As such I have granted your character the Master of the 5th Column Strike Force badge. If you need assistance again, please let us know and we will gladly help you.
Regards,
GM Roland
...except i logged in just now and nothing
Talk about getting my hopes up! -
Quote:Hope you get it soon. Our team has started to get it (myself included). I'm glad they are at least awarding themCongratulations! <sigh> Still half of my team, including myself, still need to be awarded the badge. I PMd Synapse about the issue, but it's all on Customer Support. Their tickets is supposedly back up to the wazoo! So... Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday... still waiting ;op

I noticed something like this a few months ago. No idea what it is.

All I can think of is replacing the dam/rech in Siphon Life with a dam/end.
You could take some slots out of fire blast if you don't use it much, since you have a good chain without it.
You could replace some of the lotg (not the 7.5s) with Cytoskeletons.
Is Dark Consumption not up enough for you? -
Quote:Is the plan to award those who obtained it?Hey everyone,
I just wanted to give you all a heads up. This bug will be fixed in an upcoming incremental build soon. I apologize for the inconvenience, I know this badge is very difficult to obtain.
Synapse
Thanks for the info! -
I'm happy about lots of things. The few things I wish were different:
power customization for power pools/epic pools
fix the BSF bugs (MM temp and no masters badge awarded)
fix the Hess bugs
the fact that masters badges are now meaningless due to the -1 setting -
Quote:Nice! I really hope we get this too.Finally, a worthwhile response:
"I was able to verify that an error has occurred. As such I have granted your character the Master of the 5th Column Strike Force badge. If you need assistance again, please let us know and we will gladly help you."
Hopefully everyone will get the same reply. -
The MM temp is bugged again. You could try petitioning it, but you might not get anything.
Also, if you're trying for masters, the badge isn't being rewarded.
It sucks. -
Yep, seems pretty clear they are just avoiding the issue for now. Maybe this coming week something will happen.

Always on. You do however lose the benefit of many toggles when you get mezzed.
-
Same happened to us. We're currently waiting for a GM. We've been waiting for almost 2 hours now >.<
edit: 3 hours... -
Heads up to those thinking of running it:
The MM temp doesn't work anymore. At least it wasn't working for us. We used it exactly the same way we always do for these runs. He would phase constantly regardless. However we still managed to succesfully complete it with no deaths and no temps. The badge wasn't awarded though. We did set the requirements, and we've been sitting here for over an hour with the success screen up waiting for a GM to respond to our petition.
So in conclusion: this sucks. -
I won't run any master tf/sf on -1. Feels dirty.

Quote:This isn't quite perfect though.XP is based on damage done - if you did 90% of the damage to the mob, you get 90% of the xp, regardless who did the other 10%.
If I hold a group of enemies, and am slowly killing them, then some blaster comes in and fireballs them, he gets the majority of the xp even though I was the reason he got no return fire.
