Hey Everyone!
It's time to start discussing the next round of the Monday Night Horde Events. Right now my plan is for us to start the next round on June 13th.
We will be going back to HERO side this round. I think we are all a little sick of villain side by now, and the never ending stream of arachnos and longbow.
We'll be starting out on Hero side. I'm not sure what we'll start with. I'm thinking maybe a sewer run the first week for lowbies, followed by the hollows the next week before we tackle the Posi TF's the week after.
The Events will continue to start at 10pm Eastern, 7pm Pacific on Monday nights.
I have yet to make the schedule, but the next round will continue to feature task forces, trials, and flashback arcs of popular story lines. Any suggestions on story lines you would like to see are welcome.
As usual, I will offer the ability to be an auto sign up to those who are interested. I'm not assuming anything from this past run, so speak up here if you want to be a regular auto-signed up player. As usual, if you miss 2-3 times without bothering to let us know before or afterwards as to why, I will remove you from the auto sign up list. You'll still be welcome to join, but I won't be saving a spot for someone I cannot count on.
I know I can count on several of you to lead teams in a pinch. But I also know we'll be facing some changes this round as some of our vets take short (and long) term breaks from the game. So if you are willing to be a regular team leader, please let me know.
As always, I'm pretty flexible as to what you all play. All I really *really* would like to have are 2-3 tanks or brutes, and 2-3 debuffers (rads and darks).
So please speak up and I'll start compiling a list of who all wants to be a regular player at the events, and what you might be playing.

Quote:This has popped up in the past, and I finally had someone explain it to me recently. It seems there is a "bug?" in the game that even if you have not done the Vanguard arc, you will still get 10 VG merits for your team setting a bomb while on the ship. Which is probably where your 10 VG merits came from last night. The Vanguard arc awards the "Member of Vanguard" badge under Accomplishments I think it is. You need that badge to earn more VG merits.How do I have 10 vmerits if I don't have the ability to get them? In any case, vmerits are worthless except for big robots.
The big robots are very handy on the Tin Mage and Apex TF's. That's why I've been saving up VG merits. I went through about a thousand one night a few weeks ago buying Heavy Cores for those 2 TF's on a Master of Run. Also, you can spend 500 VG merits to get the holding sack (whatever it's called) for more salvage.
I'd love to get some kind of alternating Raid night going on Tuesdays, but I'm just not up to it mentally right now to organize one every week. Like Mothership raids, Baf's, Lambda's and possibly the Cathedral of Pain Trial and Hami Raids if I ever get to try them =P But without dedicated co-leaders, I'm just not up to setting those up at this point in time. Right now we're having some of our regular crew leave us in the Horde, and a few who have some major life changes coming up that will pull them away for a while. So leading big events like this might become a bit dodgy for a while. In fact just pulling together 2 teams might be a bit hard on the next round of Monday night events..... -
Thank you all to everyone that joined last night. It was a little laggy the first run, but not the second. Both runs we had about 4 teams of 6-8 people. Even if it was a little laggy, it was really fun having all the teams in League chat. It was also easier to keep track of people who dropped and rebalance the teams on the fly when we had drops.
Thank you to TK Kid and Dr. Turg for being raid leaders last night. I was getting swamped with tells and adding people back who where getting DC'd. I really, *really* appreciate your all's help!
Like others have said, it wasn't the best raid out there, but I hope you all had fun.
Next Monday night will be a return to our regular Strike Force schedule with a Barracuda run.
Also check out the forums for a post regarding the next set of events for the Monday Night runs. They are coming up in about a month, and it's time for us to start talking about who is still going to be joining us and who will not be.
Thanks again for joining everyone! -
Quote:I've been on two mothership runs organized both others that where in Leagues, and didn't experience any lag. If you are concerned about the League causing your team lag, you're welcome to have your team outside of the league.One small suggestion though. I would use the league interface to ORGANIZE the teams. But I wouldn't actually run the raid in League Mode. Currently the league interface introduces MASSIVE lag to the event (speaking from experience here).
I'm not here to debate one way or the other on Leagues versus Lag. I'm just here to throw a fun event for the Horde. -

REMINDER! This is TONIGHT! Looks like we're going to have a great turn out. I'm not super fond of calling out the pylons, does anyone want to volunteer for that duty?
We're going to be doing this as a League. So make sure you have league chat in your box, so you can keep up with the nuttiness.
Meet in Point du Hoc in Rikti War Zone 2. With this many signed up, we should be able to spawn a Second Warzone if it doesn't already exist.
A Note to my usual team leaders: Since we're doing this as a league, I won't be sending out team lists this week. I'll just try my best to get everyone in the league and get the teams as balanced as I can with what we have.

Quote:I'm too lazy to track down the red name post, but they have stated that this badge will be available at a later date for those who are unable to participate during this time frame.Strangely enough, I didn't participate. The e-mail mentioned the 27th through the 30th, two possible badges would be issued. Personally, I'm a little upset at the small window in which to get the badge. I'll be out of town from the 26th through the 30th to attend the greatest race on earth, the Indianapolis 500.
-
While I feel comfortable enough to follow directions on a Master of Run, I DO NOT feel comfortable leading one. I'm just too aggressive a player to take the reins on that.
As I stated before, if we don't get a second team for a non MO run going, I'll gladly give me seat up to someone who really wants the badge. I'm just there to have fun. If I get a badge cool, but if we fail, I'm cool w/ that too. It's just how I live my gaming life. -

Yep last night while we were on Megpie's Moonfire run, they started. Avatea was doing the Red Text of doom in all the chat channels. It started about 8pm Eastern, and lasted at least an hour. They hit PI, Atlas, Cap and Mercy I think. She would announce when to head to a new zone. When we finished the Moonfire, I went to Ouro and saw 4 PI's spawned at the time (around 9pm Eastern). I was tired, so I didn't partake in the festivities.
-
Quote:I'm being lazy, and I haven't read the thread yet. But last night while we were doing the Moonfire TF, Avatea kept spamming the chat channels with red text that there were Praetorian Invasions happening in different zones. I think it's more like the anniversary events, or Rikti Invasions. You show up, take down some enemies, have some fun. I'm not sure if there are badges associated with it or not. I know when we finished our TF, there were 4 Peregrine Islands spawned, and I think by that point the invasion had moved on to the Rogue Isles.It says in the per this that we have to enroll....how are we supposed to enroll? It doesnt really give specifics, perhaps Im missing something?

Quote:Lore pets are controllable in the same way Mastermind pets are.......Can the higher level pets be sent to tasks while you go somewhere else? The ones I have always follow me. Please post your results afteward this weekend.
Edit: And may I introduce you to Paragon Wiki? I suggest you spend some time reviewing information there.....

If there is enough interest, I could run a second team for a "NON MASTER OF" Lady Grey. If there are people other than me that just want to run a LGTF, and don't HAVE to have the badge. If there's not enough interest for that, one of the badgers can have my spot. It's all good =)
-
That blue on blue while viewing as a hero is a bit hard to see
Thanks for the list. If we have everyone show up, I'll lead Team 2. -
Welcome to Freedom Irradiated Beanstalk! I love that character of yours Mr E =)
I'm coming to this. Toon TBA. -
Thanks to everyone that was able to join us last night! We ended up running with 2 teams. I hope your computer issues get worked out Myr!
My team was:
Soothesayer Talona: Mind/Thorns Dom
Bleakest Death: Necro/Dark MM
Torrtuga: Fire/WP Brute
Motorpsycho Nitemare: Psi/MM Blaster
Double Shot: DP/Fire Blaster
Koroslav: Ice/Cold Corr
Witch Tarot: Stalker
Ragypt: Fire/Storm Corr
We finished the Mender Silos SF in about 41:06 with 30 deaths. Most of those where in the final mission. Sorry I wasn't better prepared. I should have at least reviewed the mission first since it had been so long lol. But we had fun, and kicked lots of heroes butts!
Afterwards we decided to run the first villain respec since it was the TF of the week for a few more hours. We lost King Sac on Koroslav, but we picked up Luchs (Megpie) on his stalker. I'm not sure the numbers on that one, I closed the screen when it popped up because we were busy fighting the ambushes.
During the respec Mr E hit 50 on his Mastermind, Bleakest Death! Congrats E!!!
Next week we're going to do a mothership raid, using the league format so that we can all chat easily amongst the teams. I'll try to get the sign up list up today so we can drum up lots of interest for it!
Also, we'll be starting the next round of Monday night events in about a month, so if you're joining, it's time to start thinking what you want to play with. We'll be starting on hero side this time. As usual, I'll need 2-3 tanks/brutes and 2-3 debuffers amongst the "regular" players. Everything else is just whatever you want to play! -
I'll be on Spectral Pixie: Ill/Kin for the wee bit of xp we'll be getting =)
-
REMINDER: This is Tonight. In case anyone cares.
-
When you first log on each day, the main chat box will list your global name. Just scroll all the way to the top of your box and you should see it. It'll be with an @ symbol. It allows people to be able to send you messages no matter what character you might be playing. It also allows them to global friend you, so that it's easier to get to together for teaming.

Quote:Start with the Villain one which goes quickly before doing the Hero respec. That way you don't get burnt out after the reactor roomOK - running this one more time - I picked up some nukes this week & noted the "auto TP" in the instructions for D11.
I will also be running the WST following these (most likely both sides if I have enough energy): Hero Respec #1 - Sky Raiders & Villain Respec #1 -
Quote:Megpie's not on the forums, but he runs an event every Thurs night at 8pm Eastern focusing on one of the weekly strike targets. He switches around between hero and villain side. This week he's running the Hero Respec. There is no official sign up sheet for it. If someone wants to join, they should be waiting at the contact before start time.Myrdinn, you can count on me but this late puts us in the 3 reds zone...you know what that means, right? All nights please. Diva Attitude, Grav/Elec Assault Dom. Who's megpie and how do I get my WST for the week?
We announce the weekly events in the "Freedom TF Chat" channel message of the day.
