    Getting the Ghost badge (Buster) is painless to get - they tend to spawn every other door spawn this year - way, way up from normal (not even counting last year).

    The Zombie spawn rate seems reduced, nothing overly critical - just that if you are starting from scratch, Dead Head is the last badge you will get.
  2. I am now down to 3 heroes (IG-2112MD, Master TimeLord & Mr E-Being) & 3 villains (Dark Willow, Neon Widow & Bleakest Death) needing the new event...

    I was able to finish off Cold Satisfaction villain side before switching to heroes & joining with KK to run with Energy Arc & Beauty in a Bubble.

    I still need the GMs & Unseelie on 2 villains: Neon Widow & Bleakest Death

    And a couple on both sides still need some of the costume badges (mostly just Ostentatious).

    For the short amount of time I was actually able to log-in this weekend, I think I did pretty well with the events.

    It's cool - we all have nights like that & we got through without incident.

    So we ran with one full team last night.

    The Team:

    Mr E-Mech: Bots/Traps Mastermind
    Terror Jones: Earth/Fire Dominator
    Muse of Chaos: Widow
    Brimstone Ryder: Fire/WP Brute
    QuiXreat: EM/Nin Stalker
    Nocturne Effect: Mind/Psi Dominator
    Mourir: Fortunata
    Macarius: Necro/Storm Mastermind

    We had Brimstone lead to max-out our levels.

    Upon exiting the 2nd mission against the Devouring Earth, we lucked into a Deadly Apocalypse event, so we moved to the various sigils (two by two hands of blue) and successfully earned all of the badges & temp power.

    And then, sitting right above the final mission door was Jack - looking very lonely again, so we took him out as well.

    The last mission went very easily - Scruffy stealthed to the Thorn Room & TPed us in. We did have some deaths, so I think that Nericus forgot to set a death counter when we started...my estimate was approximately 4-6 defeats.

    I chose the Respec Reward (for the badge of course).


    Villain Respec Trial #2: 10/24/09 - Stat Box

    So some of us decided to try to spawn Caleb since we were already there...Is it possible to spawn Caleb with this perpetual night? Well, we did not have any luck with him.

    Thanks for joining everyone - it was a lot of fun & quite successful (all except Caleb).

    --------------------------------

    So after that when I was standing at the BM in Cap, I saw the Supernatural Activity alert in Sharks, so I switched off to Mr E-Villain & picked up the lone banner I needed to complete his set of badges.

    I even helped a team take down Ghost of Scrapyard since they were having difficulty.

    --------------------------------

    I then saw the Supernatural Activity alert for Skyway, so I switched off to Mr E-Man & joined a team (and I have to say, some people just do not get how the event works) - but after a lot of yelling (on my part) some of my teammates decided to listen to me & we were able to acquire all of the badges.

    --------------------------------

    I then saw the Supernatural Activity alert for Bricks, so I switched off to Slayer Faith & joined a team (once again, the man with the star had not clue). Thankfully a tank & I stayed at one banner that had a team taking it down or we would have missed that badge.

    All-in-all, a very successful night on my end.

    The good news is Halloween was extended to Nov 10th, so there is still time to get what you missed.

    See you in the game!
    Shortly after everyone logged, I was able to run the Deadly Apocalypse event again, this time in PO with good results - even though our team was not full, everyone got all of the badges.

    Later, I was logging out & decided to work on my graveyard badge so I went to Sharks & what do I see standing in the middle of Potter's Field? Good ol' Jack looking very lonely

    It took a few minutes to get a team together, but we took him down easily after we formed up.

    So I finished off all the Halloween badges on Thumper Kills.

    Number of restarts: 2

    Ven Infinity joined us for round 1 on Nhytshade, but decided to call it a night when we restarted after a miscommunication led to Xort's death. Had what looked to be a lag death in the second go on the first mob, so we thought the third time would be a charm. During the 3rd mission though, MB's end ran out and the toggles dropped; another death, lol. We then decided to just finish it.

    Time: 0:48:28
    Deaths: 10

    Good run gang, maybe next time!
    Sorry you were not successful last night.

    Sorry you all were not successful. Glad I went to bed early. Still feel not good, but the sleep was nice.

    See everyone soon!
    I'm in the same boat Luna. I was asleep by 10:30pm. The rest was nice, but I am still feeling like crap today.
  10. I hate doing this on short notice, but I need to pull out of tonight's Mo... run - I am feeling totally craptastic.

    I'm going to log in now to send a couple PMs.

    I leave everyone in the most capable hands of MB, Paragon & Nericus - they know this TF better than I do anyway - lol.

    Good luck tonight!

    Probably about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hrs (saying we are moving a little slow in order to be careful).
  16. Just a reminder - This is tonight!

    Also, unless we get some last minute additions, we are probably going to have to knock this back to one team since we are not close to two teams.

    We'll see how things shake out tonight.

    Also, I will probably do some Halloween badging after we successfully complete the TF tonight...if anyone would like to join.
  17. Well, since I wasn't on early, I don't know how bad it was for the rest of you, but the event is fairly easy if you can stick to the plan & get the rest of the people in zone to do the same...
    • Each team should split up with 2 people at each banner to kill mobs - this get the blue bar moving pretty fast.
    • As soon as the bar is blue, attack the banners - forget the mobs.
    • When a banner drops, everyone on that banner should split out to whatever banners are still up.
    • After the last banner falls - search & destroy on the greater aspect.

    I'm not quite sure at this point. These TFs have always spawned based on the highest team member. I am just not sure if the SSK is being taken into consideration based on our past issues...
  19. Even though the Shadow Shard TFs are notoriously difficult to stealth, I am thinking that I should be ok, since I have PFF for protection for when I am seen (at least it should protect me long enough to get out of harms way).

    My first choice was going to be my WS for this...versatility and all...and who doesn't love the occasional cyst?

    Based on the sign-ups, I will probably take a support character...either IG-2112MD: Emp/Rad Defender or Master TimeLord: Mind/Kin Controller.
