I just got home from work... I still have not slept. I'm certainly available next Wednesday, and I still have my Patron slot open. A for who to run, I have no preference at all. I'm not familiar enough with the stories to know which would be more fun, and I'm too tired to look it up right now. lol Just post whichever seems like the next logical choice, and we'll go with that. haha

[/ QUOTE ]

lol

Get some sleep!

If I had to choose, I would say...Capt'n Mako?

(only because I have never done it before)

Second choice would be...Black Scorpion - I helped out a friend on some of the missions...

So...a small vote?

What should we run next week?

__ Capt's Mako's Patron Arc - Part One

__ Black Scorpion's Patron Arc - Part One

hehe - I was falling asleep as well during the last mission...

I fell off the edge of the ramparts a couple of times while I was nodding off...

very embarrassing

Well it was a fun, but also laggy &amp; crashy night running Sister Airlia's arcs!

At one point we had 4 people crash-out (probably my fault, I switched missions &amp; didn't realize they were entering the previous selected door).

But last night was generally laggy all around.

I was able to gain about 1.5 levels (hitting 44 upon talking to Imperious for the last mission), despite my many deaths. I definitely should petition for honorary Evil J-Force membership for Mr E-Lectric...

Thanks to everyone that was able to join in the fun - everyone but Muse was able to follow along auto completing the missions/arcs.

The Team:

Mr E-Lectric: Elec/Elec Brute
Hatake Kasumi: Widow
Gabriel Keats: Fire/Rad Corruptor
Kin Rothko: Rad/Kin Corruptor
King Legbah: Thugs/Poison Mastermind
Wong Sun: Ninja/Poison Mastermind
Muse of Destruction: Crab

Thanks once again for joining everyone.

Next week (if MB is available), we will run the first part of another (not GW) Patron Arc (not sure which one he wants to run, so I will wait for him to post).

If MB is not available, we will probably run Respec Trial #3.

I will post a sign up sometime over the next few days.

[/ QUOTE ] Fixed? (I couldn't help myself.) lol



[/ QUOTE ]

Kind of surprising I did not catch that myself... lol

[ QUOTE ]
I did some checking/testing for you..

You can't get the arc until lvl 40, but since it is not a TF, you can invite lower lvls to the team. It's restricted to lvl 35+ only because of the lvl restricted zone the missions are in... but the person hosting the mission (or wanting to follow along) must indeed be 40+.


[/ QUOTE ]

Ah - that makes sense.


[ QUOTE ]
BTW I parked MBs near the contact in hopes of getting home on time.. but the way this week is going.. things are looking grim. Well, I hope I see you all tonight, and if not.. Good Luck and Have Fun!

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I hope to see you as well, but I understand if you cannot make it! Once again, if we do not have a full team, you are welcome to join, "...already in progress..." as it were...

The upcoming schedule is Statesman next Monday (6/29), Mendor Silos (7/6), The 3rd Hero Respec (7/13) and then it all RESTARTS with Positron on (7/20).

[/ QUOTE ]
Will we be running the i15 TF in there somewhere? I'd expect it to be live by July.

[/ QUOTE ]

good catch!

If we dont plan on sleeping them then we need someone who really knows how to pull one at a time on the last mission. ive only seen one person successfully pull only 1 or 2 at a time and never been able to do it myself.

[/ QUOTE ] I've done this a couple times with E and he saw me pull them one at a time. Maybe it was luck, and I'm not promising anything.. but I'd like to try pulling first and using sleep as a backup for whoever comes with the target Hero.

The one time I saw somebody trying to sleep them all, they got killed pretty easily several times when the sleeps stared to wear off and the stacking "missed".

[/ QUOTE ]

I've got my Sleep Purpled Out and ready for duty. Just tell me where and when.

[/ QUOTE ] You... I would trust. lol

[/ QUOTE ]

WOOT! Also respec'd my pvp EM/WP Brute for this mission so if needed we can rock the house.

[/ QUOTE ]

lol - I respec'd my SS/Inv Brute yesterday (while at work)...I am working on getting some additional IO sets for him, just in case we need him...

I chose the GW patron pool to gain access to darkest night for the AoE to-hit &amp; recharge debuffs - thought it would help with survivability...

MB's "Underground STF" Team:


[/ QUOTE ]

Glad you had a good run on the STF - I considered joining, but I started to fall asleep right before MB got to Statesman to form up the team.

I wound up falling asleep, leaning back in my chair after I did my write-up...

Mr E-Man's Lady Grey Team

Flames of Mr E
Earthmender
Widowers Revenge
Tacit Blue
King Sac
Dark Elfen
General Gintoki
Dossier

We were not the quickest at 1 hr 43 minutes, but we probably had he least amount of deaths at just 7 defeats!

We pretty much cleared as we went for the first three missions. No mission failures...purposeful or otherwise...

For Hami, we used a new (well at least for me it was new) strategy...we destroyed the pylons &amp; left the Rikti alive so they would follow us into the goo &amp; cause a distraction...

Seemed to work pretty well, but it could have just been the team - we were plowing through everything...

For the last mission, King Sac was able to stealth to the end hall &amp; tp us.

We pulled Hro'Dtohz &amp; then the Honoree...both went down quite easily.

General Gintoki &amp; King Sac did the Generator destruction honors while the rest of the team took care of the ambushes.

We stayed for a bit aferward &amp; cleared all of the ambushes &amp; then the big platform in the end chamber.

LGTF: 6/22/09 Stat Box

Lots of fun as always! Thanks for putting your organizational skills to good use Luna.

See everyone on Wednesday for Sister Airlia's Arcs!

Well, I added in some additional slots over the traditional eight spots...

We will play it by ear as far as determining the final team on Saturday night based on who signs up &amp; who shows up.

I hope everyone understands the limited nature of this event &amp; does not get upset if he/she does not make the final team.

I will continue to run MoLRSF attempts on a somewhat regular basis until we get comfortable &amp; have a plan that will work for a good majority of people &amp; not just a few specific ATs/Power Sets.

This is going to be an ongoing process - I hope everyone will bear with me for a bit!

I will be forming MoLRSF attempts on various occasions in the future usually starting at 10:30pm eastern/7:30pm pacific.

I will use this thread to post a sign-up for each attempt &amp; also to gather strategies for (hopefully) successful runs.

What is the MoLRSF? It is a badge for completing the Lord Recluse Strike Force with the restrictions of No Deaths &amp; No Temp Powers allowed (which also includes Vet Reward Powers).

The Team: I am not a stickler for having the optimal team. That said, I do believe we need a good mix to be successful. But I will still give it a try even if the team has absolutely no chance at the MoLRSF.

The main idea is to have some fun!

I (currently) only have two characters at level 50 villain side - Mr E-Villain: SS/Inv Brute &amp; Cold Satisfaction: Ice/Dark Corruptor. I also have a low 40s Elec/Elec Brute (Mr E-Lectric) that loves dying, so when he is at a high enough level, I might take him along, just to make things a bit more challenging...

The next post will be the first official sign-up!

Also from the archives - what can I say, it is a busy day:

Mr E-Man's semi-regular &amp; mostly useless information post #383

Summer Solstice

Team #1 - aka the slow team finished in 2 hrs 52 mins - still coming in under the 3 hour mark that I had estimated. At least we had less deaths than MB's team!

It was a lot of fun, we seemed to be moving along quickly - maybe we could have possibly stealthed a bit more, but we tended to just clear as we went.

I believe all of the SKs leveled during the TF and after finishing off the Unveiler Badge, Marvel (or was it Xort) &amp; I were rewarded with the Freedom Phalanx Reserve Member accolade!

Team #1:

Mr E-Being
drogoh's sword
Shadowrush
Herelus
Motorpsycho Nitemare
Petra Neutron
CPT Burnone
Barstow Betty

AT Stats by Popularity for this TF:

6 Scrappers
4 Controllers
3 Blasters
2 Warshades
1 Tank
0 Defenders

I thought that warranted being posted.

Sara Moore TF: 6/20/2009 Stat Box

Once again, it was a lot of fun! Thanks for joining everyone.

Remember, Wednesday is Sister Airlia's Arcs Villainside &amp; next Saturday will be my first ever MoLRSF attempt!

Come join &amp; watch it fail horribly!

Something unexpected popped up for Deryial and I. We'll have to sit this one out.

Considering the amount of backup, I'm sure it'll make someone happy

Good Luck to all and ty again for running those, E.

[/ QUOTE ]



We'll miss you both tonight...

OK - so that means there are still a couple of spots open for tonight.

We will try to fill from friends &amp; the channels if needed.

See everyone in a few hours (almost 4).

[ QUOTE ]
posted that i can do this...then found out i had to work 2 mins after the post...thats the edit.

[/ QUOTE ]

lol

maybe next time!

[ QUOTE ]
I would like to come along. Not sure what the team will need though.

[/ QUOTE ]

Whatever you want to bring!

[ QUOTE ]
Might be a last minute changes in plans on Saturday. How long does this TF last ?

[/ QUOTE ]

Last time we ran it, MB's team finished in 2 hrs 21 mins - Luna's team in 3 hrs 33 mins, but we did suffer the lvl 50 melt-down (where the majority of us were low level &amp; the missions were spawning at lvl 50+ from about 2/3rd of the way through the TF). We also wasted about 20 mins trying to reset the TF lvl &amp; then just waiting around for a response from support...

I am hoping for under 3 hrs.

Very cool - looks like we will have plenty of 50s to handle any SKing duties!

Still a few spots left to fill for two teams!

Updated the OP - still some slots open for a 2-team run!

Also, if you post here to join &amp; I do not update the list, it is because I will be out &amp; about from early afternoon to late in the evening tomorrow.

Rest assured that I will add you to the list as soon as I can.

[ QUOTE ]
BTW, will this be run from the contact herself, or from Ouro? I suppose if you don't mind, I could just jump on a team when I get home if there is room..


[/ QUOTE ]

We will be running it from the contact - with hopefully (mostly) everyone following along &amp; auto-completing as we go, so if you are late &amp; wish to still join in &amp; we have room, it should be cool.
