Just a clarification for those who don't know:
The arc has to be yours to get credit for unlocking the patrons.. It isn't unlocked by doing the missions, but by seeing the contact when you are done. Nobody will get the badge or unlock the patron powers except for the mission holder (and those following along auto-completing their own arc).


[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, exactly - I am sorry I was not more clear, I was rushing out the door this morning when I put together my OP.

Each person on the team that wants to get credit for GW's arc must obtain each mission & follow along auto completing as we go. Which means a bit of running back & forth between GW & the missions for everyone until she succumbs to our charms & relinquishes her phone number.

I will try to keep track & make sure everyone is in sync (using the mission list) just in case someone is a bit forgetful.

40 to get the contact & get credit for completing the arc.

First power can be selected at lvl 41.

My point is: You can select any patron pool once you unlock them. You don't have to run that patron just because you want those powers.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, it's been a while since I ran the Patron Arcs &amp; I know that they changed where you can respec out of a specific patron into a new one.

But I did not know that you can (initially) choose whichever Patron Power Pool you wish, regardless of which Patron Arc you run.

Interesting bit of info.

It sucks that we couldn't finish...

If you want to try again after the next patch, I would be up for it.

I'll keep an eye out for you Patron Arc thread. I could use Black Widow as well and Scirocco.

[/ QUOTE ] Use them for what? Are they selling candy? lol

(There are no badges involved except for the person holding the mission)

[/ QUOTE ]

He might be talking about different characters...

Well we started a little late as I was trying to figure out the best way to split the teams &amp; also waiting for a couple of people.

Team E started out with the level range of 39-42 which wasn't too bad.

Although, even LK'd up, I proved that nothing could keep Mr E-Lectric standing for too long - I tried just about everything, but death becomes him.

I was getting a lot of these from the rest of the team...

...but it was a lot of fun as always!

Team E:

Mr E-Lectric
Pain.Handler
Kin Rothko
Wong Sun
Gabriel Keats
Inducto
Longbow Spy-duh
Lady Statique

ITF: 6/3 Stat Box - 83 deaths!

Thanks for joining everyone &amp; thanks for leading Team 50 Matres!

Next week, due to lack of Villainside SFs, I will be running the first part of at least one Patron Arc - maybe 2 or more depending on the number of teams &amp; timing.

So far only Luna let me know which Patron she wanted to go with, which is Ghost Widow, so we will definitely be running that arc.

If anyone else would like to follow along &amp; auto-complete that's cool - you are are also welcome to join in just to have some fun even if you already did the Patron arc.

If we have enough people to warrant a 2nd team, we will decide from there if we will do a different patron based on requests.

I will post a sign-up probably later today or tomorrow.

Thanks again everyone for making last night's ITF a lot of fun!

1) Extra Character Slots
2) Base Transporter
3) Nemesis Staff/Black Wand
4) Sands of MU/Ghost Slayer Axe
5) Travel Power at Level 6

Is there a regular time that these go on?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'mma start having a PERC sanctioned weekly RWZ raid night. Stay tuned for the info.

[/ QUOTE ]

I vote Tuesdays or Thursdays...

(seriously, those are probably my only unscheduled nights...)

Good morning everyone!

Just a reminder, this is set to run tonight &amp; we have a couple of spots still open.

Right now (if everyone on the list can make it) we have a level 39-44 team of 7 (or 8) &amp; a level 45-50 team of 7 (or 6).

It looks like we have a nice assortment of characters for this - I am really looking forward to tonight!

Work is sucking today...as always!

See everyone tonight!

Luna graciously left out the part where I tried pulling to thin out the AV mob and pulled the whole group. I think I singlehandedly caused two teamwipes. Very boneheaded of me.

[/ QUOTE ]

lol - I was surprised when he floated by my dead body into that little tunnel.

Update:

There was a test server patch today - try to run the updater early to avoid delays starting tonight's TF.

[ QUOTE ]
Sign up Earthmender earth/emp controller - about how long should this one take?

[/ QUOTE ]

Under 2 hrs - closer to 1 hr - it's just a lot of travel.

Also.. you forgot Named Bosses: "Faathim The Kind"

[/ QUOTE ]

Lol. Yeah that's what I get for copy and pasting things. Well we don't actually fight Faathim do we? Just free him?

[/ QUOTE ] Ok Ok.. you forgot Named Bosses: "Faathim Imprisoned!" lol j.k

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, if you "defeat" "Faathim Imprisoned!" - Faathim the Kind starts buffing everyone in range.

Thanks for running this Luna &amp; MB - I appreciate the organizing you both do for these TFs.

[/ QUOTE ] Luna organizes it. I feel bad constantly taking some credit here. All I do is show up and host a team. lol

[/ QUOTE ]

OK - well, you should be flogged then!

It was a lot of fun as always!

It was unfortunate that Scruffy had to restart &amp; the EX was lost, but it happens...

We worked through it &amp; were able to complete the TF even with that little handicap.

If we did not have that happen, we would have probably finished in about the same time that MB's team did. As it is, you could knock at least 20-30 mins off of our time that we spent trying to reset the TF level &amp; then sitting in that mission waiting for the petition response.

Great fun! I'm glad we were able to make it through to the end &amp; take down Ruladek!

The next TF is more of a social gathering, so it should be nice &amp; relaxing - maybe we'll get a zombie invasion to spice things up a bit...

Thanks for running this Luna &amp; MB - I appreciate the organizing you both do for these TFs.

PM me the times when you are available to get your billion.

Wow - just wow - I saw this last night when I was able to login during the Sara Moore TF, but did not get a chance to respond...

I have to say, I am quite surprised - I mean I knew J liked bad poetry (after reading his bad poetry for the last five years in the J-Force thread it was obvious), but I did not think it would float with the rest of the J-Force...

I mean, they have, afterall, been subjected to J's bad poetry for the past 5 years...Why would they vote for even more bad poetry?

Perhaps they are all just a little bit masochistic...

...anyway, thanks J-Force for voting my little "Ode to the J-Force" as the winner of the One Billion Influence Contest!

Mr Trix: As far as when I am on - I login most nights after 10pm eastern - and under normal circumstances, log out by 2am eastern. (Got to have some beauty sleep)

Thanks again!

Thanks again!
