Cool

Just a reminder, this is set for tonight.

Since no "official" tanks have signed up, I will log in on Mr E-Man & see how all the TBAs shake out.

I will be out most of the day today, so if we have any last minute adds/drops, I will adjust the roster when I return home this evening.

See everyone tonight!

I'll join if there's room, but I can sit it out if the teams don't work out. I did an ITF with my Stalker already so no big loss if I can't make it. Inducto level 41 Elec/Regen Stalker.

[/ QUOTE ]

Should be good &amp; we may actually be on the same team this time around since we are of similar levels.

Right now, we have 7 in the lvl 39-44 range &amp; 5 in the lvl 45-50 range - which is how I was hoping to make the breaks work (give or take) with maybe a Lackey/Malefactor up or down as needed.

[ QUOTE ]
Wong Sun is 40 now. Not sure how he would fit in, but I would like to bring him.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why wouldn't he fit in?

BTW - Happy Birthday Morac!

[ QUOTE ]
Put me down as a maybe with Lady Statique, lvl 40 db/elec stalker. I still haven't unlocked the zone on her yet cuz I honestly wasn't sure how to do it on Villainside and I've been too lazy to look it up for her. heh

I'll try to do it sometime this weekend, and if I'm successful, I will come along for this one. I'll update on Monday if I managed to do it or not!

If you haven't already completed the first part of the Patron Arc (that unlocks your patron powers), let me know which patron you are plan to go with.

I am thinking about running multiple Patron Arcs to fill in for the lack of +40 SFs villain side.

[/ QUOTE ]
I finished mine already unfortunately. I picked Ghost Widow and wanted to get the patron pools unlocked before I dinged 41, which I did already. I'll be happy to team up for others' patron arcs though.

As to the villain-only ITF, does that TF scale to the maximum level of the team? If not and we ended up a bunch of low 40s fighting a level 50+ Rommy that would be ugly.

[/ QUOTE ]

lol - that would be ugly (this used to happen with the Sara Moore TF a while back). The ITF does scale based on level.

i15 is on test now, so let's work on setting a date for this.

How's next Tuesday the 2nd (hero) and Thursday the 4th (Villain) night for everybody?

What start time were you thinking of MB?

If it is later in the evening, I should be good for both.

[/ QUOTE ] LoL sorry.. the standard 10pm on both nights..

I should be good for both.

Let me know what you would like me to bring:

Heroes:

Tank (inv/ss)
Scrapper (bs/sr)
Blaster (eng/eng)
Defender (emp/rad)
Controller (mind/kin)
Warshade


Villains:

Brute (ss/inv)
Corruptor (ice/dark)

Hey - I was swamped at work today, so I never got around to doing a write up from last night...

We had 10 people from the list show up &amp; we were only able to recruit one more person, so we ran with two (somewhat) uneven teams.

For my team, after we completed the hunt &amp; entered the first mission, realization dawned on me when the level 45 DE whopped me into the dirt that I did not lower my rep (keep in mind, I started the night at lvl 38, so they were +7 to me &amp; + 4 to the majority of the rest of the team).

Regardless, we trudged through the mission, taking out lumps...

When we finished with the DE mission, we learned that Inducto's team was already finished the trial... *sigh*

I lowered my rep before we started the final mission...so now everything was an easy level 43 (only +5 to me)...

We stealthed to the thorn room &amp; for the most part things went pretty well until I started trying to clear the vines in front of the tree...multiple deaths later &amp; assistance from the rest of the team cleared out the front &amp; we swiftly took down the Thorn Tree.

Villain Respec Trial #2 - Stat Box - not a bad time given howe long the DE mission took. (yeah about 3/4's of the deaths were me)

Team #1

Mr E-Lectric
Wong Sun
Longbow Spy-duh
Kin Rothko
Muse of Destruction
Gabriel Keats

When we finished up, we hooked up with Inducto &amp; Muir to run a some MA Missions.

We were promptly Rikti Rolled!


We ran Morac's: Battling Tom's Murder Extravaganza to end the night - we lost Muir to a crash in the 3rd mission.

I made a mistake with the MA missions, being the lowest member of the team &amp; running them, everything was spawning to my level which was 2 levels below the next highest person ...no challenge...

Thanks for joining everyone, next Wednesday, I would like to run a (preferrably) Villain only ITF.

Plus I would like input on running the Patron Arcs:

If you haven't already completed the first part of the Patron Arc (that unlocks your patron powers), let me know which patron you are plan to go with.

I am thinking about running multiple Patron Arcs to fill in for the lack of +40 SFs villain side.

Thanks again for everyone that joined in last night!

Just a reminder that this trial is still set to go for tongiht!

Still some spots open for anyone interested.

We currently have 2 teams running - neither one full, so we will split up as evenly as possible tonight.

Can I count on Inducto to lead Team #2 (aka the fast team) as usual?

[ QUOTE ]
So we have

12pst: Umbral
3pst: Alty
6pst: Rose

On Saturday. Maybe E-Man but it'll depend on how late an' how many JFS are still on.
We'll have ta reschedule Turg fer sure.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, since I am not on the "official" schedule, I am going to run something short on Saturday night that should be completed by the time Rose finishes her run with you.

I will be in game, so if you can still field a team, I will be available to keep you from your precious debt!

Since these trials are usually short, I will be running an MA Arc (TBA) following its completion...if anyone would like to join in.

I had great fun running this over the last couple of nights!

This TF has it all:

-Pretty Scenery: during the very frequent &amp; long journeys between missions

-Fox(trot) Hunt: while Team #3 is also hunting (sorry for all the KSing )

-Multiple Simultaneous Glowie Clicks: "I think I'm safe...damn they saw me! We need to clear these Eyes outta here!"

-Too Many Defeat All Missions: "but of course"

At least it gives a good number of merits.

BTW, I thought we were closer to 5 hrs 30 mins, but I could be mistaken.

Thanks again for organizing this Luna &amp; MB.

[ QUOTE ]
Now I didn't say any of that hoping for a compliment But thank you all.

Just cause I'm pretty good at organizing people doesn't make me a good team leader

I feel bad for anyone other than my team regulars (E-Man, Xort, Scruffy, myself and the husband) that I stick on my team each week. Cause I know they're in for the longest, most death filled team of the 2-3 . That's just how it goes!

But as long as we all have fun, that's all that matters

Luna

[/ QUOTE ]

I tend to play a little looser during the Monday events - going fully into scrapper lock mode...aggroing more than I can handle on many occasions adding to the death total.

It's all for fun &amp; truthfully anything under 7 hrs for the TF is a win! We will be finished in approximately the amount of time that Jim's team took...only spread over 2 nights.

Team Jim:

Repetitious taskforce, but the right team makes it soooo much fun! Thanks guys for a great night!

Aurora is still looking for the other 3 Shadow Shard TFs, so I'm game for another go around. Except tonight was a special night, as I had off for the holiday and I normally work Sunday nights (start of my work week).

Any chance we could do the other 3 Friday or Saturday nights?

[/ QUOTE ]

I occasionally run the SS TFs as part of my Weekend TFs, so keep an eye out.

But like MB has mentioned, if you post it up here on the boards, you will probably get a good response.

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

Team Luna called it a night after completing Mission #17 (of 24) - we probably have about an hour left to finish off the rest of the TF, so that will put us in the 5 hr range.

I am also sure that we will wind up with a bit more deaths than both teams...

[ QUOTE ]
You can be a defender, corrupter, controller or mastermind. As long as you THINK you kin keep a team alive.


[/ QUOTE ]

The rules are any of the "support" classes kin enter the contest. I specifically said "healzorz" ta make RO mad


[/ QUOTE ]

That's cool, but the use of the moniker: "healzorz" led me to believe emp or pain from those specific ATs.



[ QUOTE ]

There is still time ta sign up.

We will run three on this comin' weekend.
12 pm pst

3 pm pst

6 pm pst

If more people sign up we could run the TFs on both saturday an' sunday. I wont turn people away as long as they wanna be in the contest.

Right now we have 3 people an' I wanna know which day would be best. Saturday or Sunday?

[/ QUOTE ]

I would like to officially request a later time... 9:00pm on Sat night will most likely be too early for me...10:00pm would be pushing it, but is at least somewhat doable.

Daytime is out of the question...

[ QUOTE ]
Well E-man you bring any one of those "sacrifices" and I am sure the death count will truly be quite high. Most of them being you. hehehe
