    It actually depends on your interpretation on tanking as to whether or not you see fit to have to set yourself the limitations that will allow Ghost Widow to be able to eventually Soul Storm you.

    Fortunata - Giosetta Felicita (means Good Luck. Italian like some other Fortunati)
    Widow - Victoria Lake (Victoria Lake area , Australia, Widow spider)
    Huntress - Carolina Wolf (Carolina Wolf Spider)
    Bane - Arizona Black (Arizona Black Snake)
    Crab - Thomasina Rey (Type of Crab Spider, Rey area California)

    I think that's how I got their names anyway.

    Wooh! You made 45+?

    Our team has been good, but the regularity of members being on at once might delay progress enough for Triumph to bag it. This worries me.

    It'll go better next time from having people who were experienced from the first time clearly. Do we live and hope to be the first or do we, do what we must?

    We've got to make two nights or afternoons in a row I think for eachother by the end of the month. It'll be nice if people can pm their free time for me to find a window of opportunity and to have as many reserves as possible. It'll have to be a split TF if we don't get the manuevers down (Gravimetric Snare should help) or longer than 3 hours.

    Due to time constraints and the thing taking over 3hrs. It would be in our favour to do two days in a row on this soon, before the end of the month.
    Jonny Cash can tri form with second build for the Snarer. I am hoping that with that we will have things much much easier. Ideally could do with another back up.

    @New Dawn - Antagonist
    @Jonny Cash - Tankmage + Snarer
    @Aragorn
    @Anna Puna - Damage Nova form.
    @Chaos Womble - Kiter
    @Dwayne Pipe
    @Sexy Kane - Pinner
    @Neoplasm

    Never played it, ya might as well been speaking dutch to me.

    We just need a 3hour window one night to do Aeon and a 3 hour the following mate to do last mish rather than 3 hours on sundays only or whatever it is.


    Quick question to prevent any scampering off of the AVs does anyone have gravimetric snare?

    Needs snarer to prevent the running. The changes for Nova slotting should come home on the last part when doing Lord Recluse. The pinner should come home on Scirocco and Ghost Widow partially due to the map geography.

    To be able to do this soon we are going to need people with the playtime to do it soon. To have only a 3 hour window, one day a week because of one person just isn't going to get this done in a hurry. Due to the AI last night we are probably best off with a snarer in the team too. I didn't check peoples powers for that as normally it's not needed.
  8. New Dawn
    So far we stopped for the night as people have work in the morning and it does come first. Check in at 7:00pm to 7:30pm just with me if ya like on any given night in the hopes we can resume it soon. I don't expect people to be about everynight but itll be nice to get this "out of the way" and part of our past asap.

    Edit: Just dawned on me that there is a time limit with the temp powah vs Aeon. To resume is to restart. Oh well, gonna need to do the Aeon mish before any breaks.
  9. New Dawn
    OK bud, we got a replacement. We'd be a bit down on Nova form damage but hopefully we can get an earlier start to compensate.
  10. New Dawn
    Four slotted Rest
  11. New Dawn
    I doubt there will be much of an analysis. Aeon, Ghost Widow and Scirocco should be tricky without temps and thats the way we doing it. The rest shouldn't be too bad even with LR and his tower giving him way over the top defense. I just hope we get the manuevers right.
  12. New Dawn
    It'll be a good thing when there is more content that isn't simply about S/L and damage.
  13. New Dawn
    I wouldn't mind Dual Pistols / Martial Arts but never giving us what we really want and leaving us forever hoping for it maybe one way of keeping us in the game.

    @Charnell? OR @Jonny Cash?
    @Chaos Womble
    @Destoroyah
    @Sexy Kane
    @Dwayne Pipe

    Jonny got in touch with me a little later that night. With Charnell with possible commitments at the weekend it might be best if Charnell is reserve. Jonny has had some bugged email thing which messed things up otherwise he would of been there. Charnell has a band from what I gather they can do gigs last minute so the decision I am making "might" be fairer on the majority. Almost always from my experience there is always a need for an extra person cos bleep happens.
  15. New Dawn
    SB not needed but it is preferable

    @Charnell?

    Doing the maths we might need to replace one of us for next Sunday at 7:30pm which will be the 16th.
  17. New Dawn
    Thats no excuse. I didn't have elude on my SR and find my Ice much better at tanking.

    Dark/Dark Tanker

    POST-ACTION

    Given the name "Nethersand" Deth I would think Earth Mastery was part of the concept. I actually like the concept, as I said with someone elses youtube video where they looked alot like Sandman from what they did graphically to their Dark/Dark.

    To the OP the order of powers can be important as you may want an exemplarable build that allows different powers all the slots they need to get the bonuses you want.
  19. New Dawn
    Saphi's not that flexible so we are going to even more so rely on Dwayne Pipe. I don't actually expect a full turn out as I am not sure where one other person is at and felt Dwayne Pipe would fill in for them anyway.
  20. New Dawn
    @Charnell can't make tonight but has a second called @Saphi.
    Last minute changes can cost the end result as there are certain tweaks to peoples builds that can help the speed and easiness of this immensely.

    It "might" not be a Go tonight as it can waste everyones time.

    However I will see how flexible Saphi is and if we all meet up anyway; it could be a go or a good time to arrange another date between us. It's easier on me to arrange a new date with everyone together.

    Anyone who said they would be there and are not without either good reason later, notice or a second may be off the team as we all need to rely on eachother. It is unfair on everyone who is really into getting this done if people don't show.

You are better off running shield scrapper (Dr Aeon pawned our ice tank in STF last week, the scrapper picked him and tanked it without a hitch)...
    I've seen SR scrappers deal with Aeon and co, so Icetanks don't have to be owned even without both defenders and controllers in the team.

    Never judge something from someone in game and never underestimate others in what they and their teams can do on other servers. I see alot of people living in their own little boxes like it's the only box to live in following laws like they're the only laws that have to apply to others.

    I have a better question, if time bomb gets fixed ever any at all, what power immidiately replaces it as the worst in the game given where it is in the scheme of things?
    Timebomb helped me by reducing actual fight duration. You could have a group in theory that you have an expected life expectancy of 15 secs but the group versus you could have a life expectancy of 20. You would take 20 secs in killing them but they would have 15 secs in killing you. Timebomb lets say would damage them without you being attacked and therefore lower their life expectancies. On its own not likely, but stacked with trip mines - likely. So it was never the worst ingame. The worst ingame is something far worse, probably a passive everyone skips.
  23. New Dawn
    If you enter the groups at the same time you can actually share as in some of what could go for the other don't. The guy I did this with was very surprised.
  24. New Dawn
    Tankers redirect enemy fire better than anyother hero AT and quite simply that can be helpful.
  25. New Dawn
    As long as I can remember it's the taunt component that's autohit which is all that mattered to me.
