  1. Welcome back! There is a sticky posted on Victory about the channels and finding teams.
  2. Well that was some great leadership through the TF Voo. So happy we got it done.

    I wish I could have recorded that Hami mission. That went off perfectly.

    And you are tired of this already??? What about my corruptor!!! I guess back to trying the MBSF next time. I will PM you my schedule.

    Yeah, I am burned out some on this TF now. And playing an emp. Why, oh, why did I put my master badges on that toon

    And thanks to the excellent team. You all worked greatly together. And grats to Spider on his 600th badge.

If you where to pay attention, you may find your number question irrelevant, kinda of not seeing the forest for the trees situation.
    Last night in CAD. 2 others were there. Excuse me for not taking screenshots. Didn't know I would need them.
  4. Thanks Voo for setting up. Should be on still.

The people here on the forums merely repeated what they said.

    It's the same thing they said about power customization, side switching, emailing inf/loot, weapon customization, power proliferation, fixing PvP, Base love.

    Off the top of my head I can only think of three things they devs ever flat out told us would never happen.

    1. Full Respecs
    2. Allowing us to pull more than 10 enhancements off a build during a respec.
    3. Making Stamina inherent.
    100% agree with this ^

    What is "many"? 100, 1000, 10000? I see players in AE so not getting this hardly used anymore hyperbole.

    The problem I see with AE is that it fails to produce or have a good reward system.
    So a system that gives XP, tickets, or you can run with standard rewards fails to produce? This has nothing to do with poorly written arcs or that AE is undergoing changes still?

    You don't need to increase the number of tickets. If you max out, just go a few feet up the stairs and roll the tickets. You don't even have to leave the building.

    If you add in purples, people would just farm tickets like they do for other things and IGNORE THE PLAYER WRITTEN CONTENT, which is NOT what AE is about.

    Heh, how it really went was that I had the brute targetted since I assumed he was taking the alpha. Then you rushed first and got hit. I was so stunned for a moment that you were taking damage (ever) and forgot what I was doing LOL!

    And back to Hami, I wish I could have video recorded those mitos going down. It was perfect. Maybe, buy even more EoE's just in case. And also agree on a spot to get out of LoS.
  8. Thanks all that showed up. We had a death at Hami yet again. Otherwise, a good team. And without the bizarre O portal dropping Flux, we could have finished.

    In the future, I will try to remember to spell out to get out the LoS of Hami if you have his aggro. Also, if you are a SSer, my fly speed can't keep up.
  9. Okay, looks great for tonight. Cyall then!

    Hey, I made a rhyme!
  11. Just tossing my 2 inf too and others have said much the same in different ways.

    Krogoth gives a great example. It is not a contradiction that those buffs would be nerfed greatly because those same buffs make others much greater. Allowing those toons to buff themselves and others would make the game so ridiculously easy, it will get boring real fast. (Emps never worrying about status effects since they CM themselves? Kins SBing themselves? Therms/Colds with shields? Etc.)

    The other thing you don't seem to be considering are ATs that share those powers - controllers, MM's. All those players would be screaming on the forums for the same treatment if corrs/defs get self buffs.
    For example, I have a thugs/PD MM. How great it would be for me to buff myself with Enforced Morale and Paingiver. This toon already solo's AVs and can run at max diff against a number of types of mobs.

    Also, another set of players would be crying foul - debuffers. What do they get? You would buff things like emp or FF with self buffs, but what about my D3 def?
  12. I play for Voo. He's my hero!


    Or just because this game is great at letting me relax and take my frustrations out in all kinds of ways!

    Yeah, one of those is true.
  13. Trying again to form a team and attempt the MLGTF badge on Friday 25 Jun at 930PM EST.

    My global name is the same as my forum handle. I use global channels Victory Forum, Victory Badges, Victory Badges 2009 (join them please!).

    Okay, we got in order of posting:
    1. Me (Beej / emp def)
    2. Jade Claw (scrapper)
    3. Voo (lolscrapper)
    4. MG (in pink!)
    5. SHamster (Still not happy with dice rolling )
    6. Talnar (you're up!)
    7. Flux (debuffer or blaster depending on SHamster's dice)
    8. Incarnadine (brute)

    Great! Full team. Will see how we are on debuffing or ranged damage (glares at Hamster). If any more want to be alts, please post!
    Astrolynx - Sorry. Hopefully another run soon with my corr!

    I plan to start forming at LG at 920PM and start at 930PM - if an alt is ready at 930PM and you are not there, I will take the alt and start. I am not restarting if some one shows up after 930PM.

    Please grab some EoE's if possible.

    AVOID PYLONS between missions.

    General plan is the following:
    Miss 1 - Work our way to Penny, but clear the room only and don't free her until we are ready. Once we have her, get moving out. For the AV, wait for the team to be together before rushing or someone will die about a half second later from his psi AOE.

    Miss 2 - So far, IME, these have been straightforward defeating the mobs if we stick close and go at the same time.

    Miss 3 - We will discuss how to proceed then. No issues except the AV and his mega AOEs to avoid.

    Miss 4 - I could use some help calling out targets. Pulling Rikti and then to Mitos/Pylons followed by Hami. This is where we have been failing - people have been running in and drawing Hami fire. Do not go until we clear the mitos.

    Miss 5 - If possible, stealth down if people want to avoid fighting, otherwise, we will fight our way down. Pull the AVs, and then AS A TEAM, take out the generators.

    I wasn't quite clear on the suggestion too, so wasn't sure how to reply. Now that I read it again and your reply, I am still concerned on damage being balanced by other things like the secondary effects. Fire already does more damage with DoT. Energy has KB effects. If you raise the cap, does KB go down or the DoT?
    Also, blasters are able to choose 2 attacks via primary and secondary that could be different or the same in some cases. But what about a stalker or scrapper who only gets one set to work with? (I am ignoring APP/PPP since those can be changed or not taken at all).
    Another AT would be MM's. Can I specialize in bots or mercs? I am already soloing AVs with my MM's, so raising my cap would just make me clear missions faster.

    Again, I admit I could maybe be completely misunderstanding your suggestion.
  15. Just two points for me.

    First, Castle already indicated run speed doesn't have much room to go faster.

    I would be concerned about the damage cap part with no way to balance out. For blasters, what is more: energy or fire? AR or archery? Does my /dark def do more than my /ice def or my /psi def? Where do secondary effects come into play?
  16. Yes, I should have clarified. The 2 deaths were by the same person...

    Anyhow, trying to make it tomorrow if it can get organized! Thanks Voo.
  17. In before Dechs or Aett posts....ARGGGGGHHHH!!!!!

    EDIT - DOH! Forgot about the black hole IOs. Will put in sig so I don't forget.
  18. I love that city. BK (before kids) I use to go skiing up in Whistler. The drive along the ocean with mountains on one side is incredible.

    Oh well, welcome back GP.
  19. Well, overall a solid run. Unfortunately we had a death at hami (and a second one later with someone trying to stealth down to the AV in the last miss, but it didn't matter by then).

    Anyhow, thank you all for showing up. I want to plan another, most likely same time next Friday. I was really amazed on how well the team worked. Sorry it didn't work out this time around.
  20. Forming up in 30 min. Won't be checking the forums again.

    Thess, have fun this evening!
  21. Okay, movies aside. Ready for this evening.

    Again, please be a little early and we are starting at 930PM EST. If the alt(s) are there ready to go, I am filling and clicking start.

    BROKEN RECORD time - Stay close and this isn't a speed run.
  22. I see players playing what they want because it is fun.

    This is giving me flashbacks to corr vs. def in GR.
