Gratz to the winners of this event:

@BlitzAuggen was the 1st to last 5 minutes under the globe he took home 80million influence

@Evil Irishman was the 1st to kill me in zone, he won three SHOEs. I think they were a Nuc, a Cyto and a Lyso.

@Zamuel was the 1st to launch a rocket he won 80million Infamy and a crafted PvP IO (it was a Hold set one, I forget which).

Signing up for Numina, Synapse and Sister.

Happy Birthday man!

Des is a huge fan of Billy Dee Williams so he only drinks Colt 45. "It works every time".

Ive seen a few really amazing Khelds. Jimmy Vine's WS, Toril's WS, and SGS's PB come to mind.

I think for the most part what you are running into isnt the player being a Kheld its the player being in AE.

tempting.

This might have been one of the most fun nights so for me on isolaters. I can honestly say Toril didn't snipe Flux on purpose or with malice of thought. Team bloody coup (or team cheater as MG called it) was a fun bunch of people to play with.

Not sure how to break this to you MG, but Chumly and I did level in the 2nd to last mission we ran. He beat me by a few mobs.

Lindow. (I'd make a sad face but I don't know how).

aaaaand about pvp, just remember Checkers is PvP too.

Xp is becoming way to easy to get, I am not sure why "the powers that be" are moving the game in this direction. I can only guess that the feedback they are getting from the masses is that leveling is too slow (is that even possible now with rest xp, lowered xp requirements for levels, xp bonuses for large teams).

You can't really grief a zone. Teaming is to be expected, I haven't really decided but I may give prizes for: 1st to launch a rocket, 1st to kill me, 1st to last 10 minutes on top of the globe. 2nd to kill me, 3rd to kill me... you get the idea.

Not sure as of yet what the prizes will be Im thinking of maybe passing out Hami-Os.

More details to follow.

Super Sidekicking = awesome for TFs/SFs. Now when we run them we wont have to deal with people trying to get in on the lowest possible level and then saying "If I run into problems I will sk up ok?" Now if only there was a way to make people slot up their charcters, I don't mean IO'd or Purpled out but just SOs or heck even DOs, just dont run characters with blanks.

Des, Sign me up for the Imperious and the Lady Grey. I hope that is a typo as far as the LGSF merits, or did those darn nasty powergamers get it nerfed?

I was feeling Meh about this double xp weekend. I didn't play much Friday or Sunday. Most of Saturday was spent running TFs rather then trying to pile up massive amounts of xp or influence.

As far as XP I think my Rad corr got from level 22 to 47 (Thanks FMP!), and my new stalker "Poke Poke" is lvl 39 up from level 21.

I think the most fun thing I did this weekend was participate in a PvP event hosted by the Villain group "SM" that was a huge blast and I really want to thank them for hosting that and RIBO for inviting me to participate.

I did manage to start some trouble on a few global channels and I guess I owe DC an apology. I didn't particularly care for the way you "asked" me to change toons, but still I shouldn't have harassed you on VB, so I am sorry DC. There was one other incident but I am just going to chalk that up to someone having issues in RL or something.

All and all, glad its over now can we get back to running TFs and SFs?!I was feeling Meh about this double xp weekend.

I hate you SGS, you know my badger is a emp.

Happy Birthday WE. Hope its a good one, and just remember if you are going to play on Virtue always wear protection and take a shower before you come back to Victory.

Whips?

bah, friends who needs friends, just pad up and dual box the sf.

SGS I was thinking of doing the exact same thing for my badger. Killing Mary 10times gives alot of influence and with a team of debuffs/buffs it goes really fast. I may put together a Katie team during DoubleXP but honestly, I'm just not feeling it this time around. I'm out of slots on Victory and I have 3 toons who can still get xp, but those are for "team night" types of groups.

This is one of the reasons that zone pvp gets a bad rep. Typically things are so lopesided that it just isn't fun for anyone on the smaller side. As you stated, I always try to switch to whichever side seems to be in need of assistance, I usually end up getting tp'd numerous times to the hospital but still its fun trying to turn the tide.

Glad to see you testing the waters Voo. Yeah set bonuses take a beating in PvP zones and Arena. Most pvp spec'd toons are built for massive recharge (think perma dom, or perma Dull pain) so when they enter a zone and they suddenly do not have these powers perma it does *feel* very different to them.

Just monitor your stats and you will see the difference. I can tell you the things that I noticed right away was the travel supression from using insp, thats just hard to get used too.

As far as being mez'd there is no mez "def" now only resist so you will always be mez'd, but you can shorten the time you are affected by the mez.

Again glad to see you trying (even if it was just one time) pvp, and maybe we can talk you into coming to a Monday Night Fight Night.

I knew I had seen information about this somewhere:

What they aren't saying is that some characters are also being awarded "booster" packs that they did not purchase:
GvE, Wedding, Cyborg, Mac...etc.

I think there was a post saying that if you do get a bugged character (its not global, just character specific) do not use the powers or it could compromise your character when they fix it.

Join an established VG. Talk in Coalition, most recruiting for SFs does not occur on VB/VB09/VF for whatever reason.
