Pfft, the 24th? You do know those pansies over on Union are holding one a night at the moment?

(No, I'm not volunteering to run one.)

Really? My mistake, then. Must've misread something somewhere.

Uh, Femme Fatales?

Best of luck to the OP, SGs are a pain to run at the best of times, I find.

Wow, congrats!

Not only have I recieved one, but I would be delighted to trade it for tohit/def debuff/end red SHOE.

Grats!

The Robo Surgeries were broken by I8, so I'm kind of surprised by Stryker's reply.

Congrats!

Full marks to Archy and the organisers, a smaller turnout made for a bigger challenge, but they still did a great job!

THere has been numerous disconnection bugs with base items. Try moving them a little with base editor. (not to another room or anything, just a few inches).

Tried that, but it made no difference :/

I've just discovered that the Robo Surgeries that we added to our medical room aren't connected to their respective reclaimators any more. They worked fine before I8, so I'm assuming I8 has broken them - has anyone else found this?

Ah, that's a shame - here's hoping you come back soon.

Not that I want to create extra work for anyone (but I'm going to suggest this anyway), but how would the list's maintainers feel about adding Defiant's level 50 villains to this list? Someone else was keeping a separate list of these on the villain board, but it doesn't seem to have been updated since August 6th, yet people are still posting to the thread. It shouldn't be too much additional work (hopefully), as there aren't as many high level villains compared to heroes.

At any rate, I'd like to add my thanks to everyone else's for keeping this going.

(Oh, and Surya, level 50 peacebringer).

I suspect that, if this really is true, there's a bit more to it then we know. I can't see any advantage to RPing in a Siren's where you can't PvP, to RPing in a non-PvP zone, so I think I'll wait and see before drawing conclusions.

They're autohit in PvE. You need acc for PvP. If you don't intend to PvP, you don't need to slot them for acc.

Sundays are really our preferred day but since not many of the leaders actually would be able to attend this Sunday we decided on Monday....sorry.

Ah well, couldn't hurt to ask. Mondays and Thursdays really are the worst days for me :-/.

We're looking at having another bash next monday, any takers?

[/ QUOTE ]

Any chance of moving back to Sunday?

It's a standard part of most Canadian competitions; some sort of law forces them to add it in. I think it's to make sure the competition is a test of skill and not classed as gambling, or something like that.

While I got it last week (thanks to you guys), if I'm on I'd be happy to sit in the team for a bit and help spawn if you're a few short.

Also: seeing as people keep forgetting, someone post a big reminder here on Wednesday morning.

As I recall, the raids got a massive boost in attendance when they moved to Sundays, and I'd be wary of moving them for no good reason. Certainly, I don't think I could make a non-Sunday raid.

Both good questions.

I'm pondering my Necro/Dark MM's build (looking forward here, she's currently 11th level), and I'm wondering, do I need Stamina to:
a) solo effectively at the higher levels

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, you can, but it can get quite tough at times, what with Shadowfall, Darkest Night and your epic armour at 40+. I had all that, and Assault and Tactics, and boss/EB fights could be a real struggle. While you'll need to have a ready supply of blue insps and to carefully manage your toggles, it is doable.

b) contribute usefully to a team when facing particularly powerful opponents?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeessss...ish. The problem comes when you're debuffing/holding/spamming heals when suddenly the AV kills all your pets with an ill-timed AoE. Resummoning and buffing them all while still running Darkest Night et al is nigh on impossible without some sort of end buff or having an all blue insp tray.

Is this a regular team? Will one of your team mates have an end buff (eventually)? You should be able to get away with it.

If this is a PuG, your initial problem will be summoning and buffing as you get in the mish. It takes a while (you'll probably need to rest once), and the average PuG member wont want to wait, and will inevitable charge right in. Same when you have to resummon mid mish.

Basically, how much you can contribute will depend on how much the team will let you contribute, if you see what I mean. If they don't want to wait...

Yepyep.

Power Boost gives a 100% boost to the following:-

Disorient Duration
Sleep Duration
Confuse Duration
Fear Duration
Immobilize Duration
Hold Duration
Knockback (KnockUp) distance
Repel strength
Run speed
Fly speed
Defence Buffs
Heal
To-hit Buffs
Endurance Drain

You should ignore all that 'secondary effect' nonsense - it's just a(nother) badly written power description. If you have a power that can do any of the above, in any way, Power Boost will boost it.

Sounds good to me.

Can't do Mondays or Thursdays (SG stuff), but can do other days/evenings.
