I suspect that is the icon for the vet power that reveals the entire map, if you are referring to tray #4.

If it is the one in tray 1......dunno.

ya, the power in tray #1

And to the smarta$$ who left me negative feedback about me letting everyone know the MoLGTF badge is active. You left a comment of:

"how many people had to help so you could cheese this?"

To answer this question since you can hide behind a wall and not be known, apparently 7 other peoplke had to join me so I could cheese it. Whatever the hell that means.

Well the MoLGTF will just give me something else to look forward to when I get home. I've been working as a contractor on a Navy ship for most of the last six months and can only log in to play when I get a few hours of port time here or there. Frankly I'm amazed I'm still as far along badge-wise as I am based on that.

As for Beef_Cake having "help so [he] could cheese this" is a pretty laughable comment all things considered. Beefy's been this game's "poster boy" for badging for years so to think he wouldn't have every badge possible ASAP is pretty sad to say the least. Frankly I would've been more surprised to hear that Beefy DIDN'T have a new badge like this already.

While I don't like the fact that the badge was added to the game, I am sort of (ie not very) glad that it is now known that the badge actually exists.

However, I don't think that whoever neg-repped you took a glance at your picture. It clearly shows a full team...

Maybe they are just jealous that they weren't able to do it first.


The first step in being sane is to admit that you are insane.

Gotta love Anonymous(tm). I'll pass around some rep to make you feel better for when I get the badge this week. (Maybe.)

People are really sensitive with the rep button, however it does not really change anything. It's just a few icons under your profile.

Reputation within the actual game and community matter more really.

Don't worry about it Beef!, +Rep.

And another MoLGTF successfully completed.
Thanks to an awesome team!

We had 1 Tank, 3 Scrapper, 2 Defender and 2 Controller (Defender/Controller were 1 Storm, 1 Kin, 1 Forcefields and 1 Rad).

We needed 3.5 hours, being careful and skipping nothing (no failed mission ).

The hard part was the weakened Hamidon, of course. We didn't have enough mez to hold him. Instead we did it (more or less) the way macskull described in one of the earlier posts of this thread. We took out the Pylons, pulled the Rikti into Hamidon and cleared yellow and blue Mitos. Then we regrouped and attacked and defeated Hamidon (the tanker taunted at range). After we beat Hamidon we fell back again to heal up. Then we started fighting the green Mitos. The first green Mito was close to the ground and was quickly defeated. The other green Mitos were all high in the air and with some people on the team who had other travel powers than Flight we couldn't concentrate enough DPS. To solve this one of our team members left the Abyss and changed into a secondary build to get Group Fly while another acquired some red inspirations. With Group Fly and some red pills we were able to get another green Mito down. The next after this was problematic again. We learned, that it was a good idea to fall back to heal and buff up (SB and AM) after every green Mito defeated. With every defeated Mito it became easier and the last three were defeated in a row .. the last two even with only 7 members on the team (I DCed ). EoEs were used. I think everyone had at least 4 EoEs before we attacked Mitos and Hamidon. Personally I used only 1 but I don't know how many were used by the others. However, I would recommend them if you are going to try a MoLGTF run.

The rest of the TF was easy again (especially when compared to the green Mitos ).
We beat the AVs and took down the generators.
Badge awared.
Yay us.

I was serious when I posted in one of these threads earlier.. about getting my Wonder Woman panties on for the Master of Lady Grey. I even made the guys get a pair!

- 1 tank, battle axe/invuln
- 2 defenders, stormy & rad
- 2 controllers, kin & earth/bubbler
- 3 scrappers, all SR (broadsword, MA, and spines)





Best part: There was no agonizing draft pick. We just grabbed who was on at the moment and shared ideas as we went. Myriad is someone you always want on your team.

Worst part: The grind on the greens. Usually, most Master runs are plagued with nerves, those split second screamers when someone drops to one hitpoint. Not so much on this one.. we cautiously cleared damn near everything. This Master's biggest challenge was patience.

Unexpected: So. .. we knew going in that the green mitos, in their current condition, would be a *****. The bubbler was our VIP, she left zone to respec into group flight (note: this won't work on co-faction teams, as it would have auto -booted them) but... interesting side-note: clicking to leave the mission did not work, she had to Ouros portal out of the mission just to exit. Not sure if that is a bug or intentional?

And yes, we did pinch a few extra plus size inspirations for the last mission from bases but not many. They really were not needed. The EOE's on Hami were - I'm a scaredy cat.

Good luck to you all.

That's a bit much. While I'm fine with a Task Force requiring one archtype or another, and I have no problems with the Lady Grey Hamidon requiring a Controller or a Dominator Quote.....

I do have issues of the perfect team, it is already hard enough to get a team together to play anything anymore. Most SF take us almost 45 minutes to an hour to get formed... switching toons accordingly and then praying the peeps playing know what they are doing.. or can listen to directions. Over the past year or so I have been forced to play alone.. and like it mind you. But forced to play alone from lack of peeps on my server. Then the wonderful BMT redside channel was born and players united. And I love the teaming.. but once again I do not like having to be forced to team to complete a task and NOW I am being forced to find the perfect team to finish a task... yeah yeah.. I am waiting for the FORCED comments to come back. I want to complete everything in the game... why make it so friggen hard to achieve?

Well as of May 18th 2010 the Lady G Sf was not beatable with our team. I wont even say who was on team, because it irritates me on the micro managing of teams to get the so called perfect team to get a mission done. This so called ALT friendly game.. just forces hard players to HAVE to go make another toon, chase accolades and defeats down to get all the goodies of demonic and so on so they can have the alt toon for a SF/TF. In the last month a friend had to make a Dominator/sleeper so he could, we could enjoy Lord Recluse SF. I think he also made a MM recently to be able to enjoy Barracudas SF and not having to call and call and wait and wait for the perfect team. But aside all that... Lady Grey if fixed, should be avoided less have the perfect hold team. We played the Hami part for over an hour, trying different ways green mitos first... changing to next mito... working Hami then mitos to no avail. We only kept fighting and changing waiting for the many petitions that were sent to be answered. And after an hour or more no help came.

And another topic, do these peeps that come to assist even PLAY the game? I had assistance for a glitched Silos SF in Oros.. that the helper person.. Moved the Jade Spider to my area.. and said.. kill this BIG thing, Like I was some idiot and couldnt see it... laughing I said.. it is a friendly, then he proceeded to move Ghost Widow for the kill and .. I was like you have got to be kidding me...after several chats and loads of misunderstandings.. the mission was advanced.

Well thats my ramblings for the day... its just my opinion... dont kill the messanger

Hey look, it's me

I had fun on the TF. Granted there were times during the Hami Raid that I was utterly disgusted and frustrated, but other than that it was fine. Great company too

tl;dr

the mitos are still way overpowered, and IMO they actually made LGTF worse with this "fix"


just attempted a MO run and we were doing flawless until the green mitos in the hami mish. our team was:

  • ninja/dark mm (myself)
  • mind/elec perma dom
  • cold/ice defender
  • emp/psi defender
  • elec/shield scrapper
  • shield/elec tank
  • fire/devices blaster
  • rad blaster (didnt see what secondary)
i know several of the poeple had hold and my pets had holds aside from the perma dom, and if the mitos did get mez reduction to 10 pts, and the perma dom can fire the single target hold for 6 mag hold every 4 sec, i dont know how in the world the mito kept up the increased regen cause within 8 sec, the perma dom would have applied 12 mag hold, and the combined mag hold from rest of team was about another 6 pts which should have dropped their regen

those green mitos are so frustrating, because before when they were perma holding themselves, they were still a little annoying to most teams, and i believe that they were meant to have -hold to allow higher chance of success, because like many poeple, i did enjoy the LGTF, in fact the hami mish was one of my favorite mishs in the tf, now that the mitos are all ****** up, its not dropped from my favorite to one of the most annoying/hated mishs of mine (i still enjoy it, but just because i can see and fight hami outside of a normal raid, definitly nowhere near what i used to)

Attempted a (Mo)Lady Grey last night. I got several good players that I've teamed with before and we began our attempt.
1 tank, 1 scrapper, 2 blasters, 2 defenders and 2 trollers. Sadly one of the trollers had to leave due to unforseen buisness. This can happen *shrug*
However we had as much chance against the mitos (green mitos and Hamidon left) as a snowball has a certain hot place.
Now many of the characters where favoured characters by the players so they where buildt well and we could not out damage the green nor Hamidon's regen.

So looking eagerly for the test build to be launched on Live server. If not we will need pure out damage team or 3-4 trollers/dom... and making that a requirment cannot be true?

Freedom's been rolling nicely with these Master runs. About 4-5 successful team runs last night from what I hear. Of course, my team failed. Still, general consensus amongst the teams I knew about had everyone levelheaded and chill for the run. No hot tempers, if you failed, then it's just practice (and I practiced a lot last night...), no excluding players based on AT (although build preferences can be offered by the player), etc. Kotchie, Morna and a few others I know of got it last night. Hooray, Freedom.

My experience with the run: Our team had:

1 Peacebringer
1 Warshade
1 scrapper
1 tanker
3 controllers
1 corruptor

We'd run a flawless Master run until the Hamidon, and got all the other mitos down cleanly and carefully. By the time we hit the greens, however, it stalled. We simply could NOT build enough of a MAG hold to overcome the green's regen. We'd get ragged pulses of damage, but after a second all that work would be healed over.

More optimized teams would have a better shot at this. I think if we had one more raw damager or a perma-dom for hold stacking, it would have kept us over that mag limit long enough to bring them down. Props to @Transcendent One for organizing that PUG run and giving me a seat just as I logged in.
