Meet you all in the Chantry! Good luck hunting banners in the meanwhile! -
Just a reminder, this is the weekend of storms...
Good luck to the Saturday team, and again many thanks to you all for running along this Shardtober! -
Hola and Avast! Just in case there's a few survivors on this server from our meager attempt to form a Pirate-themed SG a few years back, the Bloody Bay Buccaneers SG members are showing up to knock on doors and steal all costume salvage! Or get rocks. Whichever comes first. So if anyone's still got a pirate on the SG, now's a good time to rejoin the festivities with PIRATES! Moar RUM!
See ye in the zones! -
Well the event is up.
I figure on being Pinnacle for this week, mostly. Except for the Tanker event tonight on Protector...
My primary on Pinnacle is LaJeanne Gaspar, 29 PIRATE! for the Bloody Bay Bucs SG we tried forming on that server... has it been 3 years or 2 years ago we did that? Anyhoo. If anyone else here has a PIRATE with the Pinnacle SG, now's the time to dust em off! -

Team Sexy:
1)@ Cherry-2000
2)@ War Admiral
3)@ Fanged Knight
4)@ Jonnie Neutron
5)@ Prvt Slacker
6)@ Suicidal Kitty - WOO HOO KITTY !
7)@Nicebuffs (havnt confirmend with him, but pretty sure)
8)@ ResplendentsMS (again, not confirmed, but i think maybe.. and, i think i butcherd her global, terribly sorry )
I'll send them a tell to confirm
As for starting time.. There are 3 of us on this team, that are also on a static team. I'll see if we can duck out a bit earlier than nomal this week. Sooo, start time TBA.
I will most likely be on a 3 day birthday binge, so, bring wakies... for me.
And good luck on the Saturday running of the storms! -
Where: Chantry, the contact is Faathim himself inside the Chantry (only the team leader needs to be inside the Chantry, which is tricky to enter. Teams can wait outside, preferably on the eastern edge of the map as the first few door missions seem to be over there).
Levels required: Levels 45 - 50. Auto SK'ed to whomever is team captain at the moment (would help to get a good number of 50s to provide backup in case team captain DC's).
Team needed: Full count of 8 to even start. BIG AV at end, one of the hardest, so try to keep the team together to the dark end.
Villain sets: Rularuu, Circle of Thorns, Rikti, Malta and Artemis, Praetorians
Length: Tons of door missions! HUNDREDS! YOU'LL NEVER FIN... cough. It's about 18 door missions long.
For the Saturday 10/24 TF, please let me have a volunteer for team leader. By this point there's been a regular team forming this group, around Cherry 2000. Hope that can continue. Danke.

NOTE: Additional teams are always welcome to form in case either team fills up! Again, it just helps to get a sign-up sheet going to ensure getting enough interested players together.
Happy Hallows Eve to ye! -
Of the four known Shard Realm, the Storm Palace presides over a vast and dark sunless sky... There is madness in these Shadows. A dark threat, a Storm of unspeakable Evil threatening to break free into the Shard Realms and into our own world...
Welcome to Shard TF Number 4, the FINAL BATTLE! Our contact Faathim the Kind invites you to his humble Chantry abode to join the festivities as the zombies explode across the city. So we'll try to make this quick so you can get back to getting Rocks.
The rules:
1) Full 8-player team is needed to start. And given the threat faced on the final mission, it helps to keep that full team together to the bitter end. And the minimum level is 45, with the cap at 50 (good thing for Auto SK, we no longer have to worry about balancing the SKs to Mentors).
2) Team balance is a must: Tankers to control God aggro; Defenders and Controllers with debuffs to weaken God buffage; Blasters and Scrappers to inflict the damage needed to drop God into the bright void. Khleds can join in as well.
The AV at the end is one of the toughest to face in-game: the teams seriously need at least one Tanker to maintain aggro and at least one Defender/Controller with serious Debuffing to assist in weakening Lanaruu.
3) Travel powers used to require at least one teammate with Fly/Teleport + Recall Friend. With temp Jetpacks now sold in all shard realms, this is optional (but still helpful). Also, it helps to have Ouroborous ports available for the missions that head back into the city proper. There's at least one mission I remember that involves getting to a Board Train menu option...
4) The length of this TF isn't too long, on a well-prepared team with fast movers it can be done under 3 hours. On a Witty-led team, well I never move that all fast (I savor the TFs where I can) so expect it to be under 3.5 hours.
5) Given that Hero Con is taking place this same weekend, I would love it if somehow we can get one or more players attending the Con to get on the game and demonstrate the True Meaning of Shardtober to all (and the Meaning is... Earning Inf, XP, Prestige, and the fond hope of scoring a Purple Recipe drop!!! YES!)
To ensure we get the teams up and going ASAP each day, this means getting sign-up sheets. Two days this weekend, obviously: one run for those who can play Saturday, one run for Sunday. I will like to host the Sunday (10/25) afternoon run, and I would like to have someone volunteer to host the Saturday (10/24) again starting at your best available time. As this is a relatively short TF, start time can be later in the day - late afternoon, early evening, well into evening itself. NOTE: Please keep track of Eastern (EST), Central, Mountain and Pacific (PST) time zones! Luckily, this time the Bucs' home game is in London and I'm not planning on tuning in to what will be a huge debacle... :/
The TF itself starts in the Chantry (the first 4-5 missions are there), so please log in there for the team gatherings.
One more thing: there's sometimes been a buggy door halfway through the TF. I know, it's not something to advert, but do be aware that the TF can get hit with a delay at some point. Patience, above all, is a Virtue... ("C'mon, Posi! ANSWER THE PHONE!!!")
Sign-ups begin on the next thread post below. Let's finish up what has been a great Shardtober this year! -
Ohnoes! I lost track of ppl's names who ran two weeks ago on the Sara Moore TF. Please mention thyself here on the thread and report if you can see yourself in any of the photos...
Here's Happy Fun Ball. Do Not Taunt... yeah yeah...
Some Nems:
Action poses!

I Will Show You How to Keel a God...

Wouldn't it be great if the game devs have a Hero Con over here in Florida!
Wouldn't it be great if there were PIRATE MASTERMINDS.
Wouldn't it be great if bases had skylights?
Wouldn't it be great if there was a map zone where we could add hedgerows, castle doors, floating keys and a yellow sword, and three colored dragons (yellow green and red) so we could build our own Adventure MA? Or would Atari sue? -
Quote:Actually CoT is pretty easy compared to Rularuu.um, it was cot, wasnt going to be easy.
oh
and you had TP PROMPT on. bawkbawk.
/e chickendance
Still and all, glad you enjoyed the TF!
Sunday's Shard run started slightly... um... what 's' word can I use at this point?... late as I endured a heartbreaking game at the RayJay. But we survived, battled, teleported, jetpacked and footstomped our way to victory against the forces of evil (now if we can do that to Panthers player No. 21... grrrrrrrrr).
Many thanks from Psychotro Paul to:
Exodus Force
Delerious
Dr. Mathusian
Ready Aim Bubbles
Amdis
Bullet McGraw
Feride Edain
for rescuing Faathim! Photos had been taken, will be edited and posted as soon as I pass my Software Essentials midterm...
BTW, the photos for the Sara Moore TF are completed, I just need to find the time to post them... -
Quote:I'd love to know how the Saturday Shardtober run went. Please let meh know.Looks like we got a full team now for Sunday.
WOOT.
'Kay krewe. Just please remember start time is a little after 5 pm Eastern... that means 4 pm Central, 3 pm Mountain, 2 pm Pacific... and you're outside the U.S. / Canada / Mexico time zones, please let me know so I can research which time zone you're in and then rant about making sure you show at that time! I'm NORMALLY a tad anal retentive about start times, but this time it's different...
As for Sunday's - today's - Shard run... I mentioned earlier I've got a Bucs game to attend with mah brother from 1 pm - roughly 4 pm. It's gonna be a rough race home: traffic for one thing, and there's a possibility of it going into overtime :/ So I'm TRYING to make it home by 5 pm EST. If I don't clock in by 5:30 pm, krewe, you have my permissions to find a replacement for me and... sniff... run... ohgod... run a Shardtober without me.
Will try to see ye this afternoon at 5 pm. PLEASE, BUCS, BE 40-0 BY THE START OF THE 4th QUARTER!
>:-) -
I am expecting that soon, perhaps next week, the Game Devs will bring the Trick or Treat event back to have us 1) get rocks, 2) struggle through 145 costume drops for the ghost pirate outfit, 3) spawn evil pumpkins that don't count toward a badge whenever the door spawns a Trick.
Deal is, while all my Champion characters have used costume salvage (from SG storage bins) to gain their extra costume slots, various alts I'm running on other servers (hello, Tanker Tour) haven't gotten them. Which means that once the Halloween event comes on, I may end up running in Pinnacle, Justice, or Liberty servers. You know, gotta take care of them too... -
The recent DoubleXP weekend saw me complete the second of my three VEAT builds: Gecarcinus almost a year ago now... and now Merciless Sapphire, my bringer of... well not exactly doom...
Interesting to realize that the Mids' Builder exporter doesn't calibrate for the revamped forums system... unless I chose the wrong formatting... how do I feex this?

Just got off the phone with my brother in Tampa...
He's got extra ticket to the Bucs game vs. Carolina.
I know the team sucks this year... but it's my bro, he's got a game ticket...
And the game is at 1 pm and usually won't get done until around 4 pm (barring overtime) and it's at least an hour's drive back home to the computer.
So all that ranting I just did previous post about being on time?!
>.>
<.<
Can I suggest a new time start of 5 pm Eastern 4 Central 3 Mountain 2 Pacific?

With lots and lots of Alts leveling.
Merciless Sapphire (47 Widow ---> 50 Widow)
Psychotro Paul (42 Blaster ---> 48 Blaster)
Boca de Infernia (18 Corruptor ---> 26 Corruptor)
Cut to the Quick (37 Scrapper ---> 37 Scrapper). Yeah. Just couldn't find the time. -
Where: Chantry, near the Cascades wormhole (the FBZ shortcut portal drops off at the same spot).
Levels required: Levels 44 - 50. Auto SK'ed to whomever is team captain at the moment (would help to get a good number of 50s to provide backup in case team captain DC's).
Team needed: Full count of 8 to even start. No AV at end, but large mobs ensue.
Villain sets: Circle of Thorns, Rularuu
Length: 16 Missions (Nearly half of what you do are Delivery/Click Monument missions: Stealthing is risky as Rularuu can spy Stealthers)
For the Saturday 10/17 TF, please let me have a volunteer for team leader. I'd suggest a start time between 2 pm EST to 4 pm EST. Try to configure to people's dinner plans. Danke.

A Shard Realm, vast and open as the sky itself, bastions floating great distances to where many cannot be seen upon the horizon... in the middle of this realm floats The Chantry, the stronghold of Faathim the Kind, the one being in the Shard Realm that aids the heroes of Paragon City in their darkest hours... Vast powers at his command... and there are those who threaten to steal and consume those powers for their own corrupt purposes...
Welcome to Shard TF Number 3! Our contact Justin Augustine is right at the Cascades wormhole in the Chantry... just take the portal shortcut at FBZ to get there.
The rules:
1) Full 8-player team is needed to start. And given the threat faced on the final mission, it helps to keep that full team together to the bitter end. And the minimum level is 44, with the cap at 50 (good thing for Auto SK, we no longer have to worry about balancing the SKs to Mentors).
2) Team balance is a must: Tankers to control God aggro; Defenders and Controllers with debuffs to weaken God buffage; Blasters and Scrappers to inflict the damage needed to drop God into the bright void. Khleds can join in as well.
There's no AV at the end to confront, but there are still massive mobs of Rularuu and so aggro control must be made.
3) Travel powers used to require at least one teammate with Fly/Teleport + Recall Friend. With temp Jetpacks now sold in all shard realms, this is optional (but still helpful). Also, it helps to have Ouroborous ports available for the missions that head back into the city proper.
4) The length of this TF isn't too long, on a well-prepared team with fast movers it can be done under 2 hours. On a Witty-led team, well I never move that all fast (I savor the TFs where I can) so expect it to be under 2.5 hours.
To ensure we get the teams up and going ASAP each day, this means getting sign-up sheets. Two days this weekend, obviously: one run for those who can play Saturday, one run for Sunday. I will like to host the Sunday (10/18) afternoon run, and I would like to have someone volunteer to host the Saturday (10/17) again starting at your best available time. As this is a relatively short TF, start time can be later in the day - late afternoon, early evening, well into evening itself. NOTE: Please keep track of Eastern (EST), Central, Mountain and Pacific (PST) time zones! And that the TF starting on Saturday can have a different time than the Sunday one. I got some confused people this past week with the Sara Moore TFs.
Sign-ups begin on the next thread post below. Let's keep running a great Shardtober this year! -
Witty death count: a staggering 7 times. With only two team wipes! A miracle.
Many thanks to those who survived with Witty (on Psychotro Paul, now dinged 45):
Amdis (Talon Arsenal)
Force (Exodus Force)
Jak O'Lantern (Gothic Gremlin)
Artorios Rex (yup)
Dr. Malthusian (Nyx)
we had to call in two replacements, and I forgot the globals...
Graviton Star
Arcesso Menes
Photos were taken, and it will take some time to get them up (very busy week, midterm exams)! But keep an eye out on this thread! -
Quote:I don't have Aion. Simply because I'm on a very tight budget now.We're nearing about 20 people in the "champion server" legions in Aion. And I'm sure theres many others from Champ not in the legion playing Aion.
Then there is CO which people have been playing....
And School has started up again for many people.
All that takes away from CoH time.
But then I'm on CoH nearly every day. My only indulgence gaming-wise anymore... -
