Are there any events scheduled for the 10th (Saturday)?

It does, of course, depend entirely on if I get my tanker Greystone to 39. At that point I'd love to run an all-tanker eden trial (bwhahahaha)... or maybe a 6-tanker 2-controller (one with emp and one kin) eden trial :evil grin:

If not, well, there's always next week.

Doesn't mean I have to become callous and cruel. Am I not allowed, as a hero, the right to mope and agonize over kills that I make?

I killed Provider. in PvP. Specifically, in Sirens Call. I was working the Hotspots, my colleague Funktastik had logged for the evening, and I noticed a 'New Bounty' annoucement indicating a CoV'er had entered the zone. I soon spotted a set of zombies and realized he was nearby. I opened fire. He died.

It was literally my first PvP kill. Rather than feel satisfied, powerful... I felt remorse. I tried to give him an Awaken, but we can't trade/gift with opposing pvp'ers. It *IS* possible for a rezzer to rez an opponent, and a defender finally came along and did so. I had promised him I wouldn't attack, and let him fly off.

I suppose as the game progresses, the more often I am in Sirens or Bloody Bay, that I will kill more. For now though, I contemplate...

New Supergroup formed:

Updated information on the SG group forming named League of Librarians . We now have a website to coordinate our activities and sharing of information. I've even got a preliminary title icon used for the web page as well as a LOL (heh) logo thingee which I might use for the forum avatar...hold on...

Just a reminder there's been some changes since this SG was first discussed. SG colors are now White and Black. The SG logo is the Building to represent the Library we defend. Magic is the primary Origin but exceptions can be made for Science and Tech origins. Read the website for further information on character builds. Thanks.

Before I read this guide, my blaster was dying every minute on the streets of Paragon City and had more debt than Bush the Lesser's government. Now, my blaster only dies once a week and has only one bar of debt at any given moment! Thank you!

Hmm I did it this weekend, and never had to repeat goals/maps as you mentioned. So it sounds like you had a bug going there. If you're talking about the Radar stations... It was in 3 different locations for me.

[/ QUOTE ]
No, I'm talking about the first mission, to recover two...documents? We had to do that three times, all in the same location. As soon as we left, we got the mission to go back in and do it again. There was only one person in our group who had done it before but she indicated it had happened in her previous attempt so we assumed it was intended.

Guess I'll bug it. Certainly made for a much longer night since those were all kill-all missions.

Yeah, that does show up as a bug. What happens is the TF doesn't realize you've completed the mission even though you did. If you knew you completed it, just go back to the contact and get the next mission.

There's a possibility the contact lost track of who the team leader is. Even though you can't change team leader status during the TF, this somehow happens and you will have to have every person on the team check with the contact until it accepts that person. Then it will move on to the next mission.

Failing missions usually has no consequences on arcs....unless they changed these specifically, and I really doubt they would.
You fail it, it'll just say: "Buck up !! Good news !! Shadowhunter's wolves all picked up Smallpox when you guys visited and it turns out, you did eliminate all of them !! And Shadowhunter stubbed his toe on an upturned root....so he's not gonna conqueur our world cause you failed this mission. You just aren't gonna get influence or adoration of millions of fans on this mission....but, hey...guess what...the NEXT Praetorian AV ......."
Heh...don't worry fail or not you're still ok.

Doesn't the AV count toward a badge at the end? So failing the timed mission will hurt him...(he'd have to go team with someone else who has it, but he'd have to rely on whoever that would be).

I'd like to think Striga as a whole set a new standard. We're going to try to use it as our goal in future zones and in City of Villains...

How about for retrofitting older Task Forces? Bastion is in severe need of fixing, as it is possibly the most boring TF in existence.

[/ QUOTE ]

Positron needs the most fixing: it is the longest, most painful, hardest to finish, least satisfying TF out there. I've complained about it elsewhere about it needing at LEAST five things changed about it.

Bastion also needs a fix, and indeed is probably not getting played much anymore ever since the Hess TF covers the same level range. Bastion, however, is mostly cosmetic: they need to mix up the maps and locales just a bit, instead of 9 tunnel maps one right after the other. Like maybe throw in an open air city map to round up rampaging Council robots. Just not 9 SAME TUNNELS IN A ROW.

My website ode to the Hess TF:


Best TF EVER

[ QUOTE ]
When Perez was crowded around the atlas entrance and merely peeking your head in or running by (no matter what level you were) would net you about 10 blind invites.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes! Now you can swing a Skul about and not hit anybody in Perez. They've gone to Hollows at that level now... There's nothing in Perez people want at levels 7 to 12...

I remember the days when Scrappers were "the worst Archetype in the game".

I remember when powerlevellers lived on the Brickstown train-station rather than wolf-missions.

I remember when TFs were unstable to the point of being non-existant.


Now it's time for the rest of you old farts to share your stories of the days of yore.
(Grumble... kids nowadays...)

[/ QUOTE ]

I can remember when TFs were made up entirely of Blasters.

Nowadays you have to beg to get one on a TF.

[ QUOTE ]
Two words:

Kill Skuls.

Are you in awe of the MegaMech?

[ QUOTE ]
We had:
1) Through the Looking Glass
2)A Shadow of the Past
3) A Council of War

So what comes next? "The Sound and the Fury?" "Sign of the Four?", "Piercing the Darkness?"

This one puzzles me. Any ideas or rumors about the title?
