  1. Took a while to get a team together this week, but once we did everything ran smoothly!

    Time: 46:25
    Deaths: 13
    Team Size: 7

    Next week on the List is the First Respec Trial, which awards the Thorn Robber, Thorn Thief, or Thorn Usurper badges, depending on how many you've run before. This is a pretty fast SF, so if the team is up for it we'll also run the second respec trial and maybe the third as well! So meet up in Nerva next Sunday, August 7th at 5pm PDT/8pm EDT!
  2. Looks like this has been postponed til Aug 11-14. Link
  3. Kinda slow this week, but at least people showed up this time! Also I didn't take very many action screenshots because I kept forgetting.

    Team Size: 4
    Deaths: 2
    Time: 1:22:35

    Next up on the List is the Mortimer Kal Strike Force, which awards the Promethean Badge as well as the Flames of Prometheus temp power (+MaxHP, +Regen, +DMG) which lasts until you're level 50, at which point you can claim a Notice of the Well. So if you want to trap Positron's girlfriend in a crystal and then go beat him up, meet in sharkhead next Sunday, July 31st at 5pm PDT/8pm EDT!
  4. I'll try to be there if I can. I'd bring my brute, he's not very good as a tank but he's got a lot of AoE damage so he'd probably be good for the add team as well.
  5. Thanks to all who joined and stuck it out through the whole thing! We finished in 3:59:42, and I just woke up after a night of sleep that lasted slightly longer than that.
  6. SFS cancelled this week due to lack of interest. We'll try it again next sunday.
  7. I love when this happens. What gets me though are the little differences when I play my alts on another server. When they run Kahn they'll fight invincible reichsman until the mission ends. On mothership raids they'll take out the pylons in the reverse order from how we do it on protector. For BAF they'll drag NS and Siege to the reinforcement spawn point every time, whether they're going for the badge or not. It really does feel like I'm playing in the bizzaro universe sometimes.

    Or you can add a dash and he becomes the super hero: Slender-Man!
  9. Ahhh, it's good to be back! We had an excellent Tarikoss run as usual and I got to work on my Empath again. I've also realized that completing tarikoss triggers a zombie invasion in one of the villain zones, which explains why last time 2 times I did tarikoss we ended up fighting zombies afterwards.

    Next up on the List will be the Silver Mantis Strike Force, which is level 20+ and awards the Air Pirate badge. So if you want to fight Colonel Duray without getting hit by an air strike and a bunch of praetorian wackiness, meet up in Sharkhead next Sunday, July 17th at 5pm PST/8pm EST!
  10. Woohoo, I'm back! I just wanted to post confirmation here that I WILL be running Tarikoss SF this sunday at 5pm PST/8pm EST.

    Now, it looks like a metric ton of information has been released since I last had internet access, so I have some forum reading to do.
  11. I should have internet access again this friday, so for now I'll plan on running tarikoss this sunday (the 10th) at the usual time. I'll try to post here if it looks like I won't be able to make it.
  12. Ok, so I missed last sunday because AT&T decided it would be funny to shut off my internet service before my new service was set up. Also there's still some technical issues with my ISP so I won't be around this sunday either. My plan will be to start up with Tarikoss whenever I get internet access again, until then SFS will be on hold.

    Yeah, last time I tried to make a bane spider I decided I wanted to go mostly range so it wouldn't feel too similar to my war mace brute. Something about it just never clicked with me though so I ended up deleting him and using the name on my empath.
  14. It took about half an hour to get enough people to start this week, but once we started it was a load of fun. We had a ton of deaths fighting director 11, but after that it was smooth sailing. We even took down the cracked out Bobcat without any deaths!

    That was the last strike force on the List, so now it's time to start over again! First up is the Tarikoss Strike Force, which awards the Binder of Beasts badge. So bring out your lowbies next Sunday, June 26th at 5pm PST/8pm EST!

    I actually know a few arcs from others that I would love to nominate, unfortunately they were all broken by the profanity/copyright thing and are currently unplayable.

    So, I hope someone brings a villain, heh.

    (Congratz on the MoCuda!)
    Just an FYI, you can only start LRSF if you've done a patron arc at some point.

    Also, I would have signed up for this but I don't know what times I'll be available so I figured if you have an opening and I'm around I'll join up, otherwise good luck!

    He was also offered a role in the Matrix I believe and turned it down for the same reason.

    Also, if you send me your stuff I promise to delete any purples in front of everyone just to make them all cringe.

    Actually a few of the Lambda's I've lead over on protector I've had us clear then enemies during the gathering stage rather than stealthing, we still finished with plenty of time and all the squishies survived. To be honest, I actually have much more fun doing it this way, it's very low stress for everyone involved.
  19. So right now I'm on hold with AT&T's tech support about some internet issues I've had lately. I'm also trying to log into protector every so often. I'm wondering which will happen first.
  20. Well, Protector is back up, but now I crash every time I pick a character and click enter.

    EDIT: Just logged into one of my alts on Infinity just fine, so it's definitely an issue with Protector.
  21. I think victory is down too. Just posting here in case NCsoft's server people somehow don't know about it.
  22. The Double Header this week went really well, with a nice quick Silos run and an Apex run that successfully unlocked all the badges earning the master badge for any that didn't have it already!

    Mender Silos SF
    Team Size: 6
    Deaths: 0
    Time: 30:04


    Apex SF
    Team Size: 8
    Deaths: 39
    Time: 36:30

    And here's the Link for the photo album. Unfortunately I forgot to take screenshots for most of Apex, so there's only 1 in there.

    Next up on the List is the Tin Mage Strike Force which awards the Alpha Struck badge for completing it. Just like Apex it requires you to have your alpha power slotted otherwise you'll level shifted to -4. We'll also be trying for all the master badges on this one, but I won't hold my breath on that midnight dodger one. So if you're not tired of fighting Praetorians yet, meet up in the Rikti War Zone next Sunday, June 19th at 5pm PST/8pm EST!
  23. I bugged this in game but figured I should post it here too. The Reptilian face is missing for females now in all categories (except "Special Helmets").
  24. I'm off work for the summer so I should be able to join this time around!
