Due to no one having LRSF unlocked, we decided to run a +4 LGTF. Even the Hami at +4. Thanks to our fearless leader, King, Hami fell to our might. We finished in less than two hours and moved on to the resulting invasion in Kings Row, where for a change of pace, we beat up some Rikti.
Nemesis must have determined that we were a significant threat to him because he showed up. We beat him up and told him that compared to Rangle M. Down, he was a rank amateur at plotting.
There was some ideas tossed around for our next endeavor. If I remember correctly, fire blast corruptors, mental/psi and energy were brought up as possible options.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend. -
Lord Recluse sounds good to me. We won't be able to put the smackdown on States for too much longer.

Quote:It's not that I don't have the time or I'm not interested, my thought is that if the base is going to revamped, then it would be nice if it reflected the style of the group. Everybody has put a lot of effort into earning prestige.
I can help out if you're too busy or not interested. My creative skills are lacking, though. I can handle the functional stuff but not the decorative stuff.
Don't sell yourself short creativity wise. You always have an interesting back story written and a well designed costume for your characters. One of my favorite parts of a new team is seeing what you've come up with. If you would like to make the base a collaborative effort, I would really like that. -
I'll be on a bit late tonight. Have some errands to run.

Quote:Duct tape. I forgot to leave the duct tape next to the porters. My bad. Sorry about that.I got the Dark Astoria explore badge for the SG and the Dark Astoria beacon. However due to my inept base editing skills, the beacon is stuck to the wall instead of the teleporter like the rest of them. I assume you have to do something sneaky to get it there. Please feel free to fix!
Actually, in order to attach beacons or any other wall mounted items to teleporters or anything that you would like wall items attached to, the trick is to place a cubicle where you would like the item, connect the item to the cubicle and delete cubicle.
I've got some RL stuff to deal with at the moment, but as soon as I'm done, I'll get to it.
EDIT- I upgraded the porters to the new hacked telepads and attached the beacons. While I was in the base editor, I noticed we were sitting at about 7 million prestige. This is enough to make a really huge base. My question is-does somebody else want to try their hand at base building? I can do it and have no problem with that. But before I did, I wanted to see if someone else wanted to give it a go. -
Quote:That's really nice of you MP. If you want to run a team that is not a tf team to pick up latecomers, I can lead a +4 ITF.
For sunday: i think the plan is to try get some on/another a +4 ITF, if need be i can grab one of my 50's and lead it or at least be on the non-ITF team since i was on it last night.
Speaking of 50's, grats goes to April Day/hedge for being the first 50 of the group! (which dethrones me, but i am in a close second agaisnt ara.) -
Quote:I went psionic mastery on my fire/kin troller and I rather like it. Indomitable will is click mez protection. It's not perma by default, but with all the recharge buffs that are being thrown it will be. Mind over body is a resist toggle. Nothing spectacular, but it's not bad. It also gives that elusive psi resist, smashing, lethal, psi resist, to be exact. It's a good place to stick an Aegis proc. The psinado is fun and does okay damage. It also works against high level invulns like States, Reichs and The Honoree. I didn't bother with mental blast or world of confusion. I suppose if you wanted another confuse, you could take that. But it's a PBAoE toggle with a short range and not enough mag to confuse lieuts.On another note...I was thinking of going for the Psionic Mastery APP on my ill/time controller (for thematic reasons as well as for the powers). But when I looked at the numbers, I wasn't that impressed. But I've never played it before, so...what is the general consensus on that APP? Is it OK in practice?
My opinion is that it's a solid choice for trollers because of the mez protection. In theory, you could wait till you could pick up Clarion for mez protection, but that doesn't help you during these levels. -
Show up when you can. The defenders have started picking up chrono shift and I believe there's a few corruptors and trollers that are getting close as well. We've been tearing through everything like a hot knife through butter, so any lowbies in the group won't stay lowbies for long.

Quote:Ah...altitis, the gift that keeps on giving.Ok... I broke down before Dark Control goes live tomorrow and made a Time/DP defender by the name of "A Rangle in Time"...
I'll also be making a dark/time controller when I get a chance. Altitis, it multiplies...Love the Wrinkle in Time reference.
Welcome to the group. Feel free to call out for a team on the the superteamers channel. There should be a group on later today to check out the I22 goodness. -
Quote:If any hero timers wanted to join that weren't 25+, there's a few tf's that can be ran. Posi is 10+, Synapse is 15+, Sis P is 20+ and Moonfire is 23+. If someone wants to bring a new dark affinity or assault character next week, we could run a mission team to get them xps. The low levels fly by in these groups.
Weekly update: Most of the JSTers have completed the shift from vil-->rog. the level range is roughly 27/28ish to 31/32ish last time i checked. Which means those of you lurkers who are blueside and wish to join us should start watching our channel for the whats going down. this weekend will most likely be finishing up tips for those that need too and maybe a tf/sf of somesort. -
Oooh...a Rulu-Shin code. Here's a couple builds for your perusal.
This build is all purpose build with heavy regen and moderate psi resist.

Quote:This might be possible. If I get around to it, I'll hit him with a power analyzer and take a peek at his stats.
Makes me wonder if we can root Synapse in the LRSF
Baub and I rolled in late tonight. We got a flat on the freeway that turned into hours waiting on new tires.
I think that there's enough people that are 20+ to start going rogue. Time to start making excursions to blueside for tfs and give hero timers a chance to join. -

Quote:With xp smoothing, the low levels fly by on these groups. Our policy has always been that anybody can join at any time as long as they fit the theme. If I remember correctly, Fade Aside joined as a level 1 blaster when many of the core group was 35+ and is now one of our level 50 alumni.Shoot
I never saw this thread...and the first day has passed
My guess is that when people start hitting 20+ and go rogue, there will be excursions made to Paragon City to run task forces. So after the first few weeks, people won't need to start as a villain to join in.
The Dark Astoria revamp will also be good for this group. People that hit 50 will be able to get their incarnate goodies and those that haven't hit 50 will be getting xps. -
Tonight went well. Leveling was a breeze and there was much scourging and disintegrating.
If there's any hero timers out there that are available to join on Sunday, we could knock out some event missions. The missions can't be completed without teammates from both alignments. -
Quote:I might be convinced to hop servers for this.. but just out of curiousity.. why no MMs?
Our last few groups had pretty broad themes (dark, earth, rad, bladed), the dark, bladed and the earth teams were broad enough that we had tanks, brutes and scrappers in the group. When we were discussing the theme for this group, a few people expressed a preference for a single powerset team without characters that were as viable solo as masterminds. -
I was afraid of getting The Final Countdown stuck in anybody's head. Such a terrible earworm.

Having a purpled out warshade isn't a requirement, I was making a joke about being a casual player. A while back, before the current forums, somebody posted a rant about the difficulties a casual player could have with purpling out a warshade. Back Alley Brawler responded directly to them asking "Did you really just use 'casual gamers' and 'purple out a warshade' in the same post? "
At the time, epic archetypes were unlocked at 50 instead of 20, there wasn't the variety of methods that we have now to get purples, there was no WSTs to run and, if I remember correctly, xp smoothing hadn't happened yet. In order to have a warshade that could be purpled at that time, it really couldn't happen with casual play.

Quote:arafel posted in the all access boards.I plan on doing some pub this week, starting tonight with some in-game broadcasts. I may also see if I can convince a Mod on one of the big Justice channels to include a quick message about our party in their MotD. Now that Player Events is no more, I wasn't sure what non-server specific forum might be good for a shout out as well to notify folks who may not read Justice because they don't play on it normally.
The JU and JFA mods are really helpful when it comes to promoting player events. Shouldn't have to twist their arms too hard.
I've been thinking about another public event just after this group starts to get the word out. Part of the problem that I've had with coming up with an idea for an event is that there will sure to be f2p lowbies. I want to include them, but I don't want to hand a bunch of inf to someone who might not stick around. Then I saw a post on Massively about an EQ2 player that was having a Pay It Forward event. It seems to me that this could be a good event for us. New people could show up and us old people could help them out with some tips and tricks that we've learned over the years.This would be an opportunity to give badge tours, explain how accolades work, run some task forces and hit the zones that have a story arc, like Striga, Croatoa and Faultline.
I know when I was new, I had some misconceptions about the game. Someone convinced me that if you failed the Ernesto Hess task force, the big robot climbed out of the volcano and stomped around Striga. Words cannot describe my disappointment when I learned that this wasn't true.
One of the more useful things that I learned was I could see who had healed me in my combat tab. After a tough fight, I would be sure to thank anyone that showed up in my combat tab. Then I went to a GM fight and saw a name, but couldn't find the player. This guy was at every gm fight I was at but I never could find them. I spent so much time looking for Transfusion...
