Expeditor

Well the servers got brought down for maintenance before anyone from support got back to me, so it's been reset.

I'll put the word out for anyone still needing Diabolique or Infernal towards their Multidimensional badge - probably not going to be available for such a thing until Thursday anyway, but should be good to finish that and the final 2 missions in the arc (Dominatrix and Marauder in the following mission and Tyrant in the final one) then.

Thanks all! I've got to say the 40-50 run has certainly been the most enjoyable of my whole career - teamed with so many great players I wouldn't dare start naming names for fear of forgetting someone

A special thanks to Idris for getting me to dust Ilservian off and start playing him again! And thanks again to all the great folks I've bashed AVs with, conquered trials and taskforces with, and have made this game and this community so funtastic

You've not seen the last of Ilservian - there are still plenty of badges to be had

Grats again mate Shame about the buggy last mission, but those pesky Praetorians will think twice before messing with us again

Grats Xam, that'll teach me to dawdle 2 bars short going badge collecting - guess I'll have to take your fingers after all

I'd imagine if we stopped at the last mission you'd still be good for end of tf bonuses and such next week.

Of course someone else might not be able to make it next week Any obstacles to attendance we should be aware of for next week folks? Obviously with it just being the one mission, if everyone could get on just for 30 minutes we could get it done - it would rely on everyone having access however, as opposed to being in the middle of a business meeting in Japan or something (unless you can nip out for a 30 minute lunch break? )

It slipped my mind that there's also a gladiator badge (Meson) when you get the Multidimensional badge, so it should be good for 4 badges at once

Grats on the 4 year thing Tufty

See you all tomorrow for Babbage and Clockwork King shenanigans.

I'm not aware of any minions that can't be teleported, and I'm pretty certain that bosses and above can never be teleported. I'm less certain about lieutenants - I'm pretty sure I've seen them teleported before, but I wouldn't bet a shiny penny based on my memory alone.

Just a vague guideline until someone with more solid info chips in

I'm on the lookout for the Disrupt Nightstar's Ritual mission, which awards the Shrouded badge towards the Portal Jockey accolade.

Coincidentally, Nightstar should also be the last Praetorian AV I need for the Dimensional Warder badge, and those 2 badges are the last 2 I need for the accolade, so it should be good for 3 badges in one fell swoop

Anyway, if anyone has it I'd much appreciate getting in on it Evenings would probably be the most viable option for getting a team together to defeat the AV, and any evening except Tuesday should work for myself.

Indeed, I went from having just hit 49 to being 2 bars short of 50, despite half a dozen deaths! A little more experience than I was expecting

Jolly good fun and a great team - thanks all, and g'night.

And good luck with your exam DL!

Meet in the middle of portal corporation, by the swirly symbol thing, at 9pm. Bring food, drink and AV missions

I'll be bringing Ilservian, my lvl 48 scrapper. I should be able to provide an assortment of lvl 50/51 Praetorian AVs, altho others are of course welcome.

Whilst primarily for the 45-50 crowd, subject to interest and turnout, there may also be provisions for a 40-45 team and a smattering of sidekick spots for those poor souls trudging through the mire that is the late 30s.

So, what do you reckon? Sound like a plan?

Grats Yellow

Good man I was going to arrange a run myself, now you've saved me the bother of having to write stuff... wait a second!

Anyway, I'll be there with Ilservian, lvl 48 scrapper.

I'm busy about 1 Friday in 20, and you had to pick one of 'em. Well fine, I'll start my own Maria Jenkins storyarc. With blackjack. And hookers. In fact, forget the storyarc!

Good luck anyway

It might be well worth giving teleport foe consideration - aside from the utility of teleporting unsuspecting stalkers onto trip mines and the like, I find teleport to be a PvP travel power of choice for unsupressable cowardice. 2 or 3 range enhancers should allow you to bring back a runner (assuming he hasn't slotted for range) if it hits to allow you one or two more shots to (hopefully) finish the job.

Other than that, looks pretty good - good luck with it

Well I've just checked and can confirm that you can get the ore extractor, and therefore the Shivan pet/temp power, whilst still in the taskforce. Ganking stalkers would just be a bonus while we visit the meteors and whatnot

I've also checked on our progress on the TF, and we're only just about halfway through, so it might be worth doing an extra 2 or 3 missions just to help us finish it by 9 next week.

If folks have other things to be doing then by all means don't feel obliged to attend, it's for all intents and purposes a week off, but I figure we've got enough to keep us entertained for an hour if you do turn up, and, as ever, the more the merrier

Synergi is parked just inside Bloody Bay if you'd care to join me there at 7, elsewise I'll see you next week.

I'll be there with Ilservian - lvl 47 scrapper

How does a short n sweet run from 7 til 8 sound? We can still head to Bloody Bay, see if we can get the Shivan pets, maybe harass a few villains if any are about, then break up at 8. If there is plenty of villain smiting going on we could then carry on for another 20 minutes or so until the badge thing.

Sound good?

I do apologise again - it was absolutely insane in there. I was just getting pulled back every time I tried to go anywhere - I actually got to the mission door shortly after Dagar, and about 6 more times before you guys got there! And I still had to make a dozen more runs to the door before I could go in!

I thank you very much for the badge - it has been markedly absent for some 40 levels, I'm only sorry I was unable to do anything in the mission!

Is this still occurring?

I'd like in with Ilservian if you'd be so kind

Grats both

Siphon power and siphon speed are debuffs as well, altho sadly single target, so rather less noticable amidst all the auras and such like

Twas a mightily impressive run today - our powers seem to be scaling a good bit faster than those of our enemies. I certainly look forward to seeing how we progress into the higher levels

What's attendance looking like for next week? With Precips absense, the trip to Bloody Bay looks to be a good idea - we can all pick up our Shivan pets if nothing else. We'll have to see what the villain presense is like on the night

Well I'd imagine we'd be able to do the taskforce twice before we hit lvl 21, but besides that we could also take a trip to Bloody Bay for some PvP larks during your absense.

A third option is to continue up to the last mission in the second week and then save the last mission for your return the following week.

We'll see when we get there anyway. Hopefully we'll have a full turnout tomorrow for getting it started at least.

See you all in the morrow folks

Indeed, it was a close call but an exemplary push to finish the job at the end - well done all and thanks again for coming
