Luna de Nocturne

I'm all for having a semi-regular raid schedule once a week. As far as I'm concerned, let it be a chance for people to work on alts. The MO-runs can be scheduled at specific days and times.

I *think* Sunday nights are free in that list Myr. CP has cancelled his event, and I'm not sure of any others that are running that night.

I'm not organizing this beast, cause 1. I've never played either trial, and 2. I'm exhausted as can be with 2 full time jobs, and the 1 event I do setup a week. I'd rather not go completely off the deep end yet!

But from my understanding, times that might be open are: Sunday (afternoon or evening), Tuesday evening, Wed Evening EARLY (say 7 or 8pm Eastern), Friday evening, Saturday afternoon, and EARLY evening (again say 7 or 8pm Eastern).

I'm good for any of those but Fridays. I would love to get started on this. I'm a little intimidated at this point where everyone has played it a zillion times and are experts at it.

Okay, not a problem!

Got ya updated!

One spot was still open, so it's yours!

See everyone tonight!

Shooting for Early June. It was going to be the last week in May, but I might try to squeeze in a couple more little tidbits to this run =P

Request noted =) I think Fiona is our only Rad scheduled to be there, and no kins that I know of, so I'll make sure to put you on the same team w/ Fiona.

And to be specific, those are Eastern Time zone times =)

I second this opinion

Yep, push everything from mid-March on out back a week thanks to the ITF we ran. This week's event is going to be the Third Hero Respec (44+) followed by a possible ITF if enough people are up for it. This was confirmed by Mr E last night.

If the upper level TF's are led by a 50 you can get shards to drop. The more eb's and av's in the TF, the more likely you are to get shards. In *my* personal experience, ITF's, Dr. Kahn's and Lady Grey's are pretty good for shard drops if you clear the bigger mobs. I'm sure some of the others will come in here and offer their more biased opinions shortly.

Yeah some of my toons it is OBVIOUS what path I need to take them down. But on others, none of it really fits. But I need something, so I pick the one that at least gives me some bonuses. My main toon Luna is that way. She's already pretty well balanced thanks to the sets I've slotted in her. Thus she's been kind of neglected in getting slotted so far.

But other toons that the alpha abilities will help, they have been awesome to work on. So I think you should take Saltier to Mender Ram as well. Plus on TF's or WST's, if the team is too heavy on one type of AT, you can switch to another and still get shards on them.

Oh, don't worry about spending Vmerits on the robots. You'll want those for the Apex and Tin Mage TF's...... trust me! I think I went through 4 of those in one night on my rad.

=)

Well for the Tin Mage and Apex TF's people who don't have something slotted in their alpha slot are actually penalized by the game. Normally these TF's are level 50(or 50+) characters fighting against level 54 enemies. But if you do not have something in your alpha slot, you'll actually be fighting at the equivalent of level 46 going against level 54 enemies (including a ton of EB's and AV's). I've been on a few of these with people who were not slotted, and usually we've not been able to finish the TF because basically that person can hit nothing and dies very quickly and very often.

Here's some info on the wiki on how to get it slotted:

http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Alpha_Slot

http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Alpha_Slot_Abilities

http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Incarnate_Component

So basically decide what boost you want to work on. What area does your toon need more help in? Sometimes the tier 1 ability might not be what you want, but later up the tree might be something you do need. So take the time to look at your tree's and see what area you would like some more help in. Then look and see what pieces it says it needs. Then look at that last link I posted and see where those pieces come from.

You can also get "Generic" Incarnate Shards to convert into specific parts if there is an event you don't want to do, but you need the part for. I've done this a few times for the Cathedral of Pain piece. A great way to get generic Incarnate Shards is Rikti Mothership Raids.

Once you create your Alpha Slot ability, make sure to Equip it. I've seen a few people who have made them, but not equipped them. I hope this helps. If not just let us know =)
