Thanks for posting those Marvel! I've used a few of them on some of my toons, I just wasn't sure which one was which, and didn't have the time to research it. Thanks! =)

I'm a slacker when it comes to slotting, but isn't there a proc out there that lets you slot to improve mez resistance?

Yeah, cause I'm going to be on my Ill/Kin, so add even more pets to the mixture But hey, Speed Boost, so even better chances of you having perma-hasten

You've got it. Last spot goes to you =)

When we go to "break" Romy like MB did last night, whoever is near the platform can sometimes be viewed. It depends on how close they are to the platform when the cut scene starts =) I've often seen Teal Tabby picketing near the platform. Last night when I went to break Romy on Captain Powers team, my character was viewable floating in mid air near the mountain. You couldn't really tell it was her other than a blueish floating spot =)

Yeah that was a cut/paste error from last Mondays Ice Mistral run. I've been lazy in my posting

You should have at least a couple of 50's on your team MB, so if you trust one of them enough, you might want to have them take the star so they can get shard drops from the TF. I'm switching off to Luna for this run because my Monday night character is a 46.5 so I feel comfortable with where she is for next week's event (level 45+). I think Myrdinn's toon is already a 50, so his team will be set for that as well.

Sorry, cut and paste error on that. More than likely the leaders will all be 50's.

Which one is your Shield/WM? Is that Lady?

Imperious Task Force

Scroll up to around post #6 in this thread for a description of breaking Romy. Basically we trick the game into breaking his pets (the nictus) off of him so that they do not bug us while we fight him. He then kills them himself each time he rezzes.

And as you can see above, there is much debate about which way is better or what not. There's not really a better way one way or the other in my opinion, it just depends on the team makeup and the players. Just the way some of us tend to do it, and E was mentioning it so that the team will know what to expect. =)

I think he was hinting more that he was off this weekend and Monday, and he was up for more than one run.... and he was seeing if you was running it more than once Sunday night.

Ahhhh, you shoulda said something about wanting to watch it. I didn't know. I just didn't want the whole team rushing the platform while I was trying to break Romy. =)

Thanks to: Captain Power, Ex Iferis, Sevenpenny, Caliburst, Bluman, Storm Claud, and Psilox for a great team. I didn't write down the specifics, but I think we finished in 1:36 with around 42 deaths.

The way I ran it is about how we run it on an MO attempt CP:

Mission 1: Stick together, let the tank/brute grab aggro, free the chics . Once outside, fly straight up, let the brute/tank grab aggro, clear the side of the platform closest too us. Don't go past the center portion, otherwise it tends to aggro the novas and dwarfs. Free the yappy priestess, exit as soon as you can.

Mission 2: Stick together, take down the cyst crystals LAST. Watch out for pets exploding the crystals too soon. Watch that squishies stay away from the crystals. Grab the ambushes before moving on.

Mission 3: This one is really up to the team leader how they want to run it. I've been on teams with E where we've run it several different ways. I'm not sure which method he's going to use on the Mo. What I did last night was have everyone fly to the computer first in an attempt to stop ambushes chasing us around the map. On an MO attempt, we stop and take down the robots at each wave. Since last night was not an MO, and I like chaos I had us push thru. I've seen the computer get taken down many time without bothering to fight the robots. We were just a little too low damage for that. Depending on what kind of heals and buffs we have, we sometimes stand up near the computer (like last night). But sometimes the squishies stay back to the side while fighting. Again, just listen to what E has to say on how it wants to run it. Then I had the AV's pulled down to us, and we took them down. I then had us go back to the bridge. This is probably where E will have us fight the Generals at.

Mission 4: Again, it's open to how Eman wants us to fight it. Usually we clear the first bridge like we did last night. Then someone will go and attempt to break Romy before someone else aggros him too soon. We usually do it early in the mission just in case. Then the team either fights Romy and clears rooftops, or they clear the bridge up to the left to the platform (what we did last night) and then takes down Romy. I like that method because it avoids the laggy rooftops. It's slower, but more Bosses and EB's for shard drops, and less extreme lag.

Now this is my understanding on how to break Romy. Again, you should probably have MB instruct you further, cause he is the king of it. I've only attempted it 3 times and so far I've been successful each time. But I always doubt myself when I try it =P

One person goes to the hill in front of Romy. As soon as they are close enough, the cut scene triggers. Once the cut scene ends, that person goes up to Romy, and whaps him with a single target attack and then backs off. Avoid taunts and AoE attacks. Basically this breaks his Nictus from following him around. Now you have to be careful when you go to attack him again that you pull him down from the stairs with a single target attack. I've seen the nictus kind of get reattached to him when people have used taunts and AoE attacks to pull him. If he is broken, his pets will stay on the stairs. Be careful to keep Romy in line of site of his pets when he is defeated. That way he can use them to Rez. If he is out of line of site of them, you'll have to take the pets down yourself, and that can suck! Last night Romy disappeared for a good half minute after the cut scene and I got a little worried that it didn't work right. But he was broken when we finally got back to him. When fighting Romy, get out of line of site of him when he rezzes if you are squishy. My favorite method is to back down the stairs. That way I can see him jump up in the air after he rezzes, but he doesn't stun me.

Hope that helps CP =)

A Holiday for what?

:Smirk: Yeah I saw that after I posted my comment lol. I'm not confident enough to lead an Master of Team for this, but I do guarantee lots of death and mayhem! =) And hopefully shards!
