  1. Tanker Tuesday on Freedom tonight!
  2. I support the Alpha slot missions if the release happens on Tuesday. Unfortunately I won't be able to organize this TT as I have a pervious family commitment. I'm sure the vet TTs will get things rolling.
  3. Tanker Tuesday on Freedom on the 16th!

    As it turns out I have another family obligation that's going to fall on this date, so I'll once again not be there for the fun. So, if all you vet TTer's could get things rolling I'd appreciate it.

    I was hoping we could run ITF as our TF for the evening, but feel free to modify the TF of the night to whatever everyone feels like doing or what we have enough toons in range to run.

    Cainus, last TT on Protector was in August, so we'll be back your way soon.
  4. You've got an interesting build there MajorDecoy. What is it that you're looking to improve? From what I'm seeing, I'd recommend pumping up your Recharge (maybe go with Hasten?). That way you could work towards Perma Dull Pain and cycle some of your heavy hitting attacks faster.

    I'd pick up Tough and Weave, and Boxing works well with Super Strength (another chance to Stun/Disorient/which ever it does, I don't recall). Tough and Weave will help you "Meetshield" longer, if you team a lot. If this Tank is mostly a soloer, I'd look for sets that improve Recharge, Damage and End Recovery.
  5. I guess it depends on how you want to build the toon. Electric's Lightning Reflexes really helps with recharge times. Beyond that you'll either decide to go with +Def using IOs or +Recharge (you can do both, but the build can get a bit expensive)(I like keeping Recharge times high on my Electric Tanks). Softcapping to Smash/Lethal and providing some Defense to Energy/Neg Energy can do quite a bit to improve servivability as does encreasing the recharge times. True, it's not Invuln, but then Invuln doesn't have Power Sink, Electric Field or the recharge rates that Electric does. Also don't forget the mitigation you'll get from War Mace. And, with Electric recharging War Mace's attack times, you should be in for some fun times.

    The down side to Electric is it's total lack of Resistance or Defense to Toxic. Toxic damage you just have to heal from as quickly as possible (hence the comment on Recharge times).

    I really enjoy running my Electric Tanks (I have 3). If you look to playing to your strengths and layer some Defense in, I think you'll have a relatively unique combo and a Tank you'll enjoy playing.
  6. Hi, and welcome.

    Tanker Tuesdays are on the 2nd Tuesday of every month here (6pm PT\9pm ET), meet in King's Row.

    Brutal Mondays take place on the first Monday of every month. Meet in RWZ at 6pm PT\9pm ET.

    Philly phlashes back on Thursdays (Ouro missions) at 8pm ET.

    Welcome to the game!
  7. Had a great time Philly, thanks for running the flash backs.
  8. I'd have to check, but it seems like we were just on Protector. Of course there's no reason you can't roll a new Tank and join us on one of the other servers.

    No worries Rangle, hopefully we'll see you this coming Tuesday.

    It looks like there are no real objections, so I'll go ahead an make it official. Tanker Tuesday on Freedom will be held on the odd months (starting this month). Virtue will get the even months. So, December will be Virtue's next Tanker Tuesday.

    Thanks all for your input, and I'd like to give credit where credit is due. After I had been discussing a few TT scheduling issues and events with him, Rangle proposed the alternating schedule. I think it's a great idea and look forward to seeing the new schedule in action. Now we'll get more Tank time on more servers. So, thank you Rangle for your on going counsel and help. I'd also like to thank all the other players (there are so many that I'm sure I'd forget to list someone...) that make it a point to show up to the events, lead teams and provide feedback and ideas for missions, themes and events.

    Thank you all for supporting TTs and the ongoing TT tour!
  10. Cardiac and Spiritual look interesting for my Electric/Fire. I push the recharge on him.

    Cardiac for my WP/SS

    Nerve or Cardiac for my SD/Fire

    Probably Cardiac for my Fire/*
  11. Hi all,

    The Tanker Tuesday Tour is reloading to Triumph on the 30th of this month! Tanker Tuesdays are an all player run all Tanker AT teaming event. We run Task Forces, missions, AV bashing, Trials and pretty much anything else the game has to offer. We meet in King's Row by IP Gate (on the wall) at 6pm PT\9pm ET. We'll set teams and get rolling from there.

    So, if you don't have a Tanker yet, it's time to roll one up! If you already have one, come join the fun as we smash our way through the goons and streets of Paragon City!

    This time through we're looking to run Citadel.

    All power sets and levels are weclome as long as you're a Tank!

  13. Hi all,

    Tanker Tuesday on the 16th! Meet in King's Row by IP Gate (on the wall) at 6pm PT\9pm ET. We'll set teams and get rolling from there. All power sets and levels are weclome as long as you're a Tank!!

    We don't have anything set for the TF this time, so how about an ITF?

    If you have any suggestions please post them to the thread, see you all in about a week!
  14. Great stuff! I know I had fun the last few times I ran with you all. I'll have to try to get over there a bit more.
  15. Had a great TTJ! Abandoned Sewer Trial, Sister Psyche TF, and a radio team!

    Next stop is Freedom!
  16. Another great TTJ! Thanks all for coming out to the event. We were able to field three full teams, a PI Radio team, a Abandoned Sewers team, and a Sister Psyche team. The all Tanker Sewer team was a blast and I'd recommend it to anyone who hasn't run it yet (especially an all Tanker one). I believe the Sister Psyche team was just finishing up when I had to log, and it sounded like the radio team was having a good time as well.

    As always a special thanks to everyone that lead teams last night, it really getting things rolling.

    See you all at TTJ next month!
  17. Hi Timeshadow, welcome to/back to Justice. If you haven't already, join JFA2010 and Justice United. You can usually get a team from those channels, keep up to date on server events, join TFs/SFs and look for a SG/VG there.
  18. TTJ tonight! See you all there!
  19. Some great art work there TJ, and welcome back.
  20. Just saw the thread, but thought I'd pop by and put in my 2 infs worth. I like Ice, but as many others have stated, you have to get past for lower levels for life to get good.

    That said, I have at least 2 Ice/* Tanks, one Ice/Fire, which is very fun to run, and a Ice/Stone Melee, also fun to run (but, he's still in his 20s so a few levels to go yet). I would highly recommend both these sets. I have an Ice/Icer stuck below level 10 on some server, but this is mostly due to my own issues with Ice Melee (not to mention my own addiction to Fiery Melee ). From what I've seen others do with Ice/Ice builds it should be good combo.
  21. I've done ITF serveral times on TTs, it's a fun run with all Tankers. Probably any well build Tank can handle the TF, but I've notice the times we've had a Dark Tank along the ending bits have gone much smoother.

    I think the best run I was on had 4 */SSer, 2 */FMer, and at least one of the remaining ones was */EM (don't recall the final one). Anyways, mobs didn't last long with the massive pounding they took from Footstomp + Fire Sword Circle and the bosses went down pretty quick as well. Mind you I'm not saying you have to use this combo, but of all the ITFs (Tanker only) that I've participated in, this one went the fastest and was great fun.

    I think Hyper ran an ITF for TT a little while ago, might be worth checking with him. I know he had some thoughts/comments on what he'd do differently next time (I think it went too fast for him).

    I think Bruising will help immessly, all my previous runs were done w/o this inheret, so we we're just out muscling Romy at the end.

    ITFs are great fun with all Tankers, make sure to post your results!

    Hi TBoxer,
    Running the respec sounds good. When we start organizing teams step up front with me and we'll see if we can get it set up.
  23. Thanks BC, so in summery (just to make sure I'm understanding the mechanics), it's the attacks that build your Fury, not the actual attacks landing.
