Sounds interesting, i can lend a hand with my dom mind/ice or my mastermind robots/dark ill leave it up to you on which one you want.

A very big thanks to all those that showed up today it was awesome 7 kronos and 2 paladins was indeed a lot of fun , And also a very big special thank you to the members of the echelon and crucified swords that offered themselves as bait.

Its not too much but heres a mini sideshow of todays event hopefully next time we can get a camera man Slideshow of todays events

Now I'm thinking if we get enough interest for doing this again we can maybe do this again next month with better organization more titans and also an extra paladin, one of them managed to escape us this time *shakes fist* so if anyones up for another just leave a post here and the next one will hopefully be even better.

Last minute bumb
Robot rampage will be between 8:30-9:30pm GMT all those wanting to join in please wait at kings row station till the charge orders are made.

Bait are expected to be ready and waiting in pocket D by 8:20pm next to dj zero where further details will the be put forward to them.

Right I've taken a look at the crimson arc world wide red and have tried it out seems that a gm krono will spawn as an ambush after the 9th mission regardless of difficulty setting. So the 9 missions can be done in about an hour or less on heroic.

Which leads me to my next point for this where going to need at least 10 people who are up for being our "bait" the role of the bait is easy just do the arc up to the 9th mission which is defeat all wildflower agents and after the mission is completed, instead of exiting the mission the bait will use they're teleporter to go to pocket D where they will then wait for the other baits to show up once all the baits are ready they will proceed on to kings row, where everyone else will be waiting.
So who's willing to be bait?

I'm thinking of doing this on sunday the 16th after the rikti mothership raid so between 8-9pm.
Anyone interested send me a tell if your willing to be the bait, just take note scrappers or tanks would be best for this role, but if anyone wants to try anything else feel free.

not sure about Friday but i should be able to help on Sunday

Just another thought might be a good idea to do this after a rikti mothership raid, so that folks can get the spare merits needed for some vanguard bots

yeah figured it would make for some good ol server bonding

While browsing the us forums i just happened to find this rather interesting player event on heroes Clicky

With a video of their last event here Video clicky

So my question is thus, who's up for fighting a load of paladins and khrono titans for a laugh?

I think dark spiders taken a break from heroes for a bit, so it's prob best to say someone else should try taking the lead for a bit.

Welcome back mate

Notes:
One of the older supergroups out there the swords are now recruiting fresh blood after a somewhat quiet January. We're a friendly lot with a lot of coalitions who like to play on and off at all hours of the day so theres usually someone to team with, as well as teaming where into our tf's pvp and a little bit of badge hunting too.

Villains and heroes indeed cant team together in warburg, which is kinda a shame, ill try and be there.

How about going to Warburg?
Since it's an all Vs. all zone, we wont get 15 heroes Vs. 4 Villains.

Ill be there mate, as for the 15 heroes vs 4 villains just ask people on heroes to switch over to villains to help balance things out and thus making it more fun.

Ghost Widow's Hold is meant to be completely irresistible by design.

So an AV is meant to be able to one shot kill any member of the team... and we are still meant to be able to get the MoSTF badge... ... not seeing the logic....

[/ QUOTE ]

And there lies the challenge, the MoSTF badge is meant to be one of the hardest badges one can obtain, the idea is just to find a way round this and stop it from happening.

If i can make it mate ill back you up with my mind/emp, Defiant ftw

I can't see a good reason for a /Kin to leave it out even if they're Mind/ and can't SB a Pet.

It's like an Empath without CM.

I Remember when i tried that once, was about the time i joined the swords so almost bang on two years ago and plight was having a fit over me not taking it

[ QUOTE ]
Speed boost is lot more than just a free superspeed - it speeds up everything, all your powers cycle faster; it's great buff - though be warned, some people really don't like it, as the extra movement speed can upset their playing style.

Total agree with, somtimes its good to ask someone if they want speed boost or not and most often youll get a yes please for it

As for increase density it is indeed worth taking since all forms of mez protection for your squisshy friends is always a plus, however with its short duration i find it best using it only when people ask for it or are in need of it during a fight.

Might have to put the party on hold mate, got a brand new shiny 360 elite staring me in the face just waiting to be played, poor thing is still in its box for almost a week now

Ahh mind control my favorite of the control powers out there and the only one i ever use

Confuse is one the most awesome powers you can get on a controller helps speed up your solo play a lot and is good for when you have hold resistant enemies like longbow balistas for example you can just spam confuse on them and not aggro them till your ready to assault them. Other great things about confuse are that when used properly you can get free buffs off enemies for example you can get a free accelerate metabolism and bubbles off rikti gaurdians, Confuse should be gotten as soon as possible.

Siphon power isn't a major must be make sure to get at some point between levels 2-20 it helps

Health goes without saying gets even better once slotted with a numinas +regen and recovery and a miracle +recovery

Don't bother with challenge even if you going for intimidate or invoke panic, compared to terrify they are rubbish. Even slotted with just 2acc, 2fear and 2 recharge SO's you can keep your opponents perma feared, as for its accuracy granted you might miss the odd or two opponents out of a group but i've never ever had a problem with terrify missing So make sure to grab it at lv26.

Speed Boost is only good if you plan on teaming, they will love you for it, it really does make a lot of difference for some characters especially granite tanks However if you plan on solo play its not really needed.

Telekinesis Is without a doubt one of the best available powers accessible to a mind troller, its somewhat meh in pve but in pvp it is uber .
It does however have its use's in pve, its good for herding mobs into other players AoE's or pushing them out the way, or my personal favorite use for it, is to confuse a strong opponent like a warwolf lt or boss for example and just tk him into all his friends around the map, where he will rip them apart super fast as long as you keep him confused
However theres no point in taking TK till you have stamina other wise it will drain your end like nobody's business and it will be even better once you get transference. Recommended slotting for TK is 3endred and 2 recharge SO's and i would recommend the same with IO's too.

Inertial reduction is actually i really a good move it give both yourself and anyone near you superjump for a while, put that together with siphon speed and you don't even need to take a travel pool power.

Group fly isn't exactly that great a travel power, the only time i think it would be useful for is for a hammi raid which you don't see many of those about at the moment + the minus accuracy is annoying...

Kick and tough useless on a mind/kin and why would you want a very [censored] melee attack on a ranged character? all i can say is skip it and think about taking something more useful like leadership.

Phew that was a long one, hope it helps.

website seems to be down sin
And only 2-3 more days till my glorious return

One of the biggest problems of the last raid was that a lot of people didn't have EoE's so if we are doing a new raid we need to make sure that a giant monster raid on monster isle is done at least an hour before hand.

Count me in for next weeks one
Bloody handins....

Well i'm all up for a weekly thing and Thursday makes for a good day for it, although I'm going to have to wait till next week (24th) before i can join the cause, got 3 hand ins this week
