Depends on the buffs and the situation, for me I will CM those with no mez protection inherent and skip tanks and scrappers, the Fort to Blasters if damage is needed or toons having trouble staying alive for the def or if I am on a team with lowbies i will fort them for +tohit, AB to those having end issues or to the dps toons, shields & sb i try to get on as many as possible, +hp on MM, fender, trollers and blasters (if i have time I check to see if they are HP cap'd. It's very situational for me.

Yes lvl 25 is the goal for friday

For those that couldn't make it last night here is a run down of what was covered:

Opening given by Lin

First and formost the goal is to have fun and to teach the basics of a specific kind of PvP, team arena.

There are various types of PvP in this game: Zone, Duels, team and Base raiding (RIP). Each category of PvP has its own skill set and mechanics and no category is better or above the rest.

Zone PvPers typical build for self sufficiency (ie..pff and aid self, or hibernate) and don't focus on using insp so much as you won't be zoning to your base every time you run out of insp just to reload.

Duelist focus on 1 vs 1 and build their character to also be self sufficient.

While team PvPers create characters that work well together to create situations where a target is removed from play rapidly while giving themselves the best chance as survival by evading till heals can come in from a dedicated healer

The reason we chose team-based PvP is because it gives us the best chance at a controlled environment for people to learn in and work together.

Rules Committee- Flux - talking points:

We set up the rules for a couple of reasons,to prevent people from getting an unfair advantage, because it's a learning environment, and to make sure everyone has fun and enjoys the experience.


Go over rules:

1) Players new to PvP will be only allowed to 1 character throughout the duration of Boot Camp.

2) Vet PvPers and BC1 grads will be able to pick 2 characters to play in this session of BC, if they choose to play a "healer" as one of their characters they will get an additional slot (total of 3 characters allowed).

3) No Purples/PvP IOs will be allowed in Boot Camp2

4)Alpha Slotting up to T2 is allowed. No level Shifted characters allowed in BC2. If a player is noted to be level shifted in a match, the match will be replayed. If someone slots a T3 or T4 once the match has started that match will be forfeited. No other Incarnate powers maybe used. (NOTE: we need to test to see if setting a team match to heavweight (41-46) will remove all incarnate powers, if so we will use this feature)

5) All accolades are allowed.

6) At least 50% of the team must be made up for Players new to PvP.

7) No more then 2 stalkers per round. If two are played one must be a player new to PvP.

8) No more than 1 Taunter per round (Scrapper/Brute/Tank).

9) No more then 2 players with TK maybe used per round. In some cases, teams maybe need to play 3 or more characters with TK in these situations 2 players will be designated as TKers and only they are allowed to use that power.

10) No more then 1 Thermal per round.

Eligibility:

This event is directed at players *new to pvp* so players who have zone experience or duelists may find this event a little slow for them at first, but if they stick with it they might enjoy the team aspect after week 8.
Participants are expected to show some level of dedication or willingness to learn so players who miss two or more meeting/team practices without a valid reason or checking in with their team captain (post week 8) *may* be dropped from their team and /or the event.

Sportsmanship:

The rules committee will not tolerate any form of griefing or harassment of players by participants. People will be warned by private tell if they are felt to be out of line. Major infractions may lead to immediate removal from the event. This will go for in game, on the forums and on vent.


Scouting/balancing committee introduction given by Phillygirl


This group will design teams with relative balance in mind, so that everyone can play on an equal footing and have fun. We *may* rebalance the teams if necessary, so you may find yourself on different teams from time to time.

Everyone did a quick introduction of themselves.


Ideas/check off committee intro given by MP

The basic layout of the event was be talked about: 16 weeks, with breaks for Holidays.

ATs/Powersets that are eligible was stated and signup sheet will be posted.

This group will me monitoring players and if players need additional help with various aspect of the PvP game, we will set them up with either group workshops or 1:1 mentoring with a vet pvper to help them.

Players where welcome them again and tell them the most important thing is to have fun.


The sign up was posted and the slot's for dom's, stalkers and sonic/em blasters have been filled.


For those not on that sheet you can now make your Psi/em blaster. If you contact me or masque we will invite you to the global channel we are using.


It was also stated that many have offered to help with XP acceleration and both myself and Justaris will be running acco and tf teams weekly. These will be announced in the global channel so remember to keep that channel up on your toons.


Above all, this is supposed to be a fun learning experience for everyone. We’re here to answer questions, help each other out, and let people know about a particular part of the game that can be a lot of fun.

Please let any of us know if you have any questions. Welcome!
