Sargatanas

We managed to complete the trial in 15:35 which is no where near Xtream's personal best of 8:13, but still a very respectable time A big huzzah to GullyTT for TP'ing the team around the map. If it wasn't for that we would have taken a lot longer.

Thanks also to everyone who took part in the trial race and the GM bashing at the end. We managed to hunt them all down apart from the ever elusive paladin construction

Hi Xemulas,

Many thanks for joining us. With yourself and some SG buddies we hopefully won't need to recruit many more this evening to enable us to get the two full teams.

See you later in the Hollows

Hi Haemathetica

I'll send you a tell once we have finished the trial so you can come and join us for the GM hunt.

See you later

Hi The_Fish

All three of you are welcome to join us for the GM hunt. I can assist by SK'ing your buddy for the fights, although I don't have recall friend to help with getting them around the zones, although I'm sure someone on the team will be able to oblige.

A number of the GMs are found in hazard zones which have level entry restrictions namely:

Perez Park (min lvl 7) - Kraken
Boomtown (min lvl 11) - Babbage
Dark Astoria (min lvl 21) - Adamastor
Crey's Folly (min lvl 30) - Jurassik

What level are your cohorts? My proposal was to hit the zones in the order listed in my original post so we would be going to Crey's Folly last. If you would prefer we could go to Dark Astoria before Croatoa if they are less than lvl 21.

Hi Kinergy and GullyTT, welcome to the fun again

Assuming The_Phantoms is OK to help out we still need 6 more players to be able to field two teams for this race. Can everyone please /t their on-line mates and SG buddies to try and stir up some interest in the event. No doubt we'll be able to recruit some players via the global channels on the night, but it would be nice to get the teams sorted out in advance so we get the race underway as soon as possible.

Updated player roster below:

1). Me playing Draconian Blade lvl 34 kat/SR scrapper *
2). Eiceman playing Eiceman lvl ?Ice/SS tank * or Xeron lvl? rad/rad defender
3). Clawd playing Clawd Butcher lvl 50 claws/regen scrapper
4). Chisel playing Chisel lvl 50 dark/dark defender (has stealth @ lvl 14)
5). Xtream playing Xtream Justice lvl 50 PB
6). Cynic playing SchrodingersCat lvl 50 rad/rad defender (has recall friend @ lvl 14 and stealth IO in sprint)
7). Evil_Bob playing Ruby Flame lvl ? stone/fire tank or another toon if required
8). Kinergy playing Prickley lvl 50 spines/regen scrapper (has stealth IO & superspeed @ lvl 14)
9). GullyTT playing ? Lvl 34 empath/? Defender (has stealth & recall friend @ lvl 14)

Reserves:
1). The_Phantoms playing Phantom Blue lvl 50 Ill/sonic controller

* Has trial contact unlocked.

So far no one has expressed an interest in the GM hunt afterward. It would be nice to get a rough idea on numbers for this. Let me know if you fancy kicking the big boys butts

Hi Evil_Bob welcome to the event

Hiya

Dark Blasphemy sends his apologies to say he won't be able to do the TF tonight since his PC has gone into meltdown and is at the repair shop.

I hope to be able to join you, although as mentioned in a previous message RL/job might prevent me from doing so

Hiya

Just to let you know that I may not now be able to make the TF due to RL stuff - sorry

If I'm not on-line around 8:00pm then assume I'm not going to make it.

Hi Guys

Thanks for signing up. The good news is that we have three players with the trial contact unlocked. The bad news is that so far there are only 4 of us taking part :

1). Me playing Draconian Blade lvl 34 kat/SR scrapper *
2). Eiceman playing Eiceman lvl ?Ice/SS tank *
3). Clawd playing War Jay lvl 35? WS (has stealth + recall friend @ lvl 14) *
4). Chisel playing Chisel lvl 50 dark/dark defender (has stealth @ lvl 14)

* Has trial contact unlocked.

Anyone else want to join us?

Hi All

This time it's a race to see which team can complete the Cavern of Transcendence trial first. The cavern trial is levels 12-15 and requires a minimum team size of 8. This race will be taking place on Tuesday, 29th April meeting at the TF contact in the Hollows @ 8:00pm. I've managed to complete this trial in 14 mins so it will be good to see if this personal record can be broken. This trial can be a nightmare since it's pre-stamina and the magma lords and lava pools can quickly destroy a team. It can however be ghosted really quickly if a team is well organised and has a toon with invisibility/stealth and recall friend.

Link to trial details......

Since this trial requires the contact to be unlocked by completing the Hollows story arc we will need team leaders who have already done this. I'll be playing Draconian Blade my Katana/SR scrapper who has the trial contact unlocked. So I need at least one other volunteer who has access to the trial and is willing to lead a team. We need a minimum of 16 players to get two teams together. It would be great if we could have more.

If you are planning to join the trial race please sign up on this thread before hand letting me know the toon (or possible toons) you are proposing to play along with their powersets and whether they have invis/stealth IOs and recall friend/team TP powers. This will assist me in trying to work out balanced teams in advance and will enable us to get the event underway as quickly as possible.

All going well the trial should be finished quickly so following this I was proposing to do a good old fashioned GM hunt:

Perez Park - Kraken
King Row - Paladin (and look in hope for a Paladin build spawn)
Boomtown - Babbage
Independence Port - Lusca
Dark Astoria - Adamastor
Croatoa - Eochai, Jack in Irons & Sally
Crey's Folly - Jurassik

So if you want to join us for the Cavern trial and/or the GM hunt please sign up in the thread below.........

Hi Clawd

Sorry to hear the AV caused you so much trouble, but I think your team had a disadvantage of not having enough damage dealers and a debuffer.

The TF race next Tuesday night will be the Cavern of Transcendence trial, followed by a GM hunt. I'll post a new thread for this later today.

Well done team 3 (Those Who Never Were SG) with a blisteringly fast time of 34 minutes. Team 1 came in with a solid time of 45 mins. Not sure how team 2 did. They were battling Mary (AV) for the tenth time the last I heard.

Thanks to everyone who took part in the event. Next Tuesday it will probably be the Manticore TF. I'll post something on the forums tomorrow about it.

Thanks for letting me know Defcon. Sorry to hear your PC is burning up. I think my PSU is on it's way out since over the past week it's been starting to smell like it's overheating

Hopefully some more people will sign up for the TF today else it looks like we'll be doing some recruiting tonight. Team 1 will need a tank else the first mission will be challenging!

Yeah gj all and thanks for organisnig this Shock,

Sorry about face planting on the first mission. Things were laggy for me and dull pain didn't activate in time. Was also unlucky that the ambush mob appeared right in the middle of the team resulting in the second face plant

Nicely done all. See most of you again for Synapse next Friday.

Hiya

Sign me up for the team please. I'll play my scrapper Draconian Blade again. See you next Friday

Hi Shock

I should be able to join you with my DM/Invul scrapper.

Huzzah! Well done matey. I had the pleasure of teaming with Tialfi several times over the past month on various TFs. In fact we'll probably need him for tanking duties on Tuesday night when we do the Katie Hannon TF. See you then

Not to worry. Three of the player have highlighted they have toons who have the TF contact unlocked so it's not a problem. I'll try and complete the Croatoa story arc over the weekend so should have Katie unlocked (phnarrr) by Tuesday.

Welcome onboard Super_Ready. Do you have the TF contact unlocked?

Looks like we're now up to 13-14 players. We need to get at least 4 more people involved so we can field three teams of 6:

1). Me playing Draconian Blade lvl 28 (should be lvl 30+ by Tuesday) Kat/SR scrapper
2). Xemulus playing Anti Hymn lvl? Ill/storm controller * (has sup invis + recall friend) + 3/4 SG mates
3). Eiceman playing Eiceman lvl 37 Ice/SS Tank

6). Clawd playing either Lupine lvl 42? Invul/SS tank or Chick Chilli lvl 50 Ice/Ice blaster or War Jay lvl 33 WS (has stealth + recall friend) *
7). Kinergy playing Prickly lvl 50 Spines/Regen scrapper
8). Dark Blasphemy playing ? lvl ?, ?/? blaster (has stealth + stealth IO)
9). Defcon_Kid playing either Defcon Kid lvl 50 emp/elec defender (has recall friend), or Blaster Kid lvl 50 fire/fire blaster (has recall friend), or Hielo Radiactivo lvl 50 ice/rad controller, or Tialfi lvl 49 stone/axe? Tanker (has recall friend)
