    Thar be AV's in this one, so a debuffer wouldn't be a bad idea. Sadly this one's opposite the PERC Paragon Costume Contest timewise so I'll be sitting this one out.

    Disagreeing slightly with this, slotting the following two purple procs (if you're running a level 50) is extremely handy, moreso if you've got recharge bonuses in your build and/or Hasten:

    for Vines drop a Unbreakable Constraint: Chance for Smashing Damage. When it does go off, Vines will have some smashing damage. Keep in mind that the procs have a chance to go off on 1 to all affected by the power. The same holds true for slotting Gravitational Anchor: Chance for Hold in Roots.

    Unbreakable Constraint has a 33% chance of hitting the targets. Gravitational Anchor has a 25% chance of holding. And because you're slotting into AoE's, these have a chance to hit all targets affected by the power, which when they go off is extremely useful and are definitely worth their prices on the market.

    Overall, this is a very good guide. Oddly enough before APPs, I took Mu Mastery on my plant/fire and then respeced into Fire Mastery. If I wasn't already in love with Rise of the Phoenix or Fire Mastery wasn't an option, I'd also recommend Ice Mastery as an APP choice.

    Take whatever sort of boxed mac and cheese you prefer. Most of them want you to cook the mac then add the flavor packet to some combination of milk & butter to create the sauce.

    I mix the packet with plain whole fat yogurt (which is surprisingly hard to find outside of health food stores. Lowfat plain yogurt is foul, if you can't find whole fat don't bother). My favorite is Straus, second choice is Trader Joe's house brand. It imparts the creaminess you want with a bit of an extra flavor kick (I also sometimes sub it for milk in biscuits and pancakes).

    My other addition is shredded cheese. A handful of sharp cheddar gives it some pizzazz, fresh shredded parmesan is also a nice addition. If you feel brave you can mix n' match.
    Have you tried using Greek yogurt instead of regular yogurt? Greek yogurt has a richer consistency than normal yogurt and tends to hold up better than normal yogurt in cooking applications. Fage Greek Yogurt is my favorite to use, and I think it tastes better than normal yogurt.

    Depends on how long it would have to traverse through Customs.

    Well there goes my idea. One of them at any rate. I'll send you a shiny card with a surprise when I send out my cards for the Protector Card Exchange later on this year.

    We did that with the Newspaper Invasion. The names had to be "Protector 'name of newspaper section' " and it was fun! It stops people in their tracks for good times.

    But now we know more of what to expect.

    Excuse me while I go and get my super soaker temp power for this shindig.

    Hmm...

    Aww, it's no longer there. But I have a very educated guess as to the who, what and where. Tease.

    Maria's still handing both versions of the Marauder mission out on live. At least she was a couple weeks ago when I was running her arc.
