Anyone available this weekend to do the Recluse SF on Saturday Night? 5pm BST.

I don't want to turn anyone away but I would preferably like to have a full team of 50s.

<ul type="square"> [*]No more than one Stalker. [*]A few Corruptors (all different) [*]At least one more Brute (I'm Energy Aura) [*]No more than one Dominator (because I never see them) [*]No more than two Masterminds (Both different powersets) [/list]
If you have what it takes and are available meet at Recluse at 5pm on the 5th August.

Would have posted this earlier but boards went down [img]/uk/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]


Good team but gave up in the end because it was too late, which was a shame. Managed to take down 2 Heroes in a row before aggroing the rest. Multiple resets and couldn't get single heroes. I still enjoyed it though. [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Can I bring my Energy/Energy Brute?

We taking nukes ?

I have two now, Chemical and Biological. I also have Shivans. I think we have more chance of completing this if we get as many temp powers before hand as possible.

Having read the other threads about this Strike Force it can be quick if theres a good team that know what they are doing and can pull effectively. Would really like to do it in under 5 hours. If we can't though I don't mind coming back on tomorrow (will have to be after 3vP as I have a match).

I'm EM/EA too, already got my Shivans and a biological (I think) nuke. It would probably be easiest to do this over two nights.

Depends how you are going to play or if you want to stick to concept. I chose Mace because I PvP and the Web Grenades are useful for stopping people running/jumping/flying.

I don't know where you get the idea that TP Foe is some all-triumphing strategy, but as both an early user of TP Foe in PvP (since the arenas first came in), and someone who's been TP Foed repeatedly, I can tell you that it isn't. For a start, most travel powers will get you far away from your TPer before you can get your first attack off, and that means they'll probably be at least halfway back to the safe zone - and that's presuming you've slotted TP Foe with 3 Range.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'd have to agree and say TP Foe isn't all that. The times I've been teleported 90% of the time i've escaped unless the person teleporting me was really well prepared and had already laid down quicksand or something to stop me jumping/running away. Its even more useless if the person being teleported has teleport themselves and can just point and click to get away (no running required). I get teleported alot mainly because I've buffed the rest of the team consistently with Increase Density and I'm the only one not covered.

Oh and never try and teleport an Energy/Energy Brute because you just can't.

Collide - Energy Melee/Energy Aura Brute - Mace Mastery

I'd like to do this with my Energy/Energy Brute. Hoping to hit level 50 sometime today too.

I'd like to do the Recluse SF with my Brute too. Level 47 at the moment. I doubt I can make tonights but if I can I'll be online from 6:30pm. I will need to get a nuke and Shivans. I'll definatly be able to make Saturday. Send a tell to @Enervator if you need me.

In the past, we used the fact that hamidon didn't attack while held. This time, this was no longer a possibility since it can now attack through holds, even when held. So we used the next best thing - containment.

[/ QUOTE ]

The best thing to do is to watch the ground beneath Hamidon. Most of the time there was blocks of ice/stone, I'm not too good with hold names, and these could have been immobilisation powers. After everyone started attacking the lag went up and Hamidon started disappearing, the blocks of stone/ice also disappeared and I wasn't sure if it was still there but the conditions were preventing me from seeing it. I couldn't see most people near me but on previous raids i've been able to spam speed boost at a fast rate. This time I had transfusion on auto and i had to rely on the combat window to know if it was firing.

[ QUOTE ]
I thought the problem was not quite enough holds all the way through? Would this not be solved by more controllers?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think we had enough controllers, the problem was the lag and it stopped the holds from firing off quickly. Also halfway through there were shouts on Broadcast for the controllers to keep using the holds (possibly because they had stopped).

I think when the healing blanket was in place the PA weren't necessary. It just added to the lag, which stopped the controllers ability to hold. Spamming heals also added to the lag, but its necessary when you don't clear the Mitos.

[ QUOTE ]
Might be worth holding off the hami raids until I8 hits. Mind you, I think numbers will be flagging worse than they are now so that might not help much either.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why I8? The problem wasn't lack of people either.
Seems to be a common theme to your posts recently.

I use insp if I have the right one, but I don't purposefully go out and buy them. I'll farm mobs and use the ones i don't use in fights, till i have enough of what i want.

I think the people most likely to complain are the ones that can't cope with your health suddenly going back to full. Even some powers that look like insp get frowned on lol.

Just don't talk in PvP.

why? BADGES AND XP!

[/ QUOTE ]

Thought they removed the XP from the Sig villains . . .

[/ QUOTE ]

They definatly removed the debt.

I thought that what you wore affected your stats in most RPGs.

Who mentioned item collecting/chasing? Not me and not anyone else in this thread as far as I can see!

Please explain!

[/ QUOTE ]

Maybe it was the mention of:

[ QUOTE ]
but it does make for interesting customisation of your character and another thing to fiddle about with.


[/ QUOTE ]

Where Item collecting is seen as a way of customising your character. In WoW and SWG everyone looks the same because they all go for the same 'uber' items.

I think Dark's heal is more powerful, and can be placed easier too.


[/ QUOTE ]

I don't know alot about Dark, but if your thinking of Life Drain, like Max said its rubbish. The Pet is good, but you don't tell it when to heal or not.

Summer was quiet last year too, i think it must be the sun drawing people away.

I can bring Enervator.

Kinetics has the best AoE team heal, but you need an enemy nearby to target. (Anyone next to the enemy is healed).

The main 'healer' is an Empath/* Defender. They get various heals and then move into Buffs at higher levels.

The other defenders are used to buff your team mates or debuff the enemy or both. Each one plays differently, some requiring you to be more active than others. If you want to be offensive go for Radiation, Trick Archery or Kinetics. Defensive go for Empathy, Sonic or Forcefields.

Storm is offensive and can be very good when used right. From what i've heard it isn't the easiest of Power Sets to pull off effectively.

I should play Heroes again soon, those two have been at level 43 for ages lol. My Brute is closer to 50 though.
