  1. Wow... you know... if this is true... I might actually forgive the SWG implosion. Somewhat. Certainly enough to stay on.

    And here I'd consigned SOE to the "those who shalt never again be mentioned" bin some 6+ years ago.

    Fusionette.

    I always wondered if anyone else felt that way. Well said.

    I seriously LOL'ed
  4. I'm pretty much in the same place. I've only run 2 additional Keyes since then, and neither was a Mo* run. Haven't seen these forming up, either.
  5. Okay, I'll bite -- you're doing daily attempts, then? I can bring TK Kid at 9:30 Central, no problem. I'll probably wait till after 2xs xp weekend is over, though -- can barely get a BAF going this weekend with everyone on alts.
  6. I'll totally be there for the next run, once ya'll get it scheduled.
  7. Aye, much fun was had by all. Thanks again for hosting!

    Yup. So ~150 (not 120) dead Rikti PLUS 250k inf = 1 thread
    Generally get ~450 VGmerits on an average raid, perhaps. Underestimating
    With the understanding that you can only spend 150 VG merits per 20 hours
    Also that you need to convert through 4 different currencies (VG merits -> Gr'ai -> shard -> thread) with an injection of a fifth (influence)
    Then you need at least 20 threads to do ANYthing.

    So we have a wait of 20 days and 2.5 million inf to get one common component from the new trials. This fits my definition of "not much use" but YMMV

    Personally I'd rather blow my merits on having those massive robots following me around for no good reason. ^_^

    I'm much more excited by the shard drops and all the fun had at these raids. And I like to use them to earn healing badge credit as well. But mostly I just like to see Dispersion Bubble saving folks from all the psychic whatsmajiggits flying around.
  9. I'll be there for that. I've been looking forward to tackling a RWZMSR with Leagues. It's one raid that TK's Forcefields are REALLY useful on. Too bad the thousands and thousands of VG merits aren't really much use afterwards.
  10. Dang. Glad I was browsing the boards this morning. I still really need this badge. I'm 0:9 at MoLG attempts, since some Scrapper always seems to faceplant on Hammi. That's the only difficult part of the TF, but it seems like TK is cursed. Here's hoping I can get on a 2nd badge team(?)

  11. It appears so.

    Didn't there used to be one of those lists lying around of things to do while Freedom (or CoH) is down?

    ...ah, well, gives me a chance to start updating my copy of Test Server for tomorrow.
  12. Epic fail on the first attempt. We managed to get Marauder down to like 18% but that was all. In part because the rampant DCs the trial forced down the league's throat. We rarely had more than 14 players connected at a time during the last stage of the trial. But really, what killed us was that AWFUL leader we had. Just terrible. >.<

    Oh. And, yeah, we won the 2nd time, when Leo led us. I think the 2 extra Kins keeping us near or at my 300% damage cap put us over the top. Much better experience with fewer DCs, too. That's leadership, baby! ^_^

    But that first guy! Man! He sucks. >_>



    (Okay, so I heard the way to get out of taking out the trash was to do SUCH a bad job at it the first time you never get asked again. Universal? Maybe.)




    (edit)
    Very sorry we missed you tonight, MarvelatMee. I never saw your post until now. Did not realize you were waiting for us, and I misundersood when someone mentioned it. And I was wondering why Mucho was just waiting there. I was going off that list on page one of the thread and was looking for PawPa, and not your global.
  13. TBA not necessary. I'll be appearing as TK Kid, per usual. Kind of a necessity, since I somehow managed to play this game for 7 years and only ever raised one other character up to level 50. I guess I'm naturally immune to alt-itis? I guess I just get too attached. >_>

    I definitely want in on the MoLambda. I can sign on for the MoBAF as well, to reduce the amount of PUG'ing necessary to fill out the leagues. I already have the badges for that one, though.
  14. Well, I'm looking forward to trying this again. Hopefully without the wonderful CTD on loading Marauder in the courtyard next time. I'm pretty casual with what times I play, so having a date/time set in the forums works well for me. I'm free most any evening, although I can't commit to Mon/Weds unless we start after 9 PM EST.

    I realize that I'm one of the forum "unknowns" so I don't mind if folks would rather someone vouch for me ahead of time. I'd much prefer to do this sort of thing in good faith, however. The frustration can be enourmous, I can understand that. But when it all comes down to it we're talking about, what, 30 minutes lost? MoLAM ain't exactly a Dr Q guys. I hope this bad experience doesn't get us all in the "everyone must pass around the temps before we can start" frame of mind. Teaming with friends I can understand. Treating adults like children rubs me the wrong way, though.
  15. I'm up for this. All I need is Keep Em Separated

    So, we're meeting where? And using which global chat? Did I miss the start?

    Will need to plan on starting a little later tonight, since they just posted ANOTHER downtime today. On the upside, I've just barely managed to squeeze a 1/3/1/3 incarnate build out today. Thank you very much, Astral Merits. ^_^

    Given the quality of PUG/Leagues I was experiencing yesterday, zero chance I'll be able to earn even one incarnate shift by Friday. Random players FTL

    Of course, I did most of that while globals were down. Makes it tough to form a good league beforehand.

  21. Eh. I'll be on next week. If we get a date/time posted I'll be all over this.
  22. Confirmed on Freedom: It's 19.5 pushed to live. I wonder when they'll announce the WST? Should be sometime Tuesday, right?
