MoSTF: Weekend Edition

Continuing from Rfactor's thread - I will be forming MoSTF attempts on weekends (either Friday or Saturday night) starting at 11-11:30pm eastern/8-8:30pm pacific.

What is the MoSTF? It is a badge for completing the Statesman Task Force with the restrictions of No Deaths & No Temp Powers allowed (which also includes Vet Reward Powers).

The Team: I am not a stickler for having the optimal team. That said, I do believe we need a good mix to be successful. But I will still give it a try even if the team has absolutely no chance at the MoSTF (like with that 4 blasters & 1 ws team a couple weeks ago).

I will mainly be running this on my Tank (Mr E-Man) to start, but if someone else would like to tank, I can switch to my blaster or scrapper.

First Attempt:

Friday, May 16 @ 11-11:30pm eastern/8-8:30pm pacific.

Sign-up here, show up in IP or send me a global message.

Some people that have expressed interest for this so far:

Mr E-Man: Inv/SS Tank
King Sac: Eng/Eng Blaster
Shadowrush: MA/SR Scrapper
Dyrnwyn: Rad/Rad Defender


Global: @Mr E-Man

Didn't see this post. I made some suggestions in the other thread if you're curious.

Yes - I started this thread sometime after I read your post. Most of what you said I knew already, however I do appreciate the input.

When the death occured in the tree room on this latest run, the person was off to the side, while I was directly in front of the tree - not actually sure why he was targeted & we did not have a bubbler.

It is really just a matter of with your suggestion we would "build a team" for the MoSTF as opposed to what we have been doing, which is "populate a team" for the MoSTF out of the available players on at the time.

I am also not the type of person to turn away someone based on what AT/Powerset they happen to like playing. I will turn away someone if I have personal experience with them being a crappy team player. (can't wait for player notes)

I hope that if I had an over abundence of people show up, I would try to create a team that I believed have a greater chance at success.

Yeah, I agree that turning someone away because of AT is crappy. My friends and I have the benefit of having multiple toons we can play.

Well, if you will have me I would very much like this badge. I have over 400 badges but I am notably missing this one. However, seeing as you already have a scrapper, I can understand if you would pass me over.

Isley Bloom Spine/Regen Scrapper

As noted above, I'll try with any team.

So if you show up there is a good chance you will be on the team. We will have to see how may others show as well.

Salutations,

I would be interested in joining the MOSTF, I have a lvl 50 WP tank Kid-Gold if he can get in. He's slotted for Sturdiness. Global is @Silverx. However if that will throw off the team no worries.

E... its ME...
I would like to try this run with you. I can bring my Stoner or i can bring my Ice/Kin .
I think I can make it tonite but put me down as a maybe wifey and I are going out and i think I will be back in time to start

Hey Hell - if you can bring you Ice/Kin this time around - I promise next time you tank...

Which brings up...

If we have (and it appears that we will, based on responses here & in game messages) more than 8 people show up - I will (hopefully) choose a team that will give us a good shot at success. I don't want anyone to have hard feelings. My suggestion is to show up or at least send me a global to let me know that you are on & available.

If you do not make the team this time, I will continue to run these every (or at least most) weekends for the foreseeable future. (Next week will be Saturday Night 5/24)

Also the Wednesday night runs will continue as well. (see the other MoSTF thread by Rfactor)

The important thing is to have fun while we are doing this.

Well another run and another failure.

We did make it past the Tree room this time around, but Dr Aeon did us in this time...

...and I will take the blame for the devastation...(but I did learn something new as well)

Mistake #1: I did not make the plan clear for Dr Aeon - too many people rushed up & got into melee range & were promptly nuked.

Mistake #2: We might have been OK with mistake #1 if I didn't need to learn this valuable lesson - Do not use the temp power on Dr Aeon until after he puts up his shield. Last night I used the temp power as soon as I got near him & then he put up his shield & was still invulnerable...that temp power takes a long time to recharged...thus allowing him to lay waste to 3 or 4 people.

*sigh*

Finished in 2 hrs 9 mins - we played it loose at the end (aggroing the four AVs at once & originally not taking out the Flier) & had very bad implementation on our first Recluse attack (we regrouped & killed the flier) - things went smoothly from that point on.

Had fun - next try will be Wednesday night (see the other thread).

Next weekend run will be on Saturday Night.

Thanks to everyone that joined in the attempt.

Hehe we did fail to get the badge. But it was fun though. I also got to experience something new that I haven't personally experienced before, until last night's run: Fighting all four inner circle villains at the same time! And win with little trouble! I thought that was kinda great.

Me E is a Stoner in disguise!

I'm willing to try again on a weekend run, midweek isn't so hot for me. Next week being Memorial Day weeekend means I'll be away, so good luck in your upcoming runs!

I also agree, best tactic with Dr Aeon is no one makes a move on Aeon until tank calls for the attack.

Unfortunately, I was a little busy over the week, so I missed the send off for the 5/16 weekend MoSTF.

I'll show up for the 5/24 run. Don't know if you'll want a 2nd MA/SR scrapper on your team, but I'll be there on the ship in case. No biggie if I'm not picked, just hope everyone has fun.

We were a bit oversold this past weekend (I know Silverx sent me a global wanting to join in as well), so I didn't even announce it on Freedom Badge.

My suggestion is to always stop by if you are on to see how things are shaping up.

I may be unable to post during the day this week - see my useless info post for details.

Sounds good to me (Well, except for the part about the 'piece of crap' computer - hope it gets fixed soon).

Edited for clarity

Just wanted to say I will be around tonight to see if we have any interest in running the MoSTF - I know a lot of people are deep into all the I-12 goodness (the Wednesday night run was a bust due to lack of people).

11-11:30PM Eastern / 8-8:30PM Pacific

I'll be on for another try!

I'm currently at the ship, hoping to get in...

Failure to launch tonight

Next week will also be a Saturday niight try.

Well, I got it tonight. My other post on this details it a little bit.

MrEMan, since I got it on my main badger, if you ever need a invul/EM tanker, grav/rad controller or 2 scrappers I'll help your team get the badge. I'd be up for it again if you just need a filler or whatever to help get it launched and completed.

Send a tell to @Fasttrack1 if you need me.

Thanks again.
