Oooh, I haven't done that one in quite awhile, and coincidentally my SO is going to be busy tonight. Count me in for the 7 pm run.

edit: make that the 9pm run.


 

Posted

Wow!
Great turnout... both runs had full teams! Tho on run 2 our Keldian DC'd just b4 the last mission!... we waited a good 10 minutes... and still finished the run in 83 minutes! First run was 91... we skipped a few mobs and on both runs we skipped the mobs in the last room and just pulled the AV to the door.

Again I'd like to thank you all who participated!... I really find that TF exciting and quick... one that doesn't drag on and on AND doesn't feel rushed even when you do!

Gratz on your lvls and recipes!

Hope to do it again real soon... maybe next Thursday too??.. we'll see...

One left, finished with 7 member team (thanx for stikin' it out guys!) and 2hrs 4 min and many lvls later.. we got our badge and Recipes!
Had a few more Hess 1st Timers! Good to see KnightOwl back in action!
Next Thursday more of same!
Good Job all!

I'd never really gone anywhere -- but my normally non-gregarious nature precludes much notice (I do alot of soloing).

That was my first Hess TF. I shall need to do it again in a less inebriated condition so that I can appreciate its subtleties. I can recall only two team wipes, but I remember heedlessly charging the nearest mobs at least once, maybe a few times (Scrapperlock: 100%).

Was there a giant Wolfpack-like robot in that last huge room, or was I seeing things?

Thanks for having me along, bodenee! Looking forward to doing another one sometime!


 

Posted

Absolutely!...
We NEED to petition to get that giant out of the volcano and trounching Striga! Striga needs a Giant Monster!!! He's Bigger than KRONOS I believe!
It'd be great if he were "triggered" Like Babbage is in the Synapse TF... Say right after the 4 Radar stations are taken out Burkholder cuts him loose among the Isles in Striga... that'd be a great Monster Mash! (and another badge of course!)

..and look me up again next Thursday!.. this would be the 4th Thursday in-a-row I'd be trying for a double dose of Hess!
6pm and 9pm Central time... maybe I can keep it going as an ongoing thing! (?huh?- well you know what I mean!)
And really great to see KnightOwl in action again!


 

Posted

THURSDAY!!!
Tomorrow's THURSDAY!!!
Time for another double dose of the infamous Hess Task Force!

First starts at 6pm central time with yer host... Bone Head'

Second at 9pm Central hosted by Tank Bodenee!!

Come one, come all!! Every SG, Every AT, heck.. even the fairy "magic" Origins can come!!!
Levels 25-30 Get xp, Everyone else above 30 gets to have a Hellofa good time!
Whoot!

??? No Oobe 5 stars???

Another sweet Double Dose Thursday...

1st Run was with 6 and went smoothly enuff... we did the Kill-all and was done in 1:54...

2nd run... well that dam BUG showed up! We were all getting disco'd when we tried to enter the first mission! Team was of 8 and we lost 30 min on the timer (it kept running even tho we couldn't get started!) and yet still finished in 1:57!

So thank you all who participated and I'll be doing the same thing next Thursday!


 

Posted

It's Thursday! Time to bump this thread!
First run starts in about 2.5 hours...

Hope to get enuff folks to do the 2 runs again!
I have a new toon with access may run one with her...
Hope to see you there!


 

Posted

I'll be there


 

Posted

Once again 2 great teams!
1st was Tank heavy... still worked out quite well! (time of approx. 1:40)
2nd run (time of apprx. 1:20) was 2 tanks 3 scrappers, PB, Contoller (Carnage went twice! Thanx!) and a Blaster... I know we had at least 2 deaths-by-typing!!.... (if only I'd learn how to type without having to look at the keyboard... owell )
1st run I was on my 50... snagged another Numina as a random drop... and heard of several other nice recipes as random drops b4 we got the choice at the end.

Archon Burkholder went down fighting like hell both times tho we cleared more the 1st run than the 2nd!

2nd run we had Alli Sin along, a Task Force virgin, she seemed to enjoy the going's on...(I've been running into more and more "new" folks in the game, people on their toon up to lvls 20+ and they've never heard of a Task Force!, Like Lemur said, "Hess is a nice one to do as their 1st", UNLIKE the Positron-from-Hell... )

Thank you all and hope to do the same again NEXT Thursday!

Speaking of the Hess...

I've yet to see a "bad" group!

One may take a little longer to complete it than others...

But no...

Never a bad group... must be something about the so few Mezzers involved in the whole thing...

only a few Vamps...

But teams of all makes of ATs have been able to breeze thru...
I think this helps those that think TFs are too difficult to accomplish with their build of (insert AT here!)...

So come one, come all, and bring whatever, whoever, you'd like!

Thursday is just around the corner... >.>



P.S.

I was even contemplating MAYBE a Monday Moonfire TF series...

There's just something about the lowbee-quick (2 hrs or less) Task Forces that I find soooo appealing! (Besides the rushed "speed Katies")

...and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one!


 

Posted

Okay...

So Hess is still Thursday -- a double dose -- participation pending...

While tonite we're gonna try another Moonfire TF. 7PM Central time... I'm gonna run it with My Defender Minney!

Well......

Things went a bit awry....

5AM Wednesday morning, right after I got off work I noticed a virus warning coming from my CA Virus protection (Security Suite as supplied by RoadRunner for it's customers...) It stated that it had a virus and that it had cleaned it but needed a reboot to erase it...

BIG Mistake!... once the reboot had completed my comp was screwed...
it would boot windows then sit there, any application I tried running met with the same results... windows application error, data missing in line blah blah blah....
UGH!
12 hours of trying "tricks and fixes" to get around the problem were fruitless... finally it was a C: drive Format and reinstall....
DBL UGH!
I lost a lotta stuff... bout 3 yrs worth... on the bright side I had nearly 60% of the goodies backed up on my D: drive so that helped, but still....
the next few hours consisted of -- Download, Install, Update, reboot... repeat...
And even then.. finding the correct drivers that I had for both Video and Audio turned into quite a task..
but I was Finally up and running about 6:40pm Thursday evening... so I had to cancell the 6PM run, I did manage to get nearly a full team for the 9PM run tho (7 members) and despite my incredible lag we still managed a 1:40ish run!

I'd like to thank those that joined and to apologize to those that didn't get to do the 6PM run and to those on the run with me for my Z o n i n g speed... sheesh!

ANYway... I'm still tweaking settings and HOPEfully be up to full speed again (or at least as fast as I was b4 the crash!) in time for another Monday Moonfire... Moonfire is still under 2 hrs.. but it seems longer than Hess...


OH!
YAY! Our Forums are back!!!


 

Posted

Hopefully the lag will be minimum but I'll be running in safe mode... still can't figure out what driver i'm missing or how i had it tweaked before the crash...

But we're still on for tonight!

Thanx go to KPC for letting me Adv in the PinnBadges MoTD.
