Hi there!
Thank you. It's mighty nice being around so many friendly people. I was not able to jump onto Champion very much this weekend. Both Swan lee and I want to play with CO and on this server more often. We are home-based on Guardian (which we still love) and have only been there, so we have some inertia to overcome. We are getting there.

On Guardian!

In keeping with the Capitol Offense theme and in a fit of inspired silliness, last night we created:

"Tax Payer": WP/SS Tank
"With the strength and determination to endure and overcome any evil, including bad fiscal policy"

"Presidential Intern": Grav/Kin Contoller
"Able to manipulate and stimulate more than just the economy."

Still available: Working Stiff

Vixen was working on a new one... how did that turn out? out?

Wanted to pop back up into the thread after being away over the weekend. Coors L1ght is still @ 18 and eager to lend a hand with the Synapse TF (min. 4 Heroes / lvls 15-20). Now that I'm back I can start trying to find a timeslot that works for the largest group of CO members. I also don't feel like waiting until next weekend; so my preference would be for a weeknight run as early as tonight even... This time around instead of suggesting a time at the beginning that is unlikely to work for everybody I'll try something different.

Let me know first if you're (1) interested in doing the TF sometime in the next 5 days; (2) when your preferred start time would be and (3) the times which you will not be able to make due to a conflict, etc.

Once I have an idea of how many people are interested and when they are available, I'll post again with a tentative roster and start time. If things happen fast, this could be as early as tonight.

I'd be up for trying this on a weeknight, but I don't know about tonight. I might be going out for Mardi Gras, but it might end up being too cold to do anything but stay inside and play CoH. We'll have to see. I can work my schedule around other nights this week, but I'll be busy all day on Saturday.

Hulkbuster -- were you available this Friday night?

Can you make it 8:30? I work late Fridays, I won't be home 'til at least 7:45.

Sigh...I'll get to TF with you guys sometime soon, but it won't be this weekend. I'm heading up to Mass for some family stuff, but will be back Monday evening, I think.


Have fun on Synapse!

I'm gonna have to go with Turg on this, if we could push it back that would be good.

Looks like I'm sitting this one out. As a general rule Fridays are the only day that isn't great for me. I'm usually out Friday nights(pretty much a dedicated movie night for me and my friends). Any other time I'm in for a TF or just general missions run.

Friday at 8:30 PM EST should work out fine for Magisterium. Sign me up.

How long have you been waiting to use that?

Hey Vixen, sorry about leaving so suddenly last night, I was expecting the gf to call much later than that. She was actually calling to say that she was just outside my house for a random stop-by, so it's probably for the best that I didn't ignore it.

I think I can make Friday, and I don't mind exemping for the merits!

I'm hoarding all my merits on my two CO characters. Out of curiosity, what are you going to do with yours? I can never decide whether to craft something that will fetch a guaranteed high price at WW's in order to boost the ol' personal finances ... or... continue to save 'em up for later in the character's life when there is a specific IO you just have to have and yet are not willing to pay for.

Merits. I am not sure that I like 'em yet... though it was ridiculous that things like the Katie Hannon and Doc Q's TF's granted the same reward. Generally, I like how the rewards scale nowadays. Though I do think it's unfair in some regards that merit rewards are based on devs data-mining completion times versus a truer measure of overall difficulty. Villains are especially shafted here, due to top-tier VG's and teams speed-running things like the LRSF which is extremely difficult content rewarding *cough* 25 merits. As a random counter-example I ran Manticore's TF last night on a 7 person team with a 30 Defender on Infinity for 32 merits in about 1:30. These two things are not equal in difficulty, period. I feel LRSF is &gt; MTF by a significant margin. It's just that the l337 people crush the LRSF over and over and over very efficiently, thus reducing average completion times, thus reducing their own eventual reward in the form of merits. Think about merits at your own risk.

Manticore's TF is fun, btw. That'll eventually happen here once Capitol Offense folks start getting up to 30.

Honestly, I dunno. I'm playing two powersets that I've never played past the teens before, so I'm pretty much making it up as I go along at this point!


...I forgot what experience means.
