Example 1:
Hero Bob (has the star) and Hero Fred are in Cimerora and on a team and wish to invite Hero Jack to join them. Jack is in Peregrine Island and doesn't feel like running to the midnighter's guild. Bob invites Jack to the team (all heros so no issue here) and gets a mission from Marcus Valerius. Jack uses mission teleport to appear in Cimerora at the door to the mission. Bob abandons the mission from Marcus Valerius, recruits 5 villains and they start an imperius task force together.
Example 2: (Worked a few months back, I honestly don't know if it still does)
Hero Bob (has the star) and Villain Fred are in Cimerora and on a team and wish to invite Hero Jack to join them. Jack is in Peregrine Island and doesn't feel like running to the midnighter's guild. Jack instead runs to the Rikti War Zone which is a cooperative zone. Bob invites Jack to the team and gets a mission from Marcus Valerius. Jack uses mission teleport to appear in Cimerora at the door to the mission. Bob abandons the mission from Marcus Valerius, recruits a mishmash of 5 more heroes and villains and they start an Imperius task force together.
but I still haven't had a chance to test if a lowbie can get in via mission teleport using these techiques.

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
Can I add something?
Cap au Diable is the most popular spot for selling/crafting. The BM and university are back to back practically. Pretty convenient. 
Good job on the tour giude!
To truly master a Mastermind (heh) go to the Mastermind boards and read up on the guides on using keybinds. Get used to the idea of directing your henchmen, instead of taking action yourself. It's a little like playing a little RTS mini-game right in the middle of all this first person stuff.
There are many ways to play Masterminds, and tanking is only one of them. Just as there are many ways to play Brutes, and tanking is only one of them.
