Are You CRAZY?

That's what people keep saying when I say I want to run a Dr. Q, and that's what I'm asking you now: Are you crazy?

The Dr. Q TF in the Shadow Shards is level 40-44. It's 24 missions long and it's worth 111 merits.

It's hellishly long and very much a grind.

Unfortunately, I seem to have acquired a taste for shiny things lately, and I want the badge.

This Saturday, May 23rd, I'm looking to run this TF all in one day, hopefully with a willing team that fully understands the kind of pain this TF is. We're going to try to start sometime in the early afternoon (so, 1 or 2 pm EST, hopefully), take a dinner break if necessary about halfway through, and then come back to finish it. The time is negotiable based on what time people would be available.

Let me know if you're interested by posting your toon name, AT, powersets, and level in this thread.

Thanks!

I'm in for it

I like that TF

Hm.

*scratches chin*

I'm intrigued... Especially since I've got low 40s who could make use of it...

And I've done it. Attempted it three times, completed it once. There's nothing terribly overbearing about the TF except the length of time it takes to finish.

Look at that. A full-grown woman pulling off pigtails. Her crazy is off the charts.

I wish I had someone who was just slightly higher in the 30s... I've got a level 37 db, ... If I push her to 40, perhaps. I don't know, haven't been playing all that much but pencil me in as a maybe.

Hell she's even got teleport.

I'd love to resurrect The Philotic Knight for this one TF if you can push it out to after my show is over.

We'll need to see if I have space first...Unholy grabbed the last spot before you posted, I just hadn't updated the list yet.

EDIT:

Added you to the list as possible second-string...I don't know how long we can hold it off for, though. It's long as hell and I do want to do it all in one day.

Well, since we have so many "maybes" I can put people on the second-string list and let you know if someone doesn't show up. First come first served though.

Yeah post a second list, please. There may very well be enough people to do a second one. Hopefully, with a leader who has done it before, because I know I haven't, and I'd take WAY longer to do some stuff than more experienced tf leaders. Also, since i don't know, how many does it take to start this one? 8?

Yep. It's an 8-man minimum to run it, heroside only.

It's not difficult unless no one of the team has fly and tp and you don't have enough damage.

I'll be running another one of these later this summer for TF Tuesdays, too. This one is mainly because I have a toon stuck at 42 who needs it anyhow, and I want to see if it's feasible to do it all in one day.

Really? What the maximum then?

Psst! Pro-tip: They added purchasable JetPacks to the Shadow Shard an issue or two ago.

Yes, yes, it is. I did it myself, with a PuG no less! Take another look at that link I gave you earlier.

It works for me, strange.

Sofar it's looking like I should bring my Tank. Unless someone else was gonna bring one then I'll run it with my Blaster.

Fly/TP/Jet pack: All I've ever done the SS TF's with is SJ...... With the Vidiotmap mappack and the zones unmapped, the geysers are the only way to go

My tank has SJ...and gets stuck a lot in the Shards.

Luckily, my emp has fly and teleport friend, so if anyone needs it there will be TPs available.

I'd be interested, and I have a 50 of every AT. Problem is, I don't usually get online until 3-4pm eastern, so that's awfully late for a lot of people. So unless you're starting that late, I'll probably have to pass. =(

ah, that post, no those don't work for me. But the ones he posted *click click* i think, those work fine.

That's because those go to posts that no longer exist.... they just pointed to posts that showed my successes in doing the TFs. I copied and pasted those posts INTO the guide, so that they are not lost forever. So, if you want to see how I did with the Dr. Q... just scroll up.

I've done all the Shadow shard TFs repeatedly, never failed any, and some I've run over a dozen times.

I usually don't use shortcuts (except perhaps the Wentworth's teleporter) and if it needs to be split into 2 evenings, then so be it.

I know your team is already full, but if a second team wants to run this as well, I'm interested and pretty sure I can convince wifey to pop in as well.
