8 MMs on a team?

Just a question of curiosity, has anyone tried this?

I know that with two MMs on a team, the maps can get pretty crowded, but imagine three or more Pain Domination regen auras feeding pets on bodyguard mode. I can't believe anyone would put up with 48 pets running around (more if there were some necro/*, */dark, or thugs/*). It'd be crazy with all different kinds, but it gets even stranger if they're all the same summon types.

Can you imagine the chaos if 8 thug MM's all hit gang war at the same time?

8 assault bots laying down burn patches?

16 smokeflashed ninjas... maybe they couldn't all get close enough to the AV?

Oh the possibilities...

Could a team like this complete ITF? How about Lord Recluse's SF? How would a pack like this fair in PVP?

8 MM ITF. The second video. The LRSF has been done with 8 MMs as well.

In similar news I took my team of 6 Thug/Storm MMs on the Imperious Task Force. On the third mission we were on Lag Hill. I summoned 6 Tornados, 6 Lightning Storms, 6 Hurricanes and 6 Gang Wars. The mission froze, kicked us out, reset, and anyone who leveled during that mission unleveled. All experience, Infamy and items that were found on that mission were lost.

They are unstoppable. It very shortly becomes unbeievably boring. I tried running a thugs/* superteam and everyone lost interest very quickly.

24 stacked leadership
8 stacked Gangwar

It was just retarted power. Now with AE you could run open air maps to make spacing better but lag will still be relentless.

I used to run an event called MasterMind Mondays on Triumph. Yeah, mapsize was the only real issue. On cave maps and small buildings we'd split up into two teams of four and clear 8-man spawns. We had the most mixed-bag of toon you'd ever see too and it was riotous fun for sure.

I've heard of 8-man teams of anything/FF defeating everything without the small bubbles running. To be honest 8 MMs with Leadership running is sick no matter what. 25% Def or more, huge damage buffs and EVERYTHING hits pretty much all the time. Stack in the Secondaries and it gets dull fast.

I would like to see an all-MM superteam on the next double xp weekend though. Maybe after we get Demon Summoning...

Polish the video cards though because the graphics are simply killer.

you dont even need 8, ive seen teams of 3 clear entire zones. bodyguard with support is basically unkillable and supression is crippling with all those targets firing at once.

i dont regularly play mms but i remember when the game was new(cov) and my 1st dom got on a 7 mm team and all i had to do was aoe immob and their pets would unload with rains and burn patches etc..
that one team made me roll a bots mm soon after, too bad it stalled out in the 30s.

8 MMs is basically the game turned into mush.

No real challenge at all unless you're looking to 8 man the Hamidon.

the most ive goten was 6mms a dom and a cor at that was on an ae open farm map with lots of ambushes it was the funest thing i ever did. we sat in an area and my freind was on constent agro patrol hed go get another groups constally we sat in 1 spot for 30mins under constan death healing and an agro cap so bad that they would wait at the edge of battle waiting thier turn to die it was pure chaos and not one bit boring

Was in a necro/dark SG once. Had 8 of us on many missions. Was still loaded with a 6600 video card at the time, so it crushed me. I put a teammate on follow, my heal on auto, put out my pets and buffed, then let the team go on. I was getting 1-2 frames per second consistently. I only had to do anything in missions when I get stuck while trying to follow my teammate, which is good since often fights would end about 5 seconds before I could tell.

I've done the 8mm ITF 3 times now, it's "Interesting". I can't recall if I was on the one Smurphy posted.

8 man mastermind teams? Been there, done that. It was intensly fun... Except at the time we'd click "Attack my target" and then everything froze for the 8 of us until either the enemies were dead, or we were. We couldn't use our support powers at all.

I swore my graphics card cried each time we attacked.

I ran an 8-MM ITf once, and IIRC, half the team were Thugs MMs, and there were at least two with Dark Miasma...

You could pretty much have four dual-boxers and still lay waste.

When 8 Thugs MMs summon Gang War at the same time, the servers at NCSoft cry. They cry a lot. Plus your video card will hate you.So much in fact that it will melt.
I've also heard that it also defies all of Newton's and Einstein's laws/theories.






Not saying it's true....just what I heard.

Me and some friends ran 5 thugs/traps in a group.....it was incredibly powerful. With stacking enforcer leadership, our own leadership, our pistol attacks and the FFG everything just melted. We only need a higher difficulty setting, relentless was just too easy.

8 MMs on a tea = Lag Fest!!!!

I've tried it once. I didn't like it. I couldn't really tell what was going on.

However, I've upgraded my computer since that experience so I may enjoy a bit more now....


What's left is to normalize all Assassin Strikes and improve Stalker's old sets (Claw, MA and EM)! You don't need to bring back the missing PbAoE attack. You just need to make the existing ones better! For example, make Slice a WIDER and LONGER cone.

But I like tea....

And it never lags, either

Most of the lag people complain about is their own PCs unable to handle it. Many of those just need to turn a few settings down.
