All scrapper STF

Posted

I have seen several you tube vids and know about several different themed STF runs. I've seen vids of an all tank run and all defender run. And I know that an all earth troller run was done on my server and I've heard talks of an all blaster run. I've haven't heard anything about an all scrapper run. Has anyone ever been on one or know of one being completed?

Not too long ago BillZ did an all Scrapper ITF, but I haven't heard of an all scrapper STF, if you were to do it on Virtue you can count me in though... as long as my work schedule doesn't get in the way.

I was on an all rad itf a few weekends ago.

I am on virtue as well. That sounds like a plan. Who else wants to be nuts and try it?

I've been on an all scrapper STF, it was a long time ago but I think we did it in under 1.5 hours. Of course we used temp powers such as Katies, nukes, and Shivs to buff/debuff. I was on my Claws/SR scrapper aka the only "healer".

This was on Victory btw

It was done.

I might be up for it. I almost never do task forces and have never done the STF. So I'd be a total newb, in need of instruction, and just along for the ride. But hey, I'm on Virtue, and an all scrapper anything sounds fun. As long as I don't have to stock up on temp powers before it. I think I have some Katies, though. I'd have to look at that section of my power list for the first time and see what I have.

I'm also up for this on Virtue

I ran the All Scrapper STF Enigma Black mentioned. I required everyone to get nukes and shivans as a back up, hoping we could do it with out them.

Much to my surprise, Baracuda wiped the floor with us. It was our first team wipe of the TF, but we regrouped and took her down.

Ghost Widow became an absolute pain. After two team wipes and 30 minutes later on GW I said screw it, and we herded up GW, Mako, Scrirocco, and BS and nuked/shivaned them to death in less than 5 mins.

By comparison, Lord Recluse went down like a sack of potatoes, no shivan or nukes were used. Sarrate tanked LR with his DM/Inv while the rest of the team mauled the towers.

Yeah, I've been on an all Scrapper STF too. It was went pretty well except for a few trouble spots:

1) Silver Mantis wiped us once. (I believe she was lvl53.)
2) There were many deaths on the Patrons, but doable separated. (Mako/BS, Scirocco, Ghost Widow.)
3) We couldn't kill GW without temps. (First fight we used them.)
4) Lord Recluse. *shiver* Took us 1 attempt to learn what not to do, then more 2 attempts to wipe out the towers / him. I Unstoppable tanked him twice during the tower phase. (We used temps here too for to take down as many towers as possible while Unstoppable was up... and the extra regen for me.)

It took us a while to finish (I want to say 2-2.5 hours) and there were plenty of deaths (d'oh), but it was a very unique experience, to say the least! It was far less painful than the all Scrapper Positron I was on. That one was freaking evil.


[edit: Wait, are we (EB / Des) talking about the same STF? *raises an eyebrow* We certainly didn't herd the AVs, I've got demos of those fights. :P Actually, I think I took demos of all the AV fights.]

It's been done. It takes longer because of no debuffs and the fact that Recluse is hard to tank with a scrapper. There's a lot of rushing and dying at the end.

The STF is infinitely easier with either an all Defender STF or all Controller STF.

We started with a full team of 8 (it dwindled to 5 or so by the end). You cheated!

The all tank vid I saw used a lot of shivans and warbug nukes. I'm thinking an all scrapper STF would look simular except with more dps and deaths. Lol

I rountinely run all scrapper Posi's - me and a logged off filler or two. (I prefer set to two simply due to the spectrals being such a pain)

I'd be game for something like this if it was on Virtue. I've run a couple TFs now with just scrappers, tankers and the odd blaster (basically anyone who wasn't support, and was crazy enough to join knowing there wouldn't be any support), they're always a blast.

We tried to be sporting about it and let the mobs have extra help too... The villains, however, were not very sporting about what help they brought.

I think Rieze should try to prove that sig line...

No nukes, no Shivans, just scrappers.

I did an all-rad ITF a week or two ago as well. 7 Rads that time. Perhaps it was the same ITF?

Anyway, I'm on Virtue and I've got a dark/regen scrapper I can add to the mix for STF.

My memory of events must be off. I thought it was Baracuda we struggled on. I'm pretty sure we're speaking of the same STF though.

if it's on virtue i'd be interested as well.

i was part of an all scrap stf a very, very, long time ago and we were stumped at aeon on that one. iirc it was the first all scrap stf scheduled as every other a.t. had done one by that point. glad to hear some groups made it and i'd love another go for pride's sake.

I think we only did one all scrapper STF (according to the IW calendar), we tried dealing with the patrons on the upper right ledge but had some difficulty. Then we did the all scrapper ITF a few weeks later.

The team I was on had a tank. Even though I objected to needing one. He DCed before the last mission and didn't come back before the end. So the last mission was played as it should have been. The leader was Rad Rouge and my alt was a plant/rad troller, Botany Boy R.

I was thinking the same thing. The problem is that for it to be done, certain types of scrappers would have to be needed. I don't want this to be about powersets. Just want to grab 8 scrappers and run. Although, no temp powers no inspirations would be great indeed.
