Arc ID No. 247372
Title: Death by Snoo-Snoo!

Alignment: Heroic
Length: Short (1 mission)
Level: 53

Rogue Amazons have reverted to their old ways of kidnapping men. But this time, they have set their sights on Paragon City's hero population! The unfortunate heroes are not quite equal to the challenge they present.

Are you tough enough to take on these Amazons?

This is a high level (53 only) mission, intended to be a physical challenge as well as being humorous. The minions have been designed specifically to resist attempts to avoid them in melee. It is suitable for teams, and will automatically SK every player to level 50.

Saw this in the Announce your arc thread and had to move it up to the top of the playlist! Great concept and good, quick fun mish!

Really liked the costumes and various powersets of Amazons (Mohawk rocked!). Could add more humor into their bios, tho.

notes:
<ul type="square">[*]In your contact's mission text you colored the first line of the 2nd paragraph when you should have colored the following line, "You need to...free," Normally the colored line of mission text is a one line summary of the mission objective.[*]Wasn't ready for the hot door, was still reading when I was swarmed...thankfully I had PFF![*]The glowie clues are fun, but seem to be on the wrong objects. Body Bag clue would make more sense on the Bones. Bones clue would make more sense on the Coffins. Coffin clues would work better on body bags.[/list]
As for the challenge, it was surprisingly easy for my lvl 50 Fire/Dev Blaster on Heroic. They were all lvl 53, but only 1 boss in the bunch (not that I'm complaining). I'm just not sure what you intended it to be.

***** 5 stars for fun!

I enjoyed this arc. It was humorous and not too long. I'm glad it was one mission, because I think the joke would have worn thin over several missions. I do think there may be too many assorted optional glowies. You really only need one of each to make the point.

The custom mobs were really nice. I liked that they were colorful, as you see so many darkity dark dark custom mobs out there.

A couple of the lines made me laugh out loud, and I have a rule that anything that makes me laugh gets five stars.
