Please add Hatake Ayane (Ninja/Pain MM) to the list. She's currenly only 44, but gaining even one level before Wednesday will be easy. Thanks! Hopefully they roll out the latest Test patch to Live before then, since the MM temp works now....

By request, I did it on my stalker last time, but it turns out it's not really needed because you can click the weapons from outside the doorway.. so I'm there on Robin.

I'll be there with Muse of Destruction, as always. Hopefully I'll be more awake this time.

How do you like your Ninja/Pain MM. I started one too and presently at 20.

It's okay. Mine more heavily leans towards pure Pain with pets, the closest I've come to making a red-side Empath. Once I get her IO'd out, it'll be pretty nice.... Perma-World of Pain and only 5 seconds downtime on Painbringer....

And E, I regret to inform you that I'll be backing out of this. I have to go out of town Tuesday night to attend a funeral on Wednesday, so I won't be around. Sorry.

[/ QUOTE ] I just wanted to highlight my comment here to fix/clarify the detail..

I ran this with Turg a few nights ago and found out that even though the blinkies can be clicked by anybody from outside the little laser room, you just get a "You cannot complete this objective" if you are not an empowered Stalker, so if we don't have one.. I'll bring mine.

Also.. highlighting this for importance:[ QUOTE ]
Please note, this SF ends after the final Recluse Talk (not after the Reichsman mission)

And yes.. this is tonight! See you all there.

Highlights to be aware of for the last room:

[ QUOTE ]
Power of Black Scorpion

Using the power absorbed from Black Scorpion, you can strip Reichsman's dimensional phasing, eliminating his ability to become immune to your teams effects.

Bug! The Mastermind temp power currently has no effect on Reichsman

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Power of Mako

The Power of Mako has maximized your stealth potential, perhaps even enough to allow you to approach the Fail Safe devices.

Bug! The Stalker temp power is not currently being awarded correctly.

[/ QUOTE ]

MB was kind enough to run this with IRON this past Sunday evening, and these were the two factors we failed to consider for the final room, villainside.

1. The stalker temp power may not be awarded correctly, but IMO it's not a deal breaker. It's far more fun to take on those insane 5th Column ambushes while the brute holds Reichsman's aggro.

2. The MM temp power not working IS something to take into account; it means that we'll need strong debuffs to swarm Reichsman all at once. Shivans are one solid way to do this, so if you haven't gotten your temp power for them, it's a good idea to have this in the pocket. My Spider has his AOE -res debuff, but a -regen would be helpful too, and stacking both would be lovely. -slow would also be nice to ameliorate his Phasing recharge.

The 2nd one is where IRON hit the wall: We'd get him to around 50%, see him go Phased, and he's healed back to 90%+ again. After about 30 minutes of continuous fighting, we gave up, and only read the bug notes after doing it.

Ok, Good to know Turg. I've got all three Rad Debuffs on Gabe. I'll get some Shivans tonight before the TF.

I also have Choking Cloud on Gabe, but I'm a pretty endurance heavy build, so I'll need some serious buffing from others to keep up the 2 debuff toggles plus Choking Cloud. I also have 2 leadership toggles, but I sometimes don't run those due to endurance issues on him.

[/ QUOTE ] I guess it doesn't help any that I was using a Corruptor this weekend.

I haven't had any problems with it while actually using my Stalker though. The only part I didn't realize at first is that the power can wear off, and/or you can lose it when you die, so you have to occasionally jump back on the platform to refresh it.. or you'll accidentally kill yourself trying to go into the room.. lol


Anyway, it was a good thing a couple of us did have Shivans on hand or else we might not have been able to damage him enough to offset his phase periods. lol


As for being kind.. you make it sound like I was doing you a favor or something. lol
No. Thank YOU for inviting me along. It felt a little odd being the only one not in your Group, but it was nice of you to extend the invitation in my direction. I'd team with you guys any day.

The door's always open. If you have Teamspeak, IRON's had its own server since the old Teamspeak1 days. I'll pass you the public password if you ever wanna gab with us while we get kicked in the jimmies by Reichsman again.

[/ QUOTE ] Well.. I'm not really one for using a mic, but due to popular demand, I might get into it soon.. who knows. It seems many people on the Monday night runs are using Vent, so I installed it, and might listen in tonight.. If i end up digging out my microphone from my closet... I suppose I'll get TS as well.. but I'm not making any promises. haha

Lol, by looking at my little cheat sheet, it looks like we have 6-7 regulars on Monday nights using Vent. I could field you a whole team for it on a weekly basis... Just sayin......
