Well my MM on defiant is nearing lvl 20. Not the best AT for pvp but it sounds like it would be fun to come along.
My MA IDs:
Fiend Space: 211464
I'd like to see a 6-man stone tank group take you lot on, the ensuing battle would finish off what Sunfire missed out 
Heh, taking my level 20 scrapper to Siren's tonight, to see how quick I get taken down. I respec'ed my blaster as well Stalk-o-bot, I have to face you again sometime

ok lets start from this.FYI the brutes will be cannon fodder.We had 2 kinetics. considering a coordinated spiking on the brutes well end drainage taking granite out and the rest is history while the brutes hit thin air against the combined flooring of acc from rad/dark and hurricane...thats horror. Add to that the terrors...uh well u see what i mean....
Now lets get to this team...
I made a demo....let me just give u some example times...a brute that came in our path...uh more like we came in his cause i team tp the team on the brute..was torn to pieces with full shields up in 4 sec....a stalker that tried to attack and flee..uh was insta held..popped a break free and was held again....
So since i liked the idea after i put it to work..we will set up a league of evil and issue a challenge to all villains on defiant to come take us down ...the team consists of 8 controllers....so any daring villains out there can come and feel the power unleash from the squishies.....we ll try assemble this team tomorrow so if u feel daring enough..pop in sirens tomorrow..
Btw i made a demo of this i think i ll post a short video about it..
I'll be there, day or night?

somewhere around afternoon if all goes well
Where? Preferably Warburg, I'd like to have a go with me blaster, for a laugh in a "HA HA, I killed my Sim!" kinda way
Almost sounds boring. I know I hate it when there's no challenge
Good luck on finding a team to take em out
Lets get this right you are challenging us against a team, including 6 Controllers when you know we will be lucky if a single Dominator even enters the zone and that 99% of the opposing force will be either Brutes or Stalkers. As Gandrel above said good luck in finding anyone whio can be bothered to fight you.

Its not an unbeatable team by any stretch of the imagination, a team of flying spines stalkers would whittle down the numbers very quickly indeed as would a bunch of corrupters who can concentrate on a specific target fast enough, couple of tar pits, ice rains would make things difficult too etc etc. I am personally hoping that a large number of villains comes and makes it really quite hard if not impossible for us, its (to me) an exercise in gagueing effectivness of such a team and seeing what weaknesses can be noted, this team is just a bit of fun but you never know when somoene may make such a team and experience and lessons learned is a valuable thing. So hopefully the good natured people who normally haunt defiant in Sirens Call will come down for a dick about.

If I was over on Defiant I'd have brought my Dominator out.
Pitty I'm not.
Oh certainly its not impossible. Just takes the right set of people or a vast army of the wrong ones. Like Paradoxia said and i fully agree, is that it will be hard to find the right people to do it seeing mostly stalkers/brutes enter PvP.
Sorry I'm being a pessimist this morning. I'll go away 
For the record i hope the villains do succeed in this. I'd even bring my lvl 22 domi along but unfortunately I can't play at peak hours

First of all why u start whine again? The reason we issue this fun challenge is exactly to gauge interest for a variety of villain AT's so it get interesting instead of tearing apart inexperienced stalkers. Second of all the team will be 8 controllers. Third of all i dont seriously think there is anything capable of taking this team down except one specific combo. Even spiking teams with corruptos dont stand a chance or people laying tar patches and debuffs like this for the simple reason that this team has the ability to kill range faster than the snipe actually activates and also because the it can get out of debuffs like tar patches really fast with no problems. As for dominators...even a team of 8 dominators is nowhere near the abilities of such a team. Add to the factors that is team will be packed with some of the best pvpers on Defiant...well that one handful...so number superiority will be the only thing possible to maybe do something against such a team.....now consider i am plannign a specific combo of controllers in there like 2 empaths 1 ff 4stormies and 1 kinetics....well all i say is u prolly need at least 3x8 villain groups to start thinking there is a chance....and this is me being optimistic.
The way I'd tackle such a team would be a bunch of corruptors playing with stacked leadership toggles and extreme long range snipe tactics.
I might also give an eight man robot mastermind long range wave attack plan a go, in a sort of robotic equivilent of the Battle of the Somme. No idea whether it would work or not, but would certainly be entertaining.
Given as I have no masterminds, and my only corruptor is currently very much a PvE build I shall not obviously be able to give either plan a go.

Hmm I seem to be somewhat excluded from this little escapade as my troller is a Grav/Rad

What combo were you thinking of? If I had 8 of my stalker there it would be a thing of beauty, paired up, co-ordinated impaling and 4 dead controllers in the first strike (yes I know you (we ) have CM but we would be high in the sky before our swoop ) *sigh* I need more flying spines stalkers to team with

8 masterminds would be awesome IMO, sadly as the servers NCsoft provide are, how shall we say, less than impressive, it could be like another Hami raid )

Mine is already in the works, be another week or so before he's high enough to be decent though
I'm assuming this will be taking place in Sirens? I'd say it will be fairer *cough cough* if it is... no pets

i actually meant 1 rad but typed in a bit of hurry
Hmmm an 8 spines combo would be maybe the biggest pain for such a team. Its a spiking team far more dangerous than the corruptors due to low animation times and the amount of damage. The storm mists and healing blankets could provide some solution however it would be hard. I was thinking the spines team as well boty.However it wouldnt be 4 dead controllers on 1 strike you would have to focus on 1 maybe 2 at a time and i think the rest 6 can easily team wipe the stalkers.
Zeph we dont have pets in Sirens except the ill trollers
Also 8 masterminds vs 8 controllers would be a really good match but the balance favours against the trollers again. Simply because a run of the stormies around the pets floors the accuracy while the rest take out the MM's...As we also saw last night PFF hiding MM's take the amazing time of 5 sec to die....However the server wouldnt stand such a battle...

You know Q i would give u 5 stars for this post but i have given u these 5 stars already way back almost a year ago so all i will say is ROFL!
I know you're all heroes, but what if you'd fight against a team of blasters? They excel in ranged damage, no?

True..BUT!
This team packs at least 3 tp foe carriers and also team teleport which means it kills range faster than the blasters move...Add to that that the stormies will be running around the blasters killing their acc....the rest is carnage imagery..for the same reasons corruptor teams cannot do much also...

1x build up and impale = -50%+ health hence in teams of 2 with build up and impale synchronised is what i was thinking

Hmmm sounds good but consider the 4 steamy mists and the force field buffs...i dunno cause i am not good with numbers...meh
Today in Sirens Call I was a part and party to the most unfair and abuse of powers I would have ever imagined possible in the PVP areas. The imbalance was so much that I have dubbed our exceedingly unsporting group the League of Evil
say if you are interested and maybe TG can set something up (You already must have known he was largely responsible for our banding together 
)
The scene is this, Sirens Call, monday evening and Control-obot just joined up with 6 other PVP controllers containing no less than 3 storm controllers. Combined we laid waste to all villains unfortunate enough to cross our path, Brutes died in seconds as our feeble solo damage when combined was farcically powerful.
Now a team of one specific AT is a thing to behold and can be insanely powerful but I cant really imagine any other AT specific team/teams being a patch on our troller squad
I would like to try and organise a time on Defiant in Sirens call and get as many Villains as possible to try and take on this rather specialised team
