Team Squishy

Just posting to tell of my experience yesterday as a member of a team consisting of nothing but squishies. Though our team varies occasionally, this was our team for the most part...

Three controllers (ill/rad, fire/ta, fire/?)
Three defenders (emp/?, rad/?, can't remember)
Two blasters (fire/fire, energy/?)
One peacebringer (played for a bit when we had room, stayed in nova and human most of the time)

Despite the occasional death, we were steamrolling through my level 33 missions set on unyielding. Though I was 33, everyone else was 32 or lower.

Who says you need a tanker or scrapper in your team to do stuff? Anyone else had any experiences of a full team of squishies?

Hey, we have the Squishy Squad recently founded in Union, 3 Kheldians (2 WS 1 PB) newly created while our 50 alts are in Defiant (yes, it means no inf for enhcs). It's real fun and the other day we had our first full team faceplant, what a moment to remember.

Frequently. They're fun, and normally fast paced.

As long as you've a basic idea of who's leading and who's managing aggro, they work extremely well.

No AT is an absolute necessity. People make a type of toon for a type of journey though and as long as everybody gets to fulfil the role that they created a toon for, its iced gems all round!


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

Well I remember doing Infernal on a team of 3 trollers, 3 blaster and 1 defender. Needless to say neither all out against the portal or pulling infernal were really any good as options so we ended up having infernals mob take him down confused then could deal with the portal in safety.

Then there was a team of 5 nova form khelds and 1 scrapper - I feel sorry for the scrapper - nothing lasted long enough for him to reach far less attack.

I dinged 50 on my Blaster in an all-Blaster 7man AV battle. Not even any faceplants (although it was Battle Maiden, but we'll ignore that bit ).

Can be very fun indeed, and usually a welcome change to the PuG Tank saying "I herd to here, wait until i say go!"

I've had a few of these teams, and they seem to work well if everyone knows what they are doing.
BTW, is anyone interested in starting an all blaster team?

Ah happy days, I remember Doulos in blaster mode tagging along with all-troller team not having time to get a shot off before big herds of Freaks were wiped out. Hail the pre-nerfed fireball!
Name the date for an all troller TF....
