Effective Team

I was in the TF when the guy went out. It was nobodies fault. And yeh we completed it and it was fun.
I dont get where this is goin anyway. This is an MMO where xp and getting to higher levels is the main incentive to gameplay. The obtaining of XP is where the main body of the game is.
If i join a team with a toon -50 I generally want xp. If a team/tf i join is going for badges or doing anything with low or no XP I will decide to continue or leave.
I often let lowbies join me on my 50 tanker and get max xp if they want. This doesnt bother me and I actually like helping people.
And as far as Donna's sig quote I dont understand your problem Saxtus. She pays her money and it is her perogative how she plays and like the majority of players I suspect she wants XP most of the time. Yeh fun obviously rules the game and this is how Donna enjoys the game.

And nice work on turning a light hearted and friendly thread into this.

oops, I meant not accepting invites obviously in my prev post

But nvm ... just remember ppl play by different rules u dont like this put up shut up or leave (harsh but true)

and this.. well if you say people play by different rules and you gotta put up, shut up, or leave.. then why do you start complaining a team did it in 2 hours? They did it by their rules, so i guess you just gotta put up, shut up or leave.

Even when I want xp I'm all for ghosting some TF missions as sometimes after a while it gets too much of a chore, especially on the longer TFs. It all depends on the team as well, if its an AoE heavy team with everybody in the higher lvls of the TF range that can wipe out mobs in seconds, sure, i dont mind clearing. If it takes a while to clear mobs because everybody in team is in the lower lvls of the TF range cause of that "mad xp", I'd rather ghost. Of course that "mad xp" will be kind of disappointing as while each mob on its own will give relatively more xp, it also takes you more time to defeat em.

Second of all, I only think at the lower lvls TFs are the fastest way to lvl. At higher lvls you're better off having 6-man teams farming invinc mishes. Especially on villains, just go to WB and you'll finish a mish in bout 10 mins, getting at least a bar per mish. Heroes is bit harder cause arachnos is much harder compared to longbow. Or I found out the RWZ arcs on invinc are nice xp as well as long as you got good team setups. Like what I got earlier, a duo of stone/stone/GW brute and fire/fire/GW brute (normally we farm WB mishes), combined with a ma/inv scrapper. Or fire/kin troller + ice/cold corr + sonic/rad corr works wonders as well. TFs aint the only way to lvl fast. Neither are 8 man teams, i prefer 6man teams over 8 man teams for faster xp.

As to donna, you can try joining "Teamplayers United" as well, global channel with teamplayers in it so you can shout out there if you are really stuck for a team.

Another one gets the wrong end of the stick again ...

Again im that chan and it is a gd place if ur struggling there are generally ppl around

Also i set out tfs usually 2-3 low lvl in range toon then the rest exemped or -1 lvl of range, this way the lowbies in range can get the crazy xp .. and can sk if really nessecary.
I aggree once u hit 40ish 6 man teams are a lot more productiv that 8 man teams

but again half of this post is another expample of ppl who dont read what is read and rather read what they wanna read and fyi i didnt start the tf( becoz i left before it started)

And the point of all this is...? Reaching 50 in 2 days? An excellent achievement you think, right? Well it is, if you consider the fact that you'll miss probably every aspect of the game and end up begging for members in order to increase the mobs for your farming missions..

Speaking about heroes : Have you ever been to Paragon City lately? Cause teams come and go every day, in every level, but not everyone is looking for PL, as it's a stupid thing to begin with..

Let's face it.. What's the point of levelling up and gaining some abilities if you're unable to use them and understand how they work?

By the way, from level 35 - 45 there are LOTS of things for you to do.. From Task Forces, Story Arcs, even RWZ, but i'm afraid most people who truly enjoy their game don't "hunt" xp during that time, just playing for fun and enjoying their character..

3 things i really dilike the RWZ mish and zones (only reason i go there is for the LGTF)

the story arcs are boring. and dull. and it takes about 75-100 hrs to pl to 50 (im alreasy on 150+ hrs (so i have played some of the lower lvl content. i just dont lie the upper contacts as they are to samey. the SSTFs are two long to really enjoy. So that really only leaves one things and that is farming

Believe me, you don't want to know how many hours i've spent on this game, as it may sound shocking..

The only thing "Boring" about the story arcs and RWZ is the difficulty of some missions, if you don't know your character well, that is.. To be honest, in RWZ i did find something boring when i've finished everything there, and that was Borea's timed missions (after repeating them for a while)

I know how you feel about farming.. Harvesting crops and breeding lots of animals is one of the jobs i dreamed of doing, but i'm living in a big city..

P.S.
My apologies to Donna for writing nonsense to your thread, it won't happen again..

I left a Tf recently (before they started) becoz they were trying to do it in under 2hrs and avoiding 90% of the Xp ... was i impressed was i heck... To lvl u need Xp the more the better.

Well, now I almost regret I never kicked you out of the Hess TF we did in which you compromised to stay for the whole TF and then tried ghosting it because "you had an STF later and as you were 49, there was nothing for you in that TF" although we repeatedly asked you to stay in the group plus it was a TF you asked for in forums and I agreed to arrange it for you. So it seems XP is good for you but you couldn't care less if your team mates also like it or simply want to enjoy a TF team without any rush.

Gah, now I can almost picture J giggling and saying "Night, the kick button is there for a reason"

Edit: Sorry Donna but I needed to let it out. I'll be glad to team with you anytime, I have a lvl 35 troller in Union that has been itching to team for some time.

Hmm... now i sure hope i'm reading this right, as it's already made out im somebody that cant read.. but is that you playing by a different ruleset? And yeah, only said previous post cause iirc it was a manticore team of us you joined once and we wanted to get some xp out of it yet you insisted on stealthing it just like mentioned above.

As for "game is made for getting xp". I disagree there, i play the game for content, getting xp is a nice bonus, i actually READ the missions. I actually like some of the story arcs and each new addition (e.g. RWZ) i try to play the arcs, even if i dont get xp. So different people play this game for different reasons. Play it for mass xp if you want, it aint the only way to play as people try to make out here. Especially saying it is wrong if people state the game aint all bout xp.

Couldn't agree more with you, and you're not the only one who reads the missions by the way..

well as u can see this is a massive difference of opioin and is it my fault i have a short attention span due to my mental health probs ... ummm let me think ... no

u guys all that u do it looks for holes in ppl writting and expliot them its pathetic .... so i might not be a god send but who said i was i certainly didnt .. and rules are there to break ... which i quite frequently do. so in summary u talk [censored] i talk [censored] we all talk [censored] and i have my opinion someone else has theirs whihc were all entitled to. its just sometime u guys tend to force ur opinions too much upon ppl (i know i do at times) but this forum trolling for slatting needs to come to an end as its pathetic.. sometimes i wish kerensky had a kick button. to shut us all up

Just becoz i dont like RWZ doesnt mean other ppl do
its just not my cup of tea.. and if ppl know me i dont like i10 (biggest waste of an issue ever, but thats my opinion im im not trying to force that on others and pls note that)
but the game boils down to xp thats how u gain lvls, but if u like to play (what i think is boring laborious) story arcs thats ur progative. and cuse me for wanting to ditch a lvl 30 TF in favour of smt whihc got me to lvl 50 (my first and note first) yes it was selfish my it was my FIRST 50 ffs

any more of u start and i'll continue this unessacary [censored] becoz i dont back down when someone attacks me verbally. this is a minor form of bullying btw ... and that thread was deleted due to everyone bulling each other.. so bring it. im ready for u guys are u ready for it back.

And to @donna sorry for this thread becomming out of control but there are some major [censored] talkers out here (and im admitting to my part in it and for that im sorry)

As far as i'm concerned, you're the one who's attacking us right now.. Check how many "Censored" words you just used.. That's noble of you, congratulations..

Breaking a rule means trouble though.. Then again, you sound like the type who's ready to accept the consequences.. Keep it up.. You'll end up playing alone in the end.. Who needs teammates anyway??

I find it pointless to continue this conversation with you, as it's a total waste of my time..

Good luck with your farmings, and have a nice evening..

just in replying u have lower urself to apparently my lvl .. well done u remember me to send a congratulatory card to u.. and for ur info i wanst attacking i was defending myself u have some strange delusions really u do.. ur a bit of what i would call an a.r.s.e and before u ask ive already reported myself and all those involved in this. i man enough to take the consequences are u

*Munches on some dramacorn*

Hey Donna i am on your Global if i am on i will be happy to team.
I and dont worry about not remembering me i remember you
