Statesman's Taskforce

Posted

A group of us decided, more or less on the spur of the moment, to have a crack at doing Statesman's TF last night. I can only sum the final mission up as a lesson in having ones [censored] handed to one. Admittedly the team probably wasn't the best balanced for the task with 5 scrappers, 1 tank, a rad troller and an empath. What do people think the best team for getting through this TF is? And are people interested in organising a more serious attempt at this TF?

Good players > Cookie Cutter ATs.

My first successful MoSTF had 3 Kat Scrappers, 1 ice/ice blaster, 1 Sonic, 1 Grav troller, 1 Rad, 1 SS/invul tank...


hardly Min/Maxxed, and...*gasp* No HEAL0r!!

If you're going for a non Mo Run, and are unconfident, bring Shivans and Warburg nuke temps. Run this every sunday, and i've rarely if ever see a team fail, and the AT mix can be pretty varied at times.

My 2 cents: Have a basic outline for the team, for ATs, but not for sets (and be flexible). Have some buffs, some debuffs, some damage, and a tank to take recluse/inner circle. It's a sad sight to see people on the boat shouting 'needz maor stone tank and empath for STF', when, as shown above, they're *really* not essential

Edit: Looking at that team, you should have been fine

Yep agree. A sonic bubbler is ideal for this task. A /rad greatly helps too, not too mention a good taunting tank. But as Xemulas siad, surprised that you didn't complete it.

The tank, troller and empath should have been able to handle LR easily. And the scrappers should have taken no time at all to demolish those towers.

I'd be interested, Claw. I still need to take down good ol'Recluse in order to get an SG badge.

I'd like another run at this TF on my scrapper (claws/regen). Let me know where and when.

I agree you should have been able to complete with that team, I'm suprised Ghost Widow didn't cause you more trouble

I personally think that team should have breezed through it, but then there are many facors, such as ppl not used to team together, or maybe it was a late run and ppl got tired (amazing how being a bit sleepy can make such a huge difference on this TF as per personal experience), but as has already been said, almost any team playing as a team should be able to do the STF.-

I could bring my fire/kin duo, both should be 50 soon (half a level on one). Or any of my individuals but prefer duo.

2x lvl50 Fire/Kin (duo)
lvl50 Nrg/Dev Blaster
lvl50 Dm/Rgn Scrapper

Working on a BS/Rgn scrapper so that might be in level range... 43 atm. Or if push came to shove I have a Kin/Dark at 45

It'd be interesting to know what happened to cause the failure in the last mission. What stage were you at? You were on LR himself?

I've done STF a fair number of times now and completed it on some of the most unlikely teams. I agree with Xemulas that good players can really help with a successful run.

Good luck on the next run.

Which one? I've played this tf several times, most of them out of SG mode because of the influence needed for filling my toons with IO sets, but I'd like to earn it for my SG now I can play in SG mode again.

That SG badge is obtained through defeating LR but not in the TF, but in the Safeguard Bank Missions. I supose you need a full team with highest diff lvl for that, or maybe not. If the badge is obtainable also through TF, send me a message and I'll inform the people in vidiotmaps, because the only description they have is about CoV: "Badge Info: Defeat Lord Recluse at the end of the Patron Arcs 5 times to earn this badge."

I've been looking for a MoSTF badge since first day available, with no luck. And I've found messages here about preparing MoSTF too late. It's hard to be a badge-hunter.

Agree with Xem, its all down to good team work and this can be done with a wide mix of ATs. Run regular MoSTF runs with a good bunch of regulars and are probably successful roughly half the time for the Master badge. I'm sure we can make a space for you some time soon Fosca.
Like others have mentioned, the team you listed looks perfectly fine for a STF run (with a few Shivs for the tough bits as a maybe)

Hi guys, thanks for your feedback, the team failed at Capt Mako. I think ultimately it was past half the teams bedtime and so things stopped working well.

I am still very keen to do this TF, unfortunately I am a bit busy for a bit. So to give plenty of warning how about Tuesday 8th July at 8pm.

Shout if you want in...
