How does this looking for group thing work again?

Okay, I should note here that I suck at putting together groups. I honestly don't like the process, but damned if I can figure out a better way. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good group as much as the next guy, but recruiting for one? Forget it.

Anyway, I figured if I was going to do this, I might as well try and snag up some folks I know as much as I know anyone in this game, and so I come to you, the fine denizens of the Virtue forum.

My hero main, Modern Samurai, has worked his way through the "Saving a Soul" Carnie arc on his own, pretty much to the end. However, his one weakness is psionics. As a katana/regen scrapper, he has no psi attacks, and little defense against it. So the third appearance of the Madame of Mystery in that arc is a formidable challenge for him. Despite multiple attempts, for whatever reason, I can't get Modern to do more than budge her health bar. And she just stomps him good. Granted, Modern takes a lot of stomping, for a scrapper, but she can dish it.

So, before I put a fist through my screen in frustration (especially bad idea, as I use the very same screen for my computer as for my TV and Xbox 360) I decided to recruit help. Modern's low-to-mid 44, the mission is level 43 or 44, and I'm looking to set up a date to do this. I don't have any particular requirements as to when, though obviously the evening is preferable during the week. I don't demand a full team of eight - even if there are only one or two more interested parties I'm willing to make a go of it. It's just that this time, I think even Modern, the epitome of crazed scrapperhood that he is, would admit that the situation calls for some backup.

So... any takers?

Don't have anyone in that range at the moment but would be happy to exemp someone. I'll offer up my Claws/WP Scrapper who has really good psi def and res or my Emp/Psi Defender who can stack Clear Mind a few times on you to improve your psi res as well as keep you healed. Let me know which you'd like and a time and I'll help you out.

I have a 42 BS/Shield scrapper I could bring along, might be 43 by the time we do it. She can take a psi hit or two.

Bring an Exemplar for my original main.
Nothing chews up Carnies like Archery and confusing accents.

I ran into the same problem but with Nosferatu... I solo 99% of the time outside of my Tues/thursday morning static team and I just could not take that bugger down alone with my dark/dark scrapper. Ok, 2nd of 3 deaths before I gave up and sought a team was total stupidity, I forgot to re-toggle my defenses before rushing back in from the hospital. *sigh*

Anyway, after the 3rd death I gave up and let out a couple of B'casts asking if anyone had a few minutes to spare to help me take the freak down and drag him back to the Zig... I spaced the B'casts out fairly well and on the second I got 2 volunteers and we were able to take him down pretty easily.

I find people B'casting LFT over and over annoying and so I generally refuse to do so but in this instance I spaced out my B'casts, I was limiting myself to 3 total anyway and if I didn't find help by then I would have just left it on back burner til I made another level or two. In the B'cast I stated I had cleared 90% of the map so it would be a very quick lend a hand situation and once done I thanked the two who were kind enough to lend that hand.

So, help is out there if you need it and are patient. Even in off peak hours.

I have an Archery/MM 45 blaster who loves to take down the Carnies. Hit me up when ever you need the help.

Outstanding. When I get on tomorrow I'll /gfriend you guys to see when you're on so we can knock this sucker out. Also, if there's a good time (like this weekend) that we can meet up, I can make it happen. Absolutely any time is good for me this weekend - biggest thing I have going is I need to do laundry.
