Master of 5 SF

count me in i cant bring my fire/rad, or my mind/ice dom or ice/elec dom or nin/nin starlker all are fully IOd and hybernoob on the builds

A recent call up for me, is forcing me to cancel for the current time. Setting a tempory date for Oct 22 at 12 am EST.

Hopefully you'll be able to pick a different time/date, as I'll have to bow out if you aren't STARTING until midnight in the middle of the week.

October the 22nd works for me, again depending on the time. 12AM is in what time zone? And my simple mind keeps confusing AM, PM, noon, and midnight. Is 12AM midnight or noon?

This is set for 12 midnight eastern time, to help with our west coast guys

I will be on 11:50 pm EST Wednesday to begin the invites.

...In that case, I have to bow out. There's simply no way I can start a long TF at midnight with work the next day.

Good luck.

Grog and I were really lonely waiting around at Barracuda last night.

I hope everything is okay Mylia.

Yeah a few things came up and screwed my my sched(mainly the entire day). Sorry bout that I will be around the next couple days though.

HUB did a Master's run last night. Things went smoothly until the nigh-infinite ambushes began. Those seem to be the sticking point to a successful completion. Has anyone won the MBSF yet? How was the stream of Nazis dealt with?

In my opinion, the safest way to do this mission:

Step 1 - Clear the mobs to find Black Scorpion.
Step 2 - Clear everything on the way to each of the other Patrons.
Step 3 - During/Before the final Patron fight, someone with Recall Friend needs to get to either the entrance or the Dead End that has the stone wall enclosure - typically the area where you find Ghost Widow. (Explanation: This will keep the ambushes coming from 1 direction while they are spawning.)
Step 4 - Everyone get buffed by the machine (except the Recaller).
Step 5 - Everyone except Recaller stays on Reichsman until the ambushes start. Once they start, Recaller gets everyone out as fast as possible in order of most to least squishie. (With a Stalker on the team, you can spam the failsafe glowies to keep the team safe. You won't need them later.)
Step 6 - Stay in the enclosure with the Brute(s) taking the hits until the abushes stop. They do stop eventually. You're basically dealing with the entire map being respawned and aggroed onto the team.
Step 7 - Once the ambushes stop or slow down to a manageable level, work your way back to the final room, clear out the 5th column, and take down Reichsman.

If you want to skip step 4, you can, but the Dom/Corr combo kill is pretty useful for the ambushes.

I am more than happy to give this a try on my plant dom. Lets try to set it up again.

I made some modifications to the strategy above. After running the SF tonight, I was reminded that the ambushes don't really start until Reichsman takes ~ 5-10% Damage. Once the ambushes start, the team is most safe being in the "foxhole" until the ambushes slow to a trickle.

If you guys end up with a more user-friendly time (i.e. not midnight, mid-week), I'd love to still help out with my Widow... He needs some Mo5SF goodness!

HUB is running a series of Master attempts. So far, there've been several MITFs (almost always successful), a few MSTFs (slightly less successful), one MBSF (failed), and no MLRSFs or MKHAAAAAANN!!TFs yet. The MBSF will probably be our next attempt; TF nights are Tuesdays and Thursdays starting at 9PM EST. If you're already a member, you know how to sign up. If not, shoot me a tell here or in game, and I'll see if I can hook you up.
