Hi all,
last night Everest did something VERY VERY wonderfull for us - he spent a few weeks preparing some of his toons so he can help us unlock the Invader Accolade in 1 night.

It is recorded in a seperate thread in this Forum (http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=273958).

Snaps for Everest.

Hi all,
last night Plant and I did the SigArc 1 and 2 back to back.
We were pleasantly surprised to receive the full award table for both Arcs (so I was able to gain 2 A.Mertis in just under an hour).
As it was a first run were were taking our time through the new Arc (#2) so im sure future runs can be much faster if needed.

Not sure how often you can get the full reward table though (1/18 hrs, 1/day, 1/week, etc)?

After that we formed an Apex for the WST.
We completed in 1:04 with an unknown number of deaths (I forget )
It had been a while since many of us had done the Apex so a lot of the little things (and not so little) were forgotten.
Example: It wasnt until late in the Battle Maiden fight that I thought to use Envenomed Daggers to reduce her Regen.
Example: Hovering/flying too far off the ground can make the Blue Swords of Doom impossible to see for others.

I will update this forum with those who attended as I left the screenshot with the toon names at home and I dont want to miss or miss-spell someones name.

And here is the list of awesome characters that helped kick Battle Maidens leather covered butt:

Hi all,
I have been hearing requests for a fully formed Incarnate Team to take on a Master Of Rommy at +4 for the entire TF.

So lets make it happen!!
Requirements = All 5 Incarnate powers slotted (T1 at least).

Thats it

As this is a MO attempt at +4 no non-Incarnate toons will be allowed.
This is NOT a speed run. This is a TEAM so stay together and wortk as a TEAM (no solo'ers running off to do this bit or that bit faster).

This is short notice for this Wedensday (19/10) so instead lets aim for the following Wednesday (26/10) to allow ppl to be aware of it (will add to the Aust Channel MOTD) and also run more Incarnate Content if they need to.

I will be happy to try to get there, haven't got a Master badge yet. Still don't have Lore slotted yet, will that be a problem? Migth be able to get it to at least T1 by next week. I have T3 for the other 3 slots though.

Hopefully see you next week.

Hey MrF,
if you need iXP or Threads make sure you do this weeks and next weeks WST for the NOTW and break them down into Threads.
My Crab Spider had Judgement at ~58% last night and I used about 20 Threads I think (and 20 Mil INF) to fully unlock Judgement. I then burned a NOTW (= 40 Threads) and made a T2 Pyronic (had SOME salvage from actual iTrials ).

Funilly enough last night J-Sonic ran a +3 ITF with some non-50's and we had no problems (my Crab died once when I was scrapper-locked on 3 CIM's and didnt see the ambush from behind and got SMACKED with cascading defense failure. My bad for not staying together with the team (wasnt a MO so I wasnt fully focused). I think all up we had about 4-5 deaths which isnt bad.

But as a MO run we need NO deaths (zero, zip, nada).

fter discussing the proposed +4 MoITF with some ppl in game last night I realised it may be difficult for get a full team (not NEEDED but would be good) of toons with all 5 Incarnates slotted online at that point in time.

So to make it more available but still possible Im reducing the min-req to 50+1 (which means a level 50 toon with a T3 or T4 Alpha).

The more toons with more Incarnate powers will make it easier

Hi all,
tonights +4 MoITF was a resounding success
Done in 1:27 we even had a Purple drop for some lucky *******.

I would like to thank the following toons for the time and effort and teamwork:

Araneae Sicarius (Crab)
Pion Wave (Controller)
Lady Levee (Defender)
Simon Self-Sacrifice (Tank)
Rishathra Robot (Blaster)
Incendiary Chick (Controller)
Mis Chief (Blaster)
E u r e k a (Scrapper)

Congratulations to all of you!

Hopefully next time I will be able to join in the fun.

Hi all,
last night @Hard ran 2 (at least) villain 1st Respecs.
We tried the "Avoid CoT and Kill Vines" approach but by the end I think over 50% of the CoT were dead as we had to ahem "defend" ourselves from their attacks.

After Plant lead a ToT team. We also did the special Halloween Tip mission and took down Eochai in GV.

That was it for me for the night but I belive Jack In Irons spawned just after I logged out.

You are correct, sir! Jack went down to a team of 4 - since we had just done the Haunted House trial - in surprisingly quick fashion. They just don't build monsters like they used to.

Hi all,
tonight the following people helped TinMage Mark II (imagine signing that every day) stop the Praetorians:

Araneae Sicarius (Crab)
Plantatia (Dom)
Radius Prime (Widow)
Phsyconaught (Controller)
Burn and Subdue Dom)
Mis Chief (Corr)
Crabbie Cakes (Crab)
Fivetide (WarShade)

We completed the TF within 43 mins and with 5 deaths (one of which was due to a d/c as soon as that toon TP'd into the AV WW - bad timing).
We barely missed the Hacker badge but got the Army of Neu and Kitt's Got Claws badges.

Thanks to all.

Ohhh wow - its been so damn long since this has been updated.

Well let me recap first to get this thread flowing again:
Initially Wednesdays were for regular Villain-side event started waaaaay back by Lili, Min Min and/or Redoubt (Min Min and Redoubt are gone from the game sadly and Lili has come back but in a limited fashion).
These were run for the SINISTER VG and its affiliates (Coalition VG's). Others could participate however ingame advertising was done via the VG/Coalition channels.

Then @Plantatia started a regular Friday night event also for Villains.
As time went on and things changed the balance of attendance shifted more so to the Friday night events for Villains.
As I also try and organise regular Hero side content evey Monday it became more of a struggle to also arrange Wednesday events.

In addition a shift was occuring moving the ingame channel away from VG/Coalition to the broader 'Australian' channel. This allowed a LOT more people to be aware of things occuring not only in VG/Coalitions other than yours but also across all servers.
However the 'community' feel became disjointed and lessened. The 'channel' chatter slowed down and in the end effectively died off.
There may be some reaons for this such as the failed 'Oceanic Events' channel (so people that dont want to see chatter filling their channel windows can see advertised Events), or when particular persons started some very serious allegations and was doing what can best be described as 'dodgy' behaviour to Channel members - making some feel the need to go away from the 'Australian' channel.


Let me be blunt here: I dont know if anyone even reads these threads. The time I used to allocate to trying to plan events was becoming wasted. Noone would be aware of the event planned here - even when advertised in game people would not turn up and after waiting +30 mins (in case people were running a little late) I (and anyone who did want to do the whatever) would have to do something else.
Is that a major issue? No not really - its not like I get my mind set on doing a (say) LGTF and wont do anything else but that, however after going through the effort to plan/organise and it failing you (or at least I) tend to stop trying as hard, then stop updating the forums, then stop and just do whatever on Wednesdays.

Again things move and change. With i21 Freedom there is a new VIP only Server (Exalted) and the Friday night events run by @Plantatia have moved to Exalted.

Well this is a long story (*cough* rant *cough*) hahaha.
Basically Villain Wednesdays has come to a standstill and I dont have the energy to keep it running.
I will still be online on Wednesdays however wont be arranging anything.

Last Wednesday we ran the Numi WST as the Villain WST (Ice Mistral) will be repeated again in 2 weeks time (as there are more Hero TF than Villain SF).

Thanks to everyone who took part in the SINISTER Wednesday events over the past years - I look forward to gaming with you no matter the day of the week

Nooooo!
Metacore not organizing Wednesday events? This cannot be!
checks outside, the stars and planets are out of alignment, dogs and cats are lying together, rioting in the streets
YOU MANIACS! LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!!!!!!

*cough*

Seriously, for all that you have done, Meta, thank you. I know we will find someone to organize events. But we will miss your efforts.

Thank you very much for organising the Wednesday evenings. I really appreciate all the effort both you and Plant go to. I have not been able to get on as many Wednesdays as I would have liked, but will continue to try.

I too have noticed a lack of posting on the forum and in Aus Channel.

i22 is coming!!!!
Wednesday (approx 7am lol) Sydney time.
Like most of you I will have work during the day but as soon as I can get out will be logging in to make my new Dark/Mind DOM (already got the name reserved and costume done haha).

Where in the world is Metacore?
Well Im right here actually (droll).

I have been missing from the worlds of CoV/H for a few days of late (since last Friday) due to house-sitting with no Internet access.
I am due back home this Friday/Sat.

Im not sure how much gaming I will get done as I will have company this weekend but Im planning on showing my gf the game and she seems... intrigued by it (maybe im being overly hopefull that she may want to join us Superhores/Villains ).
Good thing I have a laptop she can use for a F2P account.

Anyway looking forward to some OMGXP runs on my new Dark/Mind dom (just got to 27 and 3 slotted my AoE Hold which LOOKS awesome (visually - although the purple tone I used may need to be tweaked some).
