Tonite: Meeting 7.8
Target level: 36ish

The Plan: Start on the 35-40 contacts, finish up any pre-35 arcs.

Chumly - no cheating.

Any thoughts on next week? Going to be out of town myself.

For those unfamiliar with the group, Isolators was started shortly after badges were introduced to the game. This was in the dark, dreary times before global chat, global tells, or even coalition chat. Back then, the only way to find a person from the forums was by chance or pre-arranged meeting.

The Isolators project was started so the people who post here in Victory could actually meet and play together, so that you could have some fun with the people you chat with online. Everyone made a new character for this new group. This is an once a week supergroup that plays every 8 pm Wednesdays.

When the vast majority of the group hits 50, we start a new run of the group, switching between CoH and CoV between runs.

You don't have to be an active forum poster to join, through it's encouraged. At the very least, be a member of the community; run missions, join in advertised task forces, etc.

If you're interested in joining up this run, please feel free to post interest here. Everyone is welcome.

A few notes:
Everyone is welcome.
Not everyone is welcome.
This is an once a week sg. If the group ends up at level 20 at the end of the night, please don't show up next week at level 25.
If you're a few levels behind due to playing less, don't sweat it, but try to catch up on your own or with a task force if you can.
We play 8 pm eastern on Wednesdays.

I'll be there... though I thought my 35ishness was on track.

What do you mean ideas for next week? As in who will make teams?

Oh, duh, it's Thanksgiving next week. Silly me, I completely forgot. My wife and I aren't planning on going anywhere out of town for Thanksgiving, so I think I will be around. I'd probably join in if anyone wanted to do Isos stuff.

Oh snap! It's a Chumly!

BTW can anyone explain to me the Iso base teleporter arrangement?

I can, but it requires a 24 pack of natty light and a needle full of smack.

Then, maybe, just maybe I can channel the logic that went into it.


<sigh> Viv says its no longer "all me".

I was on team quiet/afk last night. I think we had one person go AFK for a good chunk of time in each mission!

Still had fun. DC loves his Nemesis, so I got good mileage out of using Liquefy on those Vengeance-stacked mobs. Sure made things a lot easier when their defense and to-hit buffs went bye-bye while they were in that patch.

And Ninja Run looks quite cool... I really do want that booster just for that. It'd look odd with some characters, but with some, it'll be awesome.

Anyone going to be around next Wednesday? Since a bunch of people are going to be gone, I thought I'd do something to get some merits to the Golden Howler. I'd be up for a Citadel, Manticore, or even an ITF if people wanted. Or I suppose we could run regular content, but I'd make sure not to go over the level range of course (I do love the options we have with that now).

I'll be around next week


Horatus - lvl 50 Fire/Elec Blaster

I can be around next week if enough people are going to be on. A TF sounds great, I can use the merits.

Okay, for those of you that will be around on Wednesday, what TF sounds better? I'd like to get done in 2 hours or a little over, if at all possible. A Citadel can get done in that... could also do a Moonfire. Let me know what sounds good to you.

Sounds like we have three of us for sure, but anyone else can shout out... I will give the Isos people priority and only recruit elsewhere if needed.

I was going to say Nazis! (50 influence to the person who knows that reference) And Council and Cysts belong together Vanum, no worries there. Heh, I had one spawn in on an ambush on a Moonfire a few weeks ago... odd, that.

Okay, so it's looking like we have a few for this... going with Citadel, since no one other than DC shouted out about it. How about we might up by Citadel at the usual Isos starting time tomorrow (8 PM Eastern/7 PM Central). I'm assuming Horatus and Chumly are still in, but let me know if you're not going to be around instead. Anyone else going to be around?

1. Grey Pilgrim
2. Vanum
3. Death Conqueror
4. Bonebaby
5. Toril
6. Chumly (?)
7. Horatus (?)
8. EB (?)

I may be around not 100% sure yet it all depends on what time the guests will arrive. If I am I'll be down to run Cit!

No worries, Ham. I think we had 12 people playing over the course of the night, so it wasn't technically cheating.

Anyway, I'm sure me and DC had xp turned off last night (well, most of it for me... I thought the level range was 37 since I got done earlyish last week and I was 2 bars short... the levels in the SG window seemed to indicate that's where we should be), since we both mentioned it. Not sure how well others did.

It was crazy, though... we suddenly had enough to start two Citadel runs (almost, picked up a few to pad us out to eight on both teams), and then a couple people showed up during the run. Crazy... thought it was going to be quiet, but we turned out pretty busy.

DC's team whomped my team's Citadel time by about 20-25 minutes. Since Voo wasn't there, I blame Enigma Black... it had nothing to do with one of our Scrappers lagging, dropping, and not contributing 100% all of the time at all. At all, I say! *shakes fist* Or DC's team having five Scrappers and a Blaster... yeah.

Anyway, it was a fun night. The Citadel run was nice and smooth, and running through more story arc missions (as usual) with DC was cool too before I left. I would have liked to stay for another mission or two, but I was dragging last night. It's been a long semester.

I don't think I will ever make another resistance based scrapper, not unless they come up with damage resistance recipes with better bonuses. When I'm on my DM/SR I can usually clear entire rooms on Citadel by myself, this time I could barely defeat one mob. Sigh...
