Does anyone have the mission ID arc for the Blue, Red and Yellow Samurais?

You can search by name in the title as well.

If the title of the AE arc includes Samurai, try searching for that.

Yes, I tried that. No luck so far.

It's called Samurai Invasion. I have the number at home. I'll try to remember to post it tonight.

Hmm, is that the one map where Ghost Falcon sends you for his mission? Because I have 330522 written down for it.

This mission is now gone

330552 was still there a day ago... was running it (until my internet connection crapped out) at "count as eight heroes, +1 difficulty", and I really didn't see any reason why it should be removed. (Of course, I'm just looking at it from a player standpoint.)

Just checked and 330552 is now gone, but 322958 is still available.

huh... okay, maybe I'm just dense (always a possibility), but if that was the mission with the red/blue/green samurai who auto-rezzed the first time you defeated them... what would have caused that mission to get pulled? I didn't get a chance to play too much of it before I lost internet connection the other day, but it seemed like a fairly straightforward mission.

could be the author took it down for now to make some changes or something.

330552 has hostages that followed you around and speed boosted and fulcrum shifted you, while using only one weak attack, meaning that they took virtually none of your XP. Probably was considered exploitative, like the bubler allies that showed up in the old Meow Farms.

Ah.... yeah, those guys don't survive long when you run it at "Count as eight heroes, +1 level". It's pretty much "okay, follow me, dude" and then CRUNCH, CRUNCH, SNAP.... oh ****, the NPC is dead because I only held aggro on 17 of the 20-something guys in a group.

I think any mission with more than one friendly buffer is in danger of getting removed.
A mission where you get help from 1 Defender, 1 Tank and 1 Blaster is ok - but if you get help from like 2 or 3 kins, it's not ok

But you need spares, because they can be defeated pretty fast if you're solo farming but you're set for a full 8

Maybe the one mission was removed due to redundancy? The one that's still up has the player buffing hostages and self-rezzing enemies just like the removed mission apparently did.
