Put Silver Mantis into Sharkhead Isle

Well, the title says it all, doesn't it?

Basically, from what I understand, I6 introduced both City of Villains and bases, so I guess it's not surprising there will be a City of Villains Strike Force contact that requires a base to use. It's a reasonable idea, after all, on paper, anyway.

In practice, however, it's just a needless hurdle. While it is easily enough to join a super group with a fully-outfitted base, I don't see why that should be a necessary. You see, I like soloing and I like being basically a freelance villain on the Rogue Isles, so I have very little interest in joining super groups. None of the little conveniences of super groups and bases are enough to make me want to join any.

I also like Strike Forces, though. There's something about their feel that makes me want to do them every so often. Most of the time this works out out perfectly, too, but when it comes to the Silver Mantis Strike Force, well, I trust you understand the dilemma. Either I would have to rely on a team-mate to have a functioning base, but that's a gamble and I would just risk annoying the team I make when it turns out we can't do the thing we set out to do, or I need to join a super group I have no interest in participating in just to use their base, and franky I just consider that dishonest.



tl;dr: Why make it so that you need a base to do the Silver Mantis Strike Force. That's silly, just put her on Sharkhead Isle so everyone do it regardless of their super group affiliation.

ive seen people in the global chat channels trying to form this sf that dont have a base, but i understand where your coming from on this one.

it is kind of annoying to get people and organize what sg base your going too, but if they didnt have that then there would almost be no point to having an sg mish computer, unless the cathedral of pain trial was returned at some point

I know some people just like you dude who don't bother with VG's. As fleeting mentioned, they just make their own, like any villain in the comics that has their own little hideout. Do it up! All your base will belong to you!

I'd actually go the other way: Put more content into the mission computer so that it's actually worth having one.
