Not a one...
The hard things I can do--- The impossible just take a little bit longer.
If numbers are so much more important than a teammate who is fun to play with, forget about the game altogether and go play with a calculator instead. -Claws and Effect-
I wont be moving any tanks. I will however be moving a brute or 2 to blue side.
*readies fire extinguisher*
I will probably be moving my Inv/Ice/Ice Tank over, but that's also because he was kind created in either a moment of Genius or pure insanity (or some combination of the two) so to me it feels like he could just lose it mentally and start being villianish, and have moments of clarity and be good, or he might just get more harsh in his ways of dealing with things. I haven't decided that yet, but I know he has a cool villain costume already!
I have a dark/dark tank that I haven't been able to get out of the 30s. He dies too much to be any kind of alpha tank. I think he might move redside, where there is less focus on protecting the squishies and more bashing.

I'm not an expert or anything, but perhaps this could be improved if, oh, I dunno, maybe if Silver Mantis actually existed on a map somewhere? Why is this the only TF/SF that requires 1) a VG, 2) a mission computer/oracle 3) if not all-VG, the VG needs to allow the leader's teammates in the base. No other force/trial/raid has requirements like that - do they add any value to the SF at all?

Well, it is what it is, if these are insurmountable issues then I am sorry you feel that way. That doesn't make it any less fun for me and I consider the 42 merits a good value. The last Mantis I ran was for an all VEAT event and I only had one VG mate with me. I don't see the big deal. I would guess if you got the improvements you ask for it would be speed run and merit nerfed like most everything else. So maybe they do provide value by preventing that from happening.|

Does spending 3-6 hours (or who knows how long) running around the Shard add value to those? Does having to complete a story arc to gain access to Cimerora(SP?) add value to the ITF? Does having to be lvl 45 add value to a Lady Grey? The value is a fun gaming experience that requires a couple things to do. I guess I just do not see the things you listed as brickwalls to playing this content.
If a certain set of requirements means there is a hidden gem of content in the game, maybe that's a good thing. Maybe having everything be as easy as possible to do cheapens the experience of doing those things. People are just missing out on good content for silly reasons.

The title should be Which Brute will you take to the other side?
In which case it'll be my stone/stone.

Pretty much this. I find heroside ATs about as fun as snorting caltrops, so I'll probably be making all my villains Rogues so I can play on both sides. |

Villain ATs on high-merit blue content = Happy Silas.

I'm not taking any Tanks to villainy, or even going halfway in-between. Backstory is a big thing for all of my characters, and none of my Tankers have the backstory to do it. I do have a few characters that I may play around with it, though.
