Synapse TF with Pilgrim, Thursday Night at 7 PM
Anybody, anybody? What do I have to do, make this themed? Electric powersets only? Darn Penny and Ham, trying to come up with cool themes and stuff.

Good run! Had a few deaths when someone jumped in over their heads or "lag" occurred ( ), but we got done in 1:38. Large amounts of damage plus a little bit of debuff seems to help out with Posi and Synapse. At least in their current incarnations.
Thanks for the stealthing, Des, and thanks to everyone else for coming along. I apologize for being a few minutes late again.

Thinking back on it, that "weird lag" happened twice during that Synapse TF. The first time, none of you noticed because everyone exited the mission. I kept hitting the mission exit button, but I couldn't leave the mission. I was eventually pushed out when you called Synapse. Second time was when the deaths occurred. Yeah I was pushing things but I had lots of skittles and Dark Regeneration at the ready. I must have hit DR 5 times and it wouldn't go off.
Starting to think it's a problem with my mouse. It wasn't "true lag" as I could still move around and I could see the damage Death Shroud was doing. Folks on Vent got an earful of my profanity though...sorry about that.
Hmmm, weird. I mostly use my keyboard to activate powers. I will use the mouse from time to time when a power isn't easily reachable for me or I need to activate something. The weird thing that happens is that sometimes the game acts like I'm always pushing down the control key, so then I have to start using my mouse to activate powers in the first tray. Kind of annoying, too, as I usually put my slower recharging powers in tray two. Nothing like hitting Dull Pain when you just wanted to attack.
It seems to happen when I have a lot of lag, too. It never happens with any other game or application on that computer, so I can only assume it's something with CoX. Not sure if it's something similar to your mouse thing, or what. Probably unrelated, but I share your pain with weird hardware issues.

Hey all, I'm slowly working on the TF Commander badge (on a Blaster this time, gasp!), and Synapse is one of the last two needed. I actually have time to fit in a Synapse during the week, but mainly if I get started right away. So, I'd like to start out with part or most of a team right on time. I'll be starting this off (hopefully) at 7 PM Central/8 PM Eastern/5 PM Pacific. Who else wants in on helping me crush all the silly robot thingies?
