Weekly Fire/Rad Goodness!
Nuclear Fyre here... it took us a mish to gel well as a team and we ventured forth from there. I cannot speak for everyone but I had a good time, went up a level, and even ended up having a few recipes to sell off.
I may not be around for next week's adventures due to the whole real life thing.

Real life suuuuucks!
If we have two teams again, I'd suggest a casual, come-and-go Radio team, or similar non-TF team, and a TF team.
I keep thinking I still haven't run the second half of Posi, but it was that damn dam that made the whole High Visibility Suit thing come to being.
And besides TFs there are also Trials. I don't need the respec, but I do dig the respec trial.
What do you guys think?
It has been so long since I've tried this - are we still able to bring in multiple teams into a mish? I'd love to see if we could have two of them, in a mish set to 8 players, at plus 4, PI Bank safeguard, and take on one of the signature AV's. Just for the fun of it . But that would have to wait for a couple weeks as I'll be out of town the coming Monday.

Sounds like a good idea.
Well, we chewed up Midnighters. We only had three deaths all attributed to separation from the group. Mine was because I went afk and an ambush spawned on the other side of my safe location.
Lady Jane didn't die, though it made no difference. And now we can all get into the Midnighters club, woot. No screenshot, I wasn't thinking about it. |

I just saw this post, I know I live under a rock when not organizing TT reloads or running a raid or two on Justice, but I wanted to say Fire/Rads Super Groups are insanely fun to run on. I was part of the F'rads on Freedom a few years back and the experience is just plain crazy! I'd encourage anyone/everyone to get out and check out this experience. If I can, I'll try to drop by one of these Mondays. Take care all and keep the Fire/Rads burning!!

I was relieved of my previous position for telling the truth. Now I make my living translating the lies of other men.

Fire/Rads are a blast, and a unique experience to the game. I'm going to dust off my old 50, Disko Inferno, and meet up with you guys tonight.
Do you guys ever use the Team TP strategy on your teams? I was dubious at first, but it is quite efficient, though it can be a little disorienting to the riders.

Or am I not understanding.
[Also, I think I do have rec friend on my toon, but maybe not as I respecced her to get rid of some crap I didn't need and make her tighter, meaner, burnier.]
Re: Tonight
I don't know what anyone thinks would be fun, or if anyone trusts me after we all slammed into the walls at 8x AM in Citadel, but if we have enough 25+, doing some Ouro would be cool. I've rarely done any flashbacks besides the fortune teller one for the...uh...cant' remember the badge.
That would qualify as a come-and-go. I'd have to check on what TF's that Kaylee lacks. Also, I haven't really done many Trials. I'd just like to avoid things with rooms with multiple levels. Catwalks really don't mesh with our powersets.
We usually burn everything in our way, never stealthing a mish. Though if we do ITF, which I'm hoping we'll do as soon as some of the lower toons get on up, I don't think we'll burninate the whole map.

For most teams, it's useless and counter-productive. For a FRad team, it's a beast in later levels. It gets everyone in melee together, and keeps the team tight for Aura, AM, Hot Feet, and Choking Cloud. Nothing is quite as fun as porting the entire group into an unsuspecting mob and telling them "Hello, you're held by 8 Choking Cl-, oops, you're dead."
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSoR7nq6b_g for a video of a group of 7 doing it to absolutely destroy the Final 4 on the STF in less time than most groups can take out one.
I don't know if either of Disko's builds has it currently. One is for normal team play. The other is for all-FRad teams, but it probalby has Group Fly. Another power useless on most teams, but awesome on Frads when combined with TTP.
If there is interest, I can try to respec to TTP.

I never thought of that. I always just thought the power would be useless. I think it would work for a group of scrappers too.

Well, I was on the respec team.
We started by having the big octopus beat the living dog dirt out of us, on purpose, on the way to our contact.
I had forgotten how not-really-great the mission structure of the Terra Volta Trial was. We did get to do some good burninating in the offices in KR, but, yet again, multi-level rooms are the massive weakness of a frad.
Back into TV for the big showdown. We forgot to bring hammocks for the reactor room. Disko was timing how long things lasted and had our AM timing so we could hit it right before an attack. Well, we missed the last one.
We only had deaths when someone got separate or Leeroy Jenkinsed it.
I didn't have screenshotui = 1 so we get no names. But my lame memory for names means we get partial names.
Left to right: Greased Wheels, Kaylee Foxtrot, Disko Inferno, Josh [...], Gyro[...], and Marsil Oberon.
[edited to add - and Disko's outfit is totally invisible when viewed in low light from behind. Time to make a high visibility mode suit.]
Yep. Two teams again.
And yeah, Lusca handed us our *AHEM*.
Mostly because the first tentacle aggroed was one in a big cluster (whoops). At this point we lost one of our 6 members and I crashed out.
Anyhoo, we had more than one team again this evening. So we split high and low. As usual, I grabbed the lowbies and actually brought along a ringer in the guise of a Fire/Kin. It made for a slightly different dynamic.
Oh yeah. And I need to stop acting like a tank. If I could survive the aggro, cool. But in some cases my health bar heads left at hypersonic speeds.
It's something like "ATTAC*DEAD!* JEEZE!"
Anyhoo, we took group two on a Posi1 at +0x8. We had a few deaths, but nothing severe (other than a VERY near TPK because someone (not me this time!) forgot about the ambush in one mission).
On the last mish, we didn't do half bad. The first mob was positioned further back in City Hall and it made it easier to get in and get set up to fight. We wiped both mobs upstairs with nary a problem. We then went downstairs and proceeded to melt 8 shadow clones in under a minute.
