Arena Badge Collection, Sign Up

Hey Champ,

I'm proposing a scheduled time for those badge hunters out there to get a select few badges that can be difficult to achieve on their own. This, as the title states, are the arena pvp badges that lead to the accolade "Arena All-Star".

Note: This is not a pvp event and will not be treated as such. All listed matches will be unrated. However, for those of you who want to after all is said and done, I encourage everyone to stick around and have some fun.

I will write a quick description on each badge that can be earned, and feel free to check out badge-hunter.com or the wiki for a more detailed summary:

Arena Victor - Win an arena match. (I believe this one can be earned for just winning any type of match.)

Arena Duelist - Win an arena duel. This can be done quickly between a 1v1 in the arena with a "last man standing" as the objective. If someone can't be paired up during the designated time, I'll stay to let them win a match against me.

Arena Survivalist - Win a Free for All Match. This can be done with the same scenario as Arena Duelist.

Tournament Victor - Win a Swiss Draw Match. This badge will require 8 people to start. Unfortunately, this can take some time as only one person out of the 8 will receive the badge. However, I believe the quickest way possible is to let the winner live while everyone else free for alls on each other.

Pentad Victor - Probably the hardest of the 5 to get as it is very tedious. It requires one type of each AT in a pentad/septad match. This means a team consisting of 1 scrapper, blaster, troller, defender, and tanker to go against another hero hero team with the same match up, or villain team with one of each respective ATs. This will be 10 ATs in all, or 14 for the versus pentad which CAN include epic ATs. No way getting around this one in a simple way. Accommodation will require people to switch to a respective AT to fill the team's gap.

So there you have it. All 5 arena badges that can be accomplished in one night. Some of you may even find it fun to participate if you have never entered the arena before. I'm currently 7 badges away from what I consider a full collection, so I'm adamant about getting this started soon-ish.

Setting aside time myself for Thursday, May 6th which allows a week for reschedule and time for details to be hammered out. With switching, loading, and finishing fights, expect this badge collecting event to run 2, maybe 3 hours.

I'm going to set up a sign up list to make sure at least 10-14 people will show. Of course, if there's more than hopefully there's no worry about not having enough people.

Leave a global name and possible higher-level ATs you can bring.

Edit: forgot to add a time, but thinking around 6pm EST. Can easily be changed according to schedules. We will meet in Pocket D.

I can bring most AT's for the pentad event, to fill in. This will be 3pm pacific time, Wich might cause many west coast players not to be able to participate. I can show because I work early enough, to get off in time to be there.

I can bring a Scrapper or Brute to fill out the pentads, possibly a Defender or Controller depending on the level it's set to.

I'd be in for this. My badge character is a Scrapper and I can bring other hero ATs as needed.

edit: Global is @Jak O'Lantern

I work until 7pm Pacific time so doing this is problematic... however I am taking May 10 and 11 off so if you reschedule for then or even do this a 2nd time, I will be able to participate...

I have 1 hero and 1 villain I need these badges for.

Unless this was fixed, Pentad Victor doesn't require one of each AT on each team, just requires one of the same AT on each team. I'm not sure of the settings, i'll have to check it out and get back to you.

My badger is my Dominator. Need most all of these bages (haven't badged in awhile) but realy only interested in the ones requiring a team, the 1v1 capable ones don't need to be scheduled.

@Mezzey / 50's can bring for filler: Brute / Tank / Widow / probably 50 DS MM by then

I can bring another play account if you need more bodies - 50's: Brute / Corr / Troller / 41Scrap / Brute of every mayhem level except 46-50 i.e. 6/11/16/21/26/31/36/41/lowbie Stalk; don't think me or my bud have any play toons left on our shared "Market PvP" account but I could check if you need a third account to fill.

Compiled list:
1. @Orion Zidane - all hero ATs. MM, brute, SoA on red side.
2. @MindRipper - Blaster and/maybe Dominator is what I am interested in bringing.
3. @Jak O'Lantern - My badge character is a Scrapper and I can bring other hero ATs as needed.
4. @Mezzey - Dominator

I'd be interested. My main is a dominator.

To help others, I can provide every villain AT as well as a 34 tanker, a 28 scrap, or a 23 blaster.

@chicagodoodler

I'm game. @Cobalt Azurean

@cherry-2000


being as im an emp on my main badger, this is a nice thing.

Assuming I'm remembering my work schedule correctly, I'm game because I still need arena duelist and arena survivalist on my widow (plus all the weights if you're doing those). For the others, I can fill with whatever is needed.

Zube needs the Tournament Victor badge. I have all the others, but I'll help anyone else get them as long as I gets the one I needs.

@Zubenelgenubi

Zube is a blaster, but I can bring other AT's as needed. What time are we talking 'bout?

Just verifying, I will be there barring emergency.

I would like to get in on this for my badge ***** Frostyblue she is a ice/ice blaster level 50. My global is @Frostyblue


Crap just saw it was Thursday, I have to work Thursday, have to withdraw sorry ((((

I'm game, and will be there as close to 6pm EST as possible.

Badge characters are Scrapper (blue) and Dom (red), see sig. Have a variety of others to bring in on both sides if/as needed.

The earliest I can attend is 6:15-6:30, and I may be later as I'm in the central timezone and 6:00 EST is still business hours here, (5:00) and there's a comute afterwards.

But I'll make it as I can. See you all there.

(Bringing my Mind/Psi dom)

Backups for AT-specific badges for others: tanker/scrapper/blaster/brute/mastermind/corruptor/widow/soldier/stalker

Doh, looks like I will not be able to make it at 6. Turns out I have a bunch of stuff that needs doing tomorrow.

If it's ok to show up late then I'll show up when I can.

Ok so this is what we have so far to my understanding:

1. @Orion Zidane - all hero ATs. MM, brute, SoA on red side.
2. @MindRipper - Blaster and/maybe Dominator is what I am interested in bringing.
3. @Stray Kitten
4. @Jak O'Lantern
5. @Mezzey - Dominator
6. @chicagodoodler
7. @Cobalt Azurean
8. @cherry-2000
9. Magenta Phoenix
10. Seldom (possibly late)
11. @Archdemon - Blaster and Corrupto (possibly late)
12.
13.
14.

We have 9... need 10 but maybe we can wrangle someone in from a global channel or friend of someone in the list.

If anything, two people may show up later and it's a toss up to know how long the set up process will take. Hopefully they can make it in time.

See you all in Pocket D

I'm going to be delayed...work and all.

Good job on the people that showed for the event. Got the first 3 badges for probably everyone, and Pentad for a good group of people before the mother ship raid won people's attention.


I'll reschedule for the remaining who need the Pentad Victor badge.

The swiss draw didn't kick off tonight as the arena is a little wonky. I'm guessing since the i17 patch was implemented the terminals have a few glitches. I'm going to research in the forums or somewhere else why this couldn't be done.

Anyway, thanks to everyone that could make it.

Thanks for hostin' it, Orion. Much obliged.

Darn just got home and was going to log in and see if i could still get in on this. Gratz to those that got the badges.
