Master of Saturday

The Crimson Order invites you all to participate in our next round of scheduled repeating events starting on May 29th, 2010 when we will run one "Master of Task Force" every Saturday at 2pm Eastern time. We will run them in the following order:

(links to ParagonWiki)
Master of Statesman
Master of Imperious
Master of 5th Column
Master of Lady Grey

Because these task forces can be grueling under the required challenge settings (no deaths, no temporary powers), I cannot guarantee success on every single attempt. It would be a good idea to run these TFs with a normal team and be familiar with the content, enemies, and usual strategies prior to attempting the MoTF challenge. With that in mind, I'd like to lay down a few ground rules:

1) If a death occurrs in the first 10-15 minutes or within the first mission, it will be an automatic restart. Simply meet back in the zone of the contact and send a tell to the team leader so you can be reinvited.

2) If a death occurrs outside of the above time frame, a restart can take place provided it is voted unanimously by members of the team.

3) No more than 3 restarts unless it's a persistent team and everyone is ok with doing more than 3 attempts.

These are just ground rules and are subject to change based on the team morale and tenacity. Teams will be formed on a first come, first serve basis so try to arrive early. The use of ventrilo will be available and the server information can be obtained from a Crimson Order member on site.

Thank you and happy badging

Infernal, aka @Carlos Spicy Weiner

Excellent. And Ventrilo should definitely be utilized. It really helps. Thanks for setting this up. I will be there... provided I don't work those dang Saturdays.

@Tax E - RIP CoH 2012

I would love to do this but I am simply not ready yet. My toon isn't right and I haven't ran all this TF regular yet. Maybe sometime in the future. Good luck everyone!

Well, this sounds like loads of fun! I'm hoping to maybe join in on one or more of these events...

I learned that Mo.. runs should be slow, patient, well thought out affairs. It is much easier to obtain the goal when you are focused and deliberate, not the run -n - gun tactics of a race or speed run.

That being said, I will volunteer to take anyone on these TFs for familiarization purposes. Knowing the objectives is half the battle.

I have added these, except for The Master of Lady Grey TF, to our Upcoming Events calendar.

I will add it and continue the series after you have a date,
after the patch to fix the TF, unless you are going to give it a shot.

I set MoLGTF as last because i figured it shouldnt take them a month to publish the fix. Hopefully it'll be fixed by the time we're ready to do it (June 19th) and it won't cause any interruptions to the schedule.

I will try to be there with Patriot America for the MoSTF attempt.

Hopefully I can make these I don't need the badges (except for Master of LGTF one on EI) so I can bring whatever is needed.


I like to bring my Mind/Emp (fairly IO'ed out as well...30% def to M/R/AoE and some other nice buffs) on the MoSTF just because the ST sleep is so nice in case of extra AV aggro on the last mission

Well, I will be glad to do the non Master tasks forces and get familar with the material.

Alas, I would love to do these but I am being forced to go out by the wife. Maybe next time.

Did the MoSTF start yesterday? I thought I was on at 1pm but maybe I wasn't *shrugs*

MoSTF failed on last mission. When fighting Scirroco and Mako, Mako snuck away from the tank and took out one of the blasters from behind. On the bright side though, there were no deaths against either Ghost Widow or Lord Recluse.

Done in 1:57:22 with 5 total deaths

Infernal Marquis - fire/energy blaster
Serendib Djinn - fire/mental blaster
I R Rock - stone/ice tank
Daleaha - elect/energy blaster
Pyro Technique - fire/kin controller
Burly Green Empath - emp/sonic defender
Yakuma - ill/rad controller
Pink Mystique - energy/energy blaster

Ah okay



Side note:

Just to throw this out there...if there is enough interest I can lead a 2nd team for the Mo* attempts (and won't know this until 1pm on Saturday if there is enough interest for 2 teams ).

MoITF completed successfully in 1:46:38 after 1 restart on the second mission.

Infernal Marquis - fire/energy blaster
Daleaha - elect/energy blaster
Impervium Fist - martial arts/willpower scrapper
Mr. Jack Frost II - ice/ice tank
Burly Boy - shield/stone tank
Thermogenic - fire/rad controller
Disowned Legacy - earth/kin controller

2nd team completed the ITF but no badge. 2nd tanker on our team died from all the ambushes on last mission.

Was still a good run though.

Thanks for the TF and the badge Infernal. We had a death in the second missions and had to restart, but we got it, and it was fun too so even better.

Master of 5th Column attempt done in 53:01 with 1 death, but the
second run with the same team was successfully completed in 51:56

MunkySkillz - invul/super strength tanker
Daleaha - elect/energy blaster
Burly Dark Fist - dark/invul scrapper
Yakuma - illusion/rad controller
Iron Quarterback - martial arts/regen scrapper
Thermogenic - fire/rad controller
Meziele - plant/kin controller

Master of Lady Grey TF failed after 2 attempts. The key to successful completion is teamwork and the ability to listen to instructions, and we just didnt have those factors this time around.

Krevan - energy/energy blaster
Daleaha - elect/energy blaster
Burly Dark Fist - dark/invul scrapper
Serendib Djinn - fire/mental blaster
MunkySkillz - invul/super strength tank
Ill Conceived - illusion/rad controller
Tax E Girl - emp/psi defender
Phantom Legion - illusion/rad controller

So, Infernal are you starting back at Statesman this coming Saturday?

If so I will post it to The Sisterhood Upcoming Liberty Events Calendar.
