Early bird Master runs?

RESULT!!!!!!!!!!

We did it: Master of Lady Grey TF.

The awesome team was:
Blood Beret - Dos Gelidus - Ice/cold Corr
* Celtic Coders - MM
Anne Marie - Blazing Bethia - Blaster
Blackjac - Badjac - Dark/WP Brute
Ulli - Ullikummis - Stone Tank
* Panzerkunst - Panzerkunst - SS/INV tank
Kay Nova - Magical Nova - Grav/Rad Controller
Capa Devans - Capa Devans - DB/WP Stalker

Quite suprised I had enough interest for this on a weekday morning but as it turned out, there was a LOT of interest.

Once my panic had subsided - I thought I'd invited nine people to the team and envisioned missing out on the Master run I'd organized *bang head* - the run itself was incredibly smooth.

At no point did anyone's life hit the yellow let alone the danger zone. Kudos to the shields, tanking and buffing going on there. In fact this team make up was awesome: it had buffs, debuffs, shields, tankage, DPS, range, holds; you name it we had it. Together we just blew the mobs away.

The worst part of the early missions was listening to Infernia and Glacia witter on. Please, Devs, let us duct tape them. I believe their chunteringis the reason they get killed by the players so often. We just can't take it any more.

Hami was fine; cleared the rikti then the pylons. Did each mito, regrouped and hit the next one with all of us targetting through Ulli. Hami himself was easy; Panz and Ulli taunted him and the rest of us stabbed him in the back.

Last mission; cleared just inside the tunnel and while I was logging back in from a disconnect, Panz pulled the Rikti from by the generators to the tunnel and the team wiped them out.

Hoz baby had somewhere to go obviously because he didn't hang around.

At that point we had an "aggh" moment when Celtic DC'd. General consensus was no one was in a rush so we hung out. Luckily he was back in 5 mins because I REALLY didnt' want to go on without him. We'd come so far.

Panz pulled Honoree and we beat on him. I've never seen him go down so fast. It was beautiful. It really was.

Then the debate on the generators. I wanted to keep the team together but there was another idea: Panz to hit the generators and the rest of us hit the ambushes. Team was pretty easy either way so we went with Panz's idea.

So we stood by the corner of the tunnel and I watched Panz's icon circle the room with the generator count going down. Mission complete came up, I typed "get out" - while most of the team had exited - and I followed them.

I can't type the exact responses on the forum (or at least my own *cough*) but "Oh yes" was pretty much up there.

I want to thank everyone who showed an interest; apologize to those on standby who were ready to zing in when the last few members of the scheduled team showed up. Kudos to Condumdrum and teamguy who couldn't make it but went out of their way to let me know so I could fill their spots. Next time guys.

What was great about this team was the make-up. We had great players who knew their chars. And we had players who all had the ability to contribute tactics. I hate organizing stuff/having the star because I feel I either have to do a Dick and Jane "we must do xxxx" or people run off and do dumb stuff. Wasn't the case here. You guys were so good, it was a pleasure to team with you; you came up with the tactics, I just hung around and stabbed a few things.*

Although ... I am quite puzzled how Kay managed to get Bad Team Bingo while in the team.

Thank you all.

Now for the next run:

Other:
Morgan & Condundrum (not this week)
Celtic Coders - MM (not this Sat)

Blacjac & Celtic are you still in for that and if so with what char?

I gotta agree, I was amazed how fast the big baddies fell. We truly were master of that TF.

I'll probably be bringing my villain badger (Joy Heretic's Cat bots/dark MM) Saturday unless we need the tankage.

glad all turned out so well capa. i'm pretty certain they were able to form a 2nd team. do you know how the 2nd team faired?

alt me on saturday please capa!

I had fun on that TF. However, I don't know what to bring this Saturday. I have 11 other 50s that could take part. Guess I'll have to wait to find out what the make-up of the team will be.

I'd prefer to take my Badger (Dragun Merc/Dark), but will also bring what is needed.

I would love to bring my MM on Saturday Capa but the car is still in the shop and I have to run errands Saturday morning.
So give my spot to Willow or whoever is next in line and I will catch you next time.

Bad news, Capa.

One of my co-workers is not able to work this week and I have been 'volunteered' to pick up the shift. So I will not be able to make it to the Master run.

Sorry about that. I hope there will be more Master runs going on soon.

Thanks for letting me know, Blac.

Poss char alting for team make up:*
Dragun - Lvl 50 Merc/Dark (2 ST Holds, Debuffs and a heal) - Dark Adversary lvl 50 DM/WP Brute - Agent Bester Fortu-Widow

Capa - too early to work it out right now (tea 1)

Dear Capa... I am pretty flexible with what i can bring to the run... I am thinking on my Kin...

Has Badge
Mystic Freak - lvl 50 Mind/Elec Dom
Dos Gelidus - lvl 50 Ice/Cold Corr

Needs Badge
Dragun - Lvl 50 Merc/Dark (2 ST Holds, Debuffs and a heal)
Dark Adversary lvl 50 DM/WP Brute
*Agent Bester Fortu-Widow

*on my @Hell Bob Account

Well... I will get my dom... Mind/Energy.

Two things:

Capa, Panzerkunst is Invulnerability, not Will Power. She just looks like WP because I've got her to 23% or so Psi Resist from set bonuses.

I'll sign as an alt for tomorrow morning. I'll try to be on to see if there's a spot, and if I can I'll bring my DM/WP brute, Mercyless, but if a tanker is needed I don't mind bringing Panz again to help other folks get the badge.

Not such good news this time.

Me - ss/inv tank
Blood - rad corr
Ulli - bots/dark MM
Dash no chris - MA/SR scrapper
Armeros - blaster fire/fire
Kay - mind energy/dom
Damon Eht - 3d defender
testguy 3 - thug/storm MM

Testguy had to go in mission 2 and we decided to go on - by a majority. Maybe that was the wrong decision but .. hey ho.

Everything was pretty smooth until the Mitos.

* We were on the last set of colours and disaster. I still no idea what happened maybe lag. I did go down again Hami but I was rather relieved I didnt go down first. The rest of the TF was smooth as silk. There was an out break of deaths after the first one bt thats standard I think.

Next try in 20 mins:

* me - Tanking again
Ulli -MM
Armeros - blaster
Kay - plant storm
Demon - 3d def
Anne marie rad rad corr
Mrs H ill/kin
GG - stone stone

Blood sorry no idea how we lost you but ... see you another day?

Hmm. Close but not quite there. But we know the routine now.*

Standby
Celtic

Sorry, I missed the afternoon run, because of my neighbors taking out the Powerlines, Phone, and Cable.

Well. We tried again this morning.

And we ROCKED it. Not fast but safe. Only real scary moment was me deciding to Inferno something in mission 2. Not really bad but enough for me to consider kicking myself off the team.

The mitos and Hami always gets me edgy. I get very nervous because it's hard to keep a team in the same location at that point. Backing off and regrouping often seems to be backing off and scattering to the four winds. I have to say it makes a HUGE difference, killing a mito at a time, backing off, breaking line of sight and repeating. Really increases the safety.

GG played with Hami and we stabbed Hami in the back. Hami popped and we left.

Dash had to go to work after Hami which was a shame but the last mission went very smoothly.

Usual; pull stuff, get av, get more stuff, get av.

Nicked someone elses idea for the past few runs. Squishes hid near the start of the mission and Panz and GG took out the towers.

Mission completed, we did it and shiney new badge. My third Master badge this week, and on a corruptor with 1123 HP.

Many thanks to the awesome team:
