Early bird Master runs?
Well after this mornings failed attempt a few of us thought we might give it another go.
I was tired and debating it but in the end I thought stuff it. Anyway, first run came to an abrupt end at riders 3 when I went down. My own fault for not waiting for sb and ID. That terrorize, kills my endurance, toggles drop, Capa drops.
Had a couple of members had to go at that point so, a bit of /telling latter we wound up with:
Me - Ziggy - ss/inv tank
Anne - fire/kin troller
Mrs Henge - sonic/devices blaster built for debuff
Addo - claws/wp scrapper
Morgan - ss/inv tank
Capn - Crab veat with pets
Kay - earth troller
Sithra - dark/emp defender
I did make a comment that the worse the organzation the more successful the task force and on that basis we should sleep through this.
Well mission one and two went much better. The team gel'd very quickly indeed. And I'm pretty sure we were antsy because the reform was annoying. Plus we had to re-reform because I forgot someone offered to fill and I started the TF with him and not Kay. *banghead*
I'm going to have to look and see why I'm taking damage from that rider. It annoys me no end. Speaking of which, I did start to learn controling a tank while SB'd. Didn't improve my sense of direction but that's another issue.
Morgan & Sithra shared pulling duties which worked out well. Damage taking ability v range.
Mission three made me realize how important a TPer was. With Ninja Run being used so often as a travel power (I do it myself) it's a pain when it lost on a Master run. Have the danger from the pylons and falling off the ledges in mission three.
Hami was the same - rikti/pylons. Mito, hide, mito. Then hami. Both morgan and I chomped on EoEs but Hami hit me for half my life. I actually had to back off. Whether it was the alpha I do not know. I thought we went in together. But the team had the best of the gello and we knew the home straight was in sight.
Walk through mission five the rikit, av, rikti, av. Huge scare for me when Sithra pulled Dro and got whacked for the trouble. Really scary seeing that red bar bur - still up so we were good.
I pulled the Honoree because while I knew I wouldn't do the best pull (using provoke) Ziggy takes damage ok. He was a bit painful going down to about 15% easily then holding there. We kept pounding on him and eventually he started to lose health again and down he went.
Then I had a decision to take. On this mornings run me and the other tank took two pylons each. I'm a control freak and if this was going to fail I wanted it on my head. So while Morgan is a great tank and I thank him for everything he did on that TF, I didn't want to risk him dying on that part. If the Master got messed up, I'd rather it was me and only my fault.
I got the snot buffed out of me, and I chomped the lucks and headed for the generators. I flew clockwise from one to the other just landing so I could footstop and kill it. Taking off as soon as it was down. By the time the second generator was down my heart was thumping like a mad person. I must have chomped eight lucks before hand. I did use an endurance insp when rage crasehed at generator three but never needed a health. Got three down flew to four willing myself to chill. Generator four down. Exit. Woot!
I think the others got ambushed somewhere. There was fighting. Addo DC'd on the way out but he said he got the badge ok so that was good.
I almost didn't restart - I knew it would be late for me. But I'm glad I did. Four MoLGs in a week.
Many many thanks to the whole team; all great people who knew their chars abilities. Great shout out for those who hadn't done this TF before. Nice start!
So I'm thinking of Friday at 10am Eastern.
I still would like it on my blue badger but she needs clearing off first. We will need two decent tanks if i'm bringing her. As well as the usual debuffage, buffage.
1) Capa - blaster

I will be looking to do the same sort of thing with Reichsman, LR, Statesman and Khan in the future. But apart from Statesman I don't know them THAT well. And I wanna red Hami ....

I was hoping to join you on that run. But I had to help my Sister and Nieces.
But I'll try and make that one, Dragun Merc/Dark MM.

I would like to make it on that Friday run myself. The lessons I've learned from the 3 runs I have been on have made me take a look at my toons and how I can make them more effective in future runs. Again, I'd like to see what others bring so I can decide what to bring. 3 scrappers, 2 tankers, 1 emp defender, 1 kin troller, 1 fire blaster, 1 widow (both builds), 1 dark corruptor, 1 brute, and 1 stalker are what I can offer.

I'd definitely like to sign up (with Dash Bleu again) for Friday morning's run (as previously stated, my days off are Thu/Fri/Sat).

10 am Friday rosta
1) Capa - blaster
2) Blood - MM
3) Blac - 3 scrappers, 2 tankers, 1 emp defender, 1 kin troller, 1 fire blaster, 1 widow (both builds), 1 dark corruptor, 1 brute, and 1 stalker
4) Dash - Scrapper
5) Celtic - fire/kin troller, bots/dark MM, stone tank, emp def, ill/rad troller, scrapper
6) Morrgan - la feye, my 50 ill/emp/fire mastery troller
7) Armeros - dark x 3 defender for another run or my sonic/emp
* 8) Kay on anythingnot a troller
I'd really like 2 tanks, an emp, a kin for FS, debuffage and holds. Tanks with at least two EoEs would be good.*

enjoyed the run with everyone capa: thx for invite. first time ever doing hami and crew. was kinda a shock but the respec i did over the weekend seemed to help adding rage and hasten to conserve energy.
if room i can probably bring la feye, my 50 ill/emp/fire mastery troller, she has recall friend just need to get eoe for her.
ps i think you and i both died at same time on the first run. speed boost caused me to overshoot target and then was terrorized. darn arthritis makes it so hard to control toons at high speed.
'i used to have superpowers until my therapists took them away' random bumper sticker
please excuse the small print. arthritis makes it difficult to use the shift keys.
Well, I could try to make it to Wednesday night's Hami Raid and collect a few EoEs.

I will see you there, Morrgan. *
I admit I didn't realize you'd gone down too. Mainly because I was screaming obscenities and banging my head on the desk. Basically I got terrorized, lost endurance, toggles went down and at that point my soft capped s/l res/def counts for jack.*

I will be working on Friday, but I can bring my dark x 3 defender for another run or my sonic/emp (level 45). Both are strictly support, very little offensive powers. Whatever can help the team configuration.
My boss will be more than likely out of the office for the day, so I will be flying solo which will allow me to play more and AFK less =)

I found the secret to MoBarracudda, since the MM power is fixed now. The Key is heavy debuff/damage, and take Reichsman down before the ambushes get bad. Last time I did it we killed Reichsman after his second "time out"/rest session.
I think the team we had was 2 /dark MMs, 3 Brutes, 2 VEATS, 1 /kin. We were on a nortmal run and the Kin was the only one to die, but he died multiple times.

We had pet aggro against the riders, I jumped before turning on rooted...end drain, terrorized, toggle drop, cookie monster drop...and I was so pissed because I normally carry a break-free for just such emergancies...
Man, I think I used up my swearing budget for the year.

Well, I did the Hami Raid to get some EoEs, but Hami had to screw things up by spawning early. So no EoEs for the Friday morning MoLGTF from me. :/

Anti-Life Nova - Radiation Blast / Pain Domination Cor
or
Mindblast Nova - Mind / Energy Dom
or
Itsy Bitsy Nova - Widow (can do both Night and Fortunata, but is better as Night Widow - fortunata uses mostly SO´s and basic IOs)
If I get her to 50 until there (46 right now, and growing fast) I could bring too:
Corporate Nova - Grav / Electricity Dom

Yes. I can get lost on a straight-line map.
We can get a team today and try and get some EoEs. Some on both sides.

Count me as a maybe for Monday's run. If I am up, I want to go, but I need to get some sleep after this weekend (I won't be setting my alarm for this one, but later in the week I would...)
