No need to apologise, Blood wasn't your fault. Thank you so much for the guide in PM. Much appreciated.



10am mocuda thursday


1) Capa - stalker
2) Blacjac - brute
3) Blood - his choice
4) Anne - cant remember
5) Viv?

This isn't looking great, so it may not run. I'll shove out some feelers again. I've seen good results with small teams on other servers (smaller mobs).

Just an update and a major "thank you!!" to all who came. We tried a couple of runs with the top five and then Prof & Viv agreed to join us.

1) Capa - stalker
2) Blacjac - brute
3) Blood - MM
4) Anne - MM
5) *Kinesis182 - fort
6) Prof - crab
7)Viv- brute

*Very smooth, very quick. We were really unlucky not to get it. Ok The three restarts before viv and prof turned up were just practice runs. And BB disconnecting twice was just our way of giving the mobs a chance; especially in the last two missions. The ambushes well, such a treat they were. I was pleased I didn't go down until Viv DC'd. And well it was looking too easy so Kin having to go to work half way through Reichy just made it a bit more interesting. And anne disconnecting exiting the final mission because obviously we didn't think she deserved merits after staying from the start.

But apart from that. Very smooth. (You can stop holding your nose now.)

I hate this TF.*

I cannot say how stubborn the members of that run were. Everyone one of you deserved a lot more than the merits (anne did get hers). Not fast, not got the badge but for sheer "Reichs is going down if it takes all week"; absolutely awesome. No one suggested quitting. Amazing.*

Unfortunately I can't share the best part of the TF. Let's just say I think there was some bizarre convo in the last mission.

Monday morning anyone? 10am eastern
1) Capa - stalker

ALTS:

After waiting 20 minutes for the Internet to comeback online, I gave up waiting. Sometime between then and now I got my connection back. Hope Comcast has fixed whatever issue they had.

I'll join again as whatever is needed. Luckily Monday is the 16th, as GR comes out the 17th at which time I need to start alignment mission for Dragun and make a Elec/Elec Dom.

I got pain in places I didn't think was possible. That Reichsman is a marathon unto himself!

I'm willing to give it another shot. Plus I need to know Viv's secret of just being able to stand there and take it!

I said earlier that I think I jinx this TF.

Check Announcements. Extended maint on Monday 3pm to 8pm my time. 3pm is when I was going to start this SF.

How about we leave it until after GR?*

Once again I want to thank everyone who has shown interest in and participated in these Master runs. I really didn't think there would be this much interested. Cheers, guys.

And it would be my day off.

Ah, well, que sera sera.

Oh, and thank you for organizing them, Capa. I really appreciate these runs.

Once GR hits, gonna get Arm over to the redside for the badges, TF, etc. I definitely want to get the TF out of the way first, the exploration badges would be last on my list. So, maybe we can run those task forces together redside??
Just a thought.

Hope all is well with you all

Arm

EDIT - Forgot about the Cathedral of Pain. I definitely want to do this first before switching over, so if our group of players want to try this, I am game for it as well!!!

Are you only talking early bird for the CoP? Because I may be able to help with redside numbers.

I'm not married to the early bird. I just did that because so often people were running Mo's at times which were very late to me. I might be ok at the start, but being knackered at the end isn't going to help a Mo run.

As for the Cathedral of Pain. I would like the badge, however, I'm pretty concerned having read the beta forums regarding the coordination required. I cannot lead that because all of my SG/VGs are solo groups. I can join people in to the groups and stick the porter in, no problem (both bases have the room/power). However, ideally, I'd just join someone elses raid.

Blood, I'd go for that. I don't go into PvP zones so I haven't done the Warburg missile thing. Always fun to stab a vindicator.

Giggity! well umm im awake early and server is down >_< my luck! see every1 in game when server is back up

The Badge is Pain Killer

Badge Text: You've completed the Cathedral of Pain and thwarted the Aspect of Rularuu's plans.

Oh nuts.

Thanks BB. Looks like I am going to be doing it. Ugh.

I'd suggest a different thread for the CoP. That way no one will get confused.

YAY! Shiny badge to be had.

Was in the CoP yesterday with Ariel and SinnerSaint as she was doing some research for the CoP run she is doing on Friday. Can't make that one because of work. I am hoping that I can get in on it this weekend and I am trying to get as much done before I have to shut down for the move.


Also, Blacjac is right, might want to keep this to a new thread (especially since I was the one to start the CoP talk)

I'd recommend anyone wanting to do CoP, pop over and sign up in Ariels' thread. My SG/VG are solo so I don't have three team leaders and frankly I wouldn't want to lead something that I know very little about.

I will be setting up more Early Bird runs when the Praet dust settles. This week I am getting Capa the exp/history badges blue side (she's already there) and working on getting quite a few chars to Rogue/Vig. (This mornings project being a particularly painful one - Mind/FF Controller solo.)

Also have a lot of chars to move around servers now the store is back up.

Eventually the Praet I made Monday will advance past level 2.

I've already start my Praetorian brute, but I am wondering if I should keep him there. I highly doubt that Praetoria is gonna be lvls 1-20 forever, and I would like him to be pure Praetorian. But I can wait.

Plus, I am getting some blue badges on my red badger. With the side switching deal, I'm wondering if it's worth it to have 2 badgers now.

I will look forward to more Mo runs.

Long time no post.

Now that the Praet dust has settled, can I interest anyone on a MoCuda Tue 19 October 10am Eastern?

I'm going to confess that I don't know this TF really well but Blood Beret was kind enough to furnish me with a crib sheet.

So any interest?

Hmm, I'm interested.

I would have to get my badger brute back on the red side, or at least halfway there.

I respeced him to BL00DBATH's formula, and so far it's looking good. I still need a few more set IOs to finish the build completely.

Otherwise, I could bring my widow for it. She's 'experienced' in that SF to begin with. I just need to know what build would best suit the team. The other option would be my dark/dark corruptor, who has only done it once, but is not completely IO'ed out.

I would like to do that with my main, an energy/energy/ice blaster.
