Great, thanks!

OK, that didn't work for some reason.
I got the mission on Character A1, and invited Character B (on a second account) to team with Character A1. I then logged off Character A1, and logged on Character A2 (same account as A1). I invited A2 to team with B, and everything seemed OK.
Then I tried to enter the mission with A2 and was immediately bounced back out. After that the mission disappeared from both toons, and neither could enter it (obviously). Should Character B have entered the mission first? Should he have entered before Character A1 logged off?

Yes. To enter a mission, the mission holder either needs to be on your team, or you need someone currently in the mission.

So you can invite someone to your team from inside a mission?
I never tried that, and didn't know it was even possible.

Yes you can, provided the mission is not part of a TF, or being run as a TF through Ouro.

People are saying yes, but because of the chaining you've mentioned I think the answer is no. When the leader quits the mission, the mission goes away, at least in most Radio missions.|

If you were to make a "fan" rather than a chain, where the leader stays and invites other toons, then absolutely it would work, UNLESS you finish the bank mish first. Then the mission is over.
It has been my experience that what I've said is probably right.

The idea is that the toon staying enters the mission before the holder logs off. That way the mission can't go away.

Yeah, that is the key ingredient I was missing and probably should have worked out on my own. |

1) Lower level character (A1) gets a Safeguard Mission.
2) A1 invites character from second account (B1).
3) A1 and B1 enter mission (A1 entering may not be necessary)
4) A1 logs out
5) Log in character A2
6) Character B1 invites character A2 to group.
7) Character A2 enters mission, then goes and gets exploration badge
8) repeat steps 4 thru 7 for additional characters (A3-A"n") until mission times out
At this point, character A1 will have filed the mission (i.e. wont get the temporary power).

A1 doesn't need to enter. Everything else is correct. All that is needed is someone to keep the mission open.

People are answering yes because that is the correct answer. As noted in other posts, the OP needed to have someone ENTER the mission before the leader logged out. If there is someone on the map, the mission will not 'go away'.

Still no dice. Maybe the Devs "fixed" this.
I had character B enter the mission, then logged character A1 off. I logged character A2 on and had character B, who was in the mission, invite character A2 to the team. That all worked fine. However, character A2 could not enter the mission and although character B could have completed it, it no longer showed up as his active mission any more either.
I guess I am stuck with needing to find another player who has these missions, which so far hasn't worked any better.

This may be the key. I didn't have A1 enter the mission. Going to try that now.

Indeed - having the mission holder enter the mission before logging out was the key. Only one Safeguard mission exploration badge to go now.
Oh and a nice surprise - I got the temp power End Increase from completing the mission. I thought once you outleveled the Safeguard mission you couldn't get the temp power even if you had never gotten it before.
(Sometimes, I wish there could be a Dev thumbs up button for quality posts, because you pretty much nailed it.) -- Ghost Falcon
The only time you can't get the temp power is if:
1) You've already had it.
2) You're below the minimum level for the Safeguard. You can still go in and do the mission, you just can't get the temp.

Logged onto character A1 this morning and she got the temp power too even though she wasn't on the team or even logged in when the mission was completed.

Is it still possible to get a Safegaurd mission, team up with an alt on a second account, quit as the mission holder on the first account and log in another character and have the alt on the second account invite the new toon from the first account?
In other words, Captain Hero needs the exploration badge for the Talos Island safeguard mission, but has outleveled it and can't find any other players who have the mission.
However, the Silver Paragon, a charater on the same account as Captain Hero has the mission. Can the Silver Paragon invite Doctor Alternate to team up on the TI safe guard mission, and then quit the team allowing Captain Hero to log on and get the mission by teaming with Doctor Alternate? What if Doctor Alternate is only level 10, i.e. not high enough to hold the mission herself?
