AV Team?


Call Me Awesome

 

Posted

I've been invited to them (sadly, was time for me to call it a night) and I've seen them advertised "AV Team LFM". I've done a search and found nothing. I am assuming that this refers to a specific task force or some specific arc in the game.

Can some tell me just what does "AV Team" refer to?

I think AV Team is the new shorthand for AE Farm.

A mission populated with numerous AVs for uber-XP.

I've heard it in reference to a team going thru all of the Praetorian AV's from Maria Jenkins arc in the past.

Yes, of course, this too - I thought that (Maria's arc) was the standard usage and Hube was looking for some other meaning.

Historically it referred to a team running missions with Archvillains... more often than not the Maria Jenkins arc in Peregrine Island. In that arc you faced all of the Praetorian AV's over the course of the arc, several of them multiple times. They're good, moderately difficult missions with good XP. Actually the majority of arcs in PI have AV's at least scattered throughout them; it was commonplace to go there at 40 and run Tina McIntyre's arc at 40-45 followed by Maria Jenkins' arc at 45-50.

I haven't heard AV Team used to refer to anything else but it's always possible there's some new AE mission that the PL'ers have found. Personally I haven't used AE much at all since about issue 15.

too slow

This is likely what was being referred to, but since I've never heard the two referenced together and I haven't actually done Maria's arc yet. I've been doing some of the other contacts in that range and just hit my first 50. I was headed her way soon.

I suppose if it hadn't been past my bed time last night when I was invited I would know for sure.

I have yet to run the updated Maria Jenkins arc (they re-wrote it for Going Rogue) but the old arc was well put together and fun, easily one of my favorite arcs and certainly my favorite in that level range.
