It’s time to Drop 'Em Like It's Hott! Let's join together as Champions and take out the Rikti’s Drop Ships!
When are we doin' this? Friday, November 5th, at 11:00 Pm Eastern
We will be gathering in Talos on the "last line of defense" hill across from the base portal so we can team up and zone quickly to where the Drop Ships will be entering. Please be in Talos by 11 pm eastern time
Minor but important details:
- Please use your level 50 hero characters, I cannot stress this enough!
- Clearly, this is going to require all team members to have flight. There are jet packs available for purchase in Firebase Zulu, or you can also buy one for $5 bucks from the NCSoft store… the mini booster pack.
- We need team leaders! I’m calling out supergroups to organize teams for this event. If you wish to be a team leader, please post here/send me a pm/send me an in game tell with your global so I can reach you for further details. Same goes for supergroups that plan on attending.
Basically, a team lead will fill the team and wait for the pre-set Event channel to announce a zone. You'll take your team there and head to the path of the assigned targeter, VonDon Uggenslong. Please have all team members add him to their server friends so they can keep on target.. Keep an eye on the /Request channel for recaps and signals.
I need volunteer team leaders to: show up early! We need to get teams formed prior to the raid and give a basic outline of what to do & who to target off of. Please give the maps linked here - http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Rikti_World_Invasion - a good once over so even if you and your team loses sight of the targeter, you're still aware of ship paths for the random invasions.
We will call out what squadron color path to follow. Team Leads: We will be using our Ventrilo server, for our Ventrilo server information, please send me a tell at @Cherry Cupcakes.
Here is some basic information & strategy on the Drop Ships (considered a GM, and do reward merits!)
- Drop Ships deal an initial energy blast of approx. 900 points damage to a level 50 (try to keep above the ship)
- They enter a zone in two waves. Each wave flies in two separate routes. Approximately 9 ships stream in through each route for an approximate total of 36 ships per Invasion in one zone.
- The key to success is damage and debuffers. Leapfrog tactics will be needed. A team would have to get in their initial round of hits, and then race ahead of the ship to get another shot off. Each team doing so creates a "gauntlet" from which the ship eventually wears down and explodes.
If you have any questions, send me a pm/tell/global @Cherry Cupcakes
DJ Dazz will be providing us all with Rockin' music during the event. Hit him up with your requests..dj-dazz@kjsr.net.
Lets Rock It, Champion!
