1/14 - 930PM EST - Master Tin Mage

I'd like to get in on this with my Tanker if there's still room. I've got Shivans and Bio nuke, and will try to get Chem as well before the run.

First, I know I'm new here ......but I'm aware of what's available to be used. This particular method I wanted to try, in a perfect world, would have 100% of everyone phased from mines and let the pets do all the work (killing, triggering, etc). Timing is key and wanted to see if a not-so-perfect set up could accomplish it. That's why I post for TFs and broadcast and don't rely on only a handful of people.

It seemed viable; once they were aggro'd, the AV's HP dropped to about 30% like nothing. His posse running around deterred the pets some but without everyone being phased, the chances of mine triggering just cascaded. There are one or two sections that appeared to be completely void of any mines while flying. Relying on Defense is subject to the RNG gods as always and you just have to kill "fast enough". I think more HVACS would have done better being more hardy overall.

2nd attempt, we recalled outside after the glowies and buffed up with pets (but not as many as the first attempt)......not sure what happened though. He did run but I don't think anyone chased him out of the area. When he decided to come back, he dropped pretty quick. I don't recall seeing any mine messages for myself and no one seemed to have been hit at all. We probably didn't drop him "fast enough" even though he really didn't last long; our only debuff was Shamster's traps and they aren't anything to write home about The Cold I was promised was, as usual, a let down.

Our only death on the 2nd run was about 30 seconds from the end where SOMEONE just gave up the ghost like he just didn't care anymore.

Never gotten a "master of" on the first attempt that I was actually trying for before, so I don't see any reason to start

I did like the recalling out more than the "rush in and let pets run willy nilly". Just needed more debuff like I originally listed; tank, brute, FF troller, scrapper, emp, FF defender, blaster, and Shamster.

I've already forgotten about most of you

I'm all the debuff you need, baby.

Sorry, Voo. Once my Ice/Cold is slotted out I'll be able to help more with the debuffs.

Good run all around and sorry we just missed it. I have to check, but I think I still one more badge, something about Bobcat being defeated while Neuron is up.

Quick question, but do MM pets count as player? If no one saw a message on being hit, that is the only thing I can think of atm. A little more debuff either the first or second run and I think he would have went down.

If you set up another, hopefully I can make it. Let me know if you are going to do a nuke run some night.

Eh, I am a noob then. Maybe I don't realize what badges I have (most likely!).

As for the MM thing, just tossing it out there. I really don't know what happened by the door. I like the first run method better, but once the phase wore off I was getting web-naded all over the place and couldn't keep off the ground.

Only other thought was that were balanced on the buffing vs. debuffing. Also, I didn't see much in the way of immobilizing.

Any interest in Round 2: Revenge of the Cheated?

Thinking same time this coming Friday (21st). Slightly different approach (Hacker will not be on the table), but bring the same toys. The more debuff we have, the higher the chances of success, and flying is still encouraged.

My Ice/Cold Corr is commoned out now... let's do this.

Clockwork are our friends. More chance for shards. More chance for purples. More set up time. More organization. Less annoying. Etc etc etc.

I've already forgotten about most of you

My standard 99.9999% chance will be there for a second go. If you do WB, I could use an escort, wink wink.

Round 2: Revenge of the Cheated
930PM EST 1/21

1 Me - Scrapper, locked and loaded
2 Penny - Emp
3 Mental - Cold or FF
4 Shamster - no tellin'
5 Justaris - tank
6
7
8

The more debuffs/Defense/handy helpers, the higher the chance. This is a "master" run, but more for the Dodger badge; Hacker requirement will not be completed. The lesser badges for Neuron will be accomplished if people need them.

I've already forgotten about most of you

I'm up for it.

I'd be game for that. Dark/Elec Tanker. Same plan as last time with Shivans and nukes?

I think I'll also get Envenomed Daggers this time around.

Anything else I should be getting? Will be doing my prep tonight since I won't have much time between the end of work and the start of this.

'm in - got shivs

I'm up for it
Got a Ninja/Dark MM and Night Widow.
My MM have 3 hold,immo, Debuff & Veat buff/Dmg
Witch one would you like?

Would love another go at this but curse the infernal nieces for needing babysitting. I'll be having my hair pulled out and macaroni shoved up my nose about when you make this attempt.

None the less I still think the team got hosed on the last one, considering no one seemed to get a proximity message but Good Luck on this run!!

Pets are still key IMO, so whatever you have handy that you want to throw into the fight will help. (I know this is after the fact, but I'm not on the forums much )

If I could hand pick every person and what they were using, it'd be different, but I haven't figured out a good way to run 8 accounts yet

I've already forgotten about most of you

I'll take the last spot if no one has claimed it.

Since you're not discriminating, I will be bringing my Ice/Devices blaster with no alpha slot and I7 PvP build. Thanks in advance.
