Ultimate challenge mission
Its not a gimiky mission full of Toxic damage or some other odd thing like that is it?
I'll give it a shot when I get a chance
Have already done a few AE missions at full 54/x8 for fun so this could be interesting
Main: Praetor Imperium Elec/SS/Mu
I'll have to give this a try.
If my tank can't do it, then it'll be up to my mastermind.
Where to now?

don'T attempt to read tHis mEssaGe, And believe Me, it is not a codE.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
It's full of cheeze, but it's standard enemies and there's pretty harsh limits on number of ambushes and such you can have in a mission. Apparently, a scrapper beat it on X8, I believe with AVs turned on, which I wouldn't have thought possible. The last AV is custom, but isn't as hard as a lot of the regular AVs in the game (except of course that he's level 54).
I may have to put another team together to try your AE mish again. The last time that we did it, we had a blast.

If Arcanaville's "Scrapper Challenge" mission is still available, thats also pretty tough, might be interesting to compare to yours. She had some video somewhere of the original version beating a dev using a special cheatery dev character with all the controller powers (pets, debuffs, etc.), though she's toned it down since then.
You know the name of that mission?
I updated my Architect challenge mission for newly extra-powerful incarnate characters. Since the only people likely ever to play it are here on the boards, here it is:
Aeon's Army Extra Hard
I ran out of time on my tank with 4 guys left at X8 difficulty, no temps or inspirations. Beat it with my scrapper in 35 minutes on X1. I don't know how big a multiplier I can go on the scrapper, but probably not too much harder. I don't think any amount of inspirations or temp powers could let a scrapper beat it on X8.
So if you want to give a go to the hardest mission in all AE, barring archvillains, check out Aeon's Army Extra Hard. Enemies are always 54, so setting enemy level does nothing. There will be one archvillain at the end if you have them turned on or if you're in a group, and he's a squishball for an AV, but he does deal damage.
