It was a bunch of fun, thanks to all 6 of the ones who were left at the end for a really fun run,

(For those who were on it, my name is Daranable in game)

Our team as it stood with the Final 6:

Daranable: Willpower/War Mace
Onyx's Mystery: Stone/?
Metalios: Fire/Super Strength
Sakurra: Ice/Energy Melee
Crom-: Fire/ ?
Noble Scarlet: Fire/ ?


We started out with 8 of us tanks, Three Fire/ , Two Willpower/ , One Invul/ , One Stoner/, and on /Ice. And blazed through the first 3 missions.
Hit a tiny snag during the second Dr. Aeon mission where half the team wiped but recovered cleanly from that and went on to defeat aeon in under two minutes.

Next we went into the final mission, here is where we started having issues, having ghost widow use AoE hold on half of our team and taking them out etc, and the other 3 AVs were not wanting to leave us alone.

So we retreated and regrouped, got ready to go again, and started by taking out Cap'n Mako first, The other 3 decided to join us again, so this time we left 6 on Mako, and 2 of use were holding the other 3 AVs due to dieing there was a lot of switching around of rolls,

Next we took our Scirrico, his defense debuffs were a constant nuisance through the entire mission, he went down smoothly once we got on him.

Next we chose to take on Black Scorpion so we could have ghost widow on her own. I had been getting extremely lucky against Ghost Widow and was avoiding most of her holds, of course with no Empaths around, she did get the better of me several times, but with help from other we were able to keep her at bay till finally it was her turn to face the Mace...

Here is where things started going down hill, We were all fighting GW, and she was constantly holding our Fire/ tanks and killing them (I still feel bad for you guys thank you for persevering!) The stoner and I were passing her aggro back and forth, but apparently her hold is an AoE. >.>

So anyway, without a word, during that fight our Invul/ tank decided to ditch apparently he had enough of that.

And then we started bashing on Ghost Widow a bit more during this phase we lost our second Willpower/ tanker.

Finally we ended up retreating to the ship where we had a bit of support from longbow and their turrets, Pulled out all the stops, I dropped a Vangaurd HVAS my last Shivan, some one dropped several pets and a bio nuke, and with that combination, we were finally able to put Ghost Widow where she belongs.

Oh I forgot to mention throughout this entire Task force we were having issues with players randomly getting disconected and having to reconnect in.

So we took our time to go get some more temporary powers Envenomed Daggers, and Large inspirations.

Next we took on the flier before we took on the tower and recluse, Flier went down without any issues.

Next up is recluse, since we were down to 6 we decided to take out all 4 towers, I started out tanking recluse, didn't have a jetpack so I stood toe to toe brawling it out, which worked for most of the red tower.

Then right as the red tower is nearly down, recluse gets the better of my endurance and makes me eat cement, I hosp it asap, Meanwhile the ice tanker took his agg and flew up out of his range. by that time we had lost our progress on red, but thanks to the Ice/ tank the rest of the towers went down without a hitch, Red, Blue, Green, then Yellow.

Up to our final battle with recluse, he went down like the wuss he is.

Got him down to 20%, had two of our member crash again... So we held recluse where he was till they got back, and when they returned put recluse back in his place as well.

All in all it was a very rewarding experience.

(P.S. sorry about the length)

Attached are some screenshots of the final moments of the task force.

In total it took us 2 and a half hours.

Hey, grats to you and your teammates Daranable! I'm not sure if you remember, but you and I have teamed before on an all-Tanker team. Anyway, if you ever put together a +4 all-Tanker ITF, just let me know. I've been itching to join one.

I was the 2nd to DC in that TF

Hala Zzyzx (DM/WP)

Yeah. I was stuck in GW's death Hug and *poof* I was gone =/.

It was soooooo much fun though!

I personally think the WP tanks rocked it out (but i might be a little biased =P)

The awesome part was that we only used Daggers for debuffs! (No nukes,shivs,HVAS Nothing!)

Hope to do more all Tank things!

That sucks, We had assumed you raged as you had not came back on before we finished. Sorry you were not able to make it back in time. You missed the part we pulled out all the stops on GW, I had a random Shiv and HVAS we had a couple Amy's Wards, and someone pulled out a bio nuke, and that spam of temps is what allowed us to finish off GW in the end.

And honestly what was with GW that fight? She would hold anyone but me, and I think during the whole time we fought her she held me maybe 3-4 times?

Thanks Boxer, yeah I remember that mission. That was utterly brutal of a AE arc. >.>

I never felt so squishy on a tanker before that mission!
