Already unlocked and made an interface enhancement, though what I really want is destiny.
That happened to me on my 1st attempt. Talk about a buzz killer.

Hmm, just had two crashes on BAF where entire league lost map. Kind of anoying.

Seems like we're really starting to get this thing figured out.

I'm enjoying it. Ya... there were some bumps. But I can see where this new content is gonna keep us busy for a long long time.

I had fun on the team Wello was leading. Never completed the first stage of BAF, but it was fun. Only got 10% of Interface? but it was only 3 tries.

Oh, Sooner, my girlfriend's cat leapt in my lap just after I hit reply...I blame you.


I am taking my sig to MWO and MWT. Let them wonder what it means.

Last night I had one of the best experiences I've ever had in game.

We had a 8 man pickup group tear through an Apex and an ITF, and it was just crazy fun.

We just played through, and the Apex ended up being a Master run and we weren't even trying for that. The ITF got a little crazy, because we were talking about the most random things imaginable while committing acts of unspeakable violence on poor innocent romans. It was FUN!

I'm hoping to reassemble as much of that group as I can for a Tin Mage and a STF tonight.

I haven't gotten to the 2 new TFs, errr 1 TF and 1 SF to be politically correct lol, but I have done a number of each trial. Day one was a little shakey while people were feeling things out but I was lucky enough to hook up with a few people that had done them on Test and managed to complete a Lambda on day one.. the BAF was bugged and every time I tried to join one I dc'd but thankfully the patch seems to have corrected that and I have completed both now numerous times. So far I have Judgement, Interface and Destiny opened up and Destiny is at teir 3 for the added level shift. I need another 27% to open Lore and I had enough threads, merits and rewards so when I do open it I will probably be slotting a tier 3 immediately for that 2nd level shift. I enjoy both of the trials but do think the BAF is a little more fun.. skipping all those mobs to grab acid and pacifier grenades in the Lambda Section Trial feels a lot like SPEED Running a TF and I have had a few trips to the hospital thanks to that.

I should have all my new powers open today so over the weekend I am planning a TRIAL break and check out the new TFS.

Well, I've played the new SF. It's actually kind of nifty.

I still have yet to do the Hero TF.

I have had lots of success on Lambda (Whee!).

And I have yet to complete a successful BAF. *sigh*

Haven't tried the Lambda trial yet. Did 4 BAF's yesterday, only one failure which I think was due to Siege and Nightstar not being physically close enough to each other to keep the adds burned down with AOE's.

Did a Admiral Sutter, was a bit rocky since only a couple had done it before, but we pulled it off in the end.

The new fight mechanic's are interesting. I like that they are forcing the use of at least some strategy instead of making it a straight smackdown.

Yay, was finaly on a team that won BAF. Fighting at the chokepoints N and S of tennnis courts (2 teams South, 1 team North) seemed to work a lot better than the three zone strategy.

Succeeded in my first 3 BAFs that I tried, and got all the badges, including the Master of Badge.

Thanks Kid and friends

Okay, now I'm getting worried.

I just led two flawless Lambda Sector Trials: Getting all 20 glowies, and taking down Marauder within 15 minutes.

Between the two of them, I only died once.


How the heck did I make a tank that good?

Got a game plan for that one. Will see how it goes.


If somebody you're arguing with goes off the deep end, don't follow.

Would love to give it a try - post a time when you are planning on trying it, will do my best to show up.

Last night was in a group that did 3 Lambda's in a row all successful, all within 15-20 minutes each. Was able to unlock the 2nd tier for Lore.

Winning!

Finally got some successful BAFs under my belt. Feeling good, now.

And now... To work on my 50s and get them this stuff, too!

I kinda wish they hadn't given us the opportunity to "buy" incarnate XP.

I'm not really especially known for my... ah... patience. I've burned through over a hundred shards on my main to get slotted up, and good chunk of change on my rad corr.

A hundred shards?

You could have just about had a backup Alpha Rare for that kind of change!

That said, if you already have all the Alpha rares you want/need, then burning the shards to create threads and new slots is a very reasonable course of action. Expensive, but reasonable.

I have been doing Lambadas like crazy! I need to do some BAFs!

but not tonight since its Last Chance With Kult. Whoop whoop!

it soo many lams this weekend I think 4 yesterday. Everyone was happy with my holds and one guy kept flirting with me! lol =)

Oh and I did the new TF in IP -- it was pretty fun but we didnt do the optional stuff. I suppose theres more badges in there for me!!! *drools*

At first I thought it was going to take a while to build all this stuff, but it's actually going really fast. I may have all the materials I need for a tier 3 Destiny before I ever even finish unlocking the slot.

I do have a complaint about how much faster it is to unlock Interface compared to Judgment, but I don't mind buying the Xp as much as I thought I would.

That new TF is KILLER!

It's not long, and a lot of fun. Was able to get on a team on Friday before they shut the servers down in the afternoon.

I like the new maps and the new dynamics of the fighting.

How the heck did you beat the 2 Durays? We had to quit after the endless "Rain of Cheap-shots"... which are apparently so effective at being irritating that they just had to steal them from the Apex. Quite apart from the annoyance of trying to kill someone that never stops teleporting all over the north end of the map.


Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas

Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

Sadly, the SF is a bunch of old maps (for the most part) slapped together. The feel of doing that is somewhat sickening...like a million other missions we've run....just a cheap SF slapped together to appease the red side. I guess that power at the end is ok but in no way does it improve the SF. I was hoping this type of cheap add to the game was done with

Patience? What is this patience you speak of? *coughs*

Thanks to I20, I'm going to have the song "Come out and Play" and it's local parody song forever stuck in my head because whenever I think of that badge name, bam, the song instantly roots itself into my head.
