thats only showing damage resistance and not any debuff resistance tho, so surely debuffing him would bring that down?

Resist resists resistance debuffs (say that three times fast). If he has 100% RES, no amount of -RES should be able to reduce it, unless it's unresitable -RES (I don't think players have any of that).

After checking, the one that was missing in the west is definitely there.

The double looks like it is in the SE warehouse, not the NE though. I knew it was in one of the large east rooms.

Can you double check the SE/NE thing today Globe? I'm working all day and will update the map soon as I'm in if you can

Defense :
The Defense seems to be pretty flat (0%) sorry i was not able to take a good print screen , but I saw it with no debuff , at 0%.

Base values:
from the base value i look at the regen, again my print screen is lame, but i got the info i wanted. his regen is low, and get in negative numbers easy.

Resist:
At least i got 2 good shot at resist, Enraged and pacified.
I also saw his resist getting lower then 100% with debuff, when enraged.
So my conclusion ... yes we should only stress about resist.
Those numbers look off. I know that when he's Enraged, and not in Unstoppable, the fire damage from my Reactive Interface still ticks, but in very low numbers. It is big 0s when he's in Unstoppable, though.

I'd love to see the status protection and resists, though. At first I thought he, Nightstar and Siege were immune, but then I saw Siege look like he was very briefly held. My guess is that they have purple triangles up or higher protection at all times, along with a very high resist to all, which cuts any that do land very short.

This map is awesome. Now all we need to do is keep trolls from griefing our Mo attempts.

Really? We're still on this urban myth that there are tons of folks looking to grief these things?

Let's get are terms set first: Griefing is not just being stupid or scrapperlocked. It's when someone purposely tries to ruin whatever you're doing.

Now, how many times has that happened to you on an instanced event?

Ran a Lambda last night, and if I recall correctly, the path DOES NOT avoid the elevator shafts. I believe they're in the southern corridor, near one of the caches, but I'd need to run it again to make sure. If it is that close to a location, it might still be worth using them since back tracking might not save any time. (except for Speedsters) I'm always open to suggestions.

Updated the path map. [and updated again 4/14]

It's not an urban myth. It happened last night. We spent an hour culling +2 and +3 badgers from a variety of channels so we could have a chance at a MoLambda. Then we spent about fifteen or twenty minutes strategizing and arranging teams while we went over the GET ALL POWERS, DON'T USE ANY part. The raid went smoothly, and the instant we got to Marauder he was pacified by someone yukking grenades.

There is no possible way to accidentally throw a grenade out of scrapperlock. Maybe stupidity, but I doubt it given the circumstances.

I can't argue with that. I concede the point, good sir.

I'm beginning to think that one crate moves. Most of the time the Hangar (south east large room) only has the crate in the center.

Yep i think i was off on the previous screens.
Marauder was under Unstopable.

Here new screen, displaying enraged Marauder, at 100% ish hp, few debuff beside my Surveillance, just read the base value.

Base
debuff_resist
Defense
Mez Prot
Mez Resist
Damage Resistance

Sa Basilcy no def (def value showed is from Fort), and no regen

100% to s/l resist, 95% for the rest , even psi.

So to get master you have to deal with him having 100% S/L and 95% everything else. When he t9s you'll have to basically wait it out, unless you have tons of psi damage available.

Thanks for those, especially the status ones. I wonder why Siege occasionally looks held for a few seconds?

My guesstimate of 95% to everything but Smash and Lethal was pretty darned close.

Just got out of a failed MoLambda. His resists are a beast. I don't think the league leader realized just how bad they are. We had hardly any -RES at all.

What sort of league makeup is required to actually complete this? If I was to build a league myself for it I'd probably make sure at least half the league has -RES. Some psi wouldn't hurt either.

rad emission, cold dom, and sonic blast/resonance are almsot a necessity due to the -resist, a kin wouldnt hurt either to give everyone as much dmg as possible too

i dont think ive heard too many threads saying they had psi blasters on hand, but i know poeple use the seer lore pets a lot since they are heavy psi dmg

basically you need a lot of exotic dmg types since smash/lethal are out of the question for a majority of it

I'm working today, but I'm hoping to get in either a quick MO attempt this morning, or I'm day off ALL tomorrow so plenty of opportunities there!

as ive mentioned and ive seen other poeple mention, either the GMs dont know what the heck they are talking about and badges are bugged, or thats just an awful way they programmed the badges basically forcing you to get all 3 at once
