Please join us for our last Freedom Horde Monday Night Task Force of Round Four!

Tomorrow night we will be doing both the Apex and Tin Mage Task Forces.

It will be great to wrap up this round, but it will be a bit sad since it will probably be Master Blades last night with the Horde. =(

Right now I have 2 full teams, and we are taking names for alternates. These TF's can be a smidge rough, so I'm asking if you join that you have a level 50 who has something in their Alpha Slot. If you have a toon that is already level shifted, or who has some of the other Incarnate Abilities, that would be great too! Nukes, Shivans and Heavy Cores would be a plus too!

See you all tomorrow!

Hey Luna, would it be cool if I brought my fire/inv scrapper Pyrewulf rather than Ragypt?

Yep, not a problem. I'm pretty sure we'll be just running 2 teams, so we'll have a debuffer on each team.

My computer is in the shop waiting for a part, and therefore I will be out of commission for at least a week.

I'm sorry everyone. The game keeps crashing halfway through the loading screen. It says something is wrong with one of my .dll files. I don't think I can continue on tonight.

I understand my friend. I hope you get it worked out just so you can play again soon. =)

Thank you to everyone that was able to join us last night! We FINALLY finished Round 4 of the Monday Night Horde: Villains. Thank you all for toughing it out! I like villain side, but a lot of the missions and task forces feature very repetitive enemies. It's also much harder to drag a group from 1 to 50 on task forces alone.

Last night we ran the Apex and Tin Mage Task Forces. We had 2 complete teams. My notes are a bit sketchy, but lets see if remember who all we had =):

My Team was:
Soothesayer Talona: Mind/Thorns Dom
Bleakest Death: Zombie/Dark MM
Torrtuga: Fire/WP Brute
Motorpsycho Nitemare: Psi/MM Blaster
Double Shot: DP/Fire Blaster
King Sac: Energy/Energy Blaster
Pyrewulf: Fire/Invuln Scrapper
Fire Starter 2012: Fire/Energy Blaster

MB's Team was:
Brenda Brain-Freeze: Ice/MM Blaster
Luchs: Stalker
Takeo: Bubble? Defender
Quark Soup: Fire/Rad Controller or Corrupter?
Sevenpenny: Kat/WP Scrapper
Doc Turg: Ill/Storm Controller
General Damos: Soldier/?? MM
Princess Polyxena: Tank

My team finished the Apex TF in 1:07:19 with 109 (!!) deaths lol. Even though our team had 6 level shifted players, and everyone had something slotted in their alpha slot, we struggled the entire TF. We was very squishy with 4 blasters, a dom and a mastermind. Our main meatshield was my husband on his WP Brute who was very weak against the Clockwork damage, my control on my dom was non existant, and our only support was a mastermind, so everytime someone looked at him, Mr E fell down dead :smirk:

And yet somehow, we got Master of Apex LOL! Yay team! =)

On the Tin Mage task force, we had a little bit of a team shakeup. I switched out from my Dom to Dyanthia a Rad/Rad Defender. We also lost Fire Starter who could not stay for the second part, but we gained Night Beast (Thanks for joining Synakul!) in her place. We also lost Motorpsycho Nitemare because as he mentioned, he kept crashing and couldn't zone into the first mission. Sorry Xort! =(

We finished the Tin Mage TF in 56:31 with 34 deaths. We didn't get the MO because of Dodger, but I think the team did get the other badges (I had them already on Dyanthia).

Last night was also the last night with Master Blade as one of our leaders (at least for now, I'm still hoping you decide to return full time one day!). I'm glad everyone was able to show up and say good bye for now to our friend.

Next Monday night will be the start of Round 5 of the Monday Night Horde Events. We'll be returning to Hero side with a fun night of the Positron 1 and 2 Task Forces. I'll have the sign up sheet up tomorrow for it.

Thank you all for being such a wonderful crew to run with and giving me a reason to keep running these events after two and a half years! =)

I was happy to tag along, i usually dont get home until 11pm est so i cant sign up for the weekday tf's. But thankfully you guys tried to get the dodger badge again and i had just logged on to the game. It was fun running with all of you again, even though that dodger badge eluded us.

That dodger badge is a tough one to get, it seems that its luck that no one gets hit by the proximity bomb. Im not sure anyone has come up with a full proof way to get that badge.

Usually it involves a team dedicated to getting the badge with lots of pets, nukes, buffs, and everyone on the same page. We attempted it last night with a few players who were not very familiar with the TF, so it didn't go as smoothly as it could have. But we didn't set out to do the TF as an MO exclusively, so it's all good =)

I've gotten it once and on that occasion we had Director 11 down in about 15 seconds. But we also had about 5 Heavy Cores, a few Shivans and at least 3-4 sets of nukes lol.

The Nukes really help a lot in getting D11 down fast - I was very, very surprised we got the Master of Apex last night - there was one WW up top for at least 8 minutes blasting away after we wiped.

And it's a good thing our wipe on the 2nd mission happened when BM had retreated...I'd love for the devs to implement a countdown clock for her when the timer is active - I thought we took too long, but apparently we were good (I'm betting it was somewhere around .01 seconds left on the clock!)

Thanks for another fun run Luna - I'll probably be retiring Bleakest Death - necro is not my favorite power set to run...stupid zombies...

I'll have Cold Satisfaction ready to go for Monday.

Yes, I was very shocked we got the MO Apex lol for the exact same reasons. That Warwalker was up there forever, and I know I saw him launching his blasts several times. And it felt like an eternity taking down Battle Maiden. I thought we had spent 15 minutes just on her first spawn =P A timer would be lovely. But it was a very pleasant surprise =)
