Duo ITF Success, part deux!

Howdy folks! It's me, your ol' pal Beorn.

Well, a couple days ago, a friend said to me, "I feel like doing a duo ITF. Interested?"

Well, I had never done one before, but, I figured, why not?

Anyway, on Virtue we used 2 scrappers and got the job done, albeit rather slowly because we spent over an hour on the last map alone.

So, today, we tried again, on Freedom, where one of my best (and certainly most expensive) characters is: lvl 50 (+1) Fire/Elec Tank, Electric Briquette.

I was joined by @PUMMEL and his lvl 50 SS/FA Brute BRUTAL KILLER (with no incarnate powers mind you).

Even though we were just as fast as the scrapper duo on Virtue for the first 2 maps, and slightly slower on the 3rd map (that computer took us just a bit longer to crack, but we got Requiem and Rommie down faster), we cut our time nearly in HALF.

The secret? Sturdier characters that survived the Nictii Mires much better, and being better prepared by having red insps on hand.

Now, this wasn't a speed run, and I think I only got 4 shards, but I am very pleased with the results from what I thought was 'merely' a "farming build."

All in all, I died twice, and BRUTAL died 4 times (for some reason, I can't get the correct defeats when the complete screen comes up).

You have to choose a defeat limit when you start for the TF to track it. If you don't, it won't show. Tracking is just for bragging rights mind you. Just like this one:

Thanks Mr. Laser! I'll do that next time we try for that.
