Shardtober 2011: Dr. Quaterfield TF Oct.1-2

It's time. The calling of heroes (and rogues if able) for the Shadow Shard Task Forces is now.

The plan is that during the weekend (either Saturday or Sunday) we can get at least one team going on the task force by order of zone/level. First up: Dr. Quaterfield in the first zone, FireBase Zulu.

Dr. Q TF is set at Levels 40 - 44 (auto exemp, natch, for anyone over 44). It requires a FULL TEAM of 8 players to begin. As in all things CoH, it helps to have some balance on the team: considering the type of villains you face - Rularuu especially - you really need a few mezz-protected types like Tankers, Brutes, Scrappers and Stalkers on hand as well as Defenders et al for buffs and protections.

I find it helps to get sign-up sheets going, planning ahead (because it takes FOREVER to get a PuG TF going). So I'm going to set up two sign-up sheets: One for Saturday, and one for Sunday.

Dr. Q is one of the longest TFs in the game: by sheer number of door missions you have to run. It's sped up a lot since the early days, but don't be surprised if this takes you more than 4-5 hours to complete. 6 hours is best-average time for what I recall. This is why I suggest, for this TF at least, to start early in the day as possible. Best situation is around 1-2 pm EST if that's okay with people.

I won't be available for Saturday: I am busy elsewhere (Comic book writing event, actually). But I will do what I can to show up for Sunday's TF attempt. That sound alright? :-)

Okay, sign-up sheets are below. Good luck this SHARDTOBER, people!

@Battling Beastman is asking for a spot either Saturday or Sunday. It depends on how many more sign up.

Fwiw, rogues are able to join, but will slow things down a little because of lack of hero ouro access.

Okay, for the Sunday team, can we aim for a 1 pm EST start time?

Sounds like fun, and you forgot to mention how rich this TF is: lots of shards, inf, merits, recipes, salvage, everything!

Not sure which character I will bring, but I'll be there.

Sorry, Dongonyei, if we started too early without you...

We had a good turnout for Sunday's TF run! I wanna thank all who ran what was for me the fastest Dr. Q at 3:23 time.

Now, to get Sara Moore TF organized...
