i got dark dark dom to 50 about 3 days before 2xp started so i started a grav dark troller and i got him to 50 in about 2 days, the rest of the time i was running on a 50 to help some friends lvl cause they helped me to lvl
I'm a lightweight. Plus I didn't do a ton of teaming.
But I bumped my necro/dark mastermind from 39 up to 48 courtesy of a Moonfire, A Posi 1 & 2, a Manticore and some arc completions. Might still play a bit tonight but I don't think I'm gonna push it, I'm content with the progress and I'll hit 50 within the week with him.
Nothing too impressive here. Got my new Dark/Dark Controller from 20-35 between most of Saturday evening and a couple hours on Sunday.

Spines/Dark Scrapper from 37-41. I only had the time to do an ITF and a Moonfire.
@JohnP - Victory
Peacebringer 42 -> 50
Fire/Thermal Corruptor 38 -> 44
Nothing overly exciting, but my goal was to get the PB to 50.
Mostly ITFs (some fast, some not so fast 
), a couple of Moonfires, and wanted to run in MP's Morty Kal last night but it was too late for me.
Oh... and ran in a Numina with my 50 Ill/Rad to finally get TF Commander!

DC/DA Troller 25-27, hmm it seems like DXP every week now with the way xp and debt are, I made no special effort for this weekend.
Too many 50's to list here's a few you may know.
Slazenger, Area51, Area53, Area54, Erruption, Mind Plague, Thresher, Sheath, Broadside, Debt
My tally? Had fun.
Was surprised I got as much play time as I did, which isn't saying much, but still.
I've already forgotten about most of you
Dark/Dark Controller from 24 to 50 (Alpha unlocked)
BR/Rad Corruptor 37 to 50 (Alpha unlocked)
I was also lucky enough to get 6 purples from Friday to Sunday (8 total since Thursday) so it was a pretty good weekend.
Who do I have to *&^% around here to get more Targeted AoE recipes added?
Arc Name: Tsoo In Love
Arc ID: 413575
I had a nice weekend I set some high goals and came pretty close...as a side note when I PL toons its normally to 47 so I start slotting IOs and work on the play style
Time/elec fender 44-47
br/poison corr 33-38
Dark/dark Dom 10-39
Tw/invuln brute 22-47
And an ice/dark troller 2-47 (took me 10 hrs solo on Sunday)
No purps but a nice chunk of change
Didn't play that much:
Dark/time from 10 to 41.
wp/ma 1 to 33.
kin/arch 1 to 33 then deleted.
No purples.
about 4.5 bill in sales on market.
I got my old Iso bane spider from 45 to 50 and an old Ice/Emp troller from 44-50.
Horatus - lvl 50 Fire/Elec Blaster
Finished off some going rogue era characters:
Sonic/DP - 37 to 50
Demon/Pain - 44 to 50
Spines/Dark scrapper - 46-50(+1)
Also got my FF defender a couple levels off two ship raids. 44-46 I think.
I re-rolled my titan weapons/fire brute as a tank and got him to 13ish off a couple of DFB runs.
My only regret is that my baby Dark/Cold controller didn't get any attention.
Got one (Gravitational Anchor) purple drop. Looking forward to some iTrials this week!
Maybe I'm crazy, but didn't Mental mention a 3 hour ITF?
If so, was that the one you DENIED me on?

Most were slower than normal. I chalk this up to:
- Wide level range, usually SKed up to 49 by the one 50 on the team.
- Mostly non-50s, so no Incarnate powers.
- Slotting was spotty at best, because everyone was lvling so fast.
Bottom line is we figured out and just focused on the Essences and took him down that way.

Yeah what you experienced is one of the reasons I haven't been that much of a fan of double xp weekends lately. You will sometimes find characters on your team that someone is just trying to "finish" which usually means they don't want to invest inf for enhancement.|

As far as what you saw with rommy, where there any MMs on the team? He still runs from the pets, which sucks.
He also seems to run from "rain" types of powers which is why on my cold/ice I always try to lead with sleet for the knockdown.
I have seen him run around also if someone confuses him.
One final cause from him to run all over is if some has his aggro and is flying high, he will run around trying to find a high enough place to attack.
The "summoning" nictus will spawn those essences if it gets attacked (I've heard people say its getting hit with AoEs only, but I think if anyone attacks it with single target it will also spawn them).
So I would guess you had a lot of rain aoes firing which maybe lead to both him running arround and the numerous essences.
If you want to avoid the abushes that spawn pull him off the platform to the ground and fight him there.
i believe the fluffy that spawns nictus acts essentially the same as a real cyst crystal (not the ones that do nothing in the ITF)
those do a pulse over an area and spawn a nictus for each player in range (not 100% sure but i think pets also make it spawn more)
basically the further away from it you are the less chance of it spawning as many baddies
Either way, I'll chalk that up to karma.
Take that!

I had a lot of fun with my husband and other friends all weekend. I had set the goal of 4 50s, but I beat my goal LOL.
DP/Elec Blaster - 37 to 50
Dark/Dark Blaster - 41 to 50
Ninja/Bubble MM - 48 to 50
Demon/Thermal MM - 44 to 50
Rad/Traps Corrupter - 46 to 50
Sonic/Thermal Corrupter - 44 to 50 (dinged literally on the very last "turn in mish" to Mort Kal)
Psi/Mental Blaster - 41 to 46 (when I was going to push "1 more" to 50, this one and the corr where both 44, but I went for the corr)
All the 50s are alpha unlocked (ty coupons!) and 3 are fully set IOed, the others are basic IOed at least.
Earned lots of inf/prestige and got I think 6 purples over the weekend.
Was a lot of fun, thanks to everyone who ran teams with me

according to the wiki both the cyst crystals and the fluffy in ITF use the same mechanic|

the only difference between them is one is mobile and doesnt explode on kill
Dark/Dark dom 1-17
Inv/Dark tank 22-42
I was hoping to push the tank all the way to 50, but I'm happy with how close he got. He also got TFC, and I just have to run around for a couple explores and histories to finish off Atlas and FP Reserve.
And when I logged in to do my repeatable stuff in DA, I popped out of a mission on top of a group of 7 grey Tsoo, so I hit them with Judgement. Rare Invention Salvage, Incarnate Thread and a Catalyst off one-shotting seven grey minions. 
@Roderick
I don't think we had a MM in the 3-hour ITF.
For some reason, when someone tried to snipe him to pull him, he would run away and start running all over the place.
Once, maybe twice, he ended up bringing some 5th Column adds with him to then go back to the steps and leave us the adds to deal with.
The only way to finally pull him to us was for me to TP in to him in Dwarf form, taunt, and then TP back to the wall.
Then while everyone took care of the fluffies, me and a Warwolf (Wolf Whistle, or whatever the temp is called) kept Rommie away.

i think ive seen that happen too sometimes where rommy gets spooked about something and starts running like a chicken with his head cut off
the only way ive found to really prevent that is lots of immobs since those stack easier on an AV
I believe you see that more with snipes from range with either a hefty DoT or hefty Debuff (usually -toHit), and then even more so if the sniper has good defense going. A lot of AVs will take off like that if not engaged right away after sniping in my experience.
*shrug* I won't drag down the rest of the team's competency just because Mental was there. But you never know

I'm a lightweight, so I'm calling it a night now. (MP is starting a Morty Kal as I type...)
Here's my tally for the weekend:
AR/Pain Corruptor - 42->50
Fire/Rad Corruptor - 37 ->44
SJ/DA Scrapper - 25->27
Titan/Inv Brute - 23->26
Dark/Dark Dominator - 0->16
It was a fairly productive weekend.
How'd everyone else do?
