Greetings, Liberty!

So, it occurs to me that there are many of us that have goals in mind with our characters. Me, I like to have the major accolades on my toons, and eventually 4-tier the alpha, Destiny, Lore, Judgement and Interface slots - in that order.
Sometimes, because of time limitations, or different options, a character or two doesnt' meet all the objectives we had in mind for them. (yet)

So, I'm asking here, what are your number 1 and 2 priorities for your favorite character? I often don't enjoy teaming with a regular mission, but more prefer the trial and taskforce experiences. But, if it'll help you get something done, I'd like to help, if I could.

I have my main, Ukase Rex that still needs MoLRSF and Master of 5th Column strikeforce. (those and a couple more redside day jobs and the morality badges for going full circle)

Aside from that, I have a number of toons that need the croatoa defeats and the katie tf for the Geas accolade.

Other than that, there are some toons that need some iTrials and the incarnate salvage components, but that will come over time, just like xp will. It's easy enough to get, just takes time.

What can I do that will help you guys get what you want done the most?
(sorry, no inf for you! I'm making a stalker for pvp and that's gonna probably clear my e-mail out)

I need the Mo Badges - LRSF, ITF, LG, 5th Column, Kahn, most of the iTrials. A couple of the SF's red side.

Happy to help kill mobs for the defeat badges, need most of them on one toon or another.

I'm very flexible on what I bring to any event (other than the Mo attempts), so if you "need" something specific I can probably bring it. Kins, emps, rad, tanks, damage, stealther, I think I have it all covered. I'll have to do some quick/cheap builds for my sonic, cold, and bubbler, but I have those around too.

I know it's a pain, but list which specific badges you need on the iTrials.

MoMoM - except for the nightmares, this can usually be done on one run. Instead of farming for them, I'll try to run them more often - the problem is when to run them so I'm not stepping on someone's toes. Additionally, for MoM, I feel quite justified in asking for +2 or higher, so that creates some problems for some people.

MoTPN- I have the notes for an MoTPN, just need to make them macros so I can remind myself what's to be done, as well as the rest of the league. I'll be running this more often before I lead an MO effort, though.

MoDD-There seems to be no problems catching this with @dragynslayer, or even @Energizing Ion - they run MoDD frequently.

MoUGT- I do these every Sunday. I had stepped back and let @nights blood run them, but haven't seen him on in a month, so I stepped forward again. Liberty is getting into a nice groove running these, and running them well.

MoLambda -I got these when they first came out, so I'll have to refresh my memory on how to get each one you may need, but let's see what's needed first. Which badges do you need?

MoKeyes - Thanks to @wulfrich and @Xtreme Raze and @Letroy and several other key players, after many, many tries, the avoids the green stuff happened for my main. Maybe if we talk anime', wulfie will run some more of these.

MoBAF - see my words on MoLambda - Keep 'em Seperated isn't too bad, Strong and Pretty seems to be the toughest one, but we should be able to get this if we try.

The MoTFS - a good bit depend on team buffs and debuffs and having some experienced players knowing what to do. The Paragon City Saints have taken me on Speed TF runs without any defeats- but the only thing was they didn't have MO designated up front, so no badge was awarded. (and who needs assemble the team on itf?)


Who else has goals for their toons? (besides the obvious XP and incarnate salvage reward tables)

Of the regular "Master of"s I need,

  • Master of the 5th Column Strike Force
  • Master of Lady Grey's Task Force

As for incarnate trials I need,
  • Television Addict
  • Master of TPN Campus**

**Granted as soon as I earn Television Addict.

My badger is Patriot America, my Broadsword/Regen Scrapper who still uses a very old none Defense based build. Any attempts at the above badges I would want to bring him, but I can assist with other Mo attempts with anything from my Rad/Sonic GM killer to my number of sturdy Tankers.

I need all of them on Sgt Pandora and American Dreaming. I don't have any Mo badges on either of them. I'll double check to be sure and if I'm wrong I'll update this. I believe the only Mo badges I have are on Virtue.

Thanks for the list!

I forgot, my main also needs to tackle all the arch-heroes (as a villain) in Recluse's Victory. Times like now, I wish my badger were my ill/rad.

I think the first order of business will be blue side, as those are always easiest to form.


9 pm Eastern, Thursday Night, barring unforeseen circumstances,

MoKahn.

I don't need it, but can bring just about anything needed.

I don't have any specific requests, other than you try to come prepared with inspirations.

Will want a taunter, debuff, buff and damage (and stealth/tp ally) There is no assemble the team in Master of TF runs.

Plan on my bringing my ill/rad controller.

Everything Sgt Pandora needs Valor needs and probably more. I of course would like to earn these on others as well but Valor is my main.

Specific days and time ensure my attendance if possible I've missed plenty of tf/trial in the past. Been trying to be more available for invites. I'll be there Thursday 9:00pm MoKahn with My Tank for Taunting.

I can list times to do specific MoTrial runs until I'm blue in the face - but if the folks that want those badges can't be there, it's not going to do them much good.

For MoBAF, how's Monday at 8PM Eastern?

I'm almost directly speaking to Steele and AV here. You guys are long term vets, but when the issue dropped, for whatever the reason, you didn't get them with the rest of the hard core badging community. I can only assume this is because of limited playtime. When is good for you?

Monday 8pm Eastern for MoBAF, I'll be there.
Thursday 9pm for MoKahn, I'll be there.

Blaster both times....but if we need multiple runs, I can bring something else to assist.

Looking at the badge requirements for MoBAF:

Alarm Raiser Badge Never disable a Guard Tower using the controls at its base during a Behavioral Adjustment Facility Incarnate Trial.


Alarm Raiser is simple - simply don't click the glowie that turns off the turrets.


Gotta Keep 'Em Separated Badge Defeat Siege & Nightstar without moving them from their initial locations during a Behavioral Adjustment Facility Incarnate Trial.

This one is also simple - it just requires two strong teams instead of 1 strong league.

Not On My Watch Badge Allow no Mindwashed Prisoners to escape during a Behavioral Adjustment Facility Incarnate Trial.


Very easily done with a strong league - provided we have a mix of ATs and powersets. Choke Points will be used, and if necessary, blasters will chase down any runners that get through.

Strong & Pretty Badge Defeat Siege & Nightstar while none of their reinforcements are alive during a Behavioral Adjustment Facility Incarnate Trial.

This is probably the hardest one to get of the four. The team on adds must be monitoring the progress on the avs, and the teams on the AVs must be monitoring the progress on the adds. With the right collection of damage ATs on the "adds" team, this should be done without too much trouble. Because I am thinking that most of the hard core badgers have all but this one, our first attempt will be this badge, then "Keep 'em Seperated.

So, two seperate runs.

I can make it. I'll talk to Valor today and see if he can.

A fine job, Libery.

MoBAF on one run.

We almost got MoUGT again, but since I already had it, I'm not quite clear on what we may have missed - and we may have gotten it, there were some conflicting reports. We didn't snipe the bombs in the clustered hallway, but used Champion's @amygdala's technique of using 80 yard ranged attacks and I am the one who messed up his targets, and we just missed it by a second - or we may have gotten it. Again, reports were conflicting - one thing is certain, noone got blown up by it, so it may have been an Mo. Either way, it was a league effort from start to finish, so thanks to Champion and @amygdala for letting me join them to see a new way to do things.

Kudos also to @Dr. Photon and @frankx who reminded me of the fourth "ear" sidepath bomb - somehow I passed that up.

Tomorrow, I will endeavor to get an MoLambda - but it will depend on who brings what. It will likely take a couple of different runs.

So, Tuesday night, 9pm Central, 10pm Eastern in DA. Please bring +1 at least.

Yes awesome runs, Not sure on the conflicting for MoUGT but both Steele and myself have it I know several others earned it but unsure if someone who needed it didn't get it. We are looking foward to tonighs MoLAM, once again thanks for running such a great event.

Just a caveat for those who aren't aware.

MoLambda is annoying in the sense that it requires at least three different runs to get it.

Antacid Badge Get 10 Molecular Acids and no Pacification Grenades in the Sabotage Phase, but don't use them. Note that if you get even one Pacification Grenade then you will not get this badge. If anyone uses their Molecular Acid, you would also be ineligible for the badge.

Well-Stocked Badge Get no Molecular Acids and 10 Pacification Grenades in the Sabotage Phase, but don't use them. Note that if you get even one Molecular Acid then you will not get this badge. If anyone uses their Pacification Grenade, you would also be ineligible for the badge.Lambda Looter Badge Get 10 Molecular Acids and 10 Pacification Grenades in the proper Phase, but don't use them.

This last one will only be attempted if anyone actually needs it. Odds are very good that many of you have gotten this one by accident. And, you might get it by accident during the Lambda Looter run.

Synchronized Badge Destroy a Weapons Cache and an Containment Chamber within 2 seconds of each other during the Lambda Sector Incarnate Trial.

Liberty continues to meet my expectations - which are high.

Three Lambda runs and Mo on the finale.

Wednesday Night 9pm Central, I hope to help you all avoid the green stuff. This badge has problematic for many of you. I am clear on how to get it, and what needs to be done - however, the execution of that strategy will be far more easily said than done. It's not hard for one - but for 24, it will be very hard for the entire league to move out of the way.

Animation and activation times are longer than we think sometimes, and sometimes, we mash a button twice( and it executes the first time, but when we try to move, it begins to execute a second time) leaving us stuck for a moment too long.

Avoiding those pitfalls can not be macro'd away. The player simply has to pay attention and not lose focus.

However, there are reasons why this has eluded so many for so long.
1. The trial is repetitious until the last part. It's a different tempo than at the reactors.
2. Some people are not clear when those time freezes are. According to Wiki, they are at 80%, 50% and 20%. So, depending on how much damage/debuff the league has, we will stop attacking at 85, 55 and 25% and keep an eye on the timer for the oblit beam. This way - if the beam hits while he's at 85% (and the league has avoided the beam because time was not frozen)then after it hits, we spank him, he freezes time, and we're safely out of the way while he does his thing.

Incandescence does work - if someone is fast enough to assemble the league while someone is still "floating", but the beam hasn't hit, the badge effort is not compromised.

See you all tomorrow. Pack greens and Destiny:Rebirth or Incandescence.

Keyes : Avoids the green stuff.
We'll tackle the others at another time, as we'll either nail it the first try and do a ugt to celebrate, or do another run or two to try for it.

9pm central/10pm eastern in DA. Wednesday, 5/9/2112
