Brutal Thursday will be on Everlasting this week (05/23) 6pm PT / 9pm ET
Meet in Port Oakes on the north side of the Arena.
Likelihood of a Mortimer Kal SF run and other general mayhem is high.
-
A good run on Everlasting tonight, we had 3 teams going with a Manticore TF (thanks for leading, PLV), a mission team (thanks for leading that, MsA) and a Sutter for the people who like being lead to horrible deaths by me. We finished the night by merging teams and doing a couple of passes through the werewolf world for fun and some dumpster diving.
Will see you all next week on Indomitable at the same Tank Time and same Tank Place.
-
A good run on Reunion today. We started with two teams running Yin TFs led by MsA and Warboss.
MsA then took us through Lars Hansen's arc to unlock Hess for all of us and we merged up to finish the day with a speedy 8 tank Hess TF.
Much fun, leveling, bozo trashing and FREEMing ensued.
June 15th will mark our return to Reunion with Citadel's TF in the queue.
-
A fun night tonight on Torchbearer. We had 3 teams running with PLV leading a Hess TF, Agoogala leading the mission team, and myself with a 5 tank LGTF (yes Hami took a while but we got him).
Thanks all who came, there were a bunch of new tanks tonight and hopefully they will return the next time.
This Saturday we are on Reunion 5:30pm GMT/ 12:30 pm ET / 9:30 am PT. I think Yin in on the schedule for that one with the Bio/* tanks.
And next Tuesday, May 21 we are on Everlasting.
See you then.

A good night on Indom tonight. We had one full team of 8. Dude led us through some Tip missions and after a few people needed to drop, 4 of us ran through the Summer Blockbuster.
Good times had all around. Next week (May 2) we are back on Excel. 6pm PT / 9pm ET by the Arena in Port Oakes.
-
Yes, the plan was to run the 20-24 Safeguard (Protect Steel Canyon bank) for the Summon Teammates (Group Recall) temp power and then the Synapse TF.
Depending on how it goes we may be able to get the 25-29 Safeguard to Protect Independence Port done as well.

Hi all,
Good run on Indom tonight. Three teams, Ronin ran an ITF, PLV ran Yin and I took the missions team. Much leveling and silliness was had by all. Welcome to all the players new to Tanker Tuesdays (and the game).
04/02 we're back on Excel! Meet in KR at 6PM PDT/9PM EDT and we'll get rolling from there.
Much mayhem and very much fun tonight. Many levels and a few deaths on a +4x8 ITF tonight, but excellent herding and tanking done by all involved.
Looking forwarded to the Dr Q TF being led by X'terra next week 😉
-
Lots of fun tonight on a +4 Dr Aeon Strike Force with extra AV fights!
Took us about 1:40 with 38 defeats and lot of Vet levels gained.
Special thanks to @Spaghetti Betty for being our Resident Expert and guiding us through the confusing parts!
See you next week on Torch. I'm thinking of running Scirocco's Patron unlock arc there.

What level do you need to be to take part in TT?
Level 1.
The only hard requirement is you need to be a Tanker

Looking at the schedule for March, the Dr Aeon SF is the WST for 1st week on Excel. To my knowledge, we have not run that SF during a TT so I am willing to give it a go if there is interest from others. To run this, Tankers will need to have Red Side access (Vigilante or Rogue alignment) and would preferably be incarnated as well. We could try a Hard Mode version if tanks are so inclined. This SF is also the only source for D-Sync Enhancements which is an added bonus.
Let me know if anyone wants to try this.
-
My team only got through Posi1 as well before I had to leave, so Posi2 and Syn can be on the agenda for next month. Everyone should be in range for those.
-
A great time tonight on the Inaugural Brutal Thursday on Torchbearer!
DarkPsyanide lead us through a bank heist, some various villainy and the 3rd arc from Dr Graves.
Heroes were thwarted, evil was done and fun was had by all!
Try and join in if possible for the next one on Everlasting on February 22nd 9:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm PT.
Meet in the arena in Port Oakes.
And join the BruteHQ channel for more updates on events.
Here was our final showdown with Dollface...

I will do my best to join you tonight. Didn't have a brute on Torch so I will have a new one tonight as well.

Reminder that we are back on Reunion February 17th and we will be starting a new tanker run.
Primary must be Bio Armor and the Secondary can be whatever you like.
New or very low level tanks please to keep us equal.
Meet up at the tram in Kings Row 5:30 pm GMT / 12:30 pm ET / 9:30 am PT

Looking ahead at the 2024 calendar, we will have 4 more 5th Tanker Tuesdays this year.
Based on our regular rotation, the schedule would be as follows:
April 30 - Torchbearer
July 30 - Everlasting
October 29 - Indomitable
December 31 - Reunion? Excel? New Server?
Thoughts on what we can do for those events:
The Cathedral of Pain Trial is one of the one things we have not completed with an all-tanker team other than some of the later I-Trials. The only time we tried that was on Indom and we were not successful. Torch might be a better place to try that one again.
If we wanted to do an all tank Hamidon raid again, Everlasting in July is probably the best option for that.
Indom is always good for an MSR.
We could also try running through more of the I-Trials on any of these servers if there is enough interest and Incarnated Tanks to run them.
For the New Years Eve TT, there is a lot up in the air about that.
Other thoughts and ideas for the 5th Tuesday is always welcomed.

Thank you for leading us tonight, Warboss!
It might have been a bit difficult at points but we persevered and defeated the mighty jello blob.
And a big thank you to all the Tankers who showed up to take on this unique challenge!
Now some hi-lites
The Monster Hunt
The Blues giving us the blues..
The final push...
And the after party!
See you all next week!

I can switch to Hami tank with my Inv/Stone if needed and there is a willing subject to lead Yellow Melee.
Reminder that we are doing this in the Abyss zone, so the attack prep and flow goes a little differently than in the Hive.
Essence of Earth inspirations are fairly cheap right now with the influx of new players. Was able to get a few stacks in the AH for 500 inf a piece just today. Easy enough to grab a bunch and pull as needed from the AH as that is accessible while in the Abyss.
I will reiterate that Golden Rings and Taser Dart should be a mandatory pick up for this event and the Nemesis Staff and Black Wand prestige powers should fill out the gaps for need of ranged damage on the Blue Mitos for those that are lacking in that area.

Good fun on Reunion today, we were few, but might! Three Palis showed up to start the event, then we flashed back and got the Spelunker badge, fought Infernal, ran Numina's TF, and got our TFC badges. Oh, Ronin lead the festivities today and I goofed off (thanks Ronin).
We're still discussing which primary to start our next round of Tanks with. At the moment I think Bio has the lead (it's between Bio and Fire).
Always a good time on Reunion, and not a problem letting you goof off Boss. We need you all rested up for the big event on the 30th and the chaos that will ensue there!
I also registered the TankHQ supergroup on Reunion today and built a quick base, so we finally have a presence on all shards. Not sure who let the ball drop there.
For the next run of Tanks there, assuming we are starting them up on the February 17th event, a full team of Bio Armor might just be crazy enough for us to try. In fact i made a Bio/Fire tank there today just in case.

Fun run on Reunion today. We had six Tanks and were able to get in both Citadel and Manti TFs. We also had three Palis trying to get in on the event. We treated them to our usual Tanker hospitality. Welcome to the new players, always nice to have new faces at the event.
We just finished our last round of "new" Tanks on Reunion and are looking to start another group. This time we're thinking of a themed sets. So far we have Ice/Axe, Dark/Fire (or Fire/Dark), Rad/SS and Stone/MA. Let me know what you think or if you have another interesting set combo to try.
We'll be back on Reunion on Jan 20th. Not sure if we'll run the new Tanks then or if we'll wait for Feb to make sure this current group has the TFC badge.
See ya' soon!
Good times indeed with at least 2 tanks hitting 50 exclusively during TT Reunion events today.
For the theme of the next group, I think the Fire & Dark sets in either order would be interesting in a large group and so it get my vote.
Paladins receiving a warm welcome
A pile of Council being shown the error of their ways
See you all at the next event.
-
Not as many as last week, but still a good looking bunch of tanks tonight
And we had extra fun with 2 giant mechs on the Hard Mode ITF
See you on Saturday on next week

Pretty amazing night tonight on Excel. I think we had over 56 Tanks attend the event. Thanks everyone for turning out for the event, and thanks to all for hanging in there while we got things rolling. I wasn't able to recall all the leaders tonight, but I'd like to thank them all for taking the lead for their teams/TFs. We finally got the WL Realm going and had a few lessons learned. Just to log it so we remember, 12-36 league members and the min level is 10.
For some reason I'm unable to upload pics this week.
12/12 we're back on Torch. Meet in King's Row at 6PM PST/9PM EST. Also, Jan 30th 2024 all Tanker Hami on Excel!
Yes. Lots and lots of tanks on the wall tonight.
We ran a Numina TF at +4 in about 1:02, just shy of our time limit and with a few more deaths than expected.
Managed to herd up a big pile of Devoured though.

Three teams tonight on Everlasting. One Manti, thanks for leading PLV, one missions team, thanks for leading Ronin, and ran Yin and missions. Guess my pics didn't take this week.
Next week we're back on Indom, same Tank place, same Tank time!
For something different, the mission team did the Post Incarnate arc from Number Six in RWZ.
And we even ran into a (human?) Dr Hamidon before our January event.
We then faced down his Avatar...
and then three more of his Avatars...
The surviving residents of Praetoria were so happy they erected a hologram statue of some tank...
See you all next week.

An all Rad/SS ITF should be on the agenda, in the future! I know @PapaSlade and @Ronin_Around would be in!!!!
Yes, would definitely be down for that anytime

A good night of tanking on Indomitable tonight. Two team running with Spaghetti Betty leading a +4, no temp Yin TF (thanks for leading SB) and a mission team with me doing some Tips and AVs.
Not much in the way of photos today but here we were relaxing after freeing Positron for the Olympian Guard.
See you all next week for the MSR back on Indom.
Tanker Tuesdays
in Tanker

We had 2 full teams on Indomitable tonight, @PLVRIZR led a Market Crash team victory in about 48 minutes and some new faces and tanks joined me on some missions in PI.
Much leveling and mayhem ensued, but no photo evidence survived.
Next week, June 4th we will be back on Excel. See you all then
