For the upcoming Cathedral of Pain trial on Indomitable on November 29 there are only a few requirements. i - need to be a Tank ii - need to be level 40+ iii - a Flight power or teleport will be needed (this raid takes place in the Shadow Shard) iv - need a minimum of 12 tanks to start and can hold a maximum of 24 v - the more 50+ with Lore pets we have will make the AV fight quicker The trial is 2 phases, Phase 1 - Destroy the 3 Obelisks - when we zone in we will wait at the starting point for everyone to load in and to resort the teams. Then each team will move to their assigned obelisk and wait in a non-agro spot before we attack. All three obelisks must come down within 35 seconds for the portal to the Cathedral of Pain to open. When the word in given, we will clear out all non-natterling creatures around the obelisk to get the shield to drop. Then attack the obelisks and bring them all down to 10% health and wait. IF we don't this phase can reset and we have to do it all over again. When all are close word will be given to burn all obelisk as the same time, this will open the portal and we will be on to... Phase 2 Once the Cathedral is open we will enter through the portal where you will see the Aspect of Rularuu. He is protected by a shield that only drops when all the other mobs in the room are defeated. When his shield drops, we have 60 seconds to pound on him before the mobs respawn and his shield returns. When we enter this room, we will gather and summon Lore pets and any other pets you may have, clear the mobs then immediately hit Rularuu as soon as his shield drops. It may take 2 or 3 rounds of this for a group of tanks to wear him down. After he is down and we are successful, select the Random Item of Power reward to receive the Pain Killer & Power Liberator badges and a 7 day (real time) buff. We will be forming up in Kings Row at 6pm PT/9pm ET as usual and launching directly from there. Hope to see you tanks there.

Tank Team 3 ran a FreakSpec with 7 tankers in 34 minutes and then a RiktiSpec in 41 with 6. Good times all around and thanks go out to all the new players who joined us this week.

We also got a 1 Star Hardmode ITF in tonight as well. PLVRIZR lead us through that in 1:49 with only 84 defeats. A good night all around.

The Abandoned Sewer Trial is the WST next Tuesday and we will be on Excel so there should be plenty of Tanks around. If you are willing to lead it, I will happily join you.

The Tanker Tuesday runs on Reunion are usually the 3rd Saturday of the month and start at 17:00 UTC (10:00 am PST) Usually it runs into the weekly Hamidon Raid on Reunion that we sometimes join in as well The next one should be on August 20th. Hope to see you there and bring some friends. Any level is welcome, as long as they are a Tank!

A really fun night all around with the RiktiSpec and 3 AV beatdowns (Mother Mayhem, Nightstar & Battle Maiden) These two pics show how most of the night went... for those that opposed us. See you all next week

A good time as always. Unfortunately I failed to get any pics from the 2nd Kahn team. But great to see a bunch of new faces on Tanker Tuesday. Hope to see them all again next time.

A good night of Tankering tonight with a bunch of new faces. WE started with 4 teams but I guess we added with just 1 mission team (thanks for leading that Kilo) and 2 Numina TFs (thanks for leading the 2nd PLV). Sorry again for the mix up Krimson. We will be back again next week on Torchbearer at the usual place & time. A hallway fight with some DE And the fight to get Witty's car back...

I am sorry about that Krimson. My bad on getting things sorted out to start. Was a little confusing there for me for a while. Please come back next month or next week on Torchbearer.

Got you covered. Join us when you can

A good night of tanking on Everlasting tonight. One ITF team and one AV/mission team were going. Thanks to Pep for leading the ITF team. The AV team beat up on Chimera, Black Swan, Dominatrix & Diabolique. Good times all around. For some reason Dom, didn't want to get into the press with us. and Diabolique called in artillery on her own location but that didn't stop us. See you all next week on Indom. Same Tank time, Same Tank place.

For something different, the mission team did most of the Dream Doctor arc in DA this week. Incarnates were fought, Talons were clipped and the Sentinel was faced down. Much fun had indeed .

Yes, good times had by all this night. Many Roman helmets collected...

Lots of fun had with our Euro Tanks today! Here we are punching local Nazi Archon Burkholder in the face And here we are stopping a multi-dimensional incursion from Chimichaga

A good night a tanking happened today on Torch Three teams of Tanks delivered much needed justice to Torchbearer, with Citadel's Task force (lead by PLV), Woodsman's Trial (lead by Kilo) and a mission team taking out many AVs (Battle Maiden, Black Swan, Malaise & Mother Mayhem, and Infernal & Diabolique) being run. Many levels were gained and much fun was had. See you all next week on Everlasting!

Just a bit of the Tank on Tank action from the Freakspec...

Terrible news to hear. Thank you for posting this update, Philotic Knight. Heraclea was always a pleasure to team with, many a Tanker Tuesday was made even more fun by having them on the team. His base building skills were exceptional as well. The detail and effort he put into many bases was truly impressive. Heraclea and all their alts will be greatly missed.

Terrible news to hear. Heraclea will be missed greatly. Link to Philotic Knight's thread...

A successful Tanker Tuesday on Indomitable tonight. Two teams running with a Positron TFs 1 & 2 being led by Pep and a small mission team being led by MsA. See you all next week on Excel.

Thanks for the confirmation, I thought Vigs could get credit but wasn't positive. Will be running as straight missions, not as an Ouro Arc, so in the off chance that people get booted we can bring them back, but thanks for the info, will keep that in mind for future runs. With the alignment shifts being a click with Null, it really shouldn't be a hassle for most to switch sides for an evening though.

If there is any interest, I can run a Patron Arc to unlock the Patron Power pools for people on Everlasting this week seeing as it is Respec week for TFs. Scirocco's arc is the likely candidate. (Mirage Badge) Tanks will need to be Rogue or Villain alignment (I believe credit will be given for those of Vigilante alignment, but am not sure if the pools unlock until you fully flip to red side). To switch alignments a tank will just need to talk to Null the Gull in Pocket D and switch to Rogue for the night (you can switch back the same way afterwards). See you all on Tuesday

A 3 Tanker run on Reunion today where we helped out a ghost and fought a junk pile. Numina's Task Force was completed in 1:23 by MsAligned, Warboss & myself. Bozos were trashed and good fun was had. It started with some Crey goons refusing to not MoG... Then some good Devouring Earth herding took place... Finally we found the cause of it all... and in the end it was just three tanks and Jurassik Hope to see more out next month... October 16th is the date for the return to Reunion I think
