Dr Kahn is the blueside version of Barracuda. Theme Team completion time in March was 1:03:32. Dr Q is the notorious one--it generally took about 8 hours on Live, long before the proliferation of transport powers. On HC, it can be speedrun in 90 minutes but our last Theme Team run (last Shardtober) took 2:47:41. I soloed it in July in 3:09:07.

No, it's relatively short unless you're doing a Master run. It's the one with all the 5th Column ambushes while you fight Reichsman and 4 other AVs who activate sequentially as Reichsman's HP drops.

Here's our original lineup. We recruited several more--thanks for coming out! Versus Jurassik.

It's shown on the wiki, but it's spread out over the discussion of the mission. The Ripple Raider badge is for defeating all 12 optional AV/Hero-class opponents: In the first ripple (Council), you have to defeat the 5 AVs at the far end of the map: Arakhn, Maestro, Nosferatu, Protean, and Emperor Requiem. In the second ripple (Devouring Earth), you have to defeat the four turned Heroes (Gale, Quill, Slate, Tundra) and Terra. I don't think the Mouthpiece counts, since it's only an EB. In the third ripple (Portal Corp), you have to defeat Hero 1 and Incandescent, which requires that you agree to help PsiCurse. I don't think Apex counts, since he's a required defeat.

And here's my badge completion, just before heading to iTrials last night! I pulled out my original Live costume for the occasion. My final badge was Immortal (100M damage taken), about the last half of which I got from Resting in front of two +4 Malta engineer-summoned turrets (~390k/hour). It was what I could reliably regen solo.

With regard to Shardtober, perhaps a bit of discussion to help guide themes: In the Shard TFs we have four opportunities for Mirror Image or Variety Act badge runs. It can be a little harder to nail down Mirror Image, so does anyone need that badge on a character? (And what AT are they?) On the other hand, I've mostly tried to stay away from AT/Power themes (and stick to costume themes) for the higher-level TFs, since people may want/need to level a new character to qualify. I love the Shard TFs, but they can be a bit lengthy. Especially Dr Q, which requires some effort/planning to complete in under 2 hours. Is this okay, or would you prefer to do the shorter ones? So far, I've only put the Shard TFs on theme during the traditional Shardtober, so once per year.
-
Next week (30 Aug) I have no official theme (Labor Day weekend) [WSTs are Market Crash, Op Renault, Moonfire]. If you're online, @Burnt Umber was considering a Market Crash with Tradesmen/Laborer/Union Worker costumes.
-
I think it's mainly that it's summer, so people are taking holidays and/or spending time with family. Game population has always seemed lower in the summer. Going forward, we probably want to plan the non-50 themes during the summer (traditionally from Memorial Day to Labor Day)--I'd fallen into the trap when the WST was all high-level stuff (Ms Lib, Recluse, and Sewer Trial). That being said, I'm thinking of a soldier theme for Shardtober. This year, the last Saturday in October is St. Crispin's Day.
-
Great! Since we now have 4, we can try for the Mirror Image run with Brutes.
-
We may relax the theme somewhat, maybe just costume theme, since the Mirror Image badge requires a team of at least 4 and all the same AT. We'll call it at game time, and I have a new alt who needs Manti anyway.

I just got one at the end: There are Devouring Swarms that hang out near the ceilings in some places, so if you're flying over the other mobs and not stealthed they'll get you. They're like the regular Swarms, but they're named Devouring Swarm and their Sting is a massive -Fly, -Teleport debuff that lasts a long time. (Probably why ATT and TP Target also weren't picking Ban up.)
-
And of course I'd be Vet Level 666 for the occasion. 🙂 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VdOWf9JrGj5T5vRCFOFuvV90xTB3NYNI/view?usp=sharing

We can still do something this week if people are online. But this week's WSTs might be rough for 3-4 people, so if y'all have preferences for other TFs...

Looks like we're a bit short for a LRSF tomorrow, so I'm going to call it cancelled.

No, it didn't. I ended up posting Google Drive links to my screenshots of last night's GM event on Indom.

I couldn't post any images in the forums, but let's try the Google Drive links.
