Milrop

Let's do this again this Saturday - 22 July, 2023 at 3 PM CST. Meet in Ouroboros. We will need 18 to get this kicked off. We got past the first phase with 15 people last time, but had to call in reinforcements on the 2nd phase.

I have one I think you will enjoy. Doc Braun - Time Manipulation/Radiation Defender. Cece will bring Casualty of War - Fire Control/Energy Assault Dominator.

I hope it is not too late. I wasn't sure we could make it. Milrop: Zekill - Necromancy/Storm Summoning Mastermind Princess Cecilia: Yavanna - Electric Blaster / Dark Armor Sentinel

Joey Joe Joe is a Shield/Mace Tanker. Three of my favorite slotted powers are in the Shield category. Two are toggles, while the other is always on. DEFLECTION Luck of the Gambler - Defense/Increase Global Recharge Speed (attuned) Luck of the Gambler - Defense (attuned) Unbreakable Guard - Resistance (attuned) Unbreakable Guard - Resistance/Endurance (attuned) Unbreakable Guard - +7.5% Max HP Impervium Armor - Psionic Resistance (attuned) This can take both Defense Set and Resist Damage! I take advantage of Defense by using a couple Luck of the Gambler enhancements. This is also where I place my Unbreakable Guard - +7.5% Max HP enhancement. Finally, there is the good old Impervium Armor - Psionic Resistance. BATTLE AGILITY Luck of the Gambler - Defense/Increase Global Recharge Speed (attuned) Shield Wall - Defense (crafted - 50+5) Shield Wall - Defense/Endurance (crafted - 50+5) Shield Wall - Defense/Endurance/Recharge (crafted - 50+5) Shield Wall - Teleport Protection/+Res (attuned) Pure Defense Set toggle, so Luck of the Gambler - Defense/Increase Global Recharge Speed is used again. The rest are Shield Walls including the Shield Wall - Teleport Protection/+Res. TRUE GRIT Preventive Medicine - Healing/Absorb (attuned) Panacea - Healing/Absorb (crafted - 50+5) Titanium Coating - Resistance (attuned) Titanium Coating - Resistance/Endurance (attuned) Steadfast Protection - Knockback Protection (attuned) Impervium Armor - Psionic Resistance (attuned) This can take both Healing and Resist Damage! I use a lot of set enhancements here, and it works. Of course, there is Impervium Armor - Psionic Resistance. Joey Joe Joe is pretty set in how he is built. He sits nicely with 2889.40 hitpoints. I do have a few enhancements I'd like to get, but since they are D-Sync, I have to depend on luck in the Dr. Aeon taskforce. I look forward to seeing what others have done and will gladly answer any questions both here and in-game. My list of main characters are: Milrop - level 50 Elec/Elec blaster Joey Joe Joe - level 50 Shield/Mace tanker Annoying-Man - level 50 Broad Sword/Regen scrapper Hamuk - level 50 Trick Arrow/Archery defender Agent Carmichael - level 50 Dual Pistols/Ninjitsu sentinal Dread Pirate Joey - up and coming Dual Blades/Super Reflexes stalker +a few more

Another area to look at is in your Health and Stamina slots. Don't ignore these. HEALTH Regenerative Tissue - Regeneration (attuned) Panacea: Chance for Hit Points/Endurance (attuned) Numina's Convalescence - Regeneration/Recovery Miracle - Recovery Numina's Convalescence - Regeneration/Recovery and Miracle - Recovery are a must-have. STAMINA Power Transfer - Chance to Heal Self Power Transfer - Endurance Modification Performance Shifter - Chance for +Endurance

I've had a conversation with several players this past week about powers and enhancements. I figured I would pass on what I've learned so it can maybe help out others. In the process, I hope to learn more to help my characters. Cultivated Darkness helped my with Joey Joe Joe's respec. Two powers he suggested I get are in the Fighting pool...Tough and Weave. These are awesome toggles that I plan on getting for pretty much all of my characters. Here is how I have it slotted on Joey Joe Joe: TOUGH Gladiator's Armor - Resistance (crafted - 50+5) Gladiator's Armor - Resistance/Endurance (crafted - 50+5) Gladiator's Armor - Resistance/Endurance/Recharge (crafted - 50+5) Gladiator's Armor - Teleport Protection/+Def (attuned) Impervious Skin - Status Protection/Regeneration (attuned) Impervium Armor - Psionic Resistance (attuned) I am using Unbreakable Guard - +7.5% Max HP elsewhere, otherwise I would have it in place of the Gladiator's Armor - Res/End/Rech one. All of my Resist Damage powers have Impervium Armor - Psionic Resistance. This gives me 70.75% Psionic resistance (awesome for MoM itrials). Gladiator's Armor - Teleport Protection/+Def is a must on one of your Resist Damage powers. I placed it here to get the 4-set bonus. WEAVE Luck of the Gambler - Defense/Increase Global Recharge Speed (attuned) Shield Wall - Defense (crafted - 50+5) Shield Wall - Defense/Endurance (crafted - 50+5) Shield Wall - Endurance/Recharge (crafted - 50+5) Shield Wall - Defense/Endurance/Recharge (crafted - 50+5) All of my Defense Set Powers have Luck of the Gambler - Defense/Increase Global Recharge Speed. I am using Shield Wall - Teleport Protection/+Res elsewhere, otherwise I would have it instead of the Shield Wall Def/End/Rech one.

The Trial turned out to be a success. It took some last minute additions to the league, but we managed to pull it off. Well done to all who came to help. I plan on doing this again. Stay tuned...

It has been many months since Blighted Maiden ran one of these events. I would like to step up and lead one this upcoming Saturday. The Cathedral of Pain Trial is for characters level 40 and up. It can take up to 24 people max. There are two main phases. - Phase 1 is destroying the 3 Psionic Resonators within 35 seconds of the others. - Phase 2 is taking out the Aspect of Rularuu If you succeed, one of your reward choices can be a week-long buff (as an example, the Anger Monument buff increases all damage you do by 25%). If interested, I would like to have this take place on Saturday, July 8th, 2023 at 3 PM CST. Meet in Ouroboros. This falls after the Theme Team event and before Jup's MSR. I'll be bringing Joey Joe Joe.

Casualty of War - Fire/Energy Dominator I am able to keep Bobcat's attention while the rest of the group works on Neuron and the clones. This will get those two badges for those needing them. The Hacker badge is tricky based on where the clickies are placed. We have a person go left and another go right. If done in the 30 seconds, success.

This next one is fun. I'd like to bring Joey Joe Joe - Shield/Mace Tanker. My wife wants to bring Casualty of War again (in a new outfit). I have all the badges in these, so I can pass on the strategies we use in itrials for them if that helps.

I'd like to bring Annoying-Man - Broad Sword/Regeneration Scrapper My wife would like to bring Casualty of War - Fire/Energy Dominator

I'd like to bring my level 50 Trick Arrow/Archery Defender. His name is Hamuk.
