Tanker Tuesdays

[Warboss]

Looks like you all had a good time. Sorry I had to miss it. Thanks to everyone who showed and a special thanks to all who helped organize and get teams going.

 

I should be back next week, so we'll see you on Everlasting on 2/15!

[Kiloton]

Great team on Everlasting tonight.  Had a new tanker, started at level 1, finished at level 31.  I think that's a new TT record.  So many AVs "arrested."

Two missions teams tonight on Everlasting. Much fun, much Tankage and much leveling! Thanks Kilo for taking the 2nd missions team and thanks Ronin for supplying the bulk of the missions from Team 1.

 

 

Yep, that's a dumpster, but looks like my video didn't get all the mobs... trust me there were a lot!

 

We're back on Indom on 2/22. Meet in King's Row by IP Gate at 6:00 PM PT/9:00 PM ET.

 

Also, we're on Reunion this Saturday the 19th. Meet in KR by IP gate @10 AM Pacific time.

 

 

[Warboss]

Well... and interesting time on Excel tonight. Two teams both running Manti. Thanks for leading the 2nd team Pep. I didn't get pics of anything but my network connection.. .which I'll share for fun (green = good, red = bad).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah, well... I needed additional debuffing...

 

We start March with TT on Excel, 3/1. Meet in King's Row by IP Gate at 6:00 PM PT/9:00 PM ET.

 

** Also it looks like our first "5th Tuesday" will be an all Shield ITF on Excel (March 29th).

Countess Crey and Hopkins went down.  Word to the wise, Crey were seriously buffed last page release.  They are no joke.  Especially when you are facing rad Paragon Protectors.  Also, many AVs were burned.

More murder, er, "arresting"

[Kiloton]

Last pics, if you're a tank, regardless of server, we get shit done.  Training until destruction.  All levels are welcome:

on Tanker Tuesday.  Join us. 

Mostly doing the Weekly Task Force for tanks who are in the level range.  Always run a level 50 missions team for folks who don't want to, or can't do the WST.  Something for everyone.

Independence Port gate in Kings Row.  Every Tuesday, 9pm EDT/EST.  Check out the signature line from a post from Warboss in this forum, to see what server we are on which week.

I look forward to training you.  It's a trial by fire for all tanks.  If you can dodge a wrench on TT, you can dodge a ball.

I must admit that the Crey buffage did take me by surprise. And, although I'm not opposed to making the game "harder", I am a bit disappointed that all factions are now basically becoming the same. Crey debuffs = Carnie debuffs = CoT debuffs, where as they used to be different unique groups.

And here's why:

 

Not every NPC that uses Enervating Field has this unresistable version of it.  Antimatter does.  Bile does.  And apparently so do Paragon Protector Elite (Rad Defender version) bosses.

 

I've also found just about any NPC that uses Tar Patch (or one of it's clones like the Dark Knights in Night Ward do) has the unresistable version of that too.

 

Tar Patch you can run away from.  If hit by this EV, running away doesn't help you... but it does help the rest of your team.

@Warboss...goes a long way to explaining why the Rad tank(s) struggled [for the first time in a LONG time]...  Glad I brought a shield tank.  😝

[Warboss]

Well, I won't deny the debuffing was a pain, but here's what my current network graph looks like. Compare this to what I was up against last Tuesday... so yeah, I had massive debuffing going on in game and RL...

 

That's what it should look like.

[Warboss]

I may run a solo test on Manti and see if the results are the same w/o the network issues.

[Warboss]

A busy day in RL IT land, I'm still at work sorting out issues, so likely will not be on time for the TTT Excel start. I'll catch up as/if time allows. Vet TTer's, you know what to do. Take care all, hope to see you soon!

I've never done a TT. Is it a good time to roll a new tank and play? Or would you rather have 50's for incarnate stuff etc?

 

Also, Is it at 6 EST/7 CST/9 PST?

 

Edit: apparently I don't know how time zones work.... 9 Eastern/6 Pacific. Which is too early for me 🥺 I am one sad 🐼

Rolling a new Tank is fine, the only requirement is that you are a Tanker.  Time is 6:00 PM Pacific/9:00 PM Eastern. Not sure what time zone you're in but we usually run a missions team that tends to have room towards the end of the event.

[Warboss]

Well... I made it on much later than I hoped but was able to get on Kilo's mission team and get three of my incarnates unlocked, so not a bad night. Thanks Ronin for getting the event rolling and running Moonfire. Also thanks to PLV for leading MC and to Kilo for running the missions team. Much fun was had by all.

 

3/8 we're heading back to Torch. Meet in King's Row by IP Gate at 6:00 PM PT/9:00 PM ET. Also the 29th will be our 1st 5th Tuesday, so we'll be running all Shield ITFs on Excel.

[Kiloton]

I got calls from the KKK, ASPCA, and waste management tonight.  Unai is a great mission contact.  Much XPs to be had by all.  I think I got 4 vet levels.

Turns out, you can stack a lot of bodies in a dumpster.  Fun fact.

My pleasure, for sure.  NUTCRCKR and the gang were a g-d wrecking crew and defeated Crimson robot-douchebag before the 33rd minute (at +2, since we had a couple non-incarnates).  Also thanks to @Pep Rally for leading the subsequent missons team...where many evil Malta were vanquished, as well.  Great fun, much leveling.  Looking forward to Torch, next week.

[Warboss]

Fun time on Torch tonight. Almost three full teams, and best of all plenty of new TTer's! Thanks Pep, PLV and Ronin for leading teams, TFs and missions!

 

3/15 we're heading Lor's home on Everlasting. Meet in King's Row by IP Gate at 6:00 PM PT/9:00 PM ET.

 

3/19 We'll be on Reunion, 10:00 AM Pacfic

[PLVRIZR]

My pleasure, as always.  Many evildoers vanquished, many levels attained.  Numina is always a grind, but the team performed the hunt missions, near-flawlessly.  1:18 at +2/8 with seven tanks.  Well done!
