And thanks to @Agoogala, for leading the 50+2 missions team in PI.  Full team, with several baby tanks.  Lots of dings (NUT even got one more ding to VL510) and much fun was had vanquishing wolves, hydra, clocks and even got the Babbage mission.

 

@Warboss was late to the party so I apologize if I mis-teamed anyone, before his arrival.  I blame @Ronin_Around, who encouraged me to start the league. 😆

 

Yeah, I'm the bad guy 🤣

I was volunteered to lead Tinpex this time! No thanks to @PLVRIZR!

 

If I knew I was going to lead this week, I wouldn't had gotten slammed prior. Regardless, my team had a very smooth +4 speed run totaling about 26 minutes across both parts. Missions were done afterwards while I desperately tried to get any of the usual leaders to take my team over.

 

Here's a few pics! yes i forgot to take more again

 

 

Pro tip: Don't ever freeze frame Crippling Axe Kick unless you wanna see some anatomy horror.

 

 

Someone needed Unveiler, right?

 

 

Defeat All with extra clickies on a CoT map, my favorite! it's not my favorite

 

Lot of fun had this time around. Maybe I can be coaxed to lead again in the future!

As usual, I'll just blame @Warboss

 

Thanks for your help, regardless, always!

[Warboss]

At least I made it... That said, it was great to see such a turn out. I think PLV should start all the TTs on Excel just to ensure we have a large gathering... I would like to thank all the team leads we had last night. I ended up running a Citadel TF in which there was much herding and fun.

 

 

 

 

Next week we're back on Torch! See you then !

 

[Warboss]

Great fun on Torch tonight. Two missions teams (thanks for leading Ronin and MsA). I got to lead Synapse and much fun and leveling was had by all ... Except maybe PLV, who we made do the bulk of the heavy lifting... I was busy with chats so didn't get pics.

 

This Sat we're on Reunion at 9:30AM, Meet in King's and next Tuesday 7/18 we're back on Everlasting. Meet in King's Row at 6:00 PM PDT/9PM EDT.

 

See ya' then!

Hiya's... 🙂   

   I just wanted to say that this weeks TT was quite fun indeed! I was fortunate enough to gain Lady-Patriot (formerly named Minute-Woman) 10 lvl's last night, and boy was it fun to see her AoE's hitting in combination with everyone else's. So I wanted to take a moment to once again say thanks' to Warboss for having me, and to PLV for making me choose between following him or Warboss thre each mission; you certainly made it fun keeping up with you two, even though I did happen to get turned around a couple of times lol. I am not sure I will be there Saturday with Lady-Patriot again, but I will most likely be there come Tuesday (not that I finally got the time schedule right lol). Good times... 😁

WB and I always ended up in the same place, though.  Glorious to see 8 tanks herd mobs of 50+....good times, for sure.  Nice teaming with you again!

[Warboss]

Fun times on Everlasting tonight. Two ITF teams, thanks for leading Witty and Agoogala, and thanks to MsA for leading the missions team. Even  got to pick on LR himself during a bank mission afterwards.

 

 

 

 

 

7/25 we're on Indom. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT.See ya' then!

 

and... although a month away, we're looking at an MSR on Everlasting for our 5th TT in August. We'll do an instanced raid, so you'll need to bring a level 35 or higher, and have the Member of Vanguard badge. Ranged holds, immobs, and attacks are helpful in bringing down the drop ship.

 

[Warboss]

Fun times on Indom. We ran 2.25 teams. Thanks for leading the Yin TFs PLV and Ronin, and special thanks to "X" who picked up the late comers and lead as missions team while we finished the TFs. Thanks to MsA for taking the star post Yin and running 54 missions for us. My Shield/Rad got several levels and as always a good run (although during the Yin TF I spent most my time turning my toggles back on...). And apparently my Yin pics, didn't take... hopefully someone else got some screenies of the fun.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8/1 We're back on Excel to start our August TTs. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT.See ya' then!

[Ronin_Around]

Good times tonight as always, Yin Team II took things at a leisurely 35 minute pace, which resulted in many piles of Freaks

 

There a slight mishap while we were taking on a +4 Nightstar, which lead to a wipe but we recovered and left piles robots in our wake...

 

and then we merged with the other team to finish the night with Neuron which lead to more piles of robots...

 

See you all next week on Excel

My pleasure.  Yin Team 1 did not take as such a "leisurely pace" and even with a kill most (if not all) we finished in 25 min. (at +2).  Impressive, considering the number of mid-level/non-incarnated tanks on the team.  Sadly, my camera's lens cap was on, so no screenies of Clamor "going down"...  probably best, anyway.

[Warboss]

Fun times on Excel tonight. We had three teams going, one Ms Lib TF (thanksfor leading Umann), and two missions teams. Thanks for leading these Agoogala and Ronin. I have my baby Rad/Spiner (Warboss on Excel) and he went from 28 to 36 running AVs with Ronin. All-in-all and enjoyable night (even though I dropped him several times).

 

 

 

 

 

8/8 We're on Torch. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT.See ya' then! Also, 8/29 we're on Everlasting for a "5th Tuesday" MSR. You'll need to be level 35+ and have the Vaguard Badge (it will be instanced).

 

See you all then!

I know I should feel bad, but the only picture I took is starring yours truly. 🤪  I completely forgot to take any pictures prior to this.   

 

 

In my defense, after backing myself into this corner, I couldn't really SEE anything else.  And I know what you're thinking... how did I defend myself against eight spider arms with just one sword?  Look.. it's technical, okay?  But the occasional incarnate heal from the tower busting team was very much appreciated.  It was definitely close at times.   I should maybe rethink not taking Divine Avalanche...hmmmm...

That was me...one of the ways I fill the SD "no heal" hole (Rebirth) and yes, I was watching your health bar.  Your near-death experiences and my Rebirth recharge were in sync, for sure.  Full-service teammate tank, baby.

 

I have no place to talk, however, since I'm not sure how my fully incarnated, SD/Dark tank was practically one-shotted by LR, to start that sequence, so I just went over to help with the towers. 😆

 

You did great, by the way!!!

I bet he hit you with Spider Strike.  950 each of Energy and Tox at level 54.  The energy portion would have been boosted 100% by the red tower and the blue tower was giving him +30% toHit.  A few of his other attacks are energy/tox loaded as well.  Then a few lethal which probably wouldn't have troubled you too much.

 

Rad Armor seems well suited to surviving him with Energy, Tox, and Lethal res all being capped plus end drain resistance.  But it would have been much easier with a little better prep on inspirations and some P2W powers.  Since we weren't doing a Master Of, all that stuff would have been available.  Some Med Packs would have been smart.  Divine Avalanche might have made at least a small difference in incoming damage but I'd probably have to get rid of Meltdown.  Not a huge loss.  Sometimes I even forget to use that since my resistances are fine without it usually.  Mostly keep it around to help out when I'm hit by unresistable res debuffs.  Which are also reasonably rare.

 

Something to think about anyway.

Good run tonight on Torch. Three teams, two Citadel TFs and one missions team. Thanks for running the missions team MsA and thanks to PLV for taking the other Cit.

 

 

 

 

 

8/15 We're on Everlasting. Meet in King's Row at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT. Also, 8/29 we're on Everlasting for a "5th Tuesday" MSR. You'll need to be level 35+ and have the Vanguard Badge (it will be instanced). See ya' then!

My pleasure and we had a ball.  Seven tanks, with a nice mix of Ex-d 50s and 30-ishes, finished a kill through (kill most) +2/8 in 1:01.  No screenshots but the herding was glorious.  Also a shout-out to @Agoogala for taking over the team for the missions hook-up in PI, after.

[ZemX]

MsA's MIssioneers prepare for battle!  Cit teams... don't hate us because we're beautiful!

 

 

I had lotsa fun!  This was my alternate Crimson Kerfuffle who had just before TT hit 50 while rocking Rad/Savage powers.  Very similar to the Rad/Kat version of this toon.  Not really sure which I prefer.  But definitely a blast to play.  And there was much herding and slicing and pummeling on this team as always!

[Warboss]

Lots of fun tonight on Everlasting. We ran two Hess TFs (thanks for leading PLV and MsA) and one Numina's. Thanks to all on my team who had access to zones list (I never remember them). After the TFs we were able to join up with the remaining Tanks from the other TFs and take on a Kronos Titan (Thanks MsA)!

 

 

 

 

 

This Sat, we're on Reunion at 9:30 AM.

Next week we're on Indom, at the usual Tanker Tuesday Time.

The 29th we're back on Everlasting for our "5th" Tuesday Event, a MSR. You'll need to be level 35 and have the Vanguard Badge. Also a means of flight, and ranged damage, holds, or immobs are helpful in taking down the dropship. Meet in King's Row at the usual time. This will be an instanced event. We'll have a zone coordinator making sure we all make it into the raid.

My pleasure, as always.  We had a full team (some ex'd down incarnates and some just making the Hess level requirement), but blasted through a KM +2/8 in 38 min.  Notable mention to @Spaghetti Betty and @ZemX for leading the herding, as I was fiddling with team management and working with teammates to make sure everyone had TT (or had enough cash for the next event 😆).  Hope to see you, Saturday on Reunion!

[Spaghetti Betty]

I will always create the biggest mobs possible, because that's the easiest way to get other people killed!

 

I managed to catch a couple of screenshots this time as well.

 

 

Marksmen have exactly 1 more brain cell than your typical Council soldier! (Which is usually 0)

 

 

 

Pulling everything down the to bottom catwalks makes the volcano room a much smoother experience. Don't mind the fact that most of them were dead by the time I remembered to snap a shot.

 

 

I'm looking forward to getting more baby Tanks killed next week!

And I shall endeavor not to accidentally lock myself alone in a room full of killer robots!  

 

One thing we can all agree on however.   We made this look gooooood....

[PLVRIZR]

Nice pic!...and good thing Warboss wasn't in it!
