In honor of Valentine's Day, should we replace next week's theme (15 Feb - LGTF) with a run through the KK&S arc for Spring Fling? Say, whatever character you want, but wear your wedding best? 2 2

Say, whatever character you want, but wear your wedding best? I'd certainly be up for it. The two missions are relatively short, and they also yield a few ancillary defeat badges that can be otherwise annoying to get. Also, if we do the Nemesis bonus stage, it's certainly a bit less of a headache on a team (it also speeds up the "Officiator" badge). 2
Purple Enchantress Posted February 8 Posted February 8 Also, the nemesis fight gives a vanity pet for beating it.

The Nemesis bonus stage looks absolutely crazy to solo...fourteen 54 Hero/AVs plus all the B-tier LTs. I haven't even survived the alpha yet.
Bananiac Posted February 8 Posted February 8 I am particularly keen on getting my hands on the Enhancement Rewards that were mentioned! That incident involving a nuclear accelerator and a banana… You know… I REALLY don't wanna talk about it!

I got one this morning, can get one per 20 hours, like most rewards. Looks like an interesting set bonus structure, plus a Confuse proc.
FrauleinMental Posted February 8 Posted February 8 Pics for 8 Feb - “Brute Force of Fury” - The Eden Trial (Woodsman, Level 39-41) - All Brutes, any costume @FrauleinMental Radical Flambe - Rad/Fire @TygerDarkstorm Lil Bo Peep - Staff/Rad or Cutsie Wutsie - Savage/Bio @Burnt Umber Tiny the Barbarian - BS/Fire @Bananiac Thundergodess - War Mace / Electric @Purple Enchantress Diamond Will - MA/Will Lightningforge - Electric Blaster Our initial lineup We got one more before launch, but I didn't get the global. We did pretty well clearing mobs at +2 throughout the place. Looking up at the problem. Crystal Titan really needs a less melee-focused theme, since Ambrosia is basically worthless now. 4 1
FrauleinMental Posted February 8 Posted February 8 (edited) 15 Feb - “Rikti Infiltration” - The Lady Grey TF (Lady Grey, Level 35-50) - Rikti costumes with matching weapon-based powerset 15 Feb - "Red/Blue Wedding" - Kadabra Kill (red) & Sigil (blue) Spring Fling mission (Pocket D, next to the Chalet entrance on the main floor near the Chalet entrance) - Any AT/powers, dress for a wedding! I haven't seen a level minimum posted anywhere, and there might not be one (DJ Zero's missions, for example are level 1+). It's pretty quick to run it once. Running each side gets you a badge, so we'll plan on starting blueside (hero/vig) and switching to red (villain/rogue). There's a badge for defeating all 9 signature heroes and all 5 signature villains (which requires multiple runs). I was able to solo this in 5 runs total (with 1 EB spawning in each of 3 waves of enemies), but teams might get more to spawn per run. There's a badge for getting kicked off the stage (teleported into the pool). The last badge is for triggering the Nemesis bonus run after you have both red and blue badges. I've linked the Dev Diary and the HC Wiki (which has already been populated pretty thoroughly). Signups for 15 Feb: @FrauleinMental Fraulein Mental - Mind/Kin CTRL @TygerDarkstorm Ashe Flaye - Pain Dom/Beam Rifle Defender (tentative) @ZamuelNow Ebony Gyro Elec/Elec Blaster @Purple Enchantress Bone Dandy - Dark/ Broad Sword Tanker @Bananiac Forlorne - Fire³ Blasteress @Midnyte Midnyte - Dark Melee/Willpower Brute Valentine's Day Event 2025 - Unofficial Homecoming Wiki Edited February 15 by FrauleinMental 4

But even when clearing everything it doesn't give any of the other rewards sadly.

Purple Enchantress Posted February 9 Posted February 9 (edited) If we attempt it I will bring whatever is needed, we beat it with the trials crew a couple times. Just need strong toons, pulling and focus in the right order. And when I say bug out it means the mission is "failed" but you do get the pet still. Edited February 9 by Purple Enchantress

Minor thing: you get the badge just by starting the Nemesis event; you don't need to reach completion/defeat all. Also, a few other things I've noticed while doing this: -The Nemesis event ends seemingly automatically if you defeat Lord Recluse and the Patrons, even if other heroes and villains remain. -The Nemesis event itself has all 14 signature heroes and villains that are needed for the Officiator badge, so it's handy to do that with a group to try to pick off the badge with as few runs as possible. -The Heroes or AVs that spawn with the groups seems random to some extent so you can get all the AVs in a Blueside run but need to do many Redside runs to get all nine Heroes.

All this is true, but you need to at least beat the villains to get the mini pet.

Do you need to have done the previous Valentines event to do the wedding? No, you can do the wedding without having done anything else. Only the Nemesis wedding needs having done both sides. Though you only need 1 person that has done that. @FrauleinMental And will bring Bone Dandy - Dark/ Broad Sword Tanker, though will alt to anything that's needed if we try the Nemesis wedding. 1
Bananiac Posted February 14 Posted February 14 I think I will just take Forlorne for a spin again... haven't run her in a while. Fire³ Blasteress. 1 That incident involving a nuclear accelerator and a banana… You know… I REALLY don't wanna talk about it!

Did I read it right that we'll do 2 runs, one hero and one villain? If so, I'll get a second character parked at the spot. Edited February 15 by Midnyte 1

Each run is pretty short. I imagine we'll watch the full ceremony the first run, then the shortened option after. 2

Burnt Umber Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Annoyingly, it seems domicile maintenance will be taking me away from today's runs to fix my heating. Might be on later today though. 4
