ineffablebob Posted February 2, 2021 Author Posted February 2, 2021 I'm gonna try to be on for a couple hours each of Tues, Wed, and Fri evenings this week, probably starting around 7:30 PM US Eastern. Either red or blue, whatever folks are running. Hope to see some of you there!
ineffablebob Posted February 3, 2021 Author Posted February 3, 2021 Next week, the weekly strike target rolls over to the BastionCitadel TF! How does everyone feel about another Friday run? Feb 12, Friday, 8 PM US Eastern time - who's in? 1

cranebump Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 Looks like I will not be available Friday eve for TF runs.:-( Will be running some on THU night, if anyone's interested in teaming. Was thinking about some Redside action. I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump.

ineffablebob Posted February 12, 2021 Author Posted February 12, 2021 I've been MIA a bit this week, playing too many other games, but I'm still planning for the task force Friday evening at 8 PM (US East)!
ineffablebob Posted February 13, 2021 Author Posted February 13, 2021 Only had 3 people tonight, so we just ran a couple missions and called it a night. Citadel can go clean out his own Council caves! I'd like to run some classics next week. Should have time Monday (probably around 6-8 PM Eastern) and Tuesday (a bit later, probably 8 PM start). And if someone wants to organize another TF, by all means go for it! Doesn't need to be the weekly, just one of the classic ones. 1
Greycat Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Yeah, I've been out of it all week. (Less fun reasons. Felt like garbage.)

ineffablebob Posted February 16, 2021 Author Posted February 16, 2021 Got a few missions in tonight with @Mysterious J - only 3 bars to go to 40! Might get that tomorrow night, if the real world doesn't conspire to keep me away from Paragon City.

Might get that tomorrow night, if the real world doesn't conspire to keep me away from Paragon City. Glad to hear it! I got Medic to lvl 40 soloing the rest of Colleen Nelson's arc. I had no idea references to the Imperious TF and Nictus/Warshade existed in I0 story arcs! After I hit 40 I switched over to do Ghost Widow's arc (then switched back right after) and then I did a nearly all Scrapper/Brute ITF. Here's Medic with Lord Recluse.

I'm still a little behind you, got distracted last night getting another character through the weekly Hess TF. It's likely I'll also be using that same arc for the final stretch to 40. Glad to hear that the classic challenge process gave you a chance to see some of the older content - those of us who have played since the beginning sometimes forget that not everyone has seen all the background.
Normal Thomas Posted February 18, 2021 Posted February 18, 2021 When I played I never paid super close attention to the story so its nice to take the scenic route and see the precedent for future content and understand the lore better.

Draeth Darkstar Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 If I remember correctly, the only Hero Archetype you can get somewhat close to the original experience with is the Scrapper. Controllers, Defenders, Blasters, and Tankers have all had significant improvements to their Inherent power that made them all much more powerful, especially solo. Blasters and Defenders are basically off the table entirely since they've had such enormous buffs to the Ranged Blast sets (insant snipes, crashless nukes, DPA buffs for tier 1-2-3 blasts) and also all Blaster secondary sets (more controls, sustain powers, orders rearranged to make them better for leveling) on top of that. Controllers are a whole different animal with Containment and Overpower, they were nigh impossible to solo with in Issue 0, and Tankers have had their base damage increased by 20% on top of the massive increase to their AoE size with the new Gauntlet. It's an interesting thought experiment, but honestly it sounds like torture to me. I do wish all the best to anyone who wants to give it a go, though. @Draeth Darkstar Virtue and Freedom Survivor

ineffablebob Posted February 19, 2021 Author Posted February 19, 2021 I hope to be on a little tonight, here in about an hour after dinner! Check in the classics global channel if you don't see me in the SG list.
cranebump Posted February 20, 2021 Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Running Allison King's arc (Library of Souls). I hump it a mile, and find a door up here: What the hey...? Don't think I've ever even seen this door. Has a spiral staircase running up, but I SJ'ed it. Craziness!:-) View from the water: Heading up stairs normal like for the lulz: Then the door itself, looking back across the bay: Edited February 20, 2021 by cranebump 2 I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc.

ineffablebob Posted February 21, 2021 Author Posted February 21, 2021 The Council are hiding the Shadow Seed and only Classic Hero can find it! And oh look, a big boss guard robot: Funny, he didn't look nearly as dangerous without any End. And that was enough to get her to level 40! Finished out the mission with some vampyr smiting for good measure: It's been quite the journey to get out of that time eddy! But she made it. If others want to organize events or time to team up for their own classic heroes, I'd be happy to join in! 1
Max Firepower Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 I created a spreadsheet last week to keep track of which of my ‘current fave’ toons have finished whichever TF. I don’t collect badges per se, but I do like the accolade related ones. I was surprised that John E. Snow (formerly several names, C0ld Snap and Johnny Snow) had done Positron (OG variant), Synapse, and Yin (or the III equivalent). As Manti is this Week’s SF he may squeeze that in.
Normal Thomas Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 If anyone is free on Friday I'd be down to run Manticore.
