And the lead was level 20?  Because I've never seen this one go this bad unless it involved starting at under 20 on a SF that always bases enemy level at 20.

 

Still had to have something to do with level.  All-melee just isn't THAT bad unless a lot of them were under level and sidekicked (ahem.. sorry.. lackeyed) up.

 

The lead was 19.

 

Truthfully the worst of it was the early missions with too many people running off as if solo, or pulling way too much. It got much better towards the end.

It was, on both accounts.

 

At a certain point it goes from being a train wreck...

 

...to a train wreck witnessed from an RV while having Thanksgiving Dinner with the one uncle with odious political views during a natural disaster. 

 

However, I am proud of the four others who stuck it out out of the eight we started with.

wait, you did 2+ hours on a Tarikoss?  I could make a new toon/outfit/PL them, and SOLO a Tarikoss in that time.  I am 98% sure about this.  It might take me a while to get the name, I get hung up there sometimes.

True

I know a TF running that long (that is not supposed to take that long) can be a real pain.

However, the ones I’ve been on like that usually turn into pretty funny runs.  Mainly because the people what do stick around, realize it’s a disaster and just try to make the most of it - usually with a lot of humor.
 

 

 

I've had the same experience with rocky starts... they end up being the most fun by the end, or maybe it's like Stockholm Syndrome

Yeah, shouldn't have invited the Stalker, but I was not the one in charge. 

 

In reality, the Stalker was a star.

Hehe don't underestimate stalkers, the AT is actually in a really solid place right now. IMO Stalkers are kinda like Keldians, either you are wondering how they managed to find their way out of AP/mercy or you are taking notes on all the new interesting shapes that bad guys can be folded into, with little in between.

You're the hero all true warriors strive to be, Snarky.  I repeated the first mish of Virgil Tarikoss TF to get some of my defeat badges from that Legacy Chain enemy group.
