Manticore recap

Ran the Manticore TF on Saturday night. As a TF, it was pretty successful — took us about 4-5 hours, I think, with only two deaths (both Amorpha, and both kind of fluky).
Gameplay-wise, it was only so-so. Since we had a higher-level Illusionist, Panik, with us, as well as a couple of other folks with area holds, a lot of what Psi-clone brings to the table was pretty limited. I basically stood back, fired off Leadership, and did Healing and RA for folks (all of which was also available from others).
It was kind of disturbing, thinking about how PC’s build does or doesn’t lend itself to large teams, vs. the duoing that I usually do with him.
Task Force write-up is here.
In other weekend news, did some running around and leveling with Fazenda/Araware. Current plans are to get them to 10 and apply for the Storm Knights.
Made a brief pro forma appearance with the Azures last night; Margie is pretty certain she’s going to restart the Mrs. once I5 goes lives, doing her up with Sonics rather than FF. Not sure if that means I’ll be PLing her via SK, or if I should restart the Mr., or what.
Had a rather keen idea related to the Transcendence Trial yesterday, and took steps toward implementing it. That’s going to be a challenge, depending on timing.

  1. Weekend Review

    Friday Worked from home, since I wanted to be there for Kitten’s send-off on the bus, and it was supposed to be a half day. Several phone calls later, around…

  2. Transcendence? The one we blew on three successive tries? Please, please, set this up on a Sunday so Avo can go along! He out-levelled it whenit was his arc, and I do so want him to get that badge!

  3. It’s probably doable on a Sunday because it’s a timed Trial, thus could be done in an afternoon or an evening and still get us into bed before 3 …
    That we can autoexemp folks down to is makes it doable again. But I’d like to hold off on it for at least a couple of weeks, for miscellaneous reasons.
