From the Ridiculous to the Sublime

2006-01-30_infernalwithzeph.jpgHad the first Official Monday Munchies night. Ho Ho and Princess Peep ding(dong)ed up to 8. I’ve never done low level missions with a full team of solid players, and that plus the jokes made for a very enjoyable time.
Next week — the Hollows. I expect we’ll have the whole zone cleaned up by the time we finish. Certainly we should plow through to Frostfire.
After that, Psi-clone and Amorpha joined up with an elite band — including Emerald Shrike, Avocet, and Seventy-Six — to bring Zephyr-Storm home to 50. Clean and tidy through Dominatrix and Infernal — indeed, it was the first Infernal mish I’d been on where nobody died. And it wasn’t that there was a full-blown Empathy Defender and a Controller with Empathy secondary. I did a fair amount of buffing, but very little healing — the team was that good.
Well done.
UPDATE: Gah! Forgot Puck Punny, even though she’s standing right there in the frelling picture. Sorry, BD.

  1. Yes…
    We sure did. 🙂
    And yes, that was the first time that I had done that mission with out any deaths too. An impressive feat to say the least.
    Now, the funniest one was Noelle’s Infernal mission. 3 girls, 4 guys.
    At the end of it…with several deaths by Barometra…it was just the Girls standing (Puck, Noelle, and Berometra) over Infernal, while the guys all ate floor.

  2. The first time I ran against Infernal — also with PC — what I remember most was Shock.Therapy off to the side teleporting the dead heroes away and rezzing them and sending them back in to fight. Over and over and over again.
    Somewhere recently I saw a suggestion that, after (carefully) clearing the front of the temple, it’s possible to pull Infernal up toward the door, and so engage him without having to deal (until afterwards) with the portal. Haven’t tried that yet.

  3. Sorry I missed Zepher’s big ding, but getting all those levels for Snap (8 in two days!) just took it out of me!
    🙂
    And BD, that’s my favorite Infernal run, too.

  4. Granted that early-level dinging comes fast and furious anyways, it’s still amazing how fast the group as a whole is chugging along.
