As part of “Villains Night,” we gathered up at the Praetorian base and chose up teams (high-level/low-level) to run the Virgil Tarikoss SF. The low-level (18 and below) team was Mister Ravenous, Charity at Home, Venenata, Ghost Maiden, Barbarity, Lord Malificus.
7:00p – Ostensible start time.
7:30p – Actually rolled from the base.
7:45p – Low-level team TPK in a room full of purples on the first mission. “Let’s try dropping everyone from Malicious to Villainous.” And lessons learned: stick together, stay near the healers, concentrate fire, pull minions.
8:15p – Get rolling again, with Atomyc Furie now on the team for more heals. Many purples. Some reds. More purples. Still more purples. One TPK. Two TPK. And, “Let’s do something else.
So we ran a couple of missions, revelled in facing yellows and whites, etc.
MR did ding up to 18, huzzah — and Health, which can’t hurt, though so dying for Stamina it isn’t even funny. Ran some of the melees with one of my two armors down, just for the endurance. Actually replaced a damage in each of my attacks with an EndRed. Let’s see how that works.
Yeah…
I forgot that you were a level or two below Ven for that mess. I mean I got excited when I saw the one mob that was Orange/Red instead of Red/Purple. Plus, Ven being the Aggro Magnate of Doooom, three Brutes were still not enough in a couple of those encounteres. ;P
I guess Merry Mayhem completed her TF with the other group.
Thankfully I got out of debt by then end of your missions. ;P
I was out of debt by the end, too. No worries. 🙂
Yeah, we were at 17, the both of us, which made it all the more interesting. Mr. R. tended to drop only at the end of things (though, ye gods, was he out of breath), but it was still pretty darned nasty. Good XP, though, even with the debt.
And, yes, I tended to see Ven dropping into orange pretty quickly.
“Purple, purple, purple….”
As ***Dave noted here, the Team Two TF was a bit of a bust. The first attempt everything was purple +4’s to Ven and +5’s and +6’s to the others on the TF. One can picture Katherine running around over…
