With the players spread from 44 to 50, we could SK\/RSK as fit the person whose mish it was, and we basically rolled through the missions &#8212; Hype doing his juggernaut imitation, Amorpha and Kin doing massive damage, Puck and Noelle and PC locking them down, and Shock keeping us alive.  Good times.<br \/>\nOf the not-yet-50 crowd, <strong>Amorpha<\/strong>&#8216;s about half a pip from 45, and <strong>Psi-clone<\/strong>&#8216;s around 2 pips, with similar proximity for Puck Bunny to 46 and slightly more for Hyperthermian to 50.  And, since I expect we&#8217;ll see at least one more repeat over the weekend, I suspect we&#8217;ll get a good chance to all ding by then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Kate and Aaron, two of our regular CoX co-players, visiting, it was no doubt inevitable that we would end up in some sort of mass CoX play session.
