I totally forgot about this until the bombs started to fall, but its Rikti invasion weekend. This is the first one I've been on, what a blast.

They are pretty fun.  One of the few times I group up, too.

If you get all three badges you get a costume piece or two  (I'm not sure if that is for all powersets though).  I took a MM attack power just so I could pull out my Rikti rifle and look cool.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

I've done three groups so far, two blueside and one red. Wow, that's just amazing. Dozens of people, AOEs everywhere. Plus the entire mechanic of having it more or less take over a zone. Everyone should be doing this kind of stuff.

Those are a pretty regular event anyway, they ramp up around the weekends normally because one is triggered every time someone completes the Lady Grey strike force.

Right now people are busy doing the ITF instead of the LGTF so the LGTF-triggered invasions have been fewer in I12 than before, at least on Virtue.

These are like three or four zones every hour. It's not the ones triggered by the TF.

Yeah, every now and then they reply the full invasion from Issue 11 (or 10, or whatever), so it's constantly happening.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

Yes once a monthish for the last few months they've been having these full scale invasions (upcoming schedule here). I was just commenting that before this month's full scale invasion LGTF-spawned invasions had declined because of the new shiney ITF.

What is LGTF and ITF please?

I saw one of these today for the first time.  What a blast.

I happened to be at the Black Market when Rikti invaded. I had my robots out, and just sat there serenly over the fray while my robots earned my experience and prestige. :)

I do need to look into the badges. I want the Rikti rifle.

LGTF = Lady Grey Task Force. It's the TF that you get in the Rikti War Zone.
ITF = Imperious Task Force. New TF in the new Cimerora zone.

For both you need to be 35+ and can be done on mixed teams (Heroes and Villains together).

Some other TF acronyms:

STF = Statesman TF
LRSF = Lord Recluse Strike Force (Villain-side)
MoSTF or MSTF = Master of Statesman TF (STF with special conditions like no deaths for a special badge)
MLRSF or MoLRSF = Master of Lord Recluse SF
