lvl 20 -25 Task Force this weekend?

[Murgos]

I'm interested in doing the level 20 - 25 TF this weekend now that they are fixed.  If anyone else in the guild is interested post here and well set a meeting place and time.  I would like to have at least 4 people involved if possible.  I don't think level ranges will be a problem as long as half the team is 22+ (with all the mobs being 25 and the new difficulty rules).

Post the times your available over the weekend (or tonight) and your level and lets see if we can make it happen.

I'd love to do it again, unfortunately I have finals to study for and won't be on much for the next few days.  However if anyone is free the weekend after, I'd like to set up a 26-30 TF.

[SurfD]

I am available, level 25 blaster ready to go, any time after 8 or so EST on saturday.

I am planning on being 20-22 by NEXT weekend if anyone is up for it by then. Only 18 now, and have a weekend full of golf, drinking, and being hungover (in that order) planned.

I'm a 20 Emp Defender, I'd be up for it next weekend, as I have to work both days this one.

[Murgos]

Well SurfD, it's looking like me and you.  Maybe we can pick up a couple or three random people hanging around with nothing to do and make a go of it.

I'll be on around 8 EST.  Maybe a little earlier.

Well, it is now 6:40 on my clock, and providing dinner doesent take too long to cook, i should be ready to go around 7:45, 8:00.

The Nanites, a Lvl 20 Scrapper, would throw in with this endeavor but I've some dinner plans for this weekend.

Well, for an update, our team of 6 (3 Blasters, 2 Deffenders and a Tank, with a level spread of 20-25, most in the 24-25 range) managed to slaughter our way through the villians in the Task Force, netting ourselves a fair decent amount of exp, a heaping pile of Enhancers and some nice SO's to show for it.

Heck, one of the regular Boss Mobs dropped a lvl 24 magic Endurance Reducer SO on me! [up for grabs at 15k Inf, as I am Tech origin]

Interesting note however, the Mobs in the task force almost 70 percent of the time spawned at level 26.  This makes one wonder about the mention of mobs spawning at the level max for the TF (in this case, that should have been 25).

For the somewhat bad news, while I enjoyed myself immensely, I also managed to hit level 26 mid way through the second last mission, so I will no longer be available to help out with that particular TF.  If any of our gang is looking to do the Bastion TF (level 26-30?) then sign me up :P.

Yea, I had a good time.  The pick-up group meshed very well together and we suffered from on one or two deaths the entire event.  The rest of the time we were pretty much taking down mobs as fast as they appeared in great big scrums.  The tanker being good at his job made all the difference in the world.

I got a very nice chunk of exp moving me from the begining of 23  at the start to just over halfway through 24 at the finish.  When I looked at my enhancers after the TF ended I noticed I actually had three SO's drop in the final mission.  One from completing it and (a 28 + dam tech enh) and two more off random mobs (both level 27 mutation enhancers, one +range onc + acc).  Count in the at least 100k made during the course of the TF and thats some nice dough to spend on new SO's.

It's slightly annoying that everyone on the TF doesn't get to read the overlying story information from the contact but it was fairly clear from the missions and the clues what was going on.

All in all it was a fun time and I'm looking forward to doing the 26+ one in a few weeks.

SurfD,

Ran the same mission with my SG this weekend, our highest of the seven was 26th, so that is the true cut off.

[SurfD]

Yeah, someone I was chatting to in IP earlier mentioned that the TF's are not a 5 level bracket.

Origionally, I had been under the impression that they went along the lines of:

Sister Psyche: 20-25, Bastion: 26-30, etcetera.

Seems it is actually more like a 7 level bracket:

Sister Psyche: 20-26, Bastion: 25-31, etcetera.

Now I have to decide if I want to run Clamour one more time, or kill my last bubble and get 27.
