OK there were some misunderstandings and the third run has been canceled. However there might still be 3 or 4 teams (4 if Poochie can find some people to join him) so if you haven't done so, select your team. Team runs will resume starting today, contact your team leader for times or check the group's events tab by hitting the G key in-game.

Dedicated Team 1-40 run night 2 tentatively scheduled for Fri Jul 29 starting at 6p server time (will likely be closer to 6:15, depends when I get on). The run can easily be rescheduled to Sat Jul 30 if needed. Drop me a note either here or on Champions to confirm availability.

Ok reminder that the next casual run will be Saturday 30th 4pm - 6pm PDT/Server Time
I'm prepared to push the finish time a bit to push for lvl 14 if we haven't hit that as I'm REALLY looking forward to getting SS CON and a better block after the elite roflstomps last night. (also getting jealous of just how good the tempest AT is!)
I'm noticing that there are some holes in my gearing which I would've expected to fill solo.
I'm guessing we'll be planning our gearing mostly as below so maybe we'd wanna do a quick drop swap before starting out on Saturday.
Behemoth - Strength, Constitution, (Rec/End) Specialist - Dexterity, Ego, Strength, Rec Tempest - Endurance, Recovery , Dexterity, Ego Grimoire - Intelligence, Presence, Endurance/Recovery
Now Blood Moon weekend I need to change my availability. Angie will need Saturday to finish the PvP perks as the PvP drops off massively on Sunday (also want a lvl40 Cowards Lament). So I'm gonna suggest we swap that day to the Sunday and maybe do some specific BM team farming for useful gear?

(also getting jealous of just how good the tempest AT is!) Yes, Overdrive sure looked impressive while being roflstomped in under a second by angry mob hordes. Tempest - Endurance, Recovery , Dexterity, Ego I found that pushing competing stats (such as Rec/Dex and End/Ego) doesn't work all that well during the leveling process (gear sucks), before 40 I'll just focus on End/Rec with some Con in the defensive slots. 40 is were the gearing opportunities really open up (due to SL Elite gear), but that's far away.

Well the 'tank' Airman wasn't lasting any longer! It was the raw dps that was shining thru there tho.

Yeah - I'm mostly thinking if we play on elite we could use plugging a few gaps in gear and but the Blood Moon idea is mostly focused on grabbing useful devices like Nimbus, any useful blues would just be a bonus.

True, farming for nimbus would be a good idea I think. We can sure use every bit of defense we can scrounge up.

Supercollide - I don't know if that's the behemoths idea for stats or yours, but i might recommend Int/Rec/(End) instead of Pre/(Rec/End). Behemoth should be generating threat by challenging strikes/crippling challenge, and a focus on Int/Rec as secondaries would help a lot with its energy management issues.

True - after adding both CC & CS last night Mobs are practically opening doors to find me! I really should've changed my post to match that (will do it now). Thematically INT's not a good area for Lost Airman which is why I'm preferring Rec/End but we'll see what gear we get on the way.

Actually our weakness being me (don't know how to play the specialist effectively) and the lack of healer until Void reaches 17. Considering "changing" the power set to savage (using the become device until Specialist gets FotT) so that collide and I can tank while Ace and Void do their thing. We'll see how it goes next playthrough.

So, i have no chat whatsoever. I'm logging off for now. Hopefully hardcore didn't want to try to play tonight, although i'm not sure how we would since we absolutely can't communicate in game. Bleh.

Hardcore SquadSchedule: Almost daily, close to 6pm until 9 pm server time.Difficulty level: Leader: Talia Armada@joh_hota - Casus Bella@squirrelkiller
- J'Val Kor'el@Kestremel
- Rime@Eighto
- Wolfpack@JaxtonDragoon
