Attn: Sweno, Ankhani, and Other
07-11-2008, 10:12 AM
We discussed doing Posi's TF as a 4-man (max) group with our dark characters. That'd be me on Onyx Blast, Ankhani on Ennyn, and Sweno on Smouldering
Decay, I believe.
First off, we need a fourth. I'm willing to attempt it without a tank, but I'll bow to the wisdom of anyone who has completed it before if they say
I'm being stoopid there. Dunno about the rest of ya. So, if anyone wants to volunteer... (hint hint)
Second, we need a time. I'm open most weekends and I don't mind making it a multi-night run; Tuesdays and Thursdays are my best gaming days.
And last: if there's enough interest, I'm willing to do multiple Posi runs IF we keep the team size down. I'm not -- repeat, NOT -- attempting
another 8-man Positron TF. Swear I'll shoot myself first. Ugh.
So, let's hammer it all out. Here's the thread I said I'd start.

Well, as said before, Edge Sabre's up for this particular TF. I'd say I was up for multiple runs, but I'd be lying.

Y'know, I've got a dark/dark tank in range for Posi and am also free this Sunday.

I'm good for a 3 or 4 person MAX Posi. If there gets to be bosses in every group, I swear I'll mindwipe Posi out of existance. I'm free all this
weekend.

I need to do Positron at some point on my Ice/Ice Blaster, who could really really use the badge. Really really.
However, in more useful news - I have a WP/SS tank whom I'm willing to use for Positron runs (and yeah, I'll be up for doin' a few if need be -
badges all round!).
Weekdays...okay for me, tho better if I have advance warning of course. Saturdays are generally a wipe tho.

Okay, so, looks like we're good for a first run on this Sunday, if I'm reading everyone's schedules correctly. So, I'm going to be all bossy
and stuff and suggest we go with Edge Sabre for the first run (OpMegs being the first to reply, heh), and then later on in the week tackle a run with Foxboy
and Acyl. I'll be able to bring Onyx for the first one, and for subsequent runs I can bring whoever -- including a tank who just hit 16, as it happens.
What time on Sunday?
Oh, and: If it comes down to it, I'll do the subsequent runs with Acyl and Foxboy to get whoever needs the badge, the, um, badge; Sweno and Ankh, don't
feel like you have to do multiple runs yourself if you don't want to, heh.
But I'm sticking to that 3- to 4-man only rule, dagnabbit. Blurgh. Never wanna run a big Posi group again, nossir.

I'd say, given my schedule....starting some time after 9 PST, maybe? I work that night, but if that's a problem, I can wait for a slot on
Monday when I'm off the entire day and can start fairly early.

I'm assuming that's 9am PST, not 9pm -- though if I'm wrong, correct me.
9am start works for me. It's an ugly cow-milking hour for a weekend, but I suppose I can un-zombify by then... I'll just have to make use of my mutant
Absorb Caffeine ability, and hope it does the trick
Ankh, Sweno? Not sure what time zone you two are in -- Eastern, I think? Anyway. 9am Pacific work for you was well?

No, actually it was 9PM PST. I work the night shift, which is why I lack anything resembling a proper sleep schedule.

I've got a handful of characters that need to do this task for, so I think the doing multiple runs would be a good idea. But perhaps to make it less
tedious, switch characters between runs. If I can wrangle up 3 or 4 people, I'd like to do one tonight. Although, another thought is I wonder if I have a
couple other people there to help me start it up, then they leave the task force, if I could just complete it by soloing it. It could take a while (seeing how
as of lvl 15, I have all of two attacks at that point, plus brawl) but it might work.

oh, spud you keep asking what I have slotted for Radiant Aura, and I keep forgetting.
2 x Heal IO (50), 1 Recharge IO (50), Miracle: Healing (47), Miracle: Healing/End (49)
it nets me more than 100 heal bonus
I'll frankenslot it some more after I get some purples.

Unfortunatly there is no healing purples right now *pout* but what sets can be put into Radiant Aura? Just healing sets?

So this appears to be a case of "Ignore the usual logic", because I've got my Healing Aura (which has a base heal higher than your Radiant Aura,
I believe) 6-slotted, 5 with freakin' Numina's and an additional L50 healing IO...
... and when Gamma pops off her RA, the little green numbers STILL beat out mine. Not by TOO much, admittedly, but still...
This is with my global 21% heal bonus, as well; I've got 2 Nummys, a Miracle, and a Doctored Wounds all contributing to the global heal pot, and you're
still beating me. *grumble*

well according to the detailed info:
It has a base heal value of 133.86, which I have boosted to 270.11.
according to city of data (here, have some salt), Healing Aura is the same.

Incidentally, I've got today off, so if we want to start Posi earlier, I'm up for it. Anyone got a potential time?

Well, I'll be online for about 2 hours starting at about 5:30 to 6 (Pacific, of course), but I have to take a break for an hour or so to go pick up my son
at 8:00pm Pacific. If we can clear it by then, cool beans.
