One thing I am sure about is that I will be freezing my arse off tonight.
well hope you have a good day guys...
soon ILTU have to talk you about my aquarium water problem :(
That's bad, but in a good way. :pQuote:

Simple. Tell them both that you want a signing bonus, guaranteed three years with a fourth year option and the three games before the All-Star break off to visit your dad in the Dominican. Which ever one goes for it is your winner!Quote:

Or I can go to another place and get decent knowledge, easy environment, and stability. The thing is, after a year at the first place, I'll have so much going for me I can write my own salary. Hmmmmmmmmmm. Now I just have to decide.Quote:

OK, whos on the roster for the TF?
See below -a lvl 31 or 32 should be the leader so the baddies don't spawn at lvl 36 or something. We need all SG members we can get and we may need to recruit.
Stalemate
Aumakua
Manticore Task Force
These have been less than accurate since the last patch but still helpful:
http://www.rpgexpert.com/2663.html
Basics
*Started in Brickstown at Manticore
*Team must have 7-8 heroes
*Levels at formation of TF 30-36(actual level without side kicking)
*TF members can side kick other members 3 or more levels below them.
*No one can be added after a Task Force is formed/started.
*Heroes Disconnected or who camp out without quitting the TF will automatically rejoin the TF unless all members have quit the TF or it has been completed.
*You cannot talk to contacts other then Manticore during the TF, though you may still use stores.
*TF leader will have to contact Manticore to start/flag the next mission when one is completed(later you will be able to call him as the TF progresses)
*Everyone must be in the zone(Brickstown) to begin/start the Task Force
*Sometimes a TF member will get ambushed by a group of mobs related to the TF.
*Currently, the level of the villains is set to be -1/+2 levels to the TF leader. This was tried several times, and a leader of 32 spawns 34's, while a leader of 36 gets 38th level villains. Unless this is changed, use this to your advantage when doing a TF for Manticore.
*Manticore's TF takes 3-5 hours to complete
*All members that complete the TF recieve a Single Origin(SO) enhancement at the end-if they have room
The Task Force
Once the team is formed the leader needs to speak to Manticore. Manticore is located near Swan, the trainer for Brickstown, by the Independence Port zone. The leader accepts formation of the TF and gets the first task.
Your first mission is a door mission(usually lab) defeat all. The villains you will be fighting for the majority of the TF are Crey.
The leader then sees Manticore to trigger the 2nd task, also a door mission with Crey, usually in Talos Island. It too tends to be a defeat all Crey in a lab setting. You can expect a 3rd door mission, this tends to be Dark Astoria, again defeating all the Crey in the mission.
You are a third of the way through. Manticore will tell you to defeat 25 Crey(Brickstown) before assigning the next task which is to hack into the Crey computer system. This mission can be stealthed. Just have a person with stealth go & find the blinking computer and interact with it. That will complete the mission if you are pressed for time. After completing this task, your leader will have the ability to call Manticore to flag new tasks.
You have a 90 minute TIMED mission now. This can be hard, if the server crashes, or an important member disconnects for an extended length of time, as the timer will continue to count down. I have never experienced what transpires if you fail the timed mission, so best advice- finsih as soon as possible to aviod failing it. After the timed mission, a team member will need to speak to Ms.Liberty, who is in Atlas Park.
After talking to her, you discover Councilman Birch has been taken and your TF is to rescue him from an office, typically in Kings Row. Again if time is of the essence, a team member with stealth and recall friend can locate Birch and recall the team to floor he is on bypassing the majority of the villains. Upon rescuing Birch you find out that Hopkins, the arch-villain for the Crey wants you to defeat 40 of his men in Crey's Folly before dealing with you. Defeat the 40 Crey in Crey's Folly and flag the final task.....Defeat Hopkins and his minions!
Hopkins has hired 5th Column to guard him, so expect Warwolves and Vampires. You will need to make sure that everyone has clear inventory because everyone that completes the TF recieves a Single Origin enhancement. Hopkins will also drop one that gets randomed to the group. That means everyone will get 1 but some lucky hero gets two.
Cheat Sheet
*Door Mission(defeat all-usually Brickstown)
*Door Mission(defeat all-usually Talos Island)
*Door Mission(defeat all-usually Dark Astoria)
*Defeat 25 Crey(Brickstown)
*Door Mission(hack computer, can be stealthed-can call Manticore after)
*Timed 90 minute door mission(usually Brickstown)
*Team member talks to Ms.Liberty in Atlas Park
*Door Mission(rescue Councilman Birch, usually in Kings Row)
*Defeat 40 Crey in Crey's Folly.
*FINAL TASK-Defeat Hopkins and his minions(5th Column) in an abandoned warehouse.
Task Force will automatically disband after exiting final task and leader calls Manticore.
Oh yeah, big thanks to Mr. Stalemate. Got miss dynamo some loot and dropped a few extra on her that she immediatly spent on SO's.
I dropped 350k in 30 seconds and she's still not fully SOed but she's a lot better now than before. Her powers actually do real damage again and I was able to solo normal sized mobs of tsoo of similar level for a while last night. Once she's respeced I'll be really happy with her.
Oh and the end drain isn't as bad as I thought or remembered. I do run low but I noticed that I just need to stay grounded and keep sprint off. Also, I put SO end reducers on things that needed them.
