FARMING WINTER LORDS

I went from level 15 to 20 in one night hunting WL in teams in Perez. Your team gets XP in relation to how many people took down the beast so it's best to find WL when there are few folks and to have a high level in the party to wack the WL FAST before others get there.


I will not be around this weekend (until sunday night) but I think that if you have a low level that you want to get leveled FAST that this is the best thing going. Take a group of lowbies (levels do not matter with monsters, same XP to all) and get a high level to wack the monsters. All get massive XP.

Second that. Lake in Perez is a WL factory. Have killed a few in Kings Park and Steel Canyon, but hunting is harder. Even if you're not part of a team, if you run across one and get a few hits in, you'll pick up good xp.

Learned my lesson last night about reading mission instructions before starting. Took on a door mission solo before seeing the bit about defusing two bombs simultaneously and the recommendation to bring a friend.

The lords give about 10K XP (with a maximum of 1/2 of your XP needed to level). That's good stuff divided up with only 5-6 people.


There are beasts in the normal areas now I think and I'm gonna see if I can get another lowbie up on sunday. Probably a dark/dark defender or a fire tank I have.

in reply to WL!! went from lv14 to 20 in just under 2 hours. it was early in the morning and we had a tight team going from spot to spot in hollows. count em boys, 6 lvs in 2 hours, that's 1 every 20 minutes https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif

there is one drawback. you will probably have to respec after levelling so dang fast lol.https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif

Here we go, the official Phantoms of War website is in the works. :cool:


Phantoms of War at GuildPortal.



I'm looking for a website redirection solution right now, since I had some domain names already set aside, but you can start creating your accounts and adding your characters in right now.

Forums, voting section, calendar of events, roster (detailed) and even chat are all provided. :D

There are sections for listing powersets and badges, as well as a blog section for your toons (which I've wanted to do for a while now).


I originally intended to do this all myself on phpBB, but I happened to find these guys this morning and almost everything I wanted was in there, so... why bother? :p

I also suggest you draft up some Crey Threat Assesments here and I'll link them into the website as they become available.

Yeah, I'm holding my respecs on my toons for a while and I can tell I need to respec FM already to get some initial stuff out that was useful early on, but not now. Gonna try to level Fantasy Machine or Roentgen Girl some more Sunday. I hope the winter even lasts this whole week.





BTW - There is a tech rewiring my NID and running new cable to the location that I plug my modem into as I type this. The GF called to tell me the tech saw the issues. WHOOO ****ING HOO! Well, if it's fixed later.

There is another drawback, as your Influence does not go up as fast as your XP when farming WLs. You have been warned. :)

As of about 4:00 this afternoon, WL appears to have ended. Had a very successful run yesterday and today, taking Uun from 18 to 22 last night and Night Window from 12 to almost 20 this afternoon. After trying Perez and Steel Canyon, finally found the easiest hunting was in the SW corner of Galaxy City. After 4 there were none to be found in any of the normal spawning spots.

The other oddity from leveling up so quickly, is now I have to finish up missions that are like 6-8 lvls below me. One in particular even requires two people (defuse two bombs simultaneously).

BTW, if you catch me on, can someone invite Night Window into POW?

You should charge 100,000 per level. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif

The Phantoms of War City of Heroes website was accessed through a URL redirection service which is on the fritz since the weekend and I'm debating whether to switch to another right now or wait and see.

More news to come.

Well you've got a little while - Uun hit 29 last night. Have to admit he has been leveling much faster since picking up Unyielding (and carrying much less debt). Also stopped playing Night Window for the most part.

Dude, we have to hook up sometime and do a little "Kill Skuls" or something. My global chat handle is @stalemate v.6 - I have toons on Protector and Victory mostly, but a few are available here and there too. We have 2 accounts in the house now to compensate for the whole family playing.

Our SG on Protector has 3 groups, Victory has 2. We helped launch a 10 SG coalition on Protector which is planning a server-wide event for early February so this MMORPG is my hobby now (check out the websites which confirm it). :eek2:

I'll get you in our main SG then on that server, if you want in.

Weeknights are usually when I play though... kids cry when I steal their playtime on the weekends. Babies... :rolleyes:

We've had to work out a time-sharing schedule so we can all play on the weekends. I may have to set up another account for CoH and CoV so they can have their own to play with.

BTW, for those who are interested, meatwad has started broadcasting his own radio show from www.w00tradio.net on Tuesdays as DJ Buzz (his main character'S name is Buzzerbeater).

It's metal and it's good.

If we're lucky, he will also be on tonight for the Friday Night Kegger on W00t Radio (online radio station serving the CoH community) which just happens to coincide with the Phantoms of War Friday Night After Hours Party (Numina Task Force tonight).

My boys had me install TeamSpeak for them, but I have never used it myself. Guess I'll have to look into it now! :rolleyes:

You'll get the priviledge of hearing me crunch away on Doritos Dill-icious.

An auditory treat indeed. :p

I can hardly wait to learn how to use Teamspeak, so I can hear digitally rendered munching whilst I lay the smackdown on some villains! :cool:
