Caleb GM Spawn team

Need high end villains (lvl 40+) to help spawn GM Caleb in Nerva. Forming starts at Saturday March 1st at 12 pm PST/3 pm EST. Look for Planty Man/Planty Girl duo of domination with dirty deeds done dirt cheap by dang dandelions of doom. If we large enough we can lky lower toons. Forming up on CoT Island with Thorn Tree (where you go for villains respec mish) in Nerva.

Great Fun and Great Drops from St Martial SF

Ice Mistral loves our PWNage. From left to right:
A bunch of Ninjas about to be sacrificed for the cause, Mars Bringer of War,
Grizzly, Spellfrost, and Planty Girl and her killer pet Venus Flytrap, Frito. Back row, CoT, smited for their awesome salvage they hide in their hats and socks.


The Death Brigade is alive and well, so when you get bored of those all blue skies over Paragon, don't forget your dark side is a fun place too. I cussed out Positron for all the dufus changes to the game, like the TF/SF nerf, the economy system that is modeled from well, some bad idea. It worked, I got Hamidon Goo and Prophecy, as well as Freebird +stealth. I swear he heard me say I was gonna stuff my 21" LCD up his broad backside if I got one more Trap of the Hunter or Glimpse of Abyss drop at the end of a TF/SF.

Anywho, roll a mind/fire dom and be a FoTM, role a thermal corrupter and bask in glow of others flames (which you set), or dust off that ol' stalker and see how it handles itself. But mostly, don't be afraid to come on out.

This weekend, our wicked plans our being set. I have yet to see this Caleb GM in Nerva. You can spawn him but need help, and I plan to do so. Time TBD, I am gunning for Sunday right now.

Insert Title Here

Azrhiaz with TPVPL team, Laser Kitty a Go Go
Well many of us are reassessing our raid toons. I recommend listing your top two in a reply so we know what we have to work with. Speaking of raids, the villains are asking for a rematch. Here is a thread you may be interested in reading prior to that event. :)

I will be hosting an evasion class on Wednesday if anyone would like to come at 8pm PST. This will help you refine your reflexes using Hibernate or Phase Shift. The longer you can stay alive, the better! We can also use some blasters to help with this event.

I recently wrote an article for the City Scoop on the Test PvP League. It made the front page as well as a spot on the loader! Read it here.

A big welcome home to Baba and a huge well wishes to Ebon on the very imminent arrival of a new addition to his family! We can always use another tank! :)

St Martial SF

When: This Sunday 24 Feb
Who: lvl 35+
Where: St Martial (duh)
What: AV that spawns a zillion baddies at 50% health, good times
Why: I want the TF Commander badge on my villains. And the XP. And the Salvage. I have given up on getting a good rare recipe though. They suck and so does Positron.

Raid Team Q&A

Howdy all.

Lets get the ball rolling on the issue of PvP builds with what our team should consist of.

Got Vent? If not get it. Talking to one another instead of typing will increase our potential dramatically. Az has listed the server info in another post below. You can ask a number of people (me included) for the password online.

A great big thanks to everyone who showed up for the RoA raid. It only proved to me more that with the right combination of ATs and solid builds that we can be unstoppable. The enemy we faced was totally prepared And is ranked #2 on the SG pretige list. We lost yes but with random ATs and very little IO'd. Their victory was not handed to them. It took them over 55 minutes out of an hour to beat us. A damn good job considering.

Melqar hits the big time!


I was priviliged enough to get invited into the closed Beta testing of the Manticore/Psyche wedding. I figured it was worth taking an extended lunch for! So I was requested to come as a villain and being that Melqar is tall, I figured I'd be able to see better. If you were unable to attend the "live" version yesterday on Test, this was a special event that allowed 100 players to witness an RP wedding by the devs. They transported us to Ouroboros for this ceremony and turned off everyone's powers. We all stood and watched as Manticore and Psyche took their vows. At the closing of the ceremoney, Lord Recluse and his goons arrive to wreck the special day and he turns on everyone's powers and PvP (for about 60 seconds) ensues.

So today, they have released the official comic and Melqar is all over it! Including his own frame on pg 21 where he's beating up Castle!

I'm so giddy! LOL

Riders! Fall Down!


That's right boys and girls! The Riders of Apocalypse raid is bearing down upon us! It will be this Sunday at 3pm pacific/6pm eastern! A true test of hero vs hero and our determination will be at hand! So download the new vent info and get on it and make sure it works. I hope you leveled your toons the way you wanted and are ready for battle!

Just a reminder, Sunday Night Smackdown is every Sunday (usually). I will be holding it at 7pm on the 17th! So if you want to practice with your peers, c'mon out. Arena is significantly different than raids, but still very educational!

New patch dropped today! Read all about the new monitor system that lets you see how your IOs affect you and other sweet stuff.

So what were the results of your double xp weekend? I got Melqar to 50 (#8!) and mainly concentrated on earning some influence on Azrhiaz to IO out my raid toons. Azrhiaz is almost done and Lumeir is next. I think I made about 50 million. If you've notice, the market is just silly overpriced, so if you have any low level salvage, especially arcane, sell it now for a tidy profit! A alchmical silver normally sells for about 10k, they are going for 40k now. Regenerating flesh I sell for about 25 is going for 10k! Stupid, silly people. They can throw their money at me, sure!

Let's Get to Leveling


Here it comes, boys and girls, Double XP weekend! Either level those toons or make some influence for IOs! We've got some new friends in the SG (some of them are villains in disguise :wink:) so make sure to give them a warm welcome! I'd also like to welcome back Doctor Mercy who has been gone from the game a long time and has recently returned! We have new Vent now, courtesy of my friend Raid in the PvPEC! We have our own section, so pop on in if you like! The settings are:
Host IP: 64.34.164.243
Port: 3424
contact a leader for the password

I have cancelled Smackdown for these next two Sundays, due to the Stupid Bowl and double XP so if you have any interest in setting up some SG events, by all means speak up! Iduna needs some TFs, and I'm always up for some Katie runs. We also haven't done the Eden Trial in while and that's always fun.

If you're like me and have a boring ringtone on your cell phone, go here in the new Multi Media section of the COH boards to download some of your favorite in game sounds! Here's a good one for Colder!

And if you like cheese and poor audio, you might find this video amusing....
