sector 42 - September 30, 2006

[ninor]

WEll was a worthy attempt, share ur ideas and suggestions...


I personally think we need more practice with bosses instead of pure boring axp runs.

north raid force died at general, the rest killed them...hmmm

[TheJackal]

Sucks that I couldn't attend, but nice try.

I'd also like to know if I can make any more improvements to the bot to make it easier to raid. Thinking of seting up 2 more bots so they could make some kind of network if it's needed. Anyway, suggestions are welcome =)

[keeperiz]

West: Died from Adds from gen
North: Died from Gen
East: Killed gen and currently tba about what is happening

[kevoupe]

it went suprisingly well considering it was the first attempt.

thanks to FC for 1/3 raidforce going LD at the start.

West, North, East towers went down at about the same time.

West Group died from Gen adds.

North Group died from Gen adds.

East Group killed Gens successfully and no airstrike for the remainder of the timer. (around 20+ minutes)

Also, no new boss in middle after towers go down, probably have to beat every general and then have 10 minutes to kill final boss heh.

north raid force died at general, the rest killed them...hmmm

did u tank it ?

[kevoupe]

We really need more docs for this to work, North only had 2 so I sent them one and then one afk'd heh.

Need a few more for west as well.

Had 4 docs for west,
2 docs for north,
3 docs for east

North and west definitely need more healing and less afkers

[ninor]

North also got sort of lost and lsot a few too many on way there. that doesn't help.

And peep need to learn to read forum and listen and follow leaders. AS a suggesetino for the bot i would hope for !faq comand which shortly gives basic tactics.

Also some kind of better map might help.

[Luiza]

did u tank it ?

nope

[Traderjill]

East went realy well. Arrien did a great job RLing and Tamm/Ufthak were ubah on the tanking (they had ubah heals too *cough*). All in all, it was actually a lot of fun and I'm up for doing it again whenever someone's ready.

The only suggestion I would make is to give more notice as to when it will start because I'm betting a lot of people that signed up didn't get the opportunity to see the actual start time for today.

[Healyhatman]

Yes people like me who was excited, woke up to see the raid had finished. Didn't even get a tell sent to me to let me know (which I would've received when logging on)

[Doctorhyde]

Also, no new boss in middle after towers go down, probably have to beat every general and then have 10 minutes to kill final boss heh.

I'm still hoping that the Generals function as Pilots, and if all 3 die the beacon / airstrikes stop ... only 1 way to know

[Healyhatman]

So when is the next one scheduled, same time? And what time was that sorry? And will we maybe get some notification happening?

[kevoupe]

Sorry healy, I'm not going to send 80 people individual tells, instead just check the original thread which I've updated over the last few days..

Kev- I agree with you on the indvidual tells, that's a bit overboard. I just wanted to clarify my post. I don't expect an individual tell but maybe 2 days notice on timing would allow people of different time zones ample time to actually workout real life committments and attend. I don't know what time you actually updated the thread with the start time, but the day before (USA Central) there was no time before I went to bed. I actually logged on the next day in the morning while drinking my coffee and noticed an update with the time but that was about 5 hrs before start time.

So No to individual tells and Yes to a couple days lead time on what day/time it will occur. I commend your efforts in getting that all organized. You did a great job, too bad we didn't get the results everyone wanted. I'm looking forward to today's attempt, if I"m online.

[Healyhatman]

Or at least more notification than "people gathering now join bot" ><

Or were there infonets and such sent?

[Vlain]

Every little bit helps:

This may be something people are already doing, I'm not certain...but we all have certain perklines which are interdependent on perks from other profs already running.

I have this perk 'incapacitate' (-1300 inits) which I never even have in my shortcut bar because it depends on a perk chain from two other profs (requires adv's bleeding wounds, which in turn requires an enf's disable natural healing), which never happens. I was thinking in the case of these difficult bosses every little bit helps, so we should all try to make sure we are making use of all means available.

I'm not suggesting people need to readjust their perklines to facilitate the use of these lines, rather we should make sure we are using all the ones we currently have available. As I mentioned before, others may already be doing this, but I thought it was worth mentioning to feel out if there are others like me with these perks just rotting away unused.

[Awikun]

I was crashing and LD so much at the time that I did not even tried to join raidforce as it would not work in my case

[Kazbah]

North failed due to people LDing and dying before we even got past the first group of aliens and people following the west raid instead of carrying on north, not knowing the directions didn't help and getting worried about the fence even thought it wasn't difficult at all

[TheJackal]

The only suggestion I would make is to give more notice as to when it will start because I'm betting a lot of people that signed up didn't get the opportunity to see the actual start time for today.

Admins of Neutnet could start to add clans to the 42 group as we did with some Omnis. Should give you an opportunity to get spam from raidleader when gathering starts.
