Since we're not finding the STF to be all that hard, I figure it's time to start throwing in some curveballs to mix it up a bit. :)
First on the menu: All-troller run. Emphasis on Illusion/ and /Rad toons if you have a choice, but everything's welcome.
How many people would that give us? Off the top of my head:
Me: Fire/Rad
Ephy: Ill/Emp
Vage: Fire/Rad
TW: Ice/Rad
Turtle: Ill/Storm
TT: Fire/Kin, Grav/Rad, Ill/Rad
Top: Ill/Kin
...and there must be more that I'm forgetting. Ideally we want as many Illusion people as we can get to keep up a constant Phantom shield. But really, ANY batch of 8 trollers can rock this thing. One particularly enticing reason-- 8 trollers can perma-hold through Purple Triangles, especially if there's a Jack Frost or Singularity mixed in. No tank required. :)
Anybody else up for this?
Yar, Sea Spectre would be up fer it. 'Twould need to be on the right night, yar.
I'd try just for the heck of it. Pulling the inner circle one at a time might be a problem.
There was an all-troller run earlier this week, and they discovered that there was no need for single pulls-- they killed Mako alone, but panicked when the other three showed up together. Then they realized there was no problem, because they could just keep two AVs swimming in Phantoms while the players killed one of them at a time.
The only major difficulty they had was keeping Phantoms on LR himself and not his minions during the tower segment.
That said, the earlier run had 6 Illusionists, so we'll face more challenges than they will. But whatever. It'll be fun to try. :)
Alas, I have no controller at Level 50. Nowhere close. But if you need another teammate just to get a team of 8 together, and don't mind bending your criterion a wee bit, Frozen Northman would love to run it again.
