FP Fridays

by Anton Mercer, 14 days ago



Are you tired with those low level robes and armor? Tired of having green and blue gear? Well step right up and keep reading to find out how you can gear your self up like a pro!


A lot of us have been talking about how the state of the guild is going... (See thread)...

http://squadron7.guildlaunch.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8301931&p=30258143&gid=197725#30258143

... And I'm hoping this can help out with that. I want to start doing Fhenomal Pwnage Fridays, or FP Fridays,(yes I spelled it that way for acronym purposes please leave it alone) Starting next week (or even tomorrow if we get people on) to do flashpoints both Story and Hard Mode. I'll break each into a section to explain everything.



HARD MODES(50 characters only)

There are currently 8 HM flashpoints in game. Here is a list of them and what they drop. (Columi piece from the final boss.)
Esseless - Bracers
Taral V - Gloves
Maelstrom - Boots
D7 - Pants
Battle of Ilum - Offhand Weapon/Focus/Generator
False Emperor - Chest
Koan Under Siege - Helmet
Lost Island - DNA (Story Mode is like HM and HM is like NM Mode. Must be fully geared to complete)

Hard Mode Fps are a lot of fun and offer more challenge then Story Mode. Unfortunately it requires the special group make up of 1 tank, 2 dps, and a healer in order to really be able to complete the HM. To my knowledge we currently have 3 main tanks and 2 main healers. So depending on if all or some show groups MAY need to go like this

Group 1
Strahn- tank
Sindarial - Healer
DPS -
DPS -

Group 2
Railset(jason32) - tank
Hau - Healer
DPS -
DPS -

If there is enough for a 3rd group I will lead that group. If not I will hang around the other groups vent channels and give advice and tips if the group becomes unable to proceed because of something or another. PLEASE be aware that the groupings are SUGGESTIVE in nature and we will have to see who is on at the time and work with what we have. If we do not have the group makeup(not enough dps or tanks, etc.)I know several tricks for most of the flashpoints to at least get the group to the end boss(which would require skipping some of the other bosses that only drop crystals and no gear). So let's have fun and get some gear!

And for those who do not have a 50 character....



STORY MODE(Level 49 and below)

If there are more people on, but not enough for hard modes, we can run Story Mode Fps. Most, if not all, members have at least one low level alt and we maybe be able to get some on level Fps going. I am also willing to run low level characters through fps(Maelstrom and below) to gear them up with the orange gear that drops in normal. This is also good for 50s who have not done FPs since you are required to do the Story Mode before Hard Mode for the first 3 Fps on the list above.

I am hoping to do this every Friday there is not a Fleet event in STO(2 Fridays a month). As for start time I was thinking 1900 CST/2000 EST or 2000 CST/2100 EST. Please sign up in this thread if you can attend for next week(possibly tomorrow) and also give me your thoughts on start times.

Thanks a lot everyone!

Triple Kill

by sparrow794, 27 days ago





One of the recent additions from 1.2 are a group of 'Vehicle' quests that reward unique speeders for performing various checklists at endgame. One of these is for downing a set of different world bosses multiple times.

Some of us have set our sights on tackling this mission, and we took our first step earlier this evening... if you are interested in joining up with us for this, keep an eye out in guild chat for ops formation!

Guild Bank

by sparrow794, 34 days ago





As of the new 1.2 patch, Guild Banks are now available. They are located in a room across from the Galactic Trade Market kiosks.

However, they do have an initial setup cost of 600,000 credits. So far, 250k of that has been donated. If you have some spare credits to donate toward this cause, it would definitely be appreciated!
