Title: Contacts in Cimerora?
Post by: DireWolf on June 26, 2008, 10:36:33 AM
Ok, so I made my way into Cimerora and ran though the History leasson and have been doing missions for Marcus Valerias. Now, are there any contacts who provide mission arcs? I gather there is a Task/Strike force (that I would like to do sometime), but was wondering what other conetent you can find there.

Thanks for the advice...

As far as I know, there are no real story arc contacts. There's one contact who gives generic non-arc missions, and there's the TF- that's it.

The TF is co-op so either hero or villain like the RWZ.  Its a blast too, and IMO the most visually enjoyable TF yet.

We've run it a few times on the Tuesday night 50's night and Im sure will again at some point.  If not maybe we can break from toys on a sunday and do that TF.

Apart from that, rumor has it that the zone of Cimerora is meant to have additional contacts and content in future issues.  Otherwise, it's as the others have just said.

It would make sense that they plan on expanding the content, then.

How long does the task force take by the way?

2 hours+, depending on how good your team is.

Oh noes. Two hours? The last time Captain Saint and his space pal Mikey ran the TF's we clocked in at 1:36 and 1:44. Two hours? feh.

The times I've been on it, it's ranged from 1:44 to nearly 3:00.  The 3:00 was a severely disorganized PUG.  Any FR run has been 2 hours or less.

Yep.  I know, 'cause I've been on two FR runs where they decided that if we hadn't succeeded in doing it in two hours, it was time to give up the TF.

Not to sound bitter or anything.  Just wanted to point out that success at this TF is not a foregone conclusion.  The last battle can be pretty painful.

Neither of the two runs I've done (one on GM, the other on Colonel Stryker) was less than two hours (one was just slightly over by a couple of minutes), and the second run was all FR members. (The first was me (as GhostMachine), Wind Wench, Marm and pick-ups) However, I've talked to people who have done it in around 1:36.
