The Energon Pub

Well, my remaining tasks:
- 3 Fp-lock (if I concentrate on it it'll be easy)
- Outnumbered at least to 2:1 and win (first of the tasks I'm afraid of)
- Single-level Top (could happen)
- destroying 2 Jets
- destroy a car
- win a 2:1 outnumbered mission (I swear, it'd be easier to be a pred sometimes)
- timeout win (the hardest task)

My tasks left are:

• Stasis lock 3 with punch. I have one done, two left to go. I reformatted one into a brawler to get this done
• Be the sole survivor in a mission with four combatants. I have a plan on trying to get this done.
• Stasis lock 3 in a single mission. Have done it before, hoefully I can do it again. Best chance is with my strafers and hopefully getting lucking with my power guys.
• Be the only one to stasis lock participants. Have a plan for this one as well.

All of them are achievable. It will take some time and a bit of luck. I do not envy the 'Cons on having to get the timed out mission one.

My remaining tasks:

• Stasis lock 3 opponents with a punch
• Only survivor in a mission
• Stasis lock opponent 2 or more levels higher.
• Stasis lock a truck (got the jet and tank for this one)
• Stasis lock 3 tanks

I'm getting there.

ARE THE LIMITERS IN PLACE???

Steve's Repair Bot attacked me a total of 27 times in the mission... is the timeout even possible?

I have a similar problem. I can't find more than one fellow Decepticon with one of the two Soundwave-esque alt modes (of course, my team's only 0-1 in terms of level...) for the first Iacon task.

At least I found the three car Autobots...now to do some stasis locking.

Speaking of that task, what exactly does it mean "win a mission after it has timed out"? Is it one of those "outmatched and running low on energy" things, or is it something else?

Yeah. When one side retreats and the other gains the victory from them retreating. It will say it at the end of the mission.

Two tasks left. Be the sole survivor in a mission of at least four combatants and be the only one to stasis lock combatants in a missions. Hard but still very attainable in the time that is left.

One more question (I'm sure people are getting very annoyed by now):does the casette player alt mode have to be one of the specific two casette players Jeep! used as icons to explain the first Iacon task?

Any cassette player will do I believe.

Argh, I'm not getting any time near a pc. I've got 18 missions to cross check for six tasks [/annoyed]

Any cassette player, as has been mentioned already.

There's no limit to the number of attacks a mech can make in a mission, nor can I remember how long the time outs are. But I do know that time outs are longer in missions than the arena.

pft 22:43 is the longest mission I've seen since the retreat function came in, me Burn Psych Red, CJB, and fists had a medical mission with minicons and bot modes.

it was fun.

Myself, CJB, Burn, Jeep and a few others have a more recent mission that made it 22:30, so it's still possible. No Minicons or robot modes, but several medics:

Interesting...

Soo, why is it possible to a level 0 con to time out at 5 mins, and not for 22+ mins?

Cos level zeroes are boring



This is a pain.
All my missions are useless for these last few tasks.

this is my very sketch recollection of what glyph didn't go into much detail with but;

i beleive it's to do with the number of TFs who can enter a mission(or number of TFs in a mission), so the 10 a sides time outs take alot more turns to activate the retreat function as as the 6 asides the level 0s get

remember that actions are not turns, and only have a very shakey relationship to the time stamps, there are turns you don't see (according to glyph anyway) where you select targets, and do other things

One more stasis-lock-by-punch and I'm done. Time to drop all weapons and hope my characters get lucky...

...and I'm done. My weakest character came through here, giving me the last stasis-lock-by-punch, for 40/40 tasks done and 100% of the objectives completed.

Congratulations Scantron!
Don't let that put anyone off trying to finish, though, as there's still two days left to try to get as many claims as you can - and there's still the big picture of the two warring sides to sort out!

Proof that Unicron lives

Only one more left for me. Just need to be the only one who stasis locks anyone in a mission.

PM me which character you want outfitted with the force field and I will award your prize when the competition is over.

ARRRRRGGGHH! If only I could be the last man standing in a mission with enough participants on each side!!!! Then I could end this madness. I've been in several where someone on my side did it. Sometimes I hate the RNG.

Sorry for the venting onto good news, CONGRATS Scantron Way to win one for the bots for a change.
