Hee - I'm gettin' the hang of these mayhem missions. Just completed one
and did three of the side missions and finally defeated Blast Furnace,
who's always topped me before. I would have done the fourth side mission
but I couldn't figure out where it was - finally clued that it's ...

Ok, this is what I have so far...
Level 1: 1 zombie
Level 6: 2 zombies
Level 12: 2 zombies, and a grave-knight

Well, multiple rounds of testing and waiting for crashes proved my 6800 GT
had some kind of intermittent bug. Dammit, that was a great card - how
great I never knew until I'd had it a while and chanced on some reviews and
benchmarks - and they don't make it any more, for reasons ...

Okay, so a couple of days of soloing newspaper missions has pulled me to
33.5 or so... *sigh*.
I wasted time collecting the Lorekeeper badge - I've outleveled Tarixius.
I had the Villain badge - I've outleveled Creaky Kragen or whatever his

Ok, I've attempted two mayhem missions so far, one with my corruptor, and
one with my MM.
I can't seem to finish them. I've robbed the bank, beaten the hero, but
still no "mission completed" or "return to exit" prompt has come up.

I wanted to introduce myself to the newsgroup and say thanks to the
author of Herocia. I found the group a few days ago and followed the
link in Shen's sig to the key bind guide on Heroica. I found many
useful things there but one in particular.

Wow... I've like, discovered a huge secret.
You know how you find zones where foes are slugging it out between
factions? Like CoT and Arachnos? Pretty cool, eh?
Did you know that if you sneak up on them... they're not fighting? They're

I thought Elite Bosses were mission only. I came across a 33-34 (orange to
me at 33) Longbow Ballista in north St. Martial. Leftover from an ambush?
There weren't many players on. Or do these bastards (speak of the devil, as
we were just doing in another thread) street-spawn?

So I'm doing a little newspaper mission grinding when the red "get your
butts off now" message comes along. I finish the mish and log.
Curious, I check the web site and find:

Ok, so I've got my bot MM up to 15, and am now seriously looking at the
alternate pools trying to figure out how I want to set him up.  I've decided
on Flight for the travel power, toyed with Stealth just for the defense and
keeping my relatively squishy a.s out of the fire, but ...

Anyone else get a heavy system crash on exit from CoV? I did earlier -
screens went scrambled, system shut down and started a reboot, came up
funky with no video after the boot sequence and had to be hard-restarted.
Generated a BIOS error that the CPU speed was faulty and had ...

I mean the summon zombie power. It says you can slot in enhance heal,
enhance damage, and a few others. What benefits do these have? Do your
zombies (or robots) have more hp?

Before I accidentally entered the dead zone (that would be Sharkhead on
Victory, where there was a connect problem and everyone in the zone got a
momentary mapserver disconnect every ten seconds... it took 5 attempts or
so to move to a new spot, so if you were far from a gate you ...

Is it just me, or is anybody else out there finding Mayhem Missions a royal
pain in the a.s for MasterMinds since I-7?  I can breeze through them with
my Stalker, but when it comes to my MasterMind the pets are just too
unstable.  I regularly lose complete control of one pet - it ...
