Death of the Destroyer: Who got a piece of the Assassin?

NanoTM

Here's a shot of my little piece of the Assassin. I even managed to grab a couple flies from him as a souviner. SMILEY

I got in 2 or 3 shots on him in sobra on recursion before getting myself killed and I wasn't able to catch up to him after that. Forgot to take any screens was a bit occupied trying to hurt the assassin and not get myself killed :smileywink:

I only managed to get in a few hits on Saturday, before he smacked me
down. My sunday schedule meant I couldn't really do anything to
him SMILEY

Only got one screenshot which I haven't uploaded anywhere yet, But I am
in a few of the ones Teizz posted. I got a few shots in but
wouldn't even guess how much damage I might have done.

Osiris II, captain's log. Entry 2005/10/02.

Today we fought the Assassin.

I joined in the fight in Uriah shortly after the Assassin showed up. We played tag among the containers for a while...

...then the Assassin hyper-jumped out of the fray and onto a nearby rooftop. I was right on his heels and we went 1-on-1 with him for a few seconds (the **bleep** [the "**bleep**" stands for "illegitimate son" :smileyvery-happy:] hit hard; I consider myself lucky to have survived the encounter). Fortunately, Enon (also a True Mind, but from another ship) was soon at my side and before long the fight flared high again all around us...

...and we fought and the Assassin ran away. We cought up with him and he ran again. Unfortunately, I lost sight of him shortly before his final defeat, and thus was denied the pleasure of delivering the final burst of "Green Fire" or at least witnessing his demise.

Shortly after the Assassin's destruction Niobe summoned us to a meeting. Unfortunately, the load on the Matrix in that sector was too high from all the Redpill activity and my emergency jack-out circuits kicked in. When the uplink stabilised at last and I was able to jack back in I was told by other Redpills they experienced the same thing. I haven't been able to find out what Niobe had to say.

Note to self: Ask my Operator to provide visual cues to my target's relative direction in the future.

Aah I was so close. But well I still got a CQ point SMILEY

Over on Recursion, our faction (The Business) was staking out The
Church of the Disciples in Mannsen Park. The Assassin showed up
and we started attacking. I got about 10 hits while he was under
the overpass, then he let loose with his lightning attacks and killed
me. Luckily, a faction mate rezzed me, and I rejoined the
battle. He gave a bunch of guys the slip and ran to the other
side of the church and up on the catwalk over the road. I
followed him up there along with 4 or 5 other players and got a few
more hits in before he killed me again. He ran back down the
catwalk, pushing my body along in front of him until he finally got
around me. I reconstructed since most of our faction was
down.

With many hardlines in the area down, it took a while to
find one that worked. I jacked in at Stamos Central and made my
way back to the church, but by the time I got back there, the battle
was over and my faction had moved on to Midian Park where they were
engaging him again. Unfortunately, as I was heading for a
hardline to join them, I crashed. I sat through the "Charcter is
already in use" for a few minutes, and when I got back in I made my way
to the nearest hardline.

Midian West was up, so I came back in
there and ran to the park. Before I left the hardline, I switched
loadouts to Doctor, since it seemed it didn't matter what your loadout
was, the flit gun dealt the same amount of damage, and I figured I
could help rez some people. Once I got there, I landed a few more
hits, and then everybody timed out.

Sat through the "Charcter is
already in use" again, and managed to get back in, land a couple more
shots, and crashed. Sat through the "Character is already in
use". Got back in again, but the battle in Midian Park was over
and it was now in Eshean Projects or somewhere, but I never got the chance
to join them because I crashed and once again sat through the
"Character is already in use", then got to the "Negotiating with
servers" and timed out about a minute later. Sat through the
"Character is already in use" AGAIN, got to the "Negotiating with
servers" and timed out again. Sat through the "Character is
already in use" ONCE MORE, and finally got back in just as Tyndall
announced that Niobe wanted to see us, made it there, logged the speech
because none of my faction mates made it there in time, and the area
crashed.

Got back in, was missing my faction tag, but a quick
/jackout and all was better. Then we took care of faction
business, reformed our faction with our new leader (01001011), and that
was the end of my night.

Whew.

yeah, i got several blows on the assassin, it was fun chasing him all around the church of deciples in manseen, i did a few hundred damage to him before the whole server lagged out, we all got booted, then when i was able to get back on, along with everyone else in manseen on the recursion server, no one was able to see the assassin that was standing right next to them getting his final blows from the ones who were lucky enough to not have lagged out, it just doesnt seem fair to the rest, btu atleast a machinist got the mask, which is was our main goal in the first place, but besides that it was fun, i did1-200 damage to him at 10pts damage each blow, but we did it, all the assassins got killed, heres a pic of me and a whole group dead from his electrify attack, that guy killed me in 2-3 blows everytime, i wouldve tooken more pics but i was so busy chasing him, landing blows and die'ing

I fought the assassin at mansenn, on the recursion instance. As many of us, I repeatedly pressed the hotbar button assigned to the flit gun to spread some green insecticide towards our masked friend. And, as many of us too, I forgot where the f10 button was to get a screenshot.

You know, when you´re trying to save the matrix for its doom and avenging the Morpheus death, you don´t have time to take photos... SMILEY

On Syntax I got him a bit here of some screens.

this one i was chasing him alone then you see what happens

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a65/DeaconFrost34/screenshot_201.jpg

here was fighting in chuch good him a few good times

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a65/DeaconFrost34/screenshot_201.jpg

also got him outside of chuch but got no screenshots

When i went over to my Vector character Hachimantaro is where i did good. Took a lot of health from him and was one of the last people giving him hits but not close enough to get a mask. I don't have any screens from this because i was pre-occupied at the time but it was down in Uriah.

**The Cailleach**

I wasn't admiting to using the bug, it wasn't like I intentional did it. I didn't even know what was going on till after it was over I got on the boards and looked it up. For that matter it took a jackout just to get rid of it something I didn't have time for at the moment it was happening, besides he was about beat by the time I got there. If SOE is going to ban me for something that wasn't my fault after six months of spotless behavior then I feel sorry the state we're in.

"Additionally, one redpill found the hardline to the garbage barge,
and killed that aspect of The Assassin. The identity of this redpill is
unknown. Perhaps he or she will report their experience to their
Organization.

The flies began to fade. Mopping-up was necessary.
Organizations sent redpills on missions to do so, for which they were
rewarded by a special memento: a fly in amber."

I got no such fly, and was there really a player that did so?

I hit the Assassin a few times while yelling stupid battlecrys =D

I had a GREAT TIME! Best event IMO

**Cyrrus**

Heh, I was so excited when I saw the Assassin in Sobra Shores on vector. He was just kinda standing there getting sprayed. Got about 7 sprays off at him before he pulled one of his attacks, which pretty much killed me instantly. From there on, it was a struggle to keep up with him. Landed a couple more sprays just before he died, so I'm pretty satisfied with the event.

Sure I didn't get the mask, so what. The lucky ones should get to keep them, and I hope this will open up to more unique event items. This will make gameplay more intereting the way I see it. Like this, the ones who participate in the events really have a chance of becoming something special in the Matrix, and that's what it's all about. Good job devs, keep the events coming!

**Kronos9**

Well i hit the Assassin twice with my Flit Gun it may not of done alot of damage but i liked to think it helped us end him just that much sooner..but the bad part is do to the lag on the server after my two hits i crashed and couldnt really get back in but no worries i helped some..sorry no screen shots i was too excited to remmeber to take them.
