A Task Force is a series of missions given by a special contact which must be completed by a single team. No new members may be added to the team once the TF starts. People can quit, but once the team drops down to a single player, the task force is over. No contacts other than the special TF contact will give you missions or sell you inspirations. While the task force is going on, you can only do task force missions. You can log off, and then log back on later to complete the TF, as long as and your teammates don't actually quit from the TF. You must fall within the level range listed below to begin the task force, though you may outlevel it during the course of the TF. People can SK up to join a TF, but may not be able to enter the necessary zones. People can exemplar down to join a TF, but if they unexemplar for any reason during the TF, they are immediately booted out. Any mapserver disconnect for either of the people in the exemplaring relationship can result in being kicked from the TF. Note: villains will spawn at the highest level of the TF, without regard for the levels of the heroes in the TF. This list contains spoilers

Moonfire (Striga Isle): The Kheldian War

[edit | edit source]
  Level Range:  23-28
  Minimum Team Size:  6
  Approximate Time Required:  3 hours
  Summary:

 * 1 - Defeat all vampyri in cave (Striga)

 * 2 - Defeat all Wolves in Cave (Striga)

 * 3 - Defeat mixed council (mosly wolves and troopers) in Council base (Striga)

 * 4 - Hunt for 20 Council (Striga)

 * 5 - Find and free hostage in council base, can be breezed through with Invisiblity and Teleport (Striga)

 * 6 - Defeat all enemies, Look for Clues (one flashie) in Council Base (Striga)

 * 7 - Take Schematics to Dr. Engles (Skyway city)

 * 8 - Defeat Archon Salavatore and his men (Striga)

 * 9 - Defeat 20 Council (Striga)

 * 10 - Defeat Arakhn (Striga)
   * Arakhn has a number of annoying traits, including Instant Healing,
     which totally replenishes her life after about 2 minutes.
     So, you MUST have enough damage dealing to accomodate for this.  Additionally, she's keen on stunning those 
     adjacent to her.

     Actually, if you stay out of melee range, you can avoid her AoE vampyric heal move. It has a long recharge,
     so then you can go beat up on her some more.

We couldn't take her out, and our attempt to complete this listing failed. Hopefully another will seize the reins and complete the guide (Wiki rocks)

  • We had more luck, beating her with 2 scrappers, an illusion / bubbler, and an emp / dark. We took out her guards, retreated, rested and buffed, then waded in. Though she kept healing (not always to full) we kept plugging. After about 5 minutes of solid thrashing she bit the dust. Everyone got an xp bonus and an SO (no badge).
