If we get a date, I'm sure I can bring all the smurfs back for a one-night appearance too of course. That's another 8 top veterans that tried the first 2 hamiraids villain side.

Awesome

Ill prob wait a month or so after the heroes hamidon raid before trying the villains one due to RL issues, stupid coursework why can't it just do it's self

Update, I've tried to fit everyone into their most or second most desired spots, i am going to have to be a lot more stricter this time with archtypes on teams to make sure that teams can perform there duty's with little problems. Blue team only has 2 more blaster spot left, which funny enough one is the leader spot, first come first serve sorry :/ however as we have come to know that not everyone will show up so you can always try for the sub bench

Would like to see the CoT lab invasion map with the melted elevators, even though its a slight difference it really does make the map standout.

Firstly I'd like to apologise for being one of the people missing from the EoE collection on Friday, for some unknown reason I'd got that in my diary as 1pm on Sunday with the raid itself starting at 7... Oops.

Green team

Your job is just like the blue team. Go Hunt kill mito's


[/ QUOTE ]

I'd would however like to note that this seemed to be rather wishful thinking. We ended up with only 5 controllers, so between deaths before reaching the target, terrorizes from the blues and being occasionally blasted across the jelly by annoyed yellows we didn't have enough mag stacking to hold a green consistently and stop it's regen. It was also raised in team chat that with the I13 toggle changes, would being held actually help? If so is end drain the only option in which case green team needs to be sappers and kins not controllers?

Just something to think about before the next attempt.

[/ QUOTE ]

The i13 toggle changes only apply to players not computer controlled enemy's

Also turns out you need mag 100 to get past the mito's regen which our total lacking of controller green team couldn't hope to achieve. Next time ill have to be stricter and say controllers only and try and fit two trollers who have mez protection to share with the group.

WoW thanks a lot for that grav

That's sorta what i had planned for masterminds but this way works out even better, could even have a /TA and /dark mastermind on the team for mas rez's if needed.

I find now days that for a mastermind to survive in pvp they should make sure to take a taunt power from the provoke pool seeing as you want to keep people from attacking your pets, what with healing being nerfed an all so its best if any damage gets done its directed at you primarily and spread out through BG mode rather then letting direct attacks hit the pets. Although with the changes to upgrade pets it's not total doom if you loose a few pets.

I can bring an Empath Def for Team ommy this time matey as long as mainly SO's is good enough. All the usual, Recall friend fly etc

[/ QUOTE ]

SO's is fine and what i consider the standard

As the title suggest at some point i want to try and get hamidon done on the villain side, since the heroes side almost has hami raids down in an organised way.

with pain domination we should have a better chance of going for the win, however a few issues come up when i propose this idea.

1. Turn out, can we get the numbers we need for this and of the right archtypes too since it's more then saying hey guys show up here and lets try and beat hami.

2. Tweaks to the plan i havn't quite gotten my head around changing the plan but how much would we have to change to get this to work for villain side. Ive got a few ideas but i want to hear the public's vote on this too. For example a diversionary tactic could be employed to help with alpha we could use masterminds with a high recharge to send there pets in to distract hami at the alpha to allow people to get to their positions better.

Anyway if anyone has any suggestions or just wants to say yes i would be up for this, i want to hear your opinions so feel free to post anything.

Don't know about you guys but for the past few months I've been putting together some big events over on defiant and of course on the day of the event some people (or dare i say a lot of people) will have absolutely no idea of what i am on about or knew of it but didn't check the forums. when i asked why i quite often get the response of the forums are too scary or intimidating or have had bad experience in the past on other forums and so avoid ours altogether.

Are our forums really scary at all? i myself think not overall but it is odd a lot of new comers find this true, so i ask if there's anything we can do both here and in game to encourage our fresher, newer members to brave our forums and find out that its not so bad a place after all.

8.- The cycling tank system is great, but as no possibility of heals inside the jello, maybe more empaths needed on Leader Team to always have some form of +regen buff ready, so certain empaths can be assigned to buff a certain tank.-

[/ QUOTE ]
tbh, I think that this is overcome by the empaths on cowards hill paying more attention to when the tanks come back. And by the empaths on cowards rock I'm mostly meaning me as I wasn't paying enough attention to the tanks coming and going. Fairly sure my buffs were available and unused quite a few times...

[/ QUOTE ]

ill try and make a bind so i can quickly switch between team and local chat so i can ask the other nearby empaths to buff the tanks too. I managed to do it a few times during this raid but when other duties came up found my self fast forgetting, or i could assign that job to the second empath...

[ QUOTE ]
only Yellow Team 2 was uber

[/ QUOTE ]

I foresee a future rivalry there between the yellow teams

Kinda overshadowed by Hamidon but i had a lot of fun on this and was i surprised to find out you get merits from krono's! (hint, hint lets go for a bigger spawn next time )

Lol found that rather funny had to drop my healing duty's to jump in and become raid targeter

Also just a quick apology, after the double spawn i had somewhat lost my heart for the raid and felt absolutely terrible about sending you guys into the grinder, all due to me wanting to get the raid over with as quickly as possible, next time we will stick to the plan by the letter.

In two weeks time we are going to try this again and i know that we will succeed too. So on Sunday the 15th of march at 1pm by portal corp we will try for round 2.

The plan

On Sunday the 8th 1pm by portal corp we are going to do an EoE run it will only take roughly 1hr for everyone to get what they need so this should be simple enough. Shivian shards will also be farmed on this day for those that don't have them, but all we really need is just the one use. Bio+chem nukes are going to be taken as well but these are best left to solo hunting since it reduces the spawn size thus making the run quicker.(i myself with my empath can get both nukes in 30mins or less usually so most people shouldn't find this a problem)

We know we can beat him and this time we will leave plan B for the 25% health left margin. Also if you have the chance try and make an alternative build fit for hamidon raids so for example scrappers take flight, tanks have ss and healers/buffers take recall friend.

As for raid tactics look to this thread here for the general overview Raid plan

*Edit updated list

lol that was brilliant, we where soooo close too getting him to 10% health before being wiped, i believe my original assumption was correct and that we could have actually gotten away doing plan b at the 25% mark and not the bloom at 50% all in all some good experience was gathered by all and i expect to see a vast improvement from everyone that joined today and are expecting to join next time.

2 spots left for the yellow team 1. Scrappers only sadly, ill check back at 11am to update the list if theirs any takers.
