Last Night's Hamidon Attempt


Az'rial

 

Posted

First, thanks so much to everyone who showed on a moment's notice. We didn't succeed, but we learned some things:

1) Triumph isn't quite ready for Pick-Up Villain Raids. - I suspected this, but last night confirmed it. We really didn't have enough EOE inspirations to go around, and we didn't have enough team leaders present to direct the different roles of the raid. Live and learn.

2) Yellow Mitos have to be sufficiently aggroed. This is another one of those "things we knew going in", but it's worth repeating. We had a rookie Bravo taunt team who did a stellar job on a moment's notice. We just need to fine-tune it to make sure this role is covered. It tends to be one of the most annoying jobs in the raid, but it's what keeps the raid alive. Azile and I take the blame for this. We could've shifted leadership a bit to make sure this wasn't a problem. Again, it was a learning experience.

There's more to tell, but azile is going to work on a guide for raiding Hamidon on both sides. Once the guides are written, there will be a new strategy thread on the HKS boards. If you haven't registered there yet, please do.

Thanks again to everyone who joined us in The Abyss! Stay tuned for EOE runs and raid announcements coming very soon!

I'll be sure to make a new toon and get them to 50 for these raids, my current brute is just inadequate for a hami raid.

it was still worth it's kick assery, when hami feels like reciving a beat down, my broote is good to rock.

Mojo,

Make a /Rad Corruptor if you feel like playing one. We need more of them for villain raids.

It's decided then. May need help levelling redside, I've got few connections over there.

i would love to do a Hami raid blueside. It's one of the things on my "to do" list that I haven't seen many opportunities for


Triumph Lurker: mintmiki 50 emp/archer
basically, if you see a miki on Triumph, it's probably cute and it's probably me.

Huge thanks to cuppamanga and all the folks in the mac help forum for prolonging my borrowed time on this game.

It was fun being the 1st viktum of the fun jello! (Storm Rush)

Yea, it was a learning experience. It sounded like almost all of us didn't know what to do. We need moar!!

I was the only one on my team who jumped in for the melee nuke on the first round, I thought that was funny.

I told Dawun....

It was sort of a joke that turned into a Pick Up Raid when over 40 people showed up.

At least now we know there's real interest.

I'd love to jump in on the next one. I've moved a lot of my redside 50's to other servers, but I still have an Ice/Cold Corr... would she be of any use?

It is my place to stand.

Yep! Frostworks is good for any of the taunting Brutes, especially the Alpha. Ice Blast powers are good for helping with Green and Blue Mitos.

There's actually some truth to that. Azile and I were thinking it would've been nice to have another experienced Alpha taunter so that Hedy could be used to lead the Bravos.

P.S. WHY AREN'T YOU EVER ON?!?!?!?!?
