The date of the next raid has set to October the 3rd, Details as follows:
Anyone over level 45 is welcome to attend the raid, Sadly if you're below 45 you wont be able to get into the zone.
The meetup for the raid is set for 7pm UK Time, With a view to start the raid at 8pm. (This is subject to change, I'll post if it does change). Remember to bring awakens cause its very likely that you're gonna eat some dirt at some point during the raid.
It's up to yourself to form your own teams for the raid, Try and make sure you have an empath in the team, and somebody with group fly, If possible.
This excludes Illusion controllers, They will have their own specific team, Which i'll detail later on.
Its also important that you have a specific colour coded costume for the raid, Details are as follows:
Blasters: Red
Controller: Purple
Defenders: Blue
Scrappers: Yellow
Tankers: Black/Grey
Kheldians: Light Blue
And please remember, No capes or Auras to minimize lag.
If you have a hold, Please also include a small purple detail in your costume.
Please remember to stay off of the Request Channel during the raid, This is for the use of raid leaders only, to keep the plan clear.
Strategy:
After we assemble at the platform inside the Hive (team leaders will be able to show you where this is), Illusion controllers will be organised into a seperate team, with somebody with group fly. They will then hover above Hamidom himself, and drop Phantom Armies spread around the jelly, to draw some of the aggro away from the rest of the raiders.
NO other pets are allowed during the first phase.
Once the Decoys are in place, the Hamidon Tank and his team of emapths will move into the jelly, to get the aggro of the Nucleus, This is to keep the very nasty AoE away from the rest of the raiders.
After the Hamidon Tank has the aggro, and has given us the go, The Targeter and the rest of the raiders will enter the jelly. The Targeters purpose is to pick out Mitochondria for everybody else to attack, And you should ONLY attack his or her target. The targeter will move the group around the bubble, clearing as they go. Yellow mitos first, and then Blue/Green mitos after that.
The easy way to keep track of the Targeter, is to put him/her on your friends list, and click on the name there, if you lose track of him.
The general rule for the first phase, is that if you're attacking something that isnt Yellow, you're on the wrong target, And please try to refrain from using AoE attacks, as this could get you unwanted aggro.
At no stage during the raid, Should you ever attack Hamidon. This could draw the aggro away from the Hamidon tank, and pull the AoE attack onto the raiders
Once all the mitos have been defeated, everybody will be called to leave the bubble, Except for the Hamidon Tank and his team. Once everybody has left the jelly, Everybody with a hold will re-enter the the jelly and group up next to the Nucleus.
Once everybody is in place, People should cast their buffs, Such as recovery aura, and more importantly Accelerate Metabolism, to speed up the holding. At this point people should start spamming holds at the nucleus, And keep on casting the buffs.
At this point, The only pets that should be used are Dark Servants and Singularites.
If you lose target of Hamidon, and its quite possible that you will due to lag, Click on a pet and target through them. They will never lose target, No matter how bad the lag.
Once Hamidon gets held for a period of time, People with ranged attacks will be called in to attack. Its important that you stay at the max range possible, to minimize the lag for the holding team.
At no point during the attack should the holding team stop using holds, its VITAL that you continue spamming holds because if Hamidon breaks free, He will spawn one Yellow Mito for every hero in the hive.
Once Hamidons health approaches the 50% marker, There will be a call on the request channel for Vanguards to be used by the holding team. This is to make certain that Hamidon stays held for the rest of the attack, as if he breaks free, Doom will ensue.
After that, Hamidon falls, and we party to Atlas
If i've missed anything, feel free to ask questions on here, or PM me in game.

I'll probably be there. Any recommendations for diverse slotting of a six-slotted hold? 3 hold, 2 recharge, 1 accuracy was what I was thinking of going with

Union 50's: Chimera Obscura, Diet Anthracite, Grim Proctologist, Puny Little Minion, Raging Bitumen

I would use 2 acc, 3 holds and 1 recharge but that is the same as I have always used.
Global handle: @Big Bear
Mind should be able to get there as well now that everything has d/l at last on the second try ( I think from what I saw this morning).
I don't think she should be greatly affected by ED - (sometime I really should think about using one of my respecs as I will have missed getting the free one this time) well at least not for Hami I think its only storm summoning and Terrify that are affected for damage and probably the Psi defence and stealth as well - not that they help for this.

Thanks for posting that Kejoxen, But ive still got a copy 
Gotta make a few changes what with I6 and all.
good to see eric is coming, I will be there, as will as many of the SG as can make it i'm sure.
providing some holds if needed.
may i seriously suggest the "PA drop>hami tank>kill mitos>back out>ranged debuff>ranged snipe and all other things ranged from out of hami range", it doesnt require the usual lag, and has been done before. ToeBee may have more to post on this from our convo about it.

np, i like to read it before i go to bed at night.
Thats what we tried last time i was there plight, but we didnt have enough damage so we had to pile people in. Which didnt work well either.
i hear u xor, but the US have done it, and we have some serious numbers nowadays. think it could be worth a shot, if every1 was comitted to the enh slotting. ah well, it wont happen if not even the ppl that know it can work or have see n it work arent willing to try
