OK! Finally remembered to post it.
What plan we use pretty much depends on the turnout we get.
If we get a pretty wide spread of people turn out, I personally dont think its worth doing a non holding plan, cause that would just exclude people. If this happens, we can go with the normal plan which I will post below. Or we could give it a shot with the new plan the yanks have been using, which i'll find a link to in a sec.
If we get a low turnout, But enough rads we could give it a shot with a non holding plan, which we can test on the night.
Ok, as it stands this is the plan we should read for the night, and try and learn. Important bits in bold.
The minimum level to attend a raid is 45, Sadly if you are below this you wont be able to attend, but im sure you can follow the progress on Evo Radio
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.
Costume colours for the raid are as below, Its not vital that you stick to these colours, but its very important that costumes have no cape or aura, and as little detail as possible to minimize lag
Blasters: Red
Controller: Purple
Defenders: Blue
Scrappers: Yellow
Tankers: Black/Grey
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.
Even with the reduced effect because of ED, It is still important that you 6 slot your holds with Hold Duration SOs. Every little bit of extra hold time helps. This may seem silly with ED making it not optimal and everything, But your recharge time will be virtually capped because of all the AM and Speed boost, so the 6 Holds will be more important
I Would also like any kinetics in teams to keep the controllers speed boosted as much as possible, so that we can keep pumping the holds out.
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 and eat some bloody christmas pudding ;o
If i've missed anything, feel free to ask questions on here, or PM me in game. (I'll be online with Xiro at about 7pm on the day of the raid)
And one last thing, Please make sure that everyone in your SG and Friends list is aware of the plan, The more people that have read the guide the better as it saves us problems on the night
