That Hamidon guy is at it again.....

After tonights success, I figure we'll do another raid in 2 weeks time on Sunday the 4th of June. As with tonight, 7pm meetup for 8pm start but PLEASE try and be there by 7:45pm so we can be in the hive and starting the PA-drop by 8.

Same guide as last time, which is found here with the following notes from last time as well:

[ QUOTE ]
To speed things up a bit and reduce the confusion, Honsou will call out when the Mito that he's targetting is on half health, when it's dead and when he's moving on to another mito so that people know what's going on. If you're still attacking a mito after he calls out that the one he's targetting is dead, you're attacking the wrong one.

Another change this time around, we'll be using a "Bubbler". This is a tactic used in the US to help people make sure they're in the right place during the mito clearing phase. Basically, one /FF controller runs Dispertion Bubble (In this case, Mesmer). If you're not inside/near the bubble, you're in the wrong place. This doesn't mean we need ALL bubblers to run it though, just Mesmer.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll give out the names of team leaders as and when I have them. I can confirm that Honsou will be the targetter again for the next raid.

Costumes as usual, no capes no auras. Anything else is up to you.

Questions? Comments? Either post here, send me a PM or send me a tell in game (@Xanthus) and I'll see what I can do!

A thought or two:

This may well be the first Hami Raid of I7, and if it isn't that raid will happen at some point, so with that in mind...the AV changes will make mito clearing much tougher - while I don't doubt that 50 people all attacking the same target will bring it down no matter what, might it be an idea to have some -regen debuffers on standby so that, if it does become tough going, they can spring into action?

Also with I7, buffs will be transferable to pets. Should I recast my Sing when I hit Vanguard? If I do, anyone targeting through it will suddenly be in trouble until they can find another pet to use.

Finally, when the freespec comes around I intend to respec my TA/A def into Psi Mastery. With Dominate and Telekinesis added to Ice Arrow and Emp Arrow, he'll have 4 holds (and had I thought to take /elec, he'd have 5, but I didn't). Would he be better for the holding phase than my Grav troller?

I would love to see the raid start half an hour earlier, but I fear that's not possible.

I try to make sure I mention that rad controllers/defenders should be using both EF and LR on the mito that's being attacked, so that shouldn't be a problem. I guess in i7 I'll just have to stress it a bit more.

Good question. I guess the only way to know is to test it, since I thought that the buff would transfer if you fired it when the pet was out rather than firing the pet after you've fired off Vanguard.

No. Controllers holds last significantly longer than holds from other powersets. On top of that, you have a pet dropping controller style holds as well.

Seeing that the Defiant referee for 3vP and the raidleader is the same person this shouldn't be a problem...as for Union I don't know

I just nipped on to Test and, erm, I couldn't see any difference no matter which order things were cast. There was nothing in the pet window, and no visible signs of buffs on the pets. So, um, pass.
