A well-run raid as usual, thanks Xanthus and Archy!

Add me to the masses who didn't get a Hami-O, sadly. I petitioned it but I'm not hopeful.

No, no, you misunderstand. What I speculated in the other post was perhaps everyone had to get their 1 attack in at some point while he was below 50% or perhaps even 25% health in order to get credit. As it stands we all did it while he was at 100% and then the hold phase started with the rest of us withdrawn to outside the jelly. I'm wondering whether everyone who didn't receive an HO had only attacked him during that pre-hold phase (at ~100%), and everyone who did had snuck a hit or two in during the holding phase thus ensuring themselves credit.

No. I Total Focus'd Hamidon just as the Brawl Phase started, being in the Tank Team I stayed in the bubble myself until the very end, and received my HO. It seems Timing is not the issue.

We do, however, have reports of some people being on Cowards Hill and receiving a HO. So it's pretty freaking weird.

That scratches that theory then, guess we're back to it being erratic. You'd think there would be at least some reproducable pattern to it.

Great fun and thanks to the team who made it happen [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Looking forward to the next raid!

Just to update, customer support has been in touch and has given me the choice of which hami-o I want. It was irritating not to be awarded at the end of the event, but even better now as I can pick which one I want [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thank you to customer support for the swiftness of their response, and thank you to the organisers for a smooth seamless event. If people on union want to do the event as easily as we did on defiant then I reccomend reading the hami guide.

I got the same email [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Nice to see customer support are on the ball [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thanks again to the guys organising the raid, I'm looking forward to the next one!

Although in our case Ext, we were on a team with controllers, and were standing close enough for the team kill to count.

I'm pretty sure that some people on the edge of the bubble were teamed with people in the Hold Team/s and didn't receive a HO.

Our 8-person team did not have a Controller doing the final Hold phase and yet half of them got a Hami-O.

*Raises hand*

We had two of our team members in the hold group, and I was stood just outside the jelly.

Glad to hear customer support have acted swiftly here [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Guess that means we can start planning our next raid.

I'll have a chat with the other raid leaders about a time and date [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Actually, being given a choice of rewarfd sounds better than getting a random one, so fixing this bug will be a top priority now for the devs [img]/uk/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I never thought of that. We have inconvenienced customer support (who were both swift and fair.. well done CS), its a bug that gives some players an advantage, and it will probably happen weekly. I expect the bug to be fixed by thursday......
