Holy Preperation, Batman!
Of course I'll be there for joo. I'm in!
Green Mito Kill Team: 6-7 Holder/Damagers (Dominators, Fortunatas, and Masterminds with Poison, Dark Miasma, or Trick Arrow as their secondary powerset), 1 Pain Domination or Thermal. Again, if you are depending on one of the holders for mez protection, it will be important to insure those with mez protection responsibilities are clear on their duties. It is useful to have two of these teams working together, if possible, and targeting through the same person.
I might have either my fort or one of my doms up by then. But I'd like this team please, sir.

I know my DA brute can tank hami for extended periods with some +rech to fuel Dark Regen (Dark Regen works regardless of the amount of -heal stacked). I would imagine I would need EoEs until the greens go down so I could regen between blasts and heals. The biggest drawback, is of cource, the need for targets to heal from. Hami is one, and while I haven't tried, Oil Slick might be a second target (2 targets = 100% heal for me). With 2 targets and some +rech, I can heal out some 1600pts every 11 seconds. Easily enough with an EoE, and maybe enough without EoEs.

"I am not sure if my portrayal of being insane is accurate, but damn its fun all the same."
From my conversations with the leader of the Pinnacle raid, the issue with /dark brutes taunting hami is that they need to be in range of hami to use their heal.
And, at his suggestion and per normal hami taunting procedures, you want the hami-taunt brute at max distance to keep aggro away from the assault teams and so he can be buffed.
As it stands, I have a ss/wp brute lined up as our primary hami taunter, but will certainly consider you as an option if we get into a bind.
Thanks.

I would totally do it but its right in the middle of my radio show so I wont be able to.
It has been added to the calendar though. Ya'll have fun and good luck!
I'll be there.. but... you already knew that llewthor. 
muhahahaha
Anyone know the radius of Hami's AoE attacks? I know it's really big, but the radius for Dark Regeneration is pretty big itself too, 20' iirc. I think circling around Hami and staying on the opposite side of the assault teams would work if you're using a Dark Armor Brute.

You heard the man, its his raid. He will be using a WP to do it.
If the spike teams can get around fast enough, a WP can stay alive long enough with buffs. But there huge emphesis on yellow spike. PainBringer's +regen will get overwhelmed with the -regen blasts if it takes too long. I would also recommend (if not already at HP cap) get a Cold to Frostwork ya since regen is based from max hp.

All my villains are on another server. ^_^;; Don't server transfers end the next day? I'll try to make it with a Corrupter if needed. Is an elec/pain corr.
Also have an elec/elec brute and a fortunata focused on team buffs and area damage/holds. Let me know what I should bring since I would have to transfer from another server to help. <_<;;
I'm totally down for this, I would like to know what you prefer me to bring -- kin, dark, ice dom, therm, widow, pain MM -- whatever team you need me on and if I know in advance I'll have nukes no problemo

Nothing saids its your spot like an ourob. Portal dropped on the ground.
I'll try my best to make it. (life not interfering) I've never done a Hammidon raid, so I'd be interested in contributing. I would bring a Mind/Psi dom, so this would be for the green team.

So in this strategy, MMs are totally useless but for their secondaries?
Meh....
Good luck, though.
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

We'll need all the damage we can get from everyone on the blue assault and green assault teams.

I'll eventually level a villain up that high to be able to help out. Good luck with the Redside Hami Raid, Llew and co.

I've got a brute with taunt, a pain corr and a kin. I'll be there, and I can bring what we need most at the time.
I am putting together a Villain Hami Raid for Saturday, February 27th at 7:30PM EST.
This raid will use a different strategy than the normal redside raids that use mastermind pets to control hami's aggro. The strategy was used in the last week on Pinnacle and their raid was successfully completed in 45 minutes, not including time to spawn Hami.
The new strategy will use the following plan:
There are a minimum of 5 teams used in this strategy: a Hami Aggro Team, a Yellow Mito Aggro Team, a Yellow Mito Kill Team, a Blue Mito Kill Team, and a Green Mito Kill Team. The following is a list of who should, ideally, be on each team. Given the nature of public raiding, however, we live with the reality that we will frequently not have the best combination of toons present. So these teams will, by necessity, be modified for each raid to accommodate the people present.
Hamidon Aggro Team: 1 Brute (w/taunt), 2 Pain Domination Masterminds or Corruptors, and 1 Kinetic is ideal. It is possible to work with 2 Pain Domination toons and no Kinetic, but at that point I suggest having an additional Brute on the team to take over when and if the Brute who is taunting the Hamidon goes down.
Yellow Mito Aggro Team: 6 Brutes (w/taunt) and 2 Pain Domination Masterminds or Corruptors. Its necessary that at least one of the pain domination toons has recall friend and Conduit of Pain. It is possible to use /thermal corruptors or /thermal or /poison MMs as support toons for the brutes taunting the yellows, but I strongly suggest having an additional support toon or two (preferably a /pain domination corruptor or MM) on the Hami Aggro Team to help the support toons on this team with buffs as a safety measure.
Yellow Mito Kill Team: 6-7 Melee Damagers (Brutes, Stalkers, Soldiers of Arachnos, or Night Widows), 1 Pain Domination or Thermal. It will also work if you have two support toons on this team, and if at least one of them has recall friend and a rez of some kind. Each team member should make sure to have fly or the flight pack that can be purchased in Grandville.
Blue Mito Kill Team: 6-7 Ranged Damagers (Corruptors, and Masterminds with FF, Storm, or Traps as their secondary powerset), 1 Pain Domination or Thermal. In this case, one of the corrupters may be a Pain Domination, Thermal, or Sonic, but you would want to make sure that they knew their primary job was mez protection and not damage. Again, two support toons are better. Note that, depending on your team make-up at any given raid, this team may not need an individual using single target mez protection. With two Dark corruptors using Shadow Fall, and two or more Force Field or Traps on the team, the AoE mez protection should be sufficient as long as the team stays together.
Green Mito Kill Team: 6-7 Holder/Damagers (Dominators, Fortunatas, and Masterminds with Poison, Dark Miasma, or Trick Arrow as their secondary powerset), 1 Pain Domination or Thermal. Again, if you are depending on one of the holders for mez protection, it will be important to insure those with mez protection responsibilities are clear on their duties. It is useful to have two of these teams working together, if possible, and targeting through the same person.
I also plan to use two (2) bio nukes on the brute teams for each round. I would appreciate it if anyone planning on attending could grab the bio nuke, as this will go along ways to helping make this a successful raid.
I have already coordinated team leaders, but would like to invite everyone to come out for this.
I will also be running and EoE farm for Friday, 2/26 at 8PM EST so that we are prepared with EoEs for the raid.
I hope to see you all there.
