Hami Raid?!?!?!???!!!!!!!

After the Kadabra Kill/Midnighter Club Event an impromptu Hamidon Raid ensued.

Raid Leader Outlet Parrish did a wonderful job organizing the teams and getting the monster hunt started. Unfortunately we ran into one of the infamous Monster Walls in the Hive, which caused a complete wipe of those raiding. Personally my game froze when going to the hospital, by the tyme I was able to log back in, I was informed that the raid had been cancelled, but that another attempt would be scheduled for next Friday, February 26 9:00PM Eastern.

I thought I should start a thread to discuss strategy & also help get the word out. You can always /chanjoin "Raiders Inc" to join Liberty's Raiding Channel, if anyone knows an OP announcing the raid in the MOTD would be nice too

I'll start with a few basics that should be taken care of before raiding begins:

1)Use a costume with no cape or aura
(Will help reduce overall lag, especially for those with slower machines)

2)Add Raid Leader to local friends list for easy assist so people don't have to search for raid leader in the group.

3)Assist Macro (/macro assist "assist") without the ()s. This allows people to target the raid leader and hit that macro, then they will be attacking same target as raid leader.

4)Please put your powers/AT in search comment & look for team once you are enroute to Raid (May take a few minutes for search comment to actually change)
ie: "Dark/Elec Def" (put powersets first as search comment display is short)

Anyways, I'm excited to see Liberty attempting Hami Raids again, hope to have more success next tyme.

Do you mean the 26th?

I'd be up for trying to help...although I guess I don't quite understand what happened last night.

Why did we run into a group (8 or more?) monsters? If we were trying to get EoEs, why not continue just beating them up like we were? Not trying to be rude/whatever but just curious.

And yes, thanks for trying to get it going Pariah.

it is also a great place for leechers to stand and for doma to pull monsters to.

There was something about killing the GMs to make hami spawn, & then there's EoE's are now needed to resist hami damage?

I'll be there with my emp again.

I'll at least be there, whether we are successful or not we shall see. Hopefully we can get some cooperation.

Is the raid still going on? Was posted in LB that the hami was cancelled. I obviously can't check the channel at work so I check the forums.

hmm maybe i will lead one again. we shall see.

Well now that I have a new PC that doesn't convulse during teams of 8, nevermind Hami Raids or Rikti Invasions... I'd like to witness one of these events.

That's right, playing since Release and have only been to a couple and each time I basically stared at the image of a mito cell thing for minutes on end only to re-emerge from the convulsion to empty space or a field of dead bodies.

Hello everyone. Haven't been over to visit for a long while since my friend went to play another game, so I've been hanging out on other servers. I don't think this is a secret (sorry if it was), but Hazy has gone around to try and get info to help with the hami raids and I wanted to come over and wish you all the very best of luck. Champion runs a weekly raid that, after organizing, takes about 30 - 45 minutes to complete so I know Hazy will be all set with good ideas for the next raid.

Have fun in the jello!
