Hamidon raids?

I'm returning to the game after some time away and I heard that Hami raids are different but I never hear them being announced server wide like they used to be. When do they get run now days?

usually people make posts about them as much as 2 weeks ahead of time, the hami raids go on more on some servers like virtue i hear they have weekly or biweekly raids

best suggestion is just pay attention to the forums because majority of the time they are announced on here

Not always though. Personally, I've always found it best to get your info from the various global channels that tend to have people that run them.

One of the reasons why Hami raids aren't broadcasted as violently is that not as many people are required for them. Before, you could have (and sometimes needed) more than 200 people to take down Hami. Now, the most that can be in the zone is 50, and you can do a raid with as few as 25-30 people (if they know what they're doing).

There's a hami channel run by @leandro who runs weekly raids w/ the Ultra SG/coalitions. Its usually announced on the global channels as well--but @leandro can get you an invite to the Essence of earth channel if you want to keep up w/ freedom's raid schedule.

There have been other raids as well--Tammy recently ran one at the same time as Leo's raid..so freedom was raiding 2 hives at the same time this past saturday! I know that I managed to hit both hives for an HO in one (darn centriole) and 53 merits in hive 2!

SSSSHHHHH do not tell them are secret. Actually I ran the Hami in hive 2, and @Leandro is not on that much but if you like send me a tell and I can invite you to the Hami channel Essence of the Earth. 51 minutes in hive 2 baby

So, all I need is a 50 to do this? And this is where all the HOs come from?

[sorry for the 18 mo vet newbie question, but I've never even seen Hamidon except for the Weakened Hami in the Shard-something TF]

weakened hami is in LGTF, and this is where normal, non-synthetic HOs come from, synthetic HOs provide the same bonus and they are tons easier to get (just do LRSF or STF and pick the HO)

in a regular raid, i would never ever ever choose the HO, its so not worth it, i would only pick the 53 merits and i even feel that is a bad reward for the amount of coordination/effort required to partake a full raid

i myself dont prefer to do the raids for 2 reasons:
  1. no badges
  2. not good enough reward (53 merits is better than 1 HO, but i can get 53 merits or more in the same amount of time or less doing a sf/tf which requires MUCH less poeple and is MUCH easier to do)

Just need to be lvl 45 to get in to the hive, but lvl 47 to get the HO's.
