- Melee were asked not to melee the terminals during Anti Matter's regeneration, but instead use Judgements. (This prevented melee folk from being caught in the corners and allowed them to see the beam more effectively). Avoiding the Beam - Powers with long animations or rooting effects were not used or limited around the time the beam struck. - Captain Drej called out a 10 second warning before the next strike via macro. - Anti Matter was moved to each set of terminals before he reached the health thresholds (80%, 50%, 20%). This limited the duration of time frozen, reducing the chance of getting hit. |

Room for Improvement - People are still getting caught in the beam, mostly due to a visibility issue. I had a couple report they could not see the beam effects on the ground prior to firing. Perhaps we could designate a few 'safe people' to put on follow before the beam strikes. - On our third run we would have had it except for poor timing. Time was frozen and the beam struck. Not much you can do. On future runs we may have to call for a cease fire if the timing between the time freeze and beam is close. I think that is it for now. Please post if you have any other ideas and continue to reflect on our work done today. I will be posting a sign up for next week soon and will probably bump the time to 3pm Eastern since that seems to work for more people. Thank you very, very much for coming. Everyone did an exceptional job. |
Seeing how quick we were with the reactors, I would like to think it would be plausible to get Anti-anti matter next time also.
Thanks again for running this. Hopefully we'll succeed next week.

Rebirth is the Destiny power that is a giant PBAoE heal. The effect animates along the ground in a large area and is by default green in colour. Some people have found that it makes it more difficult to see the Obliteration Beam area for that reason. |

Oh so it's an aesthetics thing to have rebirth a different colour! I see! That makes sense.

I'll be doing this again this Saturday, August 6th at 3pm Eastern in Pocket D. Please try to arrive a couple minutes early so we can start at 3pm. We will start with Bunker Buster (for anyone that missed it last week) and Avoids the Green Stuff. We will do three to four runs total. If we have a strong group, I'll make one of the runs an Anti-Anti-Matter run as well.
Also, some people have voiced that the above time is not ideal for them. Please let me know if you would like me to shift the time and I'll see what I can do for next week.
Sign up below! Thanks!

A note on this. The Obliteration Beam actually targets a specific player for its point of placement. For example: Anti-Matter is standing atop a big building, and a dozen players are below. He will "fire" the Oblit Beam at a player. Where that player was at the time of firing will be where the Oblit Beam will appear. It doesn't follow the player if they're moving.|

It's common that a player doesn't even notice they were targeted as they Jump through the target point that was just laid down, but the players beneath him/her wouldn't realize it.
I'd amend your statements above to:

Indeed, we are well aware that the Obliteration Beam targets a player. I have been on numerous runs where the beam area has spawned in mid air, making it difficult for players below to see. The main contributing factor for this is that Anti Matter is flying, especially after his regeneration is prevented at one of the terminals, and players are flying up to attack him. The Obliteration Beam can then target one of these players. (This scenario occurs in addition to people who fly as a regular part of combat). This was what I was referring to with the two points you've quoted. |

Please note the list I provided is a quick recap of points discussed at length during the actual runs. I feel confident most will understand what I was referring to. However, apologies if this has lead people to believe the Obliteration Beam fires on Anti Matter. That is incorrect.
If there is anything else I can clarify please let me know.

The original version made it seem like the targeting was off of AM's position, yeah. Your edit clears that up. Cheers. |
