...the new Minds of Mayhem Incarnate Trial on the Beta Server, that is!

Roughly 24 hours from the time of this post (3 pm Mountain Time), if Entity is willing and the creek don't rise, I will be on Beta in the RWZ recruiting to test this new Trial (and possibly TPN as well)!

What you can do to join us:

- Create a character on the Beta Server (the copy tool is still borked).

- Post in the Level Bump Thread on the Beta Forums

- Go to Ouroboros (ask me for a portal or go to Recluse's Victory and get an exploration badge there to get the special teleport to Ouroboros power) and see Empyrean Micheal, who sells Empyrean Merits for 1 inf each! Your Alpha slot should automagically be unlocked!

- Get about 1000, and turn most of them into Threads, which you can then turn into Incarnate Components, which you can then turn into Incarnate Abilities and Experience.

- Get at least one Level Shift in this way; 3 is obviously better.

- Hit me or any present GM up for inf to get SOs or IOs.

- ...Profit!

The MoM Trial seems cruel but fair. It may need to be toned down, that is what the testing is for.

Note that you are given a chance to rest, buy inspirations and recover between each part the Trial.

Some things to be prepared for:

- Fighting a random Giant Monster while growing pink circles of damage appear around you. Mobility is crucial, although a teammate with the League Teleport ability, Incandescence, can help here. Being able to Rez teammates is desired!

- Pulling foes to a specific spot to be defeated there. Tankers are appreciated!

- Dedicated healing for a non-League npc. Yes, Healz0rs are appreciated! Being able to target a non-team npc and heal them is good.

- Control powers. One challenge will involve stopping a fleeing AV!

This is to take down Mother Mayhem and Malaise, so bring your psi-resistant ugly Magneto helmets!

The more, the merrier although it takes only 8 to start, so I hope to see you all there!

Some time in early October something in the game changed so that the patch download process continuously runs afoul of my antivirus software and fails.

Customer Service's response? "Turn your antivirus protection off."

o.O

So yeah, I won't be on Beta any more. I'm willing to risk an hour or so for small updates but I'm not turning my AV protection off for a day to download the whole Beta client.

Good luck, testers. You have my sympathy cranking through something so busted it's now, what? Three weeks behind schedule and counting?

Also: Six years of casual play begins to look an awful lot like one year of hardcore play.

It's always been fun for me. I am new to raiding, and this process of experimentation and tactical thinking is exciting for me.

In fairness, I've found that most AV protection fouls up your computer so badly that it might as well be a virus in itself.

Sorry Kyuubi, but these days I'm not free at night until at least 6:30 EST.

As it turns out, the creek has indeed risen and I won't be able to make it tomorrow.

So, um Thursday after that, 'kay?
