We, the staff of Freedom Hami Raids - the people that regularly host them for all of you - want to extend our gratitude to all who came out for raids over the past year! There are no raids without good leaders and people willing to come out to join in the synchronized jello diving!
I wanted to bring to everyone's attention some things that will be some changes to the raids in the new year.
First, Freedom Hami Raids global channel is 100% public to join. We want to encourage everyone who wants to be part of the normal raiding crowd to join the channel. Our channel is populated with some truly great people who are knowledgeable about Hami raids and are also a good resource of knowledge about all aspects of the game. We will even use the channel to help pull together other events because we know the channel population will step up and help out.
Second, Villain side raids are in the works! There have been rumblings about using The Abyss and giving those who prefer to only run on villains to participate in some raiding. We are still working out the logistics of this. But, do stay tuned! Volunteers to help organize raids for that side are encouraged to step up if they feel willing.
On a side note, it only takes being a Rogue/Vigilante to allow you to cross over and participate in raids run on either side. If people are willing to make their "raiding" toons R/V that would certainly help us be able to run them on both sides!
Third, More raid leaders and team leaders are being sought! Earlier last year, a few of our raid leaders decided to retire from hosting them. This left us with a smaller pool of people who are willing hosts. So, we are seeking additional people who are willing to help organize raids that way we can rotate leaders more frequently so the leadership doesn't burn out. If you think you are confident in your leadership abilities and would like to host/lead some raids, please contact me @Dr Gemini. (Do not be afraid! You will have plenty of help getting set up!)
Also, we can always use willing team leaders. These are the people to whom various responsibilities are delegated. They help ensure people are targeting the right things and see that newer raiders are taught the ropes. The team leaders are really a great help to the raid leader by helping to shoulder the burden! If you are willing to volunteer as a *team* leader on a regular basis, feel free to step up. During a raid, we need people to lead the: Melee team (yellow attack team), Green Team (Controllers/Dominators), Misfits (usually extra melee/range mix), Yellow Taunters (Tanks/Brutes with taunt), and of course the Hami Taunt team (1 Tank with taunt and a handful of Empathy buffers).
Fourth, Cathedral of Pain trials may be added to our channel's use. I know that people do enjoy doing these trials for the good temp powers you can get from them. And, the CoP does reward you with some nice other rewards. I am certainly willing to open up FHR to being used to help organize them.
Well, I think that about covers all of the upcoming changes or things to know for 2012. Please feel free to contact me if there are any questions. Thanks!
