Master of Magisterium Attempt: 6/5/12 - 7pm Pacific

Have an interest in badges, or just interested in getting a successful Magisterium trial? Please join me tomorrow at 7pm Pacific for a series of 4-5 trial runs where we work towards the badges. Please make sure your character is +3, and that you have a high level Lore Pet/Destiny slotted. We may not be successful in all of the runs, but we'll get some important experience and progress towards the Master of Magisterium badge.

Please meet me in Cimerora at 7pm Pacific. Succeed or fail, the trials will go on until we get the badge or until 9pm Pacific. Please come prepared to pay attention and work together - It's best if you're familiar with the trial, but we'll be explaining the tactics and running it several times so that the team can gel together.

If you can, post here with what you're bringing, including their Level and Lore/Destiny. For Lore, Core Cimerorans and Longbow are the best. Destiny seems to benefit most from +Regen Rebirth and Ageless, with Barrier providing damage mitigation against Tyrant's splash attacks. Depending on scheduling issues, there may be other attempts on Wednesday and Thursday as well.

Thanks for the interest!

50+3 Warshade with Longbow and Barrier/Regen powers.

Wouldn't miss it. I'm looking forward to my Really Hard Way badge

Sounds like fun, will try to make it.

Wonderful!

Just a head's up for those running their own Master Attempts: If you've got an effects heavy team and are going for "Ready to Rumble" badge by reaching Tyrant within 8 minutes, consider saving Nega-Pendragon for last. His Excalibur patches are heavy enough to cause instance crashes if the team is piled together. If you defeat the others first his Excalibur won't trigger.

I'm interested in this event, and will endeavor to join. My badger is a 50+3 Peacebringer, with multiple purple sets, and T4s in all incarnate trees.

I'm currently parked on another server, but my cup floweth over with transfer tokens, so I'll be burning one to do a little server tourism.

Scrapper +3 all T4, rebirth, assault and more

The Devs have released some info regarding the Tyrant fight for those having trouble.

He has no mechanics that trigger on player death 2.) There is currently a bug where only 16 players/pets will receive the level shift from destroying Light of the Well. We’ll be fixing this in an upcoming patch as quickly as possible – I checked the fix in as soon as the issue was discovered. 3.) Tyrant does not have a self heal. He does have a self-buff power which consumes his Olympian Guards, killing them, and providing him with bonus ToHit and Smashing Damage for each guard consumed in this way. This has a visual effect which looks a bit like a heal, but is meant instead to connote “Powering up off dark energy”. 4.) There is no direct negative effect to “Being in the hospital”. I have seen several people postulate that Tyrant heals or grows in power when people are in the hospital, but the only effect hosping has on him is that you’re dead and not DPSing, and therefore his regeneration is healing him better. I hope this information helps you, and good luck in your endeavours to bring Tyrant down! -Arbiter Hawk

We're still on for tonight and not going to limit the league size to 16 - but do keep this in mind for future runs, and that taking down the Lights will be more effective in the future. To those that have PMed me, thanks for your interest. We'll be starting at 7pm Pacific but running for a long time - until we've got the badges, or until 9, even 10pm Pacific - or until we're all bored.

Once we've got the Masters we'll work on the Really Hard Way, probably sometime this weekend. See you all then.

50+3 Fire/Kin Controller

T4-Clarion
T4-Hybrid Support
T4-Lore/Seers
T4-Pyronic
T4-Reactive

I also have some Team Inspirations and Ultimate Inspirations.

Would love to join if there is room.

Count me in. Bringing:

Grim Saint, 50+3 StJ/Nin Stalker

T4 Void Radial
T4 Reactive Radial
T4 Longbow Core
T4 Rebirth Radial

Will come packing teams and ultimates too.

I'd love to bring Dawnshift (50+3 PB, all Incarnate slots at Tier 4) along whenever I get off work tonight. (Sometime around 7-8 PM Pacific).

I'll bringing my elec/elec blaster. Level 50 +3 with Barrier Core Epiphany destiny power and Storm Elemental Partial Core Improved Ally lore pet.

Just wanted to say Thanks for hosting the Master of Badge run for Magisterium. Didn't quite come close, but still had a blast

Thanks to everyone who came to the attempt. We earned that Ready to Rumble badge, and the others will be ours soon enough. I'd give it another 2 runs tops before we have Triple Threat.

I have a feeling we could pull off the Hard Way with a little more practice - a few less KOs, a few more inspirations and Tyrant would be taken care of. Maybe stick to taking down 3 Lights at a time, coupled with one Ultimate inspiration to bring us that much closer. Even before the patch fixes the Lights.

The Really Hard Way looks to require stacking buffs and debuffs, which isn't very surprising but a tad disappointing. I'd hoped that with Incarnates we'd gone past the need to require specific archetypes as long as the characters were played well.

See you guys on Thursday for another series of attempts.

When you will obtain your badge MO, we would be interested (with part of the French players badgers) to try the badge "The Really Hard way".

Unfortunately I can't make tonight's run after all. But please add "VirtueUnited" to your chat channel tabs if you're interested in joining Master and Really Hard Way attempts this weekend. I'll be sending tells to those on my friends lists as I see them form up as well. It's going to be a lot of fun.

I'm sorry we don't have you for tonight!

I don't get to play that much on the weekends, so I may miss all the good times--but I'll keep an eye on my friends list and VU as well, if I get a chance to be on.

Thanks again!
