Master of Magisterium - Sunday, June 24

Yes, thanks for the run. I'll also be up for the next one. Will it be this Sunday at the same time?

For the Really Hard Way, I think it really needs to be planned out in advance and limited to veteran players. Although we got 3 badges yesterday (and almost got the 4th for Master of), it was clear that some in the league had never completed a Magi before. Many did not even know what an Ultimate inspiration was or where to get them. And the team should be carrying a lot of tier 3 reds as well. We also had a lot of tanks on the team, whereas a few more blasters *cough* might have made a real difference in DPS.

But overall VERY successful! Thanks again!

That's what I'm planning.

Well, my goal for yesterday was MoMagi, which we got close to; The Really Hard Way was mostly, "Everyone wants to do it and I think we have a chance so why not." If/when I lead a dedicated RHW run (probably this week), it will be structured around that.

You're welcome, and thanks for coming.

I've done several Magi, but never RHW, so we always just dismissed pets and killed the lights when they showed up. You don't need level shifts for that. I think there's a difference between having done the trial before and doing it a special way for a badge.

It may have been clear to you - but it wasn't clear to me.
But, I came in at the last minute. Besides, everyone has to have a first time.

Each time a new trial comes out - those that lead it can only do their best, and learn from mistakes - made by the league as well as the leader. (same goes for the players)
I have led enough of these to get a dozen of my characters unlocked on hybrid - and the single largest contributing factor to any success or failure on this trial - either Hard Way or Really Hard Way - is maintaining DPS.
Can a blaster or corruptor outdamage a tank? Of course. However, that blaster or corruptor may only be still dealing damage because that tank was there. Olympian Guards are not too friendly.

Would I want to run a badge effort with 8 tanks? lol, no. But, I know we didn't have that many.
And tanks like their shineys just like us blasters, do!

This should make things easier.

Fixed today with the patch.

Also, my apologies for not bein' able to help out with the badge runs. Real life took priority. For once.

"Doublehit has been changed to no longer work with Judgement powers. This is consistent with Assault Core abilities being unable to boost the damage of Judgement powers. Doublehit still works in all other damage-enhanceable powers."

Wow, I had the wrong Assault tree going. That would have been insane.

I believe I'll be available for your master runs this weekend, Plac.
