Attempting: The Really Hard Way Badge

Blondeshell won't be alone on Team 3. I signed up but haven't been added to the roster.

Nobody loves the monkey.

If I make it home in time, I'd like to join on my main... not sure if that'll happen, though.

Since VIP status is frozen, I will join you today.

Got some errands to take care of (online classes) first but I'll be there.

Sadly, it looks like I'll need to bow out of tonights attempts - apparently
I'll now be attending a string concert. I'm sure fresh air is bad for me.

I'll grab a spot on this run. I have all of the pre-reqs. on my main Long Shock, mark me down, @TriNitroToluene.

Updated. starting in 20 minutes.
Sorry Random_McEric. Missed your post the first time.

We really don't seem to have enough resistance debuffs on Triumph. Maybe we should ask other servers to transfer some over so Triumph can say they got this badge at least once before it goes dark.

While this run was a failure for the Really Hard Way badge, the Hard Way badge was earned by all. I would like to thank all players for coming to the event, and assure you that I will be holding another run in an attempt at RHW on September 9th.

Hello Triumph Server,

I'm @Omega Shockwave from Guardian. I'm still missing this badge on my main toon as well. I'd like to join in to help make this possible too. I've still got a few server transfers left, so I could bring my main and another debuffer of your choice if needed.

I'm trying to organize this for Guardian as well on Friday at 7pm EST and Saturday (MoUG first, then onto MoMagi & TRHW) starting at 2pm EST.

I'll be available to help you guys regardless of our success with this.

Hey Omega this is how i build the league and run TRHW and i hope it helps you guys

We have run TRHW on Union with 14 people so pls dont be afraid to go with lower numbers than 24

Get as much range damage and debuffers as you can. Its a fight between the leagues Damage output and Tyrants Regen. Get as much Psy and Sonic damage as you can and as much -res as you can.

Kins are crucial imo : get 3 if you can and have them spamming Fulcrum Shift and Speedboost - you want the whole league at MAX Dam and MAX Rch

Ultimate Inspirations are crucial and EVERYONE must have them : i dont call for Ultimates to be used until Tyrant is at 50% health, then i ask everyone to make sure they have one used at all times.

Lore Pets: i call for these once we have taken Tyrant down to 25% (even tho he will regen a little) and i call for them when we are safe : ie just after the lightning has passed.

The Fight: ALL LEAGUE in melee - the SECOND you see the AIR CRACKLES, ALL move away BUT keep up those range attacks. Dont chain attacks - DONT try and get another hit in before you move! You want the lightning to strike at range then you can ALL get back in melee ASAP. If one person doesnt move then the lightning can appear around Tyrant and you are prevented from getting back tight on him. Melee toons save any range attacks/judgements for when they are backed away, so you keep up constant DPS on him.

When you are ALL back in melee - SPAM those Destinies - Fulcrums - sb's - buffs

Keep debuffs on him at all times.

Corruptors Scourge is very useful particularly during the last few % of the fight - so build in as many as you can.

Tyrant will regen - you will hit a couple of walls where you dont seem to be getting his HP down, pop those Ults and keep at it - There have been a couple of runs where we seem to be doing nothing for what seems like an eternity and its easy to think "meh we aint gonna do this" but we stuck at it and broke down the wall.

I hope this helps I know different servers run it differently, but the above works for us on Union

Good Luck

Ill be there too. . Just one question what we doing?!
