What we're doing

I'm planning what I think is the last of my dedicated attempts to get the Really Hard Way badge in the Magisterium incarnate trial. I'm shooting for starting to form this Thursday at 8 PM Eastern Time. That's 7 PM Central, 6 PM Mountain and 5 PM Pacific.

When we're doing it

If you're a west coast player and can't get there at 5, bear in mind we haven't yet started one of these sooner than 30 minutes after we started forming. We also usually try three times, though (so far) we've only succeeded once per set of three.

Hopefully, scheduling this for Thursday this week will allow for some time to get the word out.

How we're doing it

See my previous thread for details on what we need most. Having 1/3-1/2 of the league be +3 Corruptors is the easiest way to pull this off. Even if you can't bring that, most everyone needs to be +3. If you can bring anything that debuffs DR, that's also a big help.

Naturally, if your badge collector meets none of those requirements, that's OK. That's why we've been running it over and over - to give people a chance to rotate in their badge collectors, no matter what they are.

I know a lot of folks have achieved this badge now on the previous four trials. Even if you already got this badge on one of the prior attempts, please come help others get it. In particular, if you have it and can now bring something else that better matches what we need to pull it off, please consider bringing that.
If you really want this badge and this date/time won't work for you, please reply here or send me some kind of PM or /tell ASAP, and I can see about rescheduling, running more, or whatever. I want to wrap these up soon if possible - people have been awesome helping out, and I don't want to exhaust their good will!

Thanks in advance to all who can come, and everyone else wish us luck.

I want to thank everyone who came out tonight. Sadly, despite not looking too shabby from just an AT composition, we didn't quite have the special sauce mix right.

Part of it was that we didn't have the kind of DPS that has pulled it off on the successful runs. And part of that was that we also didn't have quite as many team buffs - the first try of the night a lot of people died a lot to things other than the flow lightning, and, well, dead people don't DPS very well. While we tried to adjust, we also lost folks, and our second pass survived better, but dented him even more softly.

I'd really like to get one night in with a successful pass. I'll schedule something next week mid-week, and something else either Friday or Saturday if we don't hit it mid-week. (The thinking there is that maybe we can get more people on Fri/Sat.)

Thanks again to all who showed up, especially those who came from other servers. If I can get a league going at all that will get you the badge, I really want to.

Sorry I missed all the tries tonight Uber. It was a very long day at work today... Also... which section is RHW in? I could have sworn I got it on Tediore, but I'm not seeing it... I know it's not needed for Mo, but since she's my run-stupid-number-of-incarnate-trials character, I figure she of any ought to have it.

Looks like it's an Accolade.
