Heroic Pit Raids Are Almost Here!

Now that we've mastered Tiers 5 and 6 of the Pit Raid, the time has finally come for us to try our hand at the Heroic Tier. This entails a few changes to the way we run raids, which I'll outline for you. Needless to say, though, this is the most difficult Tier, so we need to work together as a guild to make our way through it!

Here's the Heroic Raid graphic:

As you can see, the rewards are MUCH better. Not only that, but we'll be earning shards for the very coveted Han Solo, otherwise known as Raid Han. This is the only way to earn his shards, in fact. You can check out his abilities in your Inventory, but here he is in all his thieving, charming, scruffy-looking nerf herder glory:

By the way, he always shoots first.

But back to logistics. Note that there's a 2 day time limit to the Heroic Raid, which means we'll implement a few changes from the way we normally run Tier 5 and Tier 6 Raids. 

The first change is that there's no more 24 hour Zero Damage Rule!

When a Heroic Raid appears, feel free to attack at will. It's totally FFA (Free For All). Keep in mind, though, the second change: There are no refreshes for this event. Which means that you'll get to use every squad you have within a 2 day limit. My advice is to hit this Heroic Raid early and often until you've got nothing left! Even if you have only 1 character at the required 7*, make sure to enter! I can't stress this enough. You'll receive rewards for doing so.

Our strategy for the Heroic Raid is fairly simple. As I mentioned before, as soon as the raid is launched, it's FFA for members. Members will comprise the first wave. Our Officers will comprise the second wave. They will do enormous amounts of damage and continue to push us deeper into the raid. Then, for a third and hopefully final wave, I'll enter with my Raid Squad who can currently solo the entire Tier 6 Raid!   

And that should do it.

As always, if you have any questions, feel free ask. And, again, make sure to enter this Heroic Raid as quickly as you can to ensure that you receive rewards. This is our first time through, so hopefully everything goes smoothly. Good hunting, everyone.
