Most of the team reads this site, so&#8230;<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s what I&#8217;m thinking.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n* Hype and Syn will be level 39 tonight sometime, probably.  This brings the Eden Trial within range, technically.<br \/>\n* Because of the extremely narrow level-range for the trial, SK-ing to the auto-exemped (to level 41) level 50&#8217;s won&#8217;t be possible.<br \/>\nThis means the options are:<br \/>\n1. Run it &#8216;now&#8217; (this weekend):<br \/>\n** Cons: Everything will be +4 to Hype and Syn (not really a big deal, but suboptimal for getting Holds and buffs off).<br \/>\n** Pros: Avoids the big changes from i5 that will upgrade this Trial from Nasty to Hellish.<br \/>\n2. Run it &#8216;later&#8217; (when Hype and Syn get to 41):<br \/>\n** Con: I5 will most probably be in place by that point, making the whole thing an experiment in finding out what will work (all the holds are short duration, etc.).<br \/>\n** Pros: Everyone involved will be around the level-max, making the group as a whole more effective, and if the &#8216;bug&#8217; with level 41&#8217;s autoexemping to&#8230; level 41 is still in place, I don&#8217;t have to worry about debt when we try out different ways of beating this thing.<br \/>\nMy optimal group for this would be:<br \/>\n1. Hype<br \/>\n2. Syn<br \/>\n3. Shock<br \/>\n4. Kin<br \/>\n5. Mal<br \/>\nBeyond that:<br \/>\n6. Another blaster<br \/>\n7. Someone else with Holds (Puck needs 4 more levels, alas)<br \/>\n8.
