The patch mentions no changes to the current Nexus schedule. Will new days/times be added so that everyone can participate?
Yup we (Conviction) are still around. We're pretty much waiting on the final details of the Nexus raids before we start pushing server-wide again.
Good for you Master.Po. What you did was a very courageous thing and your initiative on behalf of your members as well as yourself has definitely made a good impression with the rest of the server. The entire ordeal will only help bring Core together as a stronger unit. Job well done man, you have my deepest respect and admiration.
Please don't forget your civic duty to vote in the election this week. Irrespective of candidates, Conviction would like to remind every player that the right to vote is a freedom that should never be ignored - no matter if it's in a virtual world or the real world. So please, let your voices be heard. Vote!
Does this mean punch and pie for every day of the campaign cycle?
Mmmmm.. pie...
Mmmmm.. pie...

Thanks! We've got a YouTube Channel up, but right now it's mainly some of our old stuff from FFXIV. It'll be populated with alot more BAM kills and probably some dungeon/BAM guides as well as TERA matures.
Great videos by the way Conviction! We (First Generation) tried doing some 36 BAMs in Colossal Ruins but we got owned (we were only 4 though...). Great to see other people trying stuff out before release :-D.

The main problem with that was that the BAM himself has a few moves that make rolling impractical. He has a conal swipe which makes side to side attacks (Keeping the mob centered so DPS doesn't have to keep turning) very hard on the healers. He also has a random AOE spin that oneshots us at this level. As far as I could tell there wasn't any warning or pattern to when he did it, so actually having a well geared Lancer with tons of heal spam worked best. Who knows what will happen with the next patch with the Warrior tank fixes.
It seems like with the level cap, lancer tanking this BAM was very difficult. Was there a reason you didn't try it with a warrior tank, as the evasive rolls/DFA/etc has no damage cap?
Great accomplishment though, very entertaining fight.

At the close of this TERA's Open Beta Test/Pre-Order Head-Start this week, Conviction decided to hunt for some big game before the server went down. We found our target in Solrachnus - a level 39 B.A.M. With a level cap of 32 and no raid grouping due to party size restriction, we were in for one hell of a fight. After a protracted fight with many, many deaths, we emerged victorious. Some wonderful teamwork were highlighted in this video and quite a few near wipes. Here's the complete video for your perusal:
