So, this is probably already know in several areas... but since I finally got word of this, I'll post here. I can't take 100% credit for figuring it out, since I heard this from word of mouth. But I've tested it myself, and had success.

THIS WILL BE NERFED SOON, MOST LIKELY. SONY ALREADY KNOWS ABOUT THIS.

Steps:

  1. Request Mission-- DO NOT SELECT A CLASS YET!
  2. Pick one of your toons. Run the macro listed below, or start camping.
  3. With 1 second left (or less, if your good) press the select class button.
  4. IF SUCCESSFUL: You will not see "you have selected XXXX Template" text.
  5. IF FAILURE: You will see "You have selected XXX Template"... Log back in, and drop task. Try again.
  6. Log back in, and say "story" to Old Man Mckenzie. You then zone in w/ your level 85.

This works, I can guarantee it. If you're having troubles, it may due to latency or computer lag. It will probably take you a few tries to get the timing down, but it CAN BE DONE.


Be warned, there have been a lot of rumors of GMs monitoring the MMs, but with thanksgiving here (and GM crew is off) It's probably safe to do it a couple times. MAKE SURE TO GO /ANON


This macro is something I whipped up really fast to help me get the timing down... If your having trouble with it, try it out. Because there are so many Delays in it, it can sometimes not correlate 100% with the time shown in /camp, so you may have to adjust the initial delay a bit (which is why it's 4s instead of 5s--works for me.)

Also, you can use DoCrack plugin to display the time on every second camped. But, I don't like using DoCrack memory alterations (risky)...so, I'm posting this mainly as an alternative.

Didn't work for me, is this fixed? I tried a few times and eventually got it so that I pressed choose class and didn't see the message and then logged back in and said 'story' to him. But then I just zoned in as a lvl 50 enchanter.

**UPDATE**
Just tried it again, and it worked :D
 
I was able to do it every day until yesterday. I simply can't get it to work anymore. I've tried it using the macro, using a stopwatch and using the showtime crack... I can't do it now :(
 
It was still working last night.

Seems a bit trial and error on the timing - but definitely still doable. If successful then (a) you won't get the yellow confirmation text but (b) others in your group will see the option for that class go from 1 to 0.

Good luck!

even in that scenario it only works about 50% of the time at best. It can be frustrating to get it right, but it still works
 
Related question - can anyone confirm what the minimum char number is for the Naggy MM raid?

I'm 6 boxing and have the 7 raid requirement. According to allakhazam that should be enough to request them; but read somewhere else it's now upped to 12. Is this correct - and if so, any tips on a way round it gratefully accepted!

Thanks.

Should be able to put something like this in to select for you at the appropriate time, I haven't tested this. Change the # at the end to whatever monster in the list you want. May need minor tweaks on timing if it doesn't work I will mess with it tonight. Once tweaked there would be no more guess work.

This will be nerfed next patch according to the patch notes. And yes, simply adding a /click left at 29.9seconds will get it to work every time.
