Do we have confirmation that the raid is coming out right at release? Haven't had a chance to look through the thread in awhile so maybe this was already answered.
Also, I'm thinking the grind from 20 to 40 will take at least a little while so people aren't going to be able to jump in right away if the raid is out.
Stock up on some Red Bulls. The buff only lasts 30 minutes. Playing maybe a 8 hours max that day, that's 16 cans worth of codes x $3 a can; that's about $48 USD.
