Researcher's Under Fire

Seriously, who designed this dumpster fire of a quest/event? Have to be on a certain time, have to be in a raid, can’t start raid join too early or it bugs and the timer resets.

I have yet to complete the damn event after multiple weeks. If I am not online after server reset then there goes another week. My server is dead and I never see a group forming except on Tuesdays. Just joined a raid and the timer reset to another 30 minutes.
