Re: Destiny

What is your PSN? I can't remember all on here.

Are you going to be around at all later in the week or the weekend? We can definitely group and do a normal raid.

Ran a full hard mode in 1:17 this evening. Its getting easier, and we don't use that no knight strat.

Nice. Haven't beaten Oryx at all on hard yet. Haven't even tried at all this week.

Re: Destiny

I'd like to do the (normal) raid on Sunday afternoon if anyone wants to group up. I still haven't finished it. I know through Golgoroth, so I would still need assistance beyond that in terms of tactics.

My boy on twitch does "carries" in the evening. His channel is small and he usually does two HM a night. Uses a sign up system. If you are interested let me know. He does not use the no knight strat.

Re: Destiny

Finally at 311 after running up to Oryx this morning. Got a 314 Harrowed shotgun that I put into my 1000 Yard Stare. Also got the rocket launcher at 318 with tracking. Really tempted to put it into my 310 Terminus.

Got a few more pieces that I infused into my other characters gear as well. Was nice to get a worthwhile run on hard. Still haven't beat Oryx, but my group is all over 311 now so that should help.

Thanks, but actually beat it today. Got into a pretty decent group. Tried normal strat, worked a little bit, switched to no knight, worked better. Had one run where a guy died on the second rotation, and another on the third, and still had him to a sliver. Couple times after that, the group leader rage quit and another guy had to go, replaced them, and got it on second try.

Got so many drops. 300 fusion from totems, 314 machine gun from warpriest, 313 and 302 gloves from golgie, 313 and 300 mark from daughters, and 300 and 311 gloves, 310 ruin wings, and a 315 scout rifle from Oryx. EDIT: and an engram from the shade.

I'll probably be around Saturday night.

Re: Destiny

Second time through the raid, though still haven't finished it. Got to sisters at least. Getting somewhat frustrating, though, as I don't remember having this much trouble finishing either VOG or Crota. Though this raid does feel much longer than those.

I have a Sisters checkpoint if anyone wants to run on Sunday from that point. Also up to 42 fragments now, only three more to get TOM going.

I'm not really a fan of the new raid either. The jumping puzzles when using a PUG is really hit or miss. That typically wastes at least a half an hour by itself. I just want to shoot things, this isn't Mario Bros.

Re: Destiny

The jumping puzzles, I believe, are there to give the whole team a good idea of who should run relic. I don't love them either, but really only 3 people need to make it across the ship puzzle.

Re: Destiny

Well, just got a second hunter to 40 so if anyone is doing a normal raid just let me know.

Re: Destiny

That's just dumb, there's no correlation. Relic jumps are always the same, stationary, and easy, ship jumps are moving, a lot of them are more about feathering a drop, some are simply about getting a high enough jump.

The reason there is a jumping puzzle is because VoG had a jumping puzzle, and neither serve any real purpose and both are by far the worst parts of the raid. Even doing it all without deaths you are still talking like 30 minutes of near zero fighting and absolutely zero reward. It's padding so it doesn't feel like the boss rush it is*.


*Not that being boss rush is necessarily bad, it's just you remove these little useless obnoxious little segments and that is what it would be.

Re: Destiny

You say that and now they are gonna add snipers to the jumping puzzle before the deathsingers

Re: Destiny

I've also never had a group take 30 minutes there. That's ridiculous. There is literally only one jump that is remotely difficult on the ship jumping puzzle. Half of them you don't even need to jump, you can just run off one ship to the next. If it takes even 10 minutes, you move on. The moldering shards aren't making much of a difference, especially on Hard Mode.
