Re: Destiny

I'm about to quit destiny for the fact I can't get in a raid group to get above 309 light. Everyone has requirements of players being 310 or above. It's ridiculous lol. I'll never be at the requirement if I can't get in a hard raid.

Honestly, you just gotta make your own group. At 309, you're not really pulling your own weight at Oryx, and especially during Oryx Challenge week.

Destiny

Remember when bungie banned gjallarhorn because it messed with looking for group websites?

Lol light levels.

I spontaneously felt like playing destiny since I saw my friends online. They invited me to raid with them but cause my light was 305, they were like nah bitch.

Way to go bungie. Way. To. Be. Inclusive.

Pulled my own weight at 296 my first hard mode. I've got touch of malice and a Titan bubble I think I can hold my own. I mean being one light under 310... It's just frustrating it wouldn't hurt to help guys that are right on the cusp or at least give them a chance u know?

Uh, you absolutely did not pull your weight. At 296, you literally can't do any damage to Oryx. There's a huge drop-off under 311, but it's possible (but you have to be really good). But under 300, you don't do any damage.

Anything under 311 on Oryx, you are going to be a hindrance. That doesn't mean it can't be done, but it's significantly harder, especially if you are killing the Knights, as you have to this week. If you try next week, when it should be Warpriest Challenge, you should have better luck. People will be more likely to take a lower level through Oryx when there isn't the challenge, and the Warpriest challenge by itself will get you a 310 and 320 weapon along with a 320 artifact, which will help a ton getting you up.

First you are flat out wrong. As I was in that raid he absolutely "pulled his weight". Totems, war priest, golgorath, runner on sisters, ogres and Knights. He did what was asked of him: don't die and kill things. Given that everyone else was above 315 and had a ToM, he didn't have a lot to do but he did it and we beat HM Oryx with a 296 in the group. It's this elitest attitude that's the problem not his light level.

I have trouble finding a group too, and I'm 312. Seems everyone wants 315 or higher. I guess they were all 315 when it first came out.

Re: Destiny

If you guys have trouble finding people, I recommend https://www.the100.io/. You can schedule game times or join other people who have done so.

Here's a link to the group I'm in (Echo 775), which has a pretty steady flow of different activities:
https://www.the100.io/groups/137

Everyone I've played with has been pretty cool, and specific requirements are quite rare unless someone has a finite amount of time and wants to do it "quickly." I find it does help getting to actually schedule an event rather than relying on iffy PUGs.
