Nice! Crota down x2.
I didn't think there'd be other people, there weren't when I was there 10 minutes ago. Also he just melted. Thought he was supposed to be tougher than that.
You can send two people out of the map and they can stay up out of the line of fire and use rocket launchers to take down Crota's shields and random Knights whenever you need them too. And you can duplicate the thing that makes your health recharge multiple times. We had three of them in one attempt.
As far as I know you can't cheese it akin to something like Atheon. But those two help a lot.
I also heard that if someone dies just as Crota is vulnerable, his animation gets stuck and you get extra time to damage him with a sword. Didn't test that one out though as the pressure to wipe out the Spirit Bomb was a bit much while dealing with everything else

I'll join you if you still need one, although I was on blackout with respect to the new raid mechanics.
You want to tag along for the final part?
Sure, let me join your Fireteam.

This is bullshit. Because I don't have the dark below dlc I am currently locked out of the daily heroic story, daily strike and weekly strike.

Did Crota twice tonight. Great job to everyone on the team. Huge thanks to Boguester/Drizzay for being the Sword master for both runs.
I think it's from the boots that give a longer slide.
Huuuuuge thanks to the team I just beat Crota with, pic in the above post. Special thanks to Boguester/Drizzay and DekuBleep for doing some incredible explanations of roles. Boguester rocked that sword hard. Also, if you have Gjallarhorn, hug it tight. So good.
Swords seemed to actually NOT be optimal to get rid of all those Knights D: Also my helmet got an upgrade during all that so I'm lvl 29, and ready for some Nightfall and VoG Hard now

My hunter is up to level 30. He needs to run the nightfall ASAP
Aww damn. Well if you guys give it another go later on let me know. This nightfall is a beast. Definitely need someone to stay back and play it safe due to the enemies spawning in the entrance and all of the arc damage everywhere. Two thunderlords and a plan c could be enough though.
Sorry - saw you too late.
Wie did not make it though - wipe right at the end.

Well. Some of us plan on doing VOG on hard today so hang around some time during the day.
I've carried many people under leveled during weekly and daily stuff and if I'm ever doing them you are free to join.
VoG is an awesome experience, worth it even if there wasn't any loot at all.
The Raids are the only things that are keeping me playing this game. Thanks Luke (& Raid team).
Emblem is glitched and won't be at post office if your inventory is full.
Think I'm going to level mine up just cos they have the Expansion I symbol on them.
Is that what all those symbols are? I was wondering what it means. I have a few stuff with it.
You want to do daily heroic? Looks like it's just the final DLC mission.

any interest in getting a late night VoG game together? I am 26 hunter so I'll need substantial help of course... PSN is blacksalad_
Sure. Was just about to say "Oh I already did it." Then I forgot it just reset an hour and a half ago.
Guess I might try to make use of the raid group thread this weekend then. Nothing else to do without owning the DLC.

Sorry for the late response. I finally got some sleep last night. I think we did it with 2 or 3 first timers, as well. but everyone understood their role and was locked in. Boguester/Drizzay ran the
sword up Crota's ass.

I got the emblem, but my heavy weapons were full. Uh oh.

Once I have the general vanguard rep to level 2 and am working on getting marks to buy my first legendary I'm guessing its best to equip a faction item so while gaining marks I'm also working on a faction rep?
Edit: my crucible rank is currently zero but I imagine its far quicker just getting a faction rep up for buying crucible gear then the normal crucible rep.

This game is just filled with instances of genius gamedesign isn't it? Been sitting at skywatch in the loot cave for the last half an hour waiting for a stupid public event so I can kill some dude named urzok for stupid gloves so I have to grind less marks on my final alt. INSPIRING SHIT DUDES.

Damn Eris... When you gonna show us hunters some love?
If you are leveling up a faction, you can't level up vanguard as well. It's one or the other. Same goes for the crucible.

Yeah I get that. I just got vanguard to level 2, given I'm only level 24 right now and do not have the dlc so I can't see a reason to get level 3 right now so am just figuring out the most efficient rep to grind next. I need to earn more vanguard marks to actually buy a legendary so figured the best option would be to equip a faction item to gain rep whilst doing pve related grinding for the vanguard marks. Was posting to see if I was missing something or is this actually the best choice?
I assume you can earn vanguard marks with a faction item equipped.

So I've got a horse shoe up my ass or they changed their RNG...
Last night normal raid: only raid piece for lock I didn't get dropped then Atheon gave me hawkmoon.
Tonight in Crota the first two checkpoints netted me the raid chest and arms. Then I ran another normal VOG, I got the Titan chest I've been chasing since before I had more than one character, then I got a Monte Carlo.
The messed up part about those exotics is that they were 2/3 of the ones that I've never had.

Holy fucking dicktits fuck this game, urzok just spawned after an hour of waiting and he had lightning shield and 3000000000 adds that spawned, I was solo and he despawned before I could kill him. Fuck Bungie may they drown in a bag of dicks.
If only you where here an hour ago. There were like 5+ people there and he just melted like butter. I was surprised after hearing everyone talk him up.
I'm down.

I had one lvl 8 guy in the zone with me. He didn't stand a chance honestly.

This is great, I had two hours to play today, I've already spent one hour sitting in skywatch waiting for urzok. Who the hell thought this was a good idea?
-sigh- I guess I'll wait until the afternoon for people who actually read the thread after they ask for fireteam members for Nightfall...
I'm down, but I need about 15-20 minutes until I'm ready.
Already turned off the PS4, unfortunately, and went to play something else.

Finally have three Light +33 gear and one Exotic +36 gear equipped. Now I just have to farm the shit out of the helium filaments. I would use the marks I have, but I'm saving those for Legendary weapons I might find worth getting
