Is there anyway to stop Crota from moving?

Take his shield down and he'll kneel. Hit him with the sword then. It must be timed perfectly tho. Because he doesn't stay down long.

Unless you just mean not moving at all. He always will walk to the right or left eventually.

So has anyone posted about the cheese method for the
bridge?
Click to expand...
I sherpa'd a group through it yesterday, but we did it legit. It's actually really easy to do legit. You just have to listen to me lol.

titans first across to blind gatekeepers. Warlocks last because I hear they can jump the gap. Have not tried this yet. Only be on mid if you need the bridge open. Once 3 people are on the away side the 3 people on home side need to go over to the platform on the left (the Pwn Strategy™) they wait for sword bearer and focus fire. When sword bearer is up and they are shooting it, that's when away side gets bridge open. Totem people need to try and agro gatekeeper to keep from killing mid, or just blind them. Away side need to watch out for wizards on left side and once everyone is over 2 ogres. Burn them as quickly as possible. As soon as both are killed you'll complete the encounter. Also pro tip. Heavy sword attack will stun gatekeeper. 5 heavy as lvl30, 3 as lvl31

Has anyone tried the BADGER CCL Scout from the vanguard quartermaster? Compared to VoC it has a significantly slower rate of fire but nice bump in impact.

I'd like to know how it feels, especially if you're used to VoC

The raid hunter boots gives extra agility for sword bearing. Best class confirmed.

Anybody has to do the Eris bounty for last DLC mission heroic need help? Need to do it on both characters and I need a decoy as usual.

Wow at ruin wings and gjallerhorn combo. Nothing stands in my way now. I'm a single dps machine at all times. Never have to use purple synths now on the raid. Very very good exotic, my new favorite.

It's the same for everyone. My Titan raid boots have it too.

No, he follows a set pattern though. Mid > Right > Mid > Left repeat


Once he's at mid you have to be fast in taking down the Swordbearer or shoot his shields down so he can't move.

We can't shoot his shield down twice, he always manages to dodge rockets from Hezen...Should we just use Ice Breaker or VoC if we don't have Gjallarhorn?

It's a shotgun. Purely pvp weapon, though they are pretty solid in the first CE section. Fusion rifle still probably better there though.

Fatebringer da god tho.

If only VoG had given me it one of 100 times I beat the hm Templar. :mad: everyone walking around with them except me.

Feels a lot slower but unless you are playing pvp it shouldn't be a problem.

Sadly it seems that Ghorn is crucial IMO. 2 on the team makes getting it down a joke.

In all our runs we had no Gjallarhorns at all so we used Icebreaker for the first time to take him down and then switched to Corrective Measure second time around. Worked really well..

Finally got mine yesterday. So much fun ripping mobs apart.

I actually got a 330 scout rifle with the same exact perks as Fatebringer, no arc damage of course. That's gonna be useful too haha.

I did tht today too. IF you have the dps it's crazy easy. If not its a struggle.


I ran it three times this week and got 3 black hammers. Wonder what the odds are there.

Thanks for raiding yesterday, gdt. Took ages (and I'm running on 3 hours of sleep for work) but getting dat Black Hammer was worth it (raid gloves were the kicker).

Theres two pillars on the left of the bridge. If everyone jump on that and theres a warlock, someone actives the bridge. Then everyone jumps off and the warlock kills himself at the end. When the countdown hits 1, the warlock reviews himself and it should start the next phases with the adds spawning across the bridge. Kill the ogres and the bridge should form.

That's the one I got my eye on. It will be mine next week when I get the marks for it. It has similar but slightly better stats than the A.1Fjblahblah Scout I am using now which is a precision shot machine. Perks look ok.

It'll be 32 light. 5 upgrade slots and 6 light to add (1, 1, 1, 1, 2) but 3 raid pieces plus an upgraded exotic would be 36+32+32+32=132=lvl31

Disappointing but I guess I have enough shards to get the first bubbles on my boots.

I decided to save this Nightfall cheese because I wanted to keep it to myself, but I have a feeling that Bungie cannot patch this without making the strike incredibly boring. So hopefully they won't.

HAHAHAHA didn't realise so many people worked this out. Probably should have had it out day one then.

But the bridge part is my favorite part to do legit...

...But that death singer part... Fuk dat bitch. Still fun cause it's like a precision SWAT raid strikeforce. But man just need a better way to deal with knights

Made it to the
singer
part of the raid with my usual group. It was our first time for maybe 4 of us.

Didn't get anything but shards, but I should be 31 with two characters by the reset.

Oh, and finally got the Horn! Off of a nightfall. Two of them dropped. Soo good. Our raid group just got 200% better. :p

This is just simpler. Normally if you take down her shields she won't attack so the reviver can just go back at the start of each wave. Doing it this way makes it very unlikely a Boomer randomly comes up and shoots.

Either way, it's easy, and if you don't have the no flinch skull she goes down really quickly.

I just found out how op is the Black Hammer sniper rifle from Crota's End. Replenishing mag from critical hits means it's damn beastly in PVE.

RIP Archon priest, Septiks Prime, Devilwalker, Sekiron.
