Calling dibs on this amazing group of people for a fresh Crota run tomorrow:

Haha yeah that was a great time. Can't wait to run it again.

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

I reckon, it's gonna be Valus with 'all burn'. EVERYTHING WILL BURN.

Also for Crota and

Spoiler

sword bearer duties, has anyone experimented with blink?

 

[Auto_aim1]

I need to do 25 strikes for Bad Juju *sigh* The grind is real.

 

[Dr_LawyerCop]

Anyone wanna do Crota? Got a full team. Running it a second time and we need the checkpoint.

Thanks for the smooth run earlier. I had pretty much given up hope that I'd clear it before the reset, but having some people with experience was super helpful.

Got the raid shotgun. I don't use shotguns, but I guess I'll start until I get the raid fusion or sniper.

I will be home soon and have the checkpoint , Titan 31

 

[jaaz]

Any word on the patch to make raid armor 30 base light? Is it coming today?

 

[Deku Tree]

Any word on the patch to make raid armor 30 base light? Is it coming today?

No word when it's coming. Sounded like they thought it was not enough to warrant a patch on its own. But whenever the next patch cam they would include that...

 

[Sleepy Buddha]

Have people been sharing the normal VOG gatekeeper checkpoint? I need to farm glimmer and the Exclusion Zone is so fucking mind numbing it makes me wanna kill myself (not literally of course).

 

[Forerunner]

I hope the next patch isn't until after the weekly reset, so I can get the solo chest from the raid again. >_>

 

[allday247]

9pm GMT Corta Raid


1) Me - Milkypooz lvl 30 Titan
2) ICortosis - 30 lock
3) Mindlog 31 titan/lock
4) Nuzska 31 titan
5) Greyblade 31 titan/Warlock
6) TheCommonDan - 31 Hunter

Do you guys wanna finish off the raid tonight? Corta CP. Start around 9pm GMT again. Can also be later if necessary.

 

[Namikaze1]

Fucking Omnigul...

"Oh? You got my health down to a quarter. Bitch please."
*summons sisters*

Valus: Rockets. Rockets everywhere. A rocket for you. And you. And you. Oh, I can't forget about you.
And if that isn't enough, then say hello to my little friend!

 

[jaaz]

Thanks. I hope they release it along with IB. I Have been lucky enough to get chest, arms and legs from the Crota Raid, have it fully upgraded minus the radiant shards armor slots AND using a fully upgraded exotic helmet and my light is... 29. It's so ridiculous that the game forces me to use VoG gear or Vanguard gear while I wait for the 57,000 radiant shards I need to drop. At least let me be 30 or 31...

 

[Shito]

Shhhh!
... But yeah.

 

[Ambitious]

In case anyone needs to do Siege of the Warmind on Heroic for the bounty, I've just started it. Feel free to join: ps_flocki

edit: Done.

 

[BLU-82]

I hope the next patch isn't until after the weekly reset, so I can get the solo chest from the raid again. >_>

Is that confirmed being patched out?

 

[gdt]

Anyone need to do one more weekly heroic?

 

[Namikaze1]

Argh! If I had done the Shoulder Charge bounty, I would be rank 2 today. Dammit!

 

[Byron Bluth]

Anyone want to kill Crota around 6:30pm EST?

Mindlog you down? Along with the others we were with, zombie, toasty, sushi, hydruxxo?

So it seems if you have a self-res warlock during the

Spoiler

Crota fight, your team can wipe to a Knight at the beginning in the starting chamber, then have the last one to die be the warlock. Before the wipe/reset counter hits 0:00, he self-ressurects and revives the rest of the team. This removes the "Presence of Crota" debuff for everyone throughout the entire fight, allowing everyone to health-regen as normal without the chalice.

I'll take Spongebob anytime over Omnigul. That room has to be the most poorly designed end level of any strike. The others may be fucked in one way or another, but at least there's room to manouver.

I can kinda understand when people bitch about strikes, but let's be real. Any strike is much better than Omnigul's.

Holy fuck if true. Warlocks are delivering your pizza again ladies and gents. With extra cheese

Confirmed. We did it last night a bunch of times. Warlock needs to revive during the countdown.

 

[zombiemortar]

It works. Takes about 45 seconds in the start of the fight to do it.

lol, leveled up my red death to get health regen, warlock cheese occurs. FML.
You know it's going to take them 5 years to fix this.

Does it have

[zombiemortar]

They can die to anything as long as it's at the start. The Knight was the easiest because he can kill most people in one hit.

 

[EL CUCO]

Mindlog you down? Along with the others we were with, zombie, toasty, sushi, hydruxxo?

If you can hold off an hour, I'm down.

Imo, I think you're right. If your team has the strat down,

Spoiler

very few people will be taking damage. The only real danger is for the lone sniper (depending on the strat you're using)

 

[Shito]

If no one ever talks about it, it'll never get fixed

But if one talks a lot about it, maybe they'll fix this one but leave the first chest.
Hmmmm...

Hey Manp!

Were you able to finish Crota yesterday?

nope... couldn't find a group

fuck Warlocks

It's really not.

Warlocks are so weak. Needing cheese and revives to beat anything.

 

[dB Viper]

Beating the final boss with a bunch of LFG randoms (after about 100 tries, across 3 days) felt so good. Boss is incredibly tough and the timing has to be impeccable.

 

[Rymuth]

Lvl 29 Warlock up for...well, I guess whatever. Heroic Bounties for Erin, weeklies.

 

[gutterboy44]

Is farming glimmer the new farming mats? I never have enough and my time with Xur was limited not by coins, but glimmer. I missed my Thunderlord upgrade because I didn't have a chance to grind glimmer saturday night. The glimmer bonus buffs via grimoire + consumable are laughable. Why so stingy with giving out glimmer on top of the really low cap?

The Eris bounties are horribly redundant already. Rank 3 is going to be mind numbing to get to...especially across alts.

It isn't. We beat him without resorting to these lame tactics AND without losing anyone in the process.

mhm

It was good to see Todd finally leave his crutch behind. Thank you, Crota.

Yeah, seems that way. The cabal farm on exclusion zone is alright though. One resupply code will net you about 3-5k glimmer depending on how fast you clear the first part. And you'll definitely pick up atlas 1 resupply code during the fight so you don't have to worry about running out.

Wow. Crazy. Bungie is terrible at testing the warlock res. will be fun while it lasts.

Sound 9GMT

b..but i need to finish it before the reset! i got nothing from the other checkpoints

btw, sounds good for tomorrow

 

[PrivateWHudson]

Yeah, it works. I didn't like it the one time I did it. It resets Ice Breaker and I was on Tower duty. Also, the Warlock can't use his super during the fight since he would want to keep it up for the next round of cheese.
