Lead Scout's Cloak

Looks like that's a new one added with the expansion.

Could you post a screenshot if you can?

Lol! Thankfully, we we're able to get Flawless done last night!

I wonder if the flawless trophy will unlock if you do the DLC raid flawless? That would be funny if it didn't...

 

[MrAnderson]

all bungie has to do is change all the enemies in the hard raid to yellow bar 32 wizards.

I suspect they will add wizards and shields to knights for the final part. And then give weight of darkness to everyone x10 and make the chalice the only thing that gets rid of it.

I really want to make a destiny podcast now. I know how to do it. I just need people from destinygaf who want to be on it.

I'm calling the green circles on the ground from story mode that zap health making an appearance in the Hard Raid.

Spoiler

Each player can only touch one sword too.

I was pretty surprised they didn't make an appearance in the normal raid, to be honest.

Haha, nice!

So we posting our CE loadouts?

Fatebringer/Vision of Confluence/Vanquisher III
Found Verdict (yeah you read that right, crazy effective against knights & thralls) / Praedyth's Revenge
Ballarhorn, what else?

With just a touch of Ruin Wings. And some Saint-14 to turn those gatekeepers in blind little newborn puppies.

I'm calling the green circles on the ground from story mode that zap health making an appearance in the Hard Raid.

Hmm, maybe that's why they waited to release Hard Mode. They wait and see where we all stand to beat it in normal mode and then put green circles in those spots forcing us to go somewhere else.

 

[Bladelaw]

I've got a Crota checkpoint I would like to take care of before reset if anyone is interested in helping around 6:30pm US East. I have a new ice breaker and can run sniper duty. I'll post later when the time is closer.

[commish]

Yeah it's not necessary at all. Doesn't really make the fight much easier eithe IMO.

Yeah, I honestly don't see how it helps at all, since that's not really the "difficult" part of the encounter.

Well considering that TDB doesn't include a single trophy, I would not want to be the one to find out.

Someone stop me from hatching a plan to delete a character next week after I don't get any armour drops. What do you lose besides rep anyway? I've got no crucible marks, no vanguard marks, and nothing that can't be transfered to my vault. It seems like the only thing of note you lose is rep and cryptarch level which both don't matter to me at this point anyway.

[E92 M3]

So, I am wondering guys: What is the point of shards for people that do raids? I got to 31, but now what? Weren't we promised some form of exchange? Energies are always useful, but shards seem to be a lot more limited since expansion 1.

 

[FloatingDivider]

That went out of the window like 50 grinds ago dude.

 

[Owlowiscious]

melee 5 cursed thralls without dying should not have taken an hour

ok how the heck do hunters do this? throwing knife doesn't count wtffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

titan - ward of dawn blind bubble lol lol lol
warlock - scorch melee someone else for a shield, melee cursed thrall

Let's do this.

Maybe 2 hours if we have a lot of fresh players.

I don't know, this all "erase a character and grind it back to 20 again" thing seems to me like a very dangerous road to take, my friend...

[EDIT]
That cloak is nice!
Didn't know they added class items with the DLC!

I can jump in with a 31 Titan....Brolly1016. Haven't run it with this alt. Not sure how good I will be with the sword though.

Blade Dancer kills count as melee. or you could just take a friend whos a Titan pop an armor of light bubble.

 

[Dave_6]

Any idea how to get the cloaks that are seen in this video?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6saWAcGizxU

There's the red one with what looks like a white stripe(s) and the other one that is bright yellow. They aren't the new ones that the Vanguard has.

One at a time, with a full bar of health. Wait for health to regenerate, go again.

Still frustrating but totally doable.

Anyway, I forgot about Iron Banner coming back.

Going to get a lot of leveling done! Do the PvE bounties, then load up on Crucible and IB bounties. Loads of bonus XP!

Bro if I did that I'd have no characters left.

Ah cool, thanks, still need to do some stuff first, will pass for now.

 

[AmateurHour212]

Hopefully it works and we can get it done fast. Starting to get some serious wife aggro for playing too much lately. Also don't think I can stay up so late again, feel like a zombie at work today, heh.

Yeah, you and me both.

Annoying that it was taking so long last night. I'm guessing everyone was a little weary by the time we decided to do it last night and was getting a little lazy. Earlier in the day we rolled through Crota rather quickly.

Atheon is a boss where everything needs to be timed well to defeat him. Crota is that times ten. The windows are damn small and, if one person fucks up, it's basically a wipe. It's not that difficult... it's just a timing thing.

Ok cool. We need at least one 31. I've done the sword before so I can tell you what to do.

Exchange is for radiant mats. ass mats do not have an exchange.

There is a story mission where 30 of those guys run up the stairs but if you back up far enough only one comes at a time. Just have to shoot them once then knife and run away

I did it on lower level thralls, and only melee when you have full health. I did it on earth patrol where you kill the hidden thrall in the dark to spawn the whatever of Crota (heart maybe).

I would also say that if you're specced for agility, it might be useful to respec for armor. Not sure how much of a difference it would make though.

I was talking about ass mats - should have been more clear. They seem to serve no purpose besides leveling the initial pre-raid armor.

So; I don't normally post stuff from Reddit; but this was worth the read and view. Spoilers obviously.
