We didn't cheese'd the run. Everything was legit. :3

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

OK I want that shader.

Doing the weekly 30, could use some help. PSN Hoodbury

People keep saying this but it's not true. The info showing you the players level is not showing you the level they were when they beat the raid. I think it's showing you the level they are right now and they probably switched gear.

B-b-but we need someone to witch hunt! Making fun of Bungie can only go on so long!

 

[zewone]

We beat Primeguard? Nice.

We da best.

 

[everyday math]

lol...

also it was tripleWreck who did it first and they didn't cheese ...

Where does it say they didn't cheese it?

 

[silver.tongue]

Can you guys post Drizzay's twitch link?

 

[gutterboy44]

Anyone up for a Nightfall and Weekly x2 run?

 

[Dave_6]

I know HM CE just dropped but I have no character capable of running it. That being said, anyone up for 2x Nightfall and weeklies tonight around 6:30 CST?

confirmed. you lot crushed the bridge and deathsinger especially.

 

[Owlowiscious]

I guess I'll stream who cares?

twitch.tv/pikapuff

stopped streaming due to lag

 

[Jinjo]

I didn't know they cheesed. Wtf world first team.

If true I wonder how Bungie will react to it. It hasn't happened before that a team cheesed to world first. I am actually kind of glad that it happened. Maybe Bungie will take a hard look at themselves and actually learn to properly develop/test/patch their raids.

I'm assuming they used the warlock nade/disconnect glitch. That's not even just a cheese anymore, that's an exploit.

That's not TripleWreck. Did you look at the link? It's "one and done".

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Can you guys post Drizzay's twitch link?

You wanna watch the lag and frustration :3

 

[Kadey]

Rhad is suggesting that they obviously cheesed not that they actually did. Only way to know is to see a replay from them.

 

[LiK]

not talking about you, the world first finishers.

 

[xplicitone]

Yeah, but it's not really consistent yet.
I think at least 2 titans are needed.
One to always put up BoL. The other puts up WoL.

The last few attempts all went to the Ogres and got him down decently, ~50% a couple times. Not consistent but started to get more consistent towards the end for sure

 

[Gr1mLock]

It's nothing special. Crota fight is a bitch now.

I'm not really sure what I expected. It seems to be exactly what is usually associated with a 'hard mode'. Enemies with more health/damage output and other enemy types.

 

[Kadey]

I know HM CE just dropped but I have no character capable of running it. That being said, anyone up for 2x Nightfall and weeklies tonight around 6:30 CST?

I can probably still solo everything but Crota for low levels.

 

[LiK]

basically. you fight him the exact same way except they added some annoying bitches to the mix. enjoy the new mechanics.

You might learn some new curse words too

 

[Trace]

Many attempts later and I have gotten Word of Crota!

Damn that was a tough fight, the reward was worth it though.

 

[everyday math]

What happened to Crotas other forms?

 

[realcZk]

Where does it say they didn't cheese it?

the better question is where does it say they did? lol... i watched their stream, they didnt cheese any part of it, im sure the VOD will be up on twitch if you're interested...

 

[Deku Tree]

Rhad is suggesting that they obviously cheesed not that they actually did. Only way to know is to see a replay from them.

Well triplewreck did it with like no wipes in about 37 minutes or something and one guy had to go to the tower to get his ghorn. But the worlds first did it about ten minutes faster. And tripleWreck were saying it didn't look possible without cheese to do it that fast.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Did anyone get Crux of Crota?

 

[Sword Of Doom]

is it even possible to do this with a lvl 31?

I heard first team that beat it had 2 31's

 

[KxoZz]

It's a really lazy hardmode though. Replaced jumping knights with wizards, added the enrage at the end and literally nothing else.

 

[realcZk]

That's not TripleWreck. Did you look at the link? It's "one and done".

yeah wrong link, thanks

Is the lag that bad?

If I can see a good Ogre strat I dont mind.

 

[Korosenai]

So is the best way to do Crota just to focus on Boomers and the wizard and kill them as fast as possible?

 

[zewone]

Did anyone get Crux of Crota?

Not on our team.

 

[Darryl M R]

What happened to Crotas other forms?

Ssssh. Just forget.

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

I heard first team that beat it had 2 31's

It said 31s on the scoreboard but as been mentioned before that could just be due to them swapping armour

 

[PrivateWHudson]

What happened to Crotas other forms?

We already saw them. Heart of Crota, Soul of Crota, Eyes of Crota, ect.

 

[everyday math]

the better question is where does it say they did? lol... i watched their stream, they didnt cheese any part of it, im sure the VOD will be up on twitch if you're interested...

I don't know if they did or not. IV been at work all day. All I was saying is I hate people who cheese. Not if they actually did it or not.

I don't even know who the fuck those people are.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Yeah I killed one of the acolytes and he sudden pop back up on my screen T_T in addition to the debuff genades didn't work, etc

 

[zewone]

We tried to keep the boomers alive because if you kill them, that spawns the wizard. The wizard blocks a lot of Gjallarhorn shots meant for Crota and can kill sword holder easy.

 

[realcZk]

i got the link wrong in my first post anyways, i guess triplewreck was second to complete it (but the first to complete it without cheese apparently). i can confirm they didnt cheese anything, dont know about "one and done".

 

[Deku Tree]

TripleWreck wasn't first. They were confirmed top three. Another crew did it ten minutes or so faster.

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

What's wrong with the normal ogre strat?

 

[Kor of Memory]

What happened to Crotas other forms?

What do you mean?

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Not on our team.

Interesting, I wonder of Crux of Crota's drop rate is the same as Husk of the Pit.

That would suck.

 

[Jinjo]

What happened to Crotas other forms?

There's two. The Soul of Crota you beat in story and Crota himself. Urk is just a filthy spindoctor.

 

[Korosenai]

We tried to keep the boomers alive because if you kill them, that spawns the wizard. The wizard blocks a lot of Gjallarhorn shots meant for Crota and can kill sword holder easy.

How did you keep them alive without killing them, or them killing you?

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I don't know if they did or not. IV been at work all day. All I was saying is I hate people who cheese. Not if they actually did it or not.

I don't even know who the fuck those people are.

If theyre seriously going for world first then they had to cheese don't you think? If Bungie had said "no cheesing will be accepted" then that would be different

 

[Darryl M R]

Does Crota have more health now or no?

 

[Namikaze1]

I'll be making an extensive strategy post once I rested up a bit. I'm trying to calm my nerves down. But let's just say Titans are the real MVP.

 

[xCobalt]

A lot of people are making a big deal out of world first except for the team that actually did it. Even if they did cheese it, afaik they didn't make any claims.

how irritating
