I don't understand your point.
Bugs are obviously bad, bugs that are more prominent are badder.
Overall, it seems that the bugs from CE are not as prominent, thus are not as bad as the VoG bugs.
I'm not saying we should just suck it up. I'm saying it's easier to work around than what we've delt with in the past.
Not sure why you're being a jerk about it.
I'm pretty sure Aethon still hold the belt for worst bug. Having a detainment shield put around you, to only then be teleported and thus instantly killed seems a lot worse than a missing sword. Waiting for another sword isn't out of the question.
Good luck to you all. If you can overcome flawless in it's glitchiest form, you got this.
Drizzay team is missing me. but I have to help my raid crew.
How am I being the jerk when you are obviously implying, "if it's not my problem, it's not a big deal"?

Difference is that, with Atheon, you could overcome the bugs and it wasn't a necessary wipe. I know some people who actually like the bugs because it made the fight a little more interesting once it had become trivial. I just don't think that will happen with HM CE. The fight may become easier as our strategy improves but the timing necessary is such that you'll just have to wait for a bug-less run to take him down. Most of the bugs in CE lead to a necessary wipe.

So I leveled up my Word of Crota today and I gotta say... very disappointing.
My biggest problem is that the phantom gift perk is useless. If you use explosive rounds the perk never triggers since the explosive damage interrupts the 3 precision shots chain.
This is really annoying because the perk description says "rapidly landing 3 precision shots will return 1 round to the mag", when in reality it requires "rapidly landing 3 precision shots in a row..." That means any other damage between shots (explosive or hive disruptor) negates the perk, same as Black Hammer.
Really hope this is fixed soon.

From what I've seen on HM CE, yes it is out of the question.

What makes it out of the question? I don't think anyone has ever seen an enrage timer that wasn't caused by HP% yet.
It's always been like that unfortunately. They added "rapidly" to try and indicate that ever since they reworded the Cleansing Light bounty for example, but alas...
It still enrages if you don't get him to 10% same timer as normal.

I'm beginning to think I missed a lot of activity in this thread after I rage quit last night...
By arguing under the concept of these bugs being anecdotal, you are saying that it's not a big deal, otherwise you would simply take the stance of this being another bug that needs to be fixed, nothing more, nothing less. I have seen the disappearing sword bug MANY times, arguably at the same rate as the portal glitch in VoG.
You missed everyone else rage quitting after their own losses.
Oh yes it is in this form, no sword screws up the timing of everything and you're likely to hit the enrage timer fishing out Ogre's maybe more than once.
With Atheon as long as you have 4 people alive you can still soldier on, which is the core difference.

I'll be on around 4:30. It's stressing me out that I haven't beat Crota yet but I'm not even mad about it.
You missed Grave's post, Hawkian's post, people declaring that they'll never do CE HM once they beat it once or get certain items, and a bunch of other stuff.

You use it and you're getting booted.
oh wait, I missed Grave and Hawk's post about this? darn it
You know you're never doing this again once you get Word of Crota. I just want to at least get that gun before giving up the Deathsinger and Crota portions of the raid until I get the AR.

No one has seen it because no one can last long enough to get there.
I'm sort of guessing but, given the Bungie way, I think it's a safe bet.

I will use it! Just watch!
We saw the regular enrage timer. it's still there, timing seemed pretty similar, but I could have been delusional from doing it for 2 hours.
But what if that doesn't happen today?
level up that baby Titan so we have more bubbles.

Okay, but how many videos have you seen taking down Crota on Hard Mode involve dealing with Ogres a second time? It seems approaching the timer based enrage is pretty rare, thus, you have time to miss a sword.
I never said, nor implied that it wasn't a big deal. All I ever said was that they seem to be less frequent compared to Vault of Glass. That's it. I'm not trying to belittle anyone's personal experience, just making an observation.
I feel like you just want someone to argue with here, but I've yet to actually disagree with you.

I'm thinking the ideal team would be a mixture of:
I would prefer to have a Red Death to try out (why did I never buy it?!?) but I've never actually quantified how much health a SUROS Regime returns. In fact, I forgot it even did.
- 2x Saint Helm Bubble Titans with SUROS/Red Death
- 3x Apothesis Veil Sunsingers with Gjallarhorns
- 1x Hunter with blink strike for Sword.

Well, then you're doom to suffer Crota's wrath while I go have a dance off with Shaxx.But what if that doesn't happen today?
People could just afk after clearing the adjacent rooms from the crystal and time it if one was bored enough to :lol

Completely true every day but normal release day, and to a lesser extend HM release day. We should have killed him so many runs that we fucked up, a tiny sliver left. We knew exactly what to do and should have finished it but every run that we didn't ruin was ruined by a disappearing sword and/or terrible lag. I think most of the runs ruined by Crota standing up at different times for different people are due to lag but there could also be glitchiness involved as it seems (anecdotal) to be worse since the anti-not-cheese-cheese patch.
I've been on record as saying (imho of course) VoG glitchiness is exaggerated in certain respects. Maybe I'll go into more detail at some point if I can, gotta get ready to run again soon though. Just my 2 cents as someone who has

That's not really true. In VoG hard, Oracles would be invincible, wipe. Containment kills you, wipe. Atheon teleports one dude, wipe. Portal puts you in random place, wipe.
I'm actually unsure of any vog glitches that don't at least kill one person which is almost a wipe every time
sounds like some drama. thanks
We got to a second set of Ogres. Enrage is right around this time.

I hope Shaxx beats your ass.
I'm pretty sure Suros fills it up. I was at full health almost always for that fight.
