Has anyone "done the math" on how much time it would take to get to IB rank 5 without bounties but with all the buffs? Assuming you arent losing more than 4 in a row... I could swear someone here had that answer yesterday.
Well, some of us have no lives, Monsieur Hawkian.
Yay!
We can handle 1 random then. Would be much better with a full GAF team.
Edit: we actually have a full team with you now!

Sorry i had some errands to run.Congrats on the Husk!
We were looking for you last night. The Hive Knights all missed you greatly during our two raid runs.

I've heard it's not a great weapon, we'll see. I've never seen an exotic weapon engram out in the wild, it would be a nice change up to have Xur sell one. I'm not holding my breath, though.

It was happening to me last week. I was getting it on other sites as well so I think it's a problem with Google Ads.
Was forced to turn on Ad Block
Haven't had a problem since.

I'm not in a rush, i just saw people partying up earlier this morning so I thought more people would want to run it right now. Hawkian it's cool, man. I know people have to work lol. I took the day off.

Google ads problem. Been happening on multiple forums. Haven't had it happen in the last couple days. So freaking annoying.

Awesome! Let's down that bastard 3 times tonight! What time works for you? Let me know and I will put a post up to get a roster going.
Sign me up and I got a +1 that wants to run it as well, just need to confirm he can make the time.
well way to rub it in!

Okay sweet- PSN(s)?

Ok thanks! Installing Ad Block. Sorry EviLore.
We waited about half an hour for you before we got a 6th. First run was with two of Todd's friends and second run was with one of them and a gaffer.
Math replacement guy put DA team on his back.
Also that knight that likes you was wondering where you were.
B and C would still wreck A. The part of the map A is on is just too isolated and open compared to the enclosed and inter-connectedness of B and C's end of the map. As it is now it's not too bad to turn it over using C as a wedge to B, and I think that's about as close to we'll get to balanced. Unless they made C a lot weaker in terms of nearby structure to hide in, I can't foresee any movement of control points making a significant difference to the flow without excluding a large portion of the map. Your layout is nice, and would make B a lot more contestable, but I think it just comes down to the map needing some structural changes to open the flow up. Maybe a route around the other side of B from A to C would help. That, or maybe my team mates can just stop capping fucking A lmao
Would it be possible for players to have a vantage point on both control points on the left side? That's why Shores of time can be a difficult. Some players can defend C and snipe into B at the same time.

Okay glad I was not going crazy wondering why I keep getting pop ups. But I am only getting it on my iphone, not my PC..

Dear RNGesus,
Over the past couple of days I have expressed in all earnest, how Im holding you in contempt for giving me nothing but Radiant Energies over the past couple of weeks, effectively stopping my progress to Level 32. However, in my moment of rage I decided to skip our weekly trip to the Hellmouth for the present week, partly due to the angst in me and partly because I was not going to let you antagonize me any longer, or so I thought.
This rash decision came with a heavy price, as the Lords of the Iron Banner had no mercy on me last night. My K/D was below 1 for the most part, I only completed 2 bounties, and even took a shot to head (in mid-air) from No Land Beyond. In addition, I have forsaken any hope of ever getting an Icebreaker, a Hawkmoon or the mighty Gjallarhorn and thank you for letting me have the Black Hammer, Thorn and Truth, all of which have served me well.
Thus, after much pondering and meditation, Ive come to accept that whatever this journey has in store for me will come when the time is right. I will no longer bicker or squabble over how unjust I may think your rewards are, and will take everything with a Coke and a smile, maybe Ill put some Jack Daniels in there every now and then, Im sure you wont begrudge me that. After all, we have to enjoy the little things.
Sincerely,
DVPredator85

You kinda can from that semi-open roof thingy next to C, but it lacks the rocks and vegetation of Venus to make it as effective for sitting and camping. And it lends itself to holding B/C against A, not A/C against B, so it just serves to make the flow more stagnant.
8 EST ok? I'm usually on earlier, but I'm not certain tonight.

The main problem with Blind Watch is more about Spawn points than it is about the Capture points themselves. The problem is B has always been in a place that doesn't allow it to have it's own spawn points. You either Spawn at A or C. B spawn exists, but you spawn there so irregularly, that it isn't really it's own point. This is why this map is so hard to balance, B doesn't work as a stand along point. The same could be said for any other map without a B specific spawn; Firebase Delphi, Exodus Blue, and Bastion.
Maybe. it depends on where exactly you would put B. In my image, I'd have it on the 2nd floor up. The floor above where C used to be, just far enough towards those outside stairs, but still barely underneath that ceiling.

Shit, I pretty much ONLY ever complete 2 bounties (the points and the melee). The others I just find to be a pain in the ass.
You know that one random is going to cap A on Blind Watch, and you will lose the match.
That's why we leave him to die while we hold our own at b and c.

It's Thursday, time to temper our expectations for tomorrow.
Xur will be selling Hard Light, no Praxic and no engrams.

Me neither. They gave us the Xbox loot table.
Edit: Ooops. Forgot that they gave me Monte Carlo twice.

Got a hunter helmet, boots, and swordbreaker from the raid this week. Love the look of the helmet especially with Thunderdevil, god of war, and chatterwhite shaders on. I cannot decide which one I like more.
Swordbreaker is an amazing shotgun. I went into the start of the VoG area and was tearing up Praetorians.

That's a good point. The spawn system in this game is really strange, after the depth the spawn system in Halo let us plumb in terms of tweaking it ourselves. You'd think somebody would have played that map a couple times and said, "hey maybe we should add a little elevated room with no LoS for a little extra spawn space in there.."
