Destiny |OT16| Enrage is here, there, everywhere...

I'm imagining this long, huge ass hallway with scaffolds on either side of the hallway. You and your team enter the hallway and it's all quiet. After walking about 4-5 meters, you are being shot at but there's no enemy in sight. You figure out that there are stealth snipers perched on the scaffolds. After killing a certain number of them (every time you kill one, another takes its place
Hail Hydra!
) and moving up a bit, the lights dim and you immediately hear the Vandals' battle cry. You and the team keep walking towards the exit which is closed off by lasers so no running towards the exit. You and your team are immediately assaulted by a battalion of stealth vandals that will have Lightswitch on hard. You're now being attacked by stealth melee and sniper vandals. Your main objective is to reach the panel next to the door and having Ghost disable the laser cause bastard needs to be useful for once in a raid. You can stand by the exit but stealth vandals will spawn on from all sides. Once the last laser is disable, a mini boss battle will take place. From the hallway's exit, a Wolf Walker, shielded shanks, and non-stealth vandals will pop out, forcing you to retreat back. From the hallway's entrance, another Wolf Walker, shielded shanks, and non-stealth vandals will pop out. Once you destroy one, an Archon Priest will come out from the hallway's exit. In normal, he is accompany by non-stealth vandals and dregs. In hard mode, the legion of stealth vandals will not despawn for the fight. In order to beat this part, both Wolf Walkers must be destroyed before killing the Archon Priest as they provide him with a near impenetrable shield.

I call this part Death Row.

Your welcome, Bungie. ;)

I like it but the arena increasingly feels like it's going to be a two part raid.
1) Path to arena
2) Arena itself
 
From the IGN First-Bloodborne footage thread:

Much thanks to Milkham, iRAWR and Firewalker (the Hawkmoon thief) and Mescalito for helping me and my buddy get caught up on our Crota/Atheon kills. You da real MvPs :").

Seriously, none of you needed them, but you helped out. That's why this community is my jam.

Welcome home, Phaethon.

So I just read an interesting post on reddit and thought I would ask about it here...

Apparently someone has this strategy for Crota hard mode, where the sword runner just stays in the ogre room and hides in between swords...what the hell, can't believe I never thought of this. I always get smashed by boomers after running back to the crystal room, this just seems so much safer.

Any fellow sword runners use this strat as well? I run a blade dancer, curious what you guys do.

I want to get my buddy the VOC before the reset so I want to try an Atheon kill if anyone is interested. I have a gatekeeper checkpoint on normal but anyone with a Atheon cp on normal or hard would be very much appreciated.

It's a strategy that the 2-man Crota crew utilized, though obviously a bit different when using an entire crew.

Keep it to yourself then.
So you want to hear it then? :p

1) Path to arena
2) Arena itself
It's a 3 parter.

1) The area outside the arena where you fight legions of Fallen while opening the gate to the Arena.
2) Death Row
3) The Arena itself


Basically like Crota's End (cave, bridge, Crota's boss room) and splitting the final room into two phases.

As a bladedancer swordbearer, I always run into one of the ogre rooms after the sword despawns. I jump on one of the coffins/doorways, crouch cloak, then run back to the summoning room for ammo/orbs for my next run.
 
Anyone doing a nightfall run right now or soon that needs another person?

I need to run it one more time with one of my characters

I do this. Just be sure to hide and not let the swordbearer see you. If he does he can agro on to you and will be out of sight of your team mates leaving you to solo him.

If this pic is anything to go by, The Arena Hard Mode will just be an artificial difficulty bump like Crota's End Hard mode.


Sounds like Horde mode :-/
