Yes, this works, did it this morning during one nf. It is a wildly unsatisfying survival method at the end I'd a wildly unsatisfying strike.

Yup, just did this with rnilla and ford omnigul went down quickly

That's the strategy we've been using since day 1. Works really well

Thanks for the quick replies!

 

[AmateurHour212]

I keep swapping to Red Death and just playing around with it in different situations. I really love the gun (again, as someone who outright dislikes pulse rifles in general). Can't believe it's getting a buff

Yup, I'm a convert (to Red Death only). It's a lot of fun and the health regen is good for more than just Crota HM. Definitely not a pulse rifle guy but this is the exception.

The buff on that gun in particular is going to make it quite a weapon.

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

In about 45 to an hour

Can you save normal deathsinger or Crota check? Thanks.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

Psn is updating for me. 217Mb. D'oh. I've not turned it on since yesterday though so I guess most people have already done this hours ago.

Yes. Many had their nightfalls interrupted at the very last minute

Thanks for the quick replies!

Depending on my class, I'll usually wear light beyond nemesis or alpha lupi for faster revives. During arc burns it can get very ugly. Just make sure you stay close to the guy who's doing the reviving and also don't get too close to the edge cause your corpse might fall off and that can be a real problem

Has anyone here found success with the Omnigul strategy of one person on top of some rocks reviving a constantly dying teammate in a small room at the back of the main room (after the first wave is taken out)? Video below:

OOOhhh that would've helped out this morning. Good to know!!!

We wrecked that gul. 10 Energy never gets old as a Nightfall reward. Funniest joke in the game.

Yes used it earlier in the weekly and then watched my brother use it for nightfall. Not a bad strategy and its something different from the usual front hallway.

Anyone have the HM Crota cp and wouldn't mind sharing?

 

[dB Viper]

Had never tried before, but last night I solo'd Crota on Normal. It's just sad this is even possible. So damn easy with GHorn.

HoW better step it up.

 

[TearsOfBlood]

That would be much appreciated indeed!

Also, EroticSushi, you coming on?

 

[Ambitious]

Nf?

Adding you, ShikiAoi

Thanks for joining. That was actually kinda fun.
Except for soloing everything up to Omnigul, of course.

 

[EroticSushi]

That would be much appreciated indeed!

Also, EroticSushi, you coming on?

There's a system update that's installing right now. It's at 92%. Will join in as soon as it finishes.

Cool, just join on me in orbit when you have the chance

 

[MrS]

Nightfall #2 = 9 coins :|

Give it up

 

[ToVenusAndBack]

A shitty legendary machine gun, a legendary engram (that became shards) and a second Gjallerhorn for me this week

6 Omnigul strikes in a row is just...disgusting.

 

[EroticSushi]

PSN is acting up. Give me a minute. I think this update made it worse.

I Agree,I love my lash (Field Scout, Clown Cartridge amd Crowd Control) but it is too slow for PVP.

I use it in PVE a lot but the fatebringer is still better than it when there are enemies grouped up (ie. Laterns during Crota). On single targets it really hits like a truck.

ya i rolled plain but true perks on my lash , reload kills, reload empty, stability, and I do like it a lot ...

field scout would be good for sure, but I just shoot till empty and as long as I killed someone then it reloads in about 1.5 seconds.

I wonder though while using it, even though it has great impact the slower shooting does it actually do more DPS than fatebringer? seriously a 5% fire rate increase would have made this gun a monster.

for comparison i was doing about 915 and about 1050 per headshot on knights with fate and lash respectively.

 

[Amibguous Cad]

Wheee, 6th match we steamroll like 20k to 8k despite having 4 level 24s, heh

Gotta get on that IB wagon this week though - those 36 light boots are the last thing I need to hit 32!

[zombiemortar]

Well; so far today after 3x nightfall and 1x CE normal (3 manned it lol...)
I got:

Shitty scout rifle
Shitty shot gun
2nd Patience and Time
And my first Thunderlord.

Not too shabby so far; this week I still need to do 3x HM Crota, 2x NM Crota and some Gorgon Chest and some Atheon action.

 

[RdN]

Iron Banner is ridiculous. The amounts of XP needed in order to get something good is absurd.

You need to buy the buff with the mote of light. The buff gets stronger near the end of the week.

Even then, expect to play 2 fullish days (8 or more hours depending on your performance) to go from level 1 to 5. It's not worth it unless you really love PVP or need the gear to get to 32.

 

[deadduck]

Just starting, afk for 2mins then back. Feel free to join

I need the gear, but I simply don't have the time to grind a game for days.

I personally think that this is bad design. I can see kids getting to lvl 5 easily, but those of us who have full time jobs and families simply stand no chance.

if you just do bounties daily and then have a good 8 hour day on Sunday you can finish easy ... thats what I did last time...
don't even waste your time on Mon-Thur unless you love pvp.

If you only have one character, you could probably hit 5 if you play a couple of hours a day and win most of the time. You would need to spread it out because the effect of the buff is weaker earlier in the event.

But yeah, I did it last time to get 2 characters to 32 and I don't think I'm ever playing IB again. Even if that was when I discovered the "Bubble Train" and had one of the best times playing the game.

Oh yeah, I forgot. You need to be able to do all the bounties as well to speed up the process, so you need a good auto rifle/machine gun at the very least.

The buff gets RIDICULOUSLY stronger toward the end of the event, so honestly just play it over the weekend, especially next Monday, and it isn't bad.

 

[vctor182]

Man, that IB scout rifle looks really good, too bad it's kinetic

I didn't even bother with that bounty. there are no good AR (kidding but not really)
