Destiny |OT23| This Train is Bound for Mercury

Okay all invites have been sent for those who were interested. If you don't join in me your space may get filled.

Also would someone mind being the RL if people don't know what to do as I won't have a mic due to the kids being in bed!

Cheers!

Anyone is doing PoE 35 ?

I've got a Warlock, so we would need a Titan and anything else, with a rocket launcher AT LEAST as powerful as Gjallahorn and more.

Hell, I'm not even thinking about the burns anymore
Minions will spawn at predictable health intervals
That means you can handle the adds, handle the mechanics, damage the boss, and repeat in phases. I'm psyched!

Game, blouses.

Skolas dead. Took a little bit. The rock strat works! It's particularly amusing when Skolas manages to teleport up close and the fight turns into some perverse version of Uroxx's lava floor. Everybody jump, get away from the walls and get away from each other immediately.

Got a Void Scout Rifle. Hell yeah!
Also a sixth Elder Cipher.
Six Elder Ciphers.
Hrm.

Me too.

There are two ways Bungie brings out the adds with bosses: send out a wave when the boss reaches a certain health threshold, and spawn them in constantly. PoE uses the latter, and it should really use the former. For all the grief Omnigul's boss fight gets (which is mostly justified), the ebb and flow of the battle is one of the best things about it. The constant barrage of adds gets wearying, fast, in PoE boss fights.

I had ruled out doing Skolas earlier, as I knew it would get adjusted at some point. They're changing it right along the lines of what I had hoped for. Sounds like it will actually be fun! :D

Lol I fell off the back of the arena like that last night. Sunbro got the last laugh tho
We should make a list of the people who beat Skolas the first week pre-nerf. Like the Guardian Lord list, but cooler.
First week aint squat tho. It's literally what we have this week. Dat 2nd week with Arc burn tho.
proud to say team WIPE got that done B)

That happened to one of our runs where we had Skolas at 1% health. Stung, but also funny.
The next run we had bad positioning from Skolas and the Servitor so it was a wipe.
The next run was our successful kill.

I'm a bit worried about trials tomorrow....if I was about to do flawless and a gunslinger glitched us... I would probably lose my shit.

I need that helmet though....

Helmet should be easy enough though. No need to worry about flawless.

Okay cool. I tried backing up and thought the door closed but I must have snagged on something

Yeah--the first time it happened to me, I just turned around and ran and bunny-hopped like a Kinderguardian. Enough DPS and he'll move around another corner in the hallway. Use the corners, DPS and kill adds. He'll then teleport into the final room.

Skipped Skolas the first week so today was my first experience with him on Solar burn.

One try. Got him on first freaking try. Solar burn is easy mode, damn. No wonder they're patching it out.

If someone has trouble with this with 3x Horns, you're doing something terrible wrong :p We placed our bubble on the left side, but not where I was used to. For the past two weeks I've placed bubbles right in front of the door where enemies spawn on the left. We went up the stairs and placed the bubble up there. Gjallarhorns, reload and synth inside bubble. First mine spawned, one guy ran to get it. By the time he was there, Skolas was dead.

This is the first and maybe last week I'll do it 3x. Also, got Lord of Wolves and my god this thing is fun in PvE.
 
Unless Xur magically sells Gjallarhorn tomorrow, I dont think I'll be able to do Nightfall this week. Bummer :(
I'm sure someone will help you. Myself included. I think I've already run the nightfall 7 times this week, haha.
i'll do a black hammer run but don't much care for anything from hard mode.
Yeah I'm dying for black hammer, so I would love to do a normal run if we can get the people for it, or if someone just has a Deathsinger or Crota checkpoint.

I'm in CUCO, can't talk on mic for a bit but I'm very familiar with the strike and will use good weapons and such.

If you are going to be doing it again anytime soon I'm game if you need a team.

The first group I ran it with we had a lot of trouble because Skolas just kept getting too close. What's funny is when we changed or strategy it only took one try. Second group I ran with it took 3 tries and we also had the bubble up the ramp instead of in front of the door. In a way I'm glad that first run took so damn long because it got me VERY familiar with the encounter. The week before I didn't learn shit because void burn was so damn quick and easy. It only took one try.
