5 hours and 2 raid groups. But the 2nd group (shown in the picture) were way better. But man, these people had some patience. No matter how tense, they just kept pushing and kept encouraging. No one was happy until we landed that final blow. Hell, they were even patient with me when I fucked up by panicking and slipping off the plate on that final round, and we would have had it and hour earlier had I not slipped off.
But we kept at it, kept at it, and kept at it, and just made sure that no matter what mistake we didnt get at each other throat (since we knew damn well we wouldnt find another group that knew EXACTLY what to do).
I got the hand cannon, chest, and rocket launcher.
HC is.. eh... My only issue is the hella slow reload. Still think the FB is better.
I only like the rocket launcher cause its the only Y2 I have with tracking so far, radius is on point, only issue is the low velocity. Even with javelin, its only like 55-60%.
Eris had a new quest looked like a weapon frame leading to an exotic or something
Turn in 50 fucking hadium flakes - we actually went an opened 50 chests
Got an antiquated rune
Eris that's a mean tease
Edit: nvm seems it is a quest that keeps going but requires more calcified things for the next step to show up

Spent the last of my strange coins on a stack of ToC and scored a couple more engrams. Really thought it'd be done by now.
Anyone pick up Hung Jury from Dead Orbit? This thing is fucking beautiful. Has triple tap, firefly and extended mag taking it up to 20 rounds a clip. Also it's in the higher tier of impact for scout rifles and has the added benefit of sounding like you're skeeting at your enemies.
I heartily recommend.

Start the encounter by shooting the goop.
Everyone should be up top somwhere safe so you can kill all the adds. Stormcallers are outstanding for taking out the Acolyte add groups. When all the adds are dead prepare to begin the next phase.
Two people need to manage the Gaze back and forth. Gaze Jugglers. They should be at opposite corners of the arena.
The other 4 are on DPS duty. One person with a hand cannon to take out Thralls is very effective.
The DPS team should start in the corner where the initial Gaze Juggler will start. The other Juggler should shoot Gorgy lightly to draw his attention and make it easier for them. Your Juggler should time his shots so he draws the gaze at the same moment DPS bursts one of the sacs.
When the sac is destroyed and gaze drawn DPS team goes to work. Drop down in the pit and stay down there doing damage until all 6 sacs are done. It's OK to have one person primarily focused on Thralls.
With 5 seconds left on Gaze the other Juggler should do their thing and take the gaze. Once cleared of orbs the Idle Juggler should always be chipping down the next sac so it can be destroyed exactly as the Gaze is transferred. After the 6th gaze pass the idle juggler can jump down to assist the DPS team. When the gaze is about to expire everybody report back to position 1. Clear adds and start anew.
Taken do not spawn the same way so be prepared to start those phases more quickly.
Stormcallers can easily clear taken during the second half of the fight. Taken are probably less dangerous than thralls with proper orb generation and supers.

I really like the encounter.
These public event quests are the worst. No one is ever around to help. Soloing them is tough. Plus there's so many quests that want you to do this. I was soloing taken champion on Mars and he leaves 3 seconds before I was about to finish him off. Then the only other guy on Mars walked down about 15 seconds after he disappeared. I

I'll join you for the Mars in a bit. Need to do that one too. Soloing it is a pain in the ass.

Don't recognize it but if you don't mind me not wearing a mic (cause my ears hurt from Kings Fall) then I'll try to blast through it.
What light level quest is it?

Where exactly is the chest after Golgoroth?

It's only 260 but it's kicking my ass.
I will have enough marks to get a gun tomorrow. I'm having a hard time deciding. I was thinking about the gun your talking about or maybe the crucible Suros pulse rifle. I'm not a big fan of pulse rifles, but I hear that one is cool. I was thinking about the crucible hand cannon as well. I wonder if it's decent.

Sorry, edited it into my other post too late. gt is BobbyRawlins
OK. I just logged off, but I will get back on.
There are three pushers at the first platform you step on to build the path. Staying on that level move back to the are between the first two pushers. Look across and you will see a small ledge on the giant strut leading to the other side of the ship. Jump there. Pull out your ghost and follow the hidden bridges. The hole is above you.

Need 1 person for the raid.
We know how to do it.
We're on Daughter of Oryx.
When doing 2nd jumping puzzle at side of that huge.. wall? with piston, keep popping Ghost out and checking for invisible platforms over nothingness. Then figure route out and check for hole in the wall.
edit: beaten
Are you going for Oryx afterwards?

You're a lifesaver. Or at least a coffee table saver. I was about to break it in half.
I'm not waiting for you if your raiding. I'm gonna log off again. I'm done for the day.

I understand. If my last raid group wasnt as calm as they were i was about to run my controller through a paper shedder. Don't know how, but I'd find a way.

Yeah my bad. Thought I was going to finish up after this part.
I'll do it with you tomorrow.

Question - I'm in dire need of weapon parts. If I dismantle Y1 exotic, I can just re-buy them? I don't know if theres a point in keeping any of them.
So far have had large parts of the Oryx fight, the names of several bosses / checkpoints, and a handful of raid mechanics spoiled in this thread. Seriously people, if you are talking about the raid please spoiler tag your post.
I have to moderate the thread, so I don't want to bail, but I'm also getting way more spoilers than I'd like.
