Bungie just sent a raid email.

 

[Sullichin]

Man everyone's getting 3000x exotic engrams from the lame 3oC exploit or raiding. And I'm getting nothing in strike playlists besides a dupe alpha lupi for titan when i'm playing as a hunter, in between my game crashing constantly.

 

[flkraven]

Sounds good yall. Let's keep each other in mind / updated so we can possibly blind raid together. Rarbusto and LT wood might be in the same boat. Although they might have raid groups setup, not sure exactly.

I'll probably be 290ish this weekend but no idea when I'll try the raid. It's killing me!

 

[Rahvar]

Im 266. Anyone want to run some strikes?
Psn thaennon

 

[freefirefreefall]

Just got home so i'm looking for a raid group if anyone has a spot open that would be great.

Look above!

 

[R0ckman]

So they didn't do a hot patch for the farming when putting out the raid?

 

[giancarlo123x]

I can help. Add me. PSN is Darknyss

Edit: Looks like you got matched up.

Dammit. I'll invite you if they rage quit.

 

[noomi]

I should not read the thread... trying to go blind.

 

[BroodShadow]

Look above!

Cool if you still have room send me a inv i'm light 293

Okay so for future reference, and again this isn't final, here's a group for sometime next weekend:

1. TheWorthyEdge
2. Xplicitone
3. Coy
4. TacticalFailure
5. Baliis
6. -------

I have a friend that would probably do it blindly as well, so I'll just put a dash for now.

 

[Ryck]

So for this Scourge of winter cheese, does the difficulty of the mission matter?

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

I can do it. Lvl 291 nightstalker.
Psn is Slammin_hammon

I'd be down for it depending on when you wanna run

People have been saying no.

 

[vctor182]

I think it will take some time to patch this since it's not a glitch

Life is pain.

oh it's true, it's damn true

OMG THIS SHIP SEQUENCE IS AWESOME

 

[Kyne]

So they didn't do a hot patch for the farming when putting out the raid?

guess not..

and there's no way they'll reboot the servers during the first 24 hours of the raid.

or maybe there is.

shut up I want to go home and farm.

 

[Marvel]

What is it? 290?

That's what I've been told ;_;

 

[Darknyss09]

Dammit. I'll invite you if they rage quit.

lol no worries. Was going to try to sneak in a quick strike toward the faction quest.

 

[Rahvar]

What is the scourge of winter cheese?

 

[Ganhyun]

Spoiler

KxoZ is through the first part (the statues)

 

[Jinjo]

K, i'll be farming Relic Iron while you guys go off raiding cause I'm too cheap to use marks for relic iron now.

 

[noomi]

Dismantled my year 1 hawkmoon in replacement of the year 2 hawkmoon

*tear*

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

how'd they get through the statues?

At work so I can't watch streams.

 

[Marvel]

Fastest way to get to 290?

Yeah, so far from what I've seen raid looks pretty sweet...

Spoiler

Polish off those jumping skills...

Spoiler

Need two relics, dunk at statue at same time, relics spawn in a different location downstairs and to the left and right, shoot the barriers to bring them down. Can't take too long or you have to re-do the last statue. Rinse and repeat for all 6 statues.,

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Dismantled my year 1 hawkmoon in replacement of the year 2 hawkmoon

*tear*

Wait, do you HAVE to dismantle a year one exotic to make a year two from the blueprints?

 

[flkraven]

re: Raid

Spoiler

The beginning part? The had to simultaneously slam the relics into the statue. All 6 statues need to be activated, 2 relics each.

 

[Sesuadra]

Just delete it. You already got rep.

Nope. If you're done just shard it unless you want to keep using it.

thank you!

 

[HawksWinStanley]

What is the scourge of winter cheese?

Apparently Xur is selling a consumable that ups the chances of getting an exotic engram when killing an ultra. So I guess people are buying mass amounts of them and then playing certain missions that allow you to respawn near an ultra after you die.

I obviously haven't done it yet so I don't have any better specifics for you. Just how it was vaguely explained to me.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

So for this Scourge of winter cheese, does the difficulty of the mission matter?

No. I did it on level 14 easy. Ended up with 8 exotics on 42 strange coins (which is 30 'three of coins'). 2x Jade Rabbits and 2x Skyburner's Annex though. Still 6 unique year 2 Exotics for those 42 coins. Can't beat that.

Spoiler

there are relics, you have to place two relics in each statue in very close timing to each other. if you take too long it fails. you do this with 6 statues. it opens a portal that you run through.

 

[Bradach]

Life is pain.

lol

Not everyone. Bungie is also working hard on a patch for it

 

[BreakJohn]

YES Zhalo Supercell GET! 150+ 3oC and dozens of exotic engrams later and i can finally call it a day lol.

 

[Robdraggoo]

lol

Not everyone. Bungie is also working hard on a patch for it

of course it is. working stinks.....

 

[Tecnniqe]

Spoiler

Whoa made the ship jumps. So close!

 

[LunaticPuma]

lol

Not everyone. Bungie is also working hard on a patch for it

I doubt that. It seems like it's a limited pool of exotics and a gambling method to get people to use strange coins.

I don't really see a reason to patch anything about it.

 

[Ryck]

No. I did it on level 14 easy.

K thanks here goes!

 

[EroticSushi]

Spoiler

At the second jumping puzzle with all the ships

. Loving it so far.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Did the exploit on easy, too bad I didn't have that many SC. Had like 20 three of coins. But got Hawkmoon, 2x 4th, 2x sealed ahamkara, Invective, Telesto.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Heroic boss again. Slots open until game matches me with someone.
