I can get like 10-12 hammers out but aiming them is impossible. I'm guessing there's some kind of trick to it or a turbo controller or whatever.
...wat?

Nice haul today: Dark-Drinker, Raze-Lighter, two Black Spindles and the Vienna Singer ship. Thanks to all the people that helped during the day, you're awesome!
I shit you not. I have no clue. I didn't say a thing about it to them either. Instead I took the to the court. AFAIK, they haven't done court since. I think the only time they do court is when I take them, which confuses me.

I heard Skolas goes down in mere seconds now. Though I'm not sure what the point is.
Well, there are also people elsewhere in the GAF sphere that insist they have no method of grouping with people in this game without matchmaking, no matter how many times DGAF people beg them to just post here in community. You can bring a horse to water...
Is there a trophy? I never did finish off Skolas. Maybe I'll put together a kill crew of my irl mates and go dust him, spit on his corpse.

I need to do the void sword as well, but I may need to level up my titan as she is only 291-light x__x. I don't know why I didn't just give all the swords to my hunter x(

I'll help.
It's okay, only 1% of RL friends play this game. No feelings hurt.
they left Taniks? one of the shortest strikes in the game.

Hum.. I have the quest to kill Echtar on an Arc Sword. Cant we do it together? It has to be the same sword?
It's not the exact same animation tho is it?
and more importantly does it make the same sound?!
The sound the Last Word makes is heavenly

Hey the Xbox destiny GAF site was legit. What a nice and good crew last night. I am sorry I had to leave before Golgoroth.
It was such a cool group. Thank you to those who turned me on to it.
When you die, no one yells at you. No one leaves after one failed attempt.
It was a revelation..

There's not even a trophy. The only reason I can see to do PoE now is to get strange coins, but you can do that on lv 28 PoE. I wouldn't waste the energy to do 35.
They saw your 1% Spindle/ToM and figured you could check your privilege with Taviks by yourself.

The group I was with got all three done simultaneously. I finished the two swords I had on me as well. As long as you apply some sort of damage to the knights you need to 'kill' it counts.
5 minutes of CoO tells you that matchmaking is an absolute horrible idea for raids.
is it really that difficult? I have yet to try to get it
Well strike playlist has issues though
People can't exit the playlist until after they see the next randomly chosen strike. That's why people exit
No lobby or required mics to encourage any communication. That's why no one communicates
No way to know what the random players intent is. They may have time for only one, or at risk to leave or whatever. No lobby or communication method to relay this to teammates
They could create a raid specific matchmaking to address these issues pretty easily I think. Bungie just is ok with the communities handling it as of now

It is so odd seeing all the HoW/PoE content on the Reddit weekly update threads too. I took a Destiny break right before HoW launched and only played the HoW content the weekend before TTK just to get that silly triumphs emblem (I also wanted to at least experience PoE as intended before we all over level it with TTK). It was incredibly underwhelming when it was that most recent content and "best weapons." Now with TTK, why on earth would anyone set foot in that arena other than boardem or maybe some quick strange coins? All the gear is 170 tops right? And unless your buddies are some PvP elites where some HoW gear still has some crazy perks for a PvP min/max build, I don't think you need to feel 1% for shaking your head at that. Like...just run vanguard playlists , you don't even need to understand CoO to know that PoE is not where you gear up for TTK. I got more blue and purple engrams in the vanguard playlist last night in 4 strikes than I did in 20 pre-TTK.
Because: if you want to raid (play for hours to finish one long quest that you know is going to take a while/be hard/require teamwork), you can find other like minded people that want to get it done.
If you play the strike playlist and get undying mind 4 out of 5 times and finally rage quit/throw the controller down instead of hopping up those goddamn steps again at the beginning of the strike, it's because you're SICK OF THE SAME STRIKE overandoverandoverandover.
If you matchmake to start a raid, you know what you're in for. If you matchmake for a strike and keep getting the same content overandoverandover, it's friggin boring, man. People quit. I get it.
Yeah, after playing TTK upon returning to Destiny, I can now say matchmaking would be awful for raids in this game.
An in-game LFG tool would be sufficient, but I am convinced matchmaking for raids would be god-awful. I say this after failing a bunch of Tier 3 CoO fights with scrublets.
Tried helping a friend yesterday. Did daily story and PvP, got marks, told him buying the vanguard ghost would bump his light 6 points and was the way to go (his old ghost was 220). Then went to the court to help him finish Eris' quest for the 300 artifact. He wouldn't buy the ghost. He even lied about buying it to shut me up. Then a friend and I carried him through a couple of Heroic strikes where he kept getting wrecked. I want to help people out, but come on!
I still have like 10 treasure keys and I haven't bothered to run the PoE at level 28, just to burn those keys and try for an exotic.

We ran out of time. If we had 1 minute left we'd complete but we get swamped in the last moments. The guy who solo'd it is a god
In 40 minutes I think.

Denial. Denial mostly would seem to be the answer.
Oh, also, "Well, they do it in WoW."
Yeah, well, WoW isn't a high-paced shooter, now is it? Teamwork + Technical prowess needed means you're going nowhere when grouping up with PUGlies for a raid. Nine times in ten.
Which means if Bungie were ever to give in, all those people whinging about no matchmaking would immediately start bitching about the Raids being too hard and start trying to pressure poor Luke Smith and co. to dumb down the raids so PUGs could clear them. And then the cycle begins again with us 1%ers going, "It's fine as is. Leave it alone!"
And the whiners going, "But why should I be left out just because..."

Haha. YUP!
I really feel people who suggest that don't play Destiny and or have never actually done any end game content.

No, you see, people just want the option of having a terrible experience.
