This will easily be the SPOOKIEST Trials of Osiris ever.
TRIALS HYPE???

You have soothe and massage a Captain to keep him from throwing a tantrum. That has to be done throughout the encounter until the Warpope blesses you.

That weekly update tells me that hm raid will have additional mechanics instead of just more/tougher enemies. I'm looking forward to it...

Pumpkin heads coming back. Only thing is it makes your playing skill worse--I can't wait to crush people wearing it.
Indeed, should be fun!

The Taken Captain will be the new mechanic.
Everyone is assigned a Captain in the beginning of the raid. Together they must conquer each challenge ahead of them, jump the ships, do the relay race together, and eventually face Oryx where your Taken Captain will be killed by Oryx and become a part of you.
You will become the Taken Captain.

Only thing shocking about that Stormcaller 7th Column is the guy that obviously got spawn killed and the super lasting 10 years.

In the HM raid would you rather be 309 with the sword or 308 with the raid MG?
You'll become a Taken Captain and invade another group's raid just to rain hell upon them. You also get to dual wield 330 gjallys.

Yo, what class are you bringing tomorrow? What Light level?
A/S/L?
Right now we've got 2 Titans, a Warlock and a Hunter. I can be 309 as either Titan or Hunter. I should probably be Hunter for dem tethers.
Only place I ever found the MG useful was for like Ogres on Oryx in an emergency if I ran out of ammo but that's rare.
308 with MG. That way I can use Black Spindle or ToM.

A 307 Titan~.
I can make him higher through stealing my other characters gear and...destroying them if I so wished.

really? i find it useful everywhere
when i run out of spindle ammo i use it on war priest and golgoroth and switch back and forth with primary to activate the cocoon
also good when teleported during oryx and general add maintenance

Wow. I thought I got really lucky to get two exotic engrams in a row, but 4 out of 6 now. Sardok, you're too kind.

Which difficulty did you select?

I prefer it for two reasons. You won't ever lose the checkpoint and you don't have to make sure you have heavy ammo.
Easy.
This should have been the Oryx music that plays. Fits perfectly in my opinion.

The problem is that it is taking them waaaaaay too long to address issues, at this point I 100% believe the Kotaku story when it talks about their tools being garbage. There were extremely comprehensive writeups on how and why the Crucible questline was way too long and it should count completed matches instead of wins within two weeks of TTK launch. Now they're talking about addressing it by Thanksgiving "if all goes well"? That's about two months depending which is an embarrassing turnaround. Just like the Iron Banner drops being garbage turned out to be a bug, which also has been affecting the Crucible in general all along, and they'll share final details on the fix once it's locked down? And none of this is even touching on other bugs/glitches like the Firefly causing games to crash, scopes on the Black Spindle etc etc.
Bungie clearly listens, but their acknowledgement and then turnaround on addressing said issues is completely fucking awful almost all of the time. I'm not trying to dump on their engineers or imply a lot of this stuff is a super quick and easy fix or anything, but I can't recall any other console game or studio taking nearly the time it's taken Bungie to fix glaring issues (technical or otherwise) with a AAA game like this. Super disappointing.
I'll be experiencing salt while at work not being able to play.

Is this in shrine of oryx or just the glitch in spot for the ultra knight on the dread?
brianjones

do you just go to orbit and straight back?
I need more details. Which mission? Which checkpoint? How do you go about not losing said checkpoint?
^ the mission doesn't end when sardok dies.
Do you wait ten minutes in between each engram drop?

Any groups need someone for Hard mode tomorrow? I have a 308 Warlock I'm going to be bringing.

I can only imagine, the exotic weapon that may dop from completing HM raid will be a 330 Gally, just imagine! Believeeeeee
Shrine of OryxI need more details. Which mission? Which checkpoint? How do you go about not losing said checkpoint?
Make it to the end, kill Sardok, and head back to orbit. Mission doesn't end till you destroy the shrine so you can just spawn in, kill Sardok, and leave without losing the checkpoint as long as you don't destroy the shrine.

Pick up exotic engram, or no? Will sending it to the post master not count as picking one up, like Draksis?
RickyRozay
Member
Anyone running a quick kf raid?
But there is still a cool down right?
I pick mines up.
Yep. I wait ten minutes between kills.
As soon as I kill Sardok, I pop a ToC and wait ten minutes before killing him again. Works for me that way.

I like this better.
The actual Shrine of Oryx mission. Sardok.
Nah, leave it for like 5-10 mins. I'm just doing it when I remember while I do other things.

Shrine of Oryx. The very last checkpoint. Kill Sardok (the big Knight) and leave before destroying the shrine. You'll start again down the hall. Repeat whenever you like.

I was doing him before the nerf. Haven't bothered 3oC farming or buying any more 3oC since then because of a combination of the economy nerf, already having nearly all of the exotics and my personal success rate of getting 310 exotics from engrams being total horseshit and not worth it >_>.
I found it preferable to Draksis though because you don't lose the checkpoint since the mission doesn't end until you shoot the orb which is something you can't do on accident, and it doesn't require you to have heavy ammo. I was also terrible at suiciding myself on Draksis which is obviously on me, but makes Sardok much safer as a result.
Ah I see, still a wait.
Ah yes, that can work perfectly as well. BB soundtrack is so underrated I think.

I've picked up all the exotic engrams so far and got 4 engrams from 7 3oC. I really don't think letting the go to the postmaster does anything. You're not tricking the game.

Scratch that, make it 5 from 8. Wtf.
