I did the raid with a couple groups of randos from LTG and wow did it make me appreciate the from here I did it with my first time. Everything was smooth until Oryx, at that point I messed up a couple times by not killing my Ogre fast enough and not getting on my platform quick enough once (though I really don't think that was my fault since the next guy got on his platform before I called mine), and another guy didn't do anything to wipe us but just kept dying. At one point he died right before getting into the invincibility bubble and one of the others swore for like half a minute and left, and then the rest of them basically said "Welp, guess that's a night." They all seemed to know each other, guess they didn't want to finish without their friend.
I got into another group, one person had never done Oryx before. It took like ten attempts to stagger him with people trying different weapons and us having to convince the new guy that a sniper rifle or machine gun is more helpful on Oryx than a rocket launcher, even if switching drops his light level a little. We slowly got better, wiping twice on our second Echo was pretty painful but in the end everyone stayed until we got it.
I volunteered to be runner, on the plus side I can do that pretty quick now.
I got the raid scout rifle, I'm not sure if I want to use it or get the vendor Hung Jury and use the raid rifle and handcannon to get it up to a decent light level.
