Why are people having problems doing CM? The fight is arguably easier if you do CM imo.

Yeah, it's the teleporting Ogres/Bombs. It's still possible to recover if you let the bomb get eaten, but all that is happening exactly when Oryx runs his stagger check and it's tricky.
Also I've been convinced of Daughter Platform roaming DPS superiority. It's much safer to kill the Ogres from up there and then drop down when the brand arrives.

The key to preventing the Ogres from teleporting is overwhelming DPS. If everyone kicks in DPS then hits their respective knight it should be no problem. One of my attempts had a group of bombs get eaten (bad adapting on my part) and we still completed it on the first try with 5. When everyone is running high light level weapons the Ogres simply don't stand a chance.

Ogres must die before they even consider taking a step.

Teleporting ogres and blight.

I did CM ~8 times this week and didn't see a single ogre/blight teleport.

Why do people have trouble with Oryx? Sometimes Epic Scrub Sax must be played.

The one thing about CM is that it can create the teleporting Orge/blight glitch which can really screw you over and is very unfortunate.

Isn't the fight the same with the optional CM? Wonder why people are having problems with teleporting ogres/bombs now, if supposedly there should be no changes on the fight.

Neither did I, but it's happening. There are videos on YT in addition to all the comments from GAFers seeing that glitch, especially in the fourth cycle.

At it takes is one person doing something dumb. Walking right up the shade dome of death, waiting too long to head to the aura trying to take out Knights, clear ads, etc. we almost had it first try tonight but it ended up taking over an hour. Thanks so much for helping out Doc. Especially enjoyed doing the
heavy ammo glitch at Crota for old times sake.

Thanks to T-44, Dorssum, Lnkn, and tick as well!

Hiding, if you can get back on post, otherwise need another Titan for challenge mode on PS4

I'm seem to be having some issues logging back online. I won't be offended if you start looking for someone while I try and resolve the problem...

The key to preventing the Ogres from teleporting is overwhelming DPS.

I feel like this is the case, though I can't say for certain since I've never been a part of a run with a teleporting Ogre. I'm sure it feels cheap, but if it's a sort of hidden constraint, then people will just need to work with that additional rule in mind. Assuming it's consistent, I don't think it would be fair to claim the game is glitching. For instance, you can kill an enemy with the brand at Warpriest after the game has decided you were too late. It feels cheap, but it's the way the game works. If a problem can be controlled by the players doing more DPS, then I would think this is much ado about very little.

Ogres was fucking up hard when I played.

Remember to look up the thing.

The fight itself is the same but the CM-required strat is not. Forcing players to stack the blights creates the teleportation glitch. If you have a few blights already stacked up, you have to kill the next Ogres quickly or else they can be teleported. Essentially the game can't find space for them since the other blights are already there so they end up teleporting usually towards the center of the map.

37 OT's late, I must say: This game is way better than I anticipated. Glad I went for it for 30 bucks.

 

[Kadey]

People aren't executing either. They know exactly what they should do but for some reason they get sidetracked. There are a lot of things going on at once and it's not easy for people to adjust to fast reactions. Plus the more you play with people, the easier it is to do things. Playing with different people will require getting use to timings with them.

 

[TalentBurke]

Anybody doing Oryx challenge mode?

 

[xplicitone]

Hey xplicit any chance you can jump on the xbox around 9:30 est tonight? We have an Aethon checkpoint for NTTE

Hey sorry ice, I was at the theatre and didn't check my phone to avoid spoilers and just saw this now.

Y'all get it done?

 

[Unstable]

Star Wars is good. Destiny remains dad. All is right with the world.

But you're right on time for OT38! Welcome to DGAF and glad to hear you're enjoying the game!

 

[Kadey]

Two runs and nothing from raid. I have no shame in getting crazy drops from SRL and IB.

Anyone want to start a crucible train?

[Sentinalprimus]

The moment of happiness when Oryx drops a Helm, but it's only 316

Edit: 320 Doom with Full Auto is nice though.

 

[Unstable]

Hehe. Took my Dad & Aunt. Keeping with the theme of Star Wars with family and all that. Back in the day my Dad lined up to see the original when he was a kid, full circle!

Bungie needs to do some server maintenance. The game has been exceptionally buggy recently.

Saw The Force Awakens last night.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Biutiful! ;_;

The way you wrote that almost makes me feel sorry for the Ogres... almost lol.

 

[mehrmantrout]

Talk about a bummer going back to Control, Clash was better and quicker.

Also the shotgun will become the new meta it can roll with slightly more range than the Conspiracy Theory and has a better RoF than the Party Crasher http://db.planetdestiny.com/items/view/1272989272 So i'll have to suffer it till Rank 5

 

[AngerdX]

Bah, i´m going to miss the challange mode it seems this week, i just can´t get into playing anything atm, about to upgrade the PC and been sifting thru prices and ordering and all that comes with that, hoping to be done by sunday so i might get a chance to finish up before reset, starting 19 days off so got plenty time after heh

Welp

 

[deadduck]

Tried to play with TLW for a few hours last night, its better, not its old self but something is still not clicking with me. Despite trying hipfire only I'm still losing to it and not quite finding its range.

Back to a pulse for trials this weekend.

 

[Duebrithil]

Are we on for Oryx CM tonight or tomorrow, Mandrake?

I started out as a 50 year old and reverse aged to my actual age on subsequent attempts. That was good enough for me.

PS aging sucks.

 

[Namikaze1]

Movie easily exceeded my expectations. Favorite Star Wars since Empire Strikes Back. You did it, J.J. Abrams. Now to rest.

Anyone want to do a quick NF? I finally got my ALT titan up to 283.

Damn, this confirms I'm actually getting old. Did a reaction test about 8 years ago and I was more consistently around 220-240 milliseconds. Now I struggle for a 350. The fastest reaction time a human being can perform is around 180-200 milliseconds iirc, due to limitations of the nervous system.

Not sure why it says Unstabie is not human with a reaction time of 245 milliseconds, as that is still within human ranges.

You need one? I decrypted 2 engrams hoping for an armamentarium and got 2 twilights instead.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Those who haven't seen Star Wars yet, probably stay away from Destiny as well, not just social media.

Just saw one person in tower with a clan tag that spoiled a major plot point in the movie.

Not need, but want lol. Had two chest engrams in one day this weekend. Would have loved an Armamentarium too, but everything decrypted into lupi's man.

Wow, what a douche. Thanks for the headsup. Thankfully (I guess?) I'm at work all day and going immediately after.

Ooof, I feel you man. I wanted a tarantella a few days ago and got another lupi too. I bought my Arma and burnt three 310s to make it a 310 in the end.

For those avoiding Star Wars spoilers. Keep away from the bungie destiny forums. I had a quick look this morning and the trolls are out in force.

When did he last sell armour engrams? It seems like forever, probably one of those "bugs" Edit I should imagine it's deliberate now most people are 310+ got to keep people grinding

Hmm, I'll take the Achlyophage & Hard Light I guess. Can infuse both up to 310'ish immediately anyway.
