What's the best way to get an artifact?

Higher than 350? Skeleton Key chests.
Nevermind. I was able to find a good cheese spot.
Fears Embrace? There's a cheat if you hide near one of the doors.

Oh wow didn't know that! I've been buying armour engrams from the cryptarch with no luck. Thanks.

Any raid runs will begin soon ? My level is 371 and I don't mind running it with people who did it before.

I love the raid set for the Hunt;er my Hunter looks so badass with the Bittersteel shader equipped. Completing the raid over an hour ago, I like it way better than Kingsfall. The final boss fight really keeps you on your toes.

And the encounter
while it was being built
Here's a clip I recorded with a crazy bladedance multikill during that encounter

strange coins is your friend
I mean I know how to, it's just slow regardless.
And also not everyone has 1000+ strange coins just sitting around
edit: I'll see how it goes but I doubt I'll be ~375 by the end of tomorrow

Last boss spoilers.
*SGA: During the final stage of the Aksis fight, Empowered guardians can super-charge the entire team if they stand on the squares where the Servitors try to go to and hold down X, or Square. We just used this to crush that S.O.B. Easy peezy.*
Cause that changes everything. And I checked the person/ clan that did this. Did complete the raid. And others have chimed in collaborating for this as well. It's a damage boost.

My group is stuck for the past hour at the final boss.. We're all 360-365 and I'm guessing we're being gear checked.
How does this work?

Its really a bummer they didn't have the raid start at 350 and end at 375 (and then HM start at 375 and go to 400), that little gap from 350 to 365 to start the raid is a huge hurdle imo for the non grind lovers. I don't think I'm going to bother with the raid, I'm 352 or so after a few hours of omnigul farming (titan/hunter/warlock) and I don't really enjoy the grind at all.

My group made it to the final boss after a couple hours which surprises me. Usually we have A LOT of unnecessary bleeding when we first go through the raid. Guess we'll start the real bleeding tomorrow when we try to beat the final boss.
Doesn't seem to work.

It does. Ruthless confirmed
Look for a red glow over one of the servitor plates as one of the other empowered guys slams the boss. A notification will pop in the left hand side that says "Guardians are supercharged".
Also, the timing has to be impeccable. Basically all it does is refill super, grenade, and melee. So you can probably tether every round now.

Yes, and Download Complete.

What strike is worth using a key on?
Infuse your Iron Gjallarhorn.
I got an artifact out of the Sepiks chest... Then I tried again and didn't get one. I figure I'll get the strike drops down the road... Right now, I just need an artifact (LL 364, but my artifact is 360).
Unless your target is 385, no.
Exotic engrams, faction packages, and skeleton key chests in strikes.

I don't know but someone was telling me today that there is zero difference from a 370 LL and a 379 LL as far as DPS goes which I assume would hold the same weight in the difference from a 380 and a 380+.
I just know that there is a lot that can wrong in that last encounter but we got it to about 25% left and wiped, I've spent way too much time today in the same place.

371 appears to be the point at which the shanks and captain aren't Red level
my group hit a brick wall there too.. a single death is almost an automatic wipe which sucks considering it's normal not even hard
Grinding faction packages is such crap.. imagine the people that don't have all these materials to trade in
If the mobs level is white to you, then the damage is the same. Light level matters when the mobs are orange and red, otherwise white is max damage.

Any fresh raid runs about to kick ? I don't mind non-blind runs.

Finally beat the raid lol. Final boss took many hours, but we stuck with it and eventually took him out, just as his wipe animation was beginning lol.
Not bad for having mostly <270s in a 280 encounter!
some people are just in a hurry, Destiny 2 is still next year, grinding faction packages are just for hardcore players
