Did some fun retro raid challenges last night. Started off with Crota then doing VoG. and we all equipped our highest light gear. Everyone was 335. The rules were simple.
1. No changing subclasses at any point in any raid.
2. No changing perks on armour, weapons or subclass.
3. Whatever item drops you must equip if it is lower light than what you went in with
4. No levelling up gear with motes
5. No cheese
The aim was to be the person who had the lowest light. Which I ended up winning. I managed to get down to 169!
From Crota I had the pulse, scout, arms and legs drop. From VoG I had sniper, hmg, helmet, chest and class item. Even slightly overlevelled the raids become tricky without good loadouts.
Highlights include a blinking warlock trying to do jump puzzles.
Someone getting the VoG fusion rifle and then being unable to do much in the way of damage to anyone at range.
2x Fatebringers dropped! 1x ghorn dropped.
All in all it was a fun run. Even if we massively scrubbed parts of the raids up due to not running them in ages.
