Keep your eyes peeled for sign-ups for the next newbie raid! Will either be Thursday evening or Saturday afternoon EST.
Will it be in this thread??
Yup, I'll post a link to a sign-up form. Most likely tomorrow, wednesday at the latest.

Managed to beat The Wretched Eye strike on heroic, despite of the void burn, and it was worth it. I got 384 level Fr0st-EE5 exotic leg armor with ToC from it. The perk, "Tighter turn radius while sprinting. Increased grenade and melee regeneration while sprinting.", seems interesting, but might take some time to get used to. I haven't had the time to test it in battleground yet, but I was running to walls in the tower while sprinting. =D
Thank you!

They "were" bugged... but i "think" they were fixed. They didn't actually increase your nade/melee cool-downs before. I'm sure someone else more knowledgeable will know for sure.
What armor is the armor I saw in the videos with the flames inside of it?
oh man...can I pay to get priority seating for the Saturday afternoon raid?

Hopefully that's fixed.

I watched this guide before the raid and it explains well the mechanics for normal bosses in WOTM. Nothing is super complicated but obviously not knowing the mechanics will wipe any group.

Yeah they're fixed now. Cuts your cooldowns in half, so about 12 seconds of sprinting gets you a grenade charge at T5 Dis. Very good exotic, if a bit ugly.

Days of Iron armor from the RoI record book with the ornament slot active.
I watched the achievement hunter walkthrough afterwards so I wouldn't be a hinderance anymore and i think I understand most of it now. I just got back into destiny about two weeks before ROI and the only raid experience I have was a failed VoG when it first came out.

that's the Rise of Iron book armor. you have to apply the ornaments to them.
edit: beaten.

If they do I've never seen it, only weapons and class items.

I haven't either. it's only been weapons and class items and I did four weekly bounties this week.
Trials is supposed to drop an armor piece on your fifth win on the card.

New pins and emblem and other stuff at the bungie store.
LOL @ RNG pins.

If you miss Hawkians raid, or aren't available for it, shoot me a friend request. I'm with a good group of guys who will be happy to help you through. Weekends are usually the easiest, but we might be able to squeeze in a run throughout the week depending on who all is online.
My PSN is the same as my GAF name. I'm usually free after 9 CST, hopefully that doesn't conflict with your play schedule.
For Vosik's DPS phase, 3 more bombs drop.
Is the best way to go about this part
1) Throw all 3 at one time (would it do substantially more damage vs 1 at a time)
2) Have the boss already tethered (Does it stack w/ the 3 bombs going off?)
Certain groups I've downed Vosik in 3 phases, and I've had a first timer group recently go to 5 so I'm wondering if those bombs are the major contribution of DPS

Good to hear. Thanks.
You're right about the looks, and unfortunately that goes for pretty much all Hunter exotics, aside from Celestial Nighthawk. Too bad I like Nightstalker sub-class more. I've mostly kept on using mixed legendary gear that please my eyes, despite of better gear being available, a bit like its with fashion Souls.
Here's a bit old capture, with a mix of Dream-Eater, Raku Poltergeist, Endling, and Neuroghast gear:
FR sent. Perfect for my schedule

Mind if I send you a request as well? Been through it once but I'm trying to get more experience if you ever happen to have a Normal slot open. (PSN: Appletz). 383 light Titan atm.
So that's why you wanted to play trials yesterday.
RNG pins gave me a great laugh, but I ended up buying a couple...
As such I have an EXTRA Resurrectionist emblem to give away.

Holy shit those are some expensive pins.
I have been completely out of it with Destiny this past week. What have I missed out on? I know hard mode released and LL increased. I was able to sneak in some time and leveled up from 375 to 383 in 2 hours which is extremely nice. Other than the festival, anything big coming up this week?

lol. the great draught of chest armor is making me do crazy things.
But no, I actually have more selfish reasons than that... I wanna get that record book done asap before I stop playing the game. It's the only thing left besides Hard mode story missions.

I took the cheapest emblem route and bought the mask pdf, though now I kinda wish I had ordered the Iron Lord pin instead.
At least now you get the emblem code right away and don't have to wait for the pins to arrive.
If you buy three of them will they at least guarantee that you get all the RNG pins??
ps thanks for the emblem code!
May I join as well? I wouldn't mind playing Forge for a while. Not gonna use my mic yet; I'm listening to podcasts at the moment.
Of course! Come on in

Thanks bungo, game crashed for all three of us at the same time during trials. Card takes a loss...
Kinda weird that they're selling the .pdfs to make your own masks, but I guess that's for people who mainly just want to buy the emblem lol
probably just get 3 sleeper simulants lol
enjoy the emblem!

This past week, my raid team attempted hard mode and got crushed at Visok. My team consists of most people just shy of 380 and two people over 385. My char is at 388 and the other is in the 390s. I was wondering how I could get myself and my team up to 390. I was thinking of doing strikes and the weekly crucible bounty. Any tips?

If the Iron Lords pin would have been the only new one, I'd most probably bought it since I have the other two. But now theres a gazillion new ones, expensive packs, and RNG... Too much all at once for me.
