Was fixed in last weeks hot fix actually
I was talking about hard tooI agree portals are easy once you've found a good routine, outside is easy from the get go as long as you sit people in the right places (sit one guy above each portal for MUCH better line of sight on supplicants. Last guy stands on whichever pillar to open portal and clears up any supplicants that slip through (if any). Can be done easily by 29s
when you put it like that it makes sense. whenever i've been on defense i've never been in a place where harpies could explode on me (usually way on top of some column somewhere), but i still feel more threatened than when i'm in the portal
we'll see how it goes. i'd be lying if i wasn't tired of being "on the portal team". defense is more interesting IMO, but portal guys need to be in sync.
again, it's not so much the randomness i take issue in, but rather in the sudden change and the way bungie's gone about it. it's been known since the first few days the raid came out that it teleported the 3 furthest people, but in the updates since we've heard nothing about it until recently, coincidentally right when the cheese methods popped up.
Because ummm everything was Bungie?

One hit melee kill from the enemies due to Lightswitch. So you're probably going to want some backup in case for the Nightfall atleast. Weekly should be easier, possible soloable.
Arc burn
As a Warlock that's my weakness! Barely even have Arc weapons.Nightfall has kick to orbit, so use weekly to test strategies before attempting nightfall.
In theory, anyway. In practice every goes straight into
cheesing
I think the logic behind it is that the weekly is supposed to be a training ground before trying the nightfall.
Good, a challenge.
You need backup, even as a level 30 I'm not going to attempt this one alone.
All I have is Arc Queen Sniper and Found Verdict too lol.

Seems like the hotfix is not release yet.
Maybe, though I felt last week's Weekly was more of a challenge than the Nightfall. My guess is that it's a programming thing that is just easier to do.Nightfall has kick to orbit, so use weekly to test strategies before attempting nightfall.
In theory, anyway. In practice every goes straight intoNightfall for that sweet xp bonus multipliercheesing
Edit: You should always do Nightfall first, btw. That way you maximize reputation for all other activities afterword.
Expect patch to land within next 7 hours. Until that point you have free reign to do last cheeses.
Yeah last weeks modifier was dumb (Void). First nightfall was Sepiks with arc burn. THAT was brutal.
I'll probably attempt this weeks solo cheesey style. If I have time to find a group the non cheese method shouldn't be unreasonably hard.

The one time I wish I could equip two exotic weapons at the same time

Arc burn...
My Thunderlord and Patience and Time are ready.
I wish I had Fatebringer.
Same here
Shame you can't use both. I do have the arc raid pulse rifle though. Yet to put it to use.

eww, i don't have good arc weapons.
well, i have fatebringer, an arc sniper with armor piercing rounds, an a rare arc machine gun, but they're nowhere near as potent as my solar or void weapons.
so, how difficult will this be to solo?
really? i guess i'm covered then.
feel the burn, shrek.

Man sprinting enemies can be so hard to shoot. I think that's part of the reason combat is so chaotic compared to old halo. Everyone moving so fast and blinking around. Blade dancers almost look visually broken as they dart around instantly
Combine that with lag and easy postmortem kills, sprint shotgun tactics can still be really hard to stop. Easy trades almost every time.
Edit: talking about crucible

I forgot I have Thunderlord!
Need more? I can bring Thunderlord and a 29 hunter or 27 Titan

Can you cheese the boss in THE SUMMONING PITS?
How?

What's the best cheese spot for the boss? Entry room or all the way left behind the rocks?
Was fixed in last weeks hot fix actually
I was talking about hard too
Really? Meaning, there are no two same ships with different names anymore? If that's true, the difference between my two must be miniscule.

You can do it, Nami.
Entry room. Just back up (but not too far) to avoid the Shrieker. Left rocks = death. Stay back near the entrance for the 3 waves with Dinklebot, as well.

Add me: JinjoNL if there is still room.
It is lol. They made the yellow stripes white on the rare one hahahaha.

you and nami want to do the weekly after?
Not at the same time sure, but juggling weapons ain't no thing. I'm sure I'll be using Ice Breaker to replenish Patience and Time's ammo on the way to Phogoth, but once I'm there I'll be switching out for Thunderlord, use a heavy ammo synthesis, drop a Weapons of Light bubble, and then go to work.
