If you guys need a replacement after X hours and someone has to leave, let me know as well.

You guys are on deck as the replacements for any drop outs. Also if we get lucky with glitches and knock it out quick I will help run it again with any new people that still need it. Okay, maybe that's a little too optimistic right now, but I need to believe...
Yeah Praetorians are the worst but GKeepers have a bad habit of this as well. Definitely seems like lag so I doubt they can do much. Especially in a game that has Post Mortem melee kills, haha.

The whole grimoire systems is terrible. Not only do you have zero access to it, in game, the effects from leveling grimoire are almost un detectable during game play as well. So many times I would be like... uhh I thought I had the resource buff on this planet, why am I only getting one helium over and over. "checks app, looks at grimoire, ye perk unlocked" Ok, what is the point? It needs a huge buff. With the grimoire bonus, every node should be dropping 3-5 and the mega chests should drop 50. In a game rife with unnecessary progress gates to artificially extend "gameplay", the planetary mats farming is the worst. It makes the loot cave seem like a blockbuster action movie.

Hey guys, trying to get a group together to beat Atheon on hard mode today @ 3:30PM EST. Last chance before reset!
Here's the reddit thread ( http://www.reddit.com/r/Fireteams/comments/2l5k7s/ps4_vog_hard_mode_atheon_checkpoint_330pm_est/ ) , or just let me know here if you are interested in coming and I'll add you. Will take one more level 29, but will need at least two more 30's just to be safe. Experience with the shield prefered please.

Cool, let deathjr in before me since its at a much later time for him. Hope for the best and expect the worst
No problem! Glad to help. Just caught me at a good time before I left for school.

Man, my poor friends lol. I think they're going to murder me if RNGesus continues to bless me the way he has.
The two Nightfalls we've done, I got The Last Word from one and The Dire Skull of Ahamkara from the other. Last night, while running Tiger Strikes for exotic bounties (plural, which is also irritating for the guy who has had only one), I got Patience and Time as a post-strike reward. I wanted it but didn't have enough strange coins after buying Voidfang Vestments, and had resigned to not getting it.
My friends spent their coins getting it, and one had to play a bunch of strikes to grind out a couple coins he needed.
Praise RNGesus and his invisible dice rolls. [T]/
Now I just need to figure out what's next. I'm almost 28 with a maxed exotic, but don't want to waste ass shards on armor I'll be replacing to get there. Should I start looking at running raids?

Yeah as long as you have decent weapons go ahead and run normal raids.
I despise the ones where only two people are teleported, or even better, people who are teleported get detained.
Or splash damage through the shield.
Or the effect of the -ammo bug every time we spawn.
In short, it feels like Bungie got away with a lot of bugs when we could (easily) push Atheon off. People should've been raising hell a month ago instead of "Omg best experience ever in FPS".
Especially the WoW vets.
It's easily the best mode. Of course we can't play it all the time.
****
If I was DeeJ, to be a dick, my next Legend player spotlight would be the dude who has the most Atheon kills game wide.
Run a couple Normal raids until you feel like you've got the hang of all the mechanics. Then use some shards to get to 29 (you should hopefully some raid gear by then) and start doing Hard mode.

Anyone else?
The teleport/relic glitches are my main problems. The regain health problem is definitely a lag issue. It seems random and way less common so it's not too much of a deal.
I just want them to fix the teleporting back to three people so we're able to have a chance. Just fix the code for that as a priority. I can still deal with the rest.

hard mode? I went through 5 failed groups yesterday :*(
yep, hard mode, 3 lvl 30s and 3 29s
I went through a few groups with lacking communication before though

I did the raid for the first time yesterday with a group of local players.
We broke our teeth on Atheon as half of the group didn't have decent weapons.
Tomorrow the raid resets and we can't get the group together again.
Would any of you be interested in helping me kill atheon on normal?
It's such as game to let this opportunity go to waste.

i'de love a group that can rush that last fight a bit as we spent over three hours on it yesterday, lol.

know there are some ridiculous pvpers on GAF
feel like these are solid rumble stats but get the feeling they'll get put to shame by a few of you
anyone? is there a crucible only thread or something? - Feel like these isnt much pvp discussion in here

I think we should make an official GAF list o' bugs to forward as a bug report. Maybe with a little discussion and some video proof, we can get a really solid argument for them to at least fix the worst offenders.
What do you guys think? I really do think they listen, but maybe we just need a solid doable list of demands.

Is there anything stopping me from playing to the boss of the Weekly 28 and then inviting my friend's level 11 alt in to get some free coins? I know you can do this with similar levels, but is there anything stopping someone really low level from joining?

Hey thanks for that, I was thinking if you're online we could get some other players together and get one or two practice runs down to see how we go.
Or if anyone needs to do the raid and is short on players, we can help them. Either way, more practice for us.

Currently running on 3 hrs of sleep at work. We had a good run on Hard mode last night, but when we got to Atheon, the bugs were the real MVP.
Hopefully we can knock it out tonight before the reset.
Loot wise, got my 2nd Fatebringer (energies) and Corrective Measure. Still looking for some boots #Forever29

There is a min level requirement. So no he can't.

Do you know what the minimum level requirement is? And is it for starting or for joining?

sorry to say but i don't think many care as the PvP is broken like BF4(melee post mortems anyone?) and not really worth getting into beyond grinding out a few bounties. If the end of round rewards would be given out for performance there would be more incentive in doing good.

So does everyone get Fatebringer after beating the Templar on hard or is it just a possibility?

RNGesus must bless you.
It's random chance...and I haven't gotten it yet.

Crucible is super casual, broken as hell, "fun" that you grind for bounty XP.
It's so laggy most of the time that hit detection is utterly broken, constant kill trades, getting killed by player that just lost his arm and head to your shotgun slug etc. Hard to take something like that seriously or go for good stats.
Lets talk when game stops being shit and actually matchmakes you with people from same continent/region which then gives you lower latency and less shitty experience.
My 16-19 hard templar kills without fatebringer are sad

A very LOW possibility. I've cleared him numerous times and havent gotten it once. Only just saw two people get it in my group this weekend.

Its a dice roll, i've seen 1 player getting it in about 3 or 4 runs. But the Templar on Heroic is the only who can drop it I think.
noomi

Drops off Templar in hard mode only, it's an amazing handcannon, probably one of the best in the game. Surprised it's not an exotic actually.
Seen it drop two other times.
It's not a hard fight. The only thing that causes it to be hard are the glitches / bugs that got a pass when people could cheese him because "lol he fell off".
I honestly think they know all of the glitches. I do believe them when they say they play. The developers / DeeJ I mean, not QA
.I never got it. RNG

In my experience even Mythoclast drops more frequent. I think I saw it dropping in 3 Raids (one for yours truly).
2 out of 6 in one weekend is kinda a lot :b
