*** Destiny Raid & PvP discussion thread ***

If you can't get another 32 I will put my name in the hat. 31 Hunter or Warlock 331 Mida, Black Hammer and Hezen Vengeance or One Way Ticket. Hopefully won't hold you guys up.

I'm around if you can make do with a 31 Titan?

Gord's got a game running too, if his team is happy for a level 31 and has a Titan in his pack, we'll take Schnippz and Parrot to Gord's? Our strat works best in final fight with a Titan but not a must.

Otherwise, we'll have

Parrot (as he replied first) and Schnippz on reserve?

edit: It's thor's list, so he should make the ultimate decision :p

Sounds like a plan, I'll be online just ping me a message/invite.

This will be an easy going affair with only a wiff of cheese if we start to struggle. I'm happy to give Sword carrier a go but please bare in mind I have never done it before. :eek:

Never done CE before apart from soloing the lamps with my hunter. Any space for a lvl 31? I've watched the encounter and read the strats many times so not going in blind. Cheers.

I was running the strat we used last week yesterday with Gord's team and we actually did ok without the bubble protection so we should be ok without a titan.
We unfortunately ran into a couple of disappearing swords last night that stopped us from completing Crota.

Gord was the only titan yesterday and he had the sword so was using his bubble to chill out by Crota which was why we did not have one. It didn't work out that different to having an invis hunter still got enough damage in to down Crota in the three swords.
 
Pro-tip for hard mode, get the Titan to drop their bubble where the blue circle is below.

Do this just before the swordbearer starts his run, that way the bubble draws the aggro from the boomers, leaving the swordbearer to deal with crota normally. The Titan can still pop out the left side of the bubble to DPS, and the team can run through the bubble on the way to the right Ogre room to gain an over shield.

A Titan would be nice, so if Schnippzle fancies it and promises not to die, I'm happy to go with that. :)

I've just about got a 31 Titan now myself (just need some more plasteel plating) but I'd much rather be on sword duty.

Titan defender 31 (psn redrooster303) here up for CE normal but I've still not managed to do it yet. Let me know if you need me to help.

If we have a spot free why not jump on the Hard Mode tonight.. with the strategy above its not too bad tbh.

Do you have any decent 331 weapons? Blessing of light bubble?

Sorry guys, looks like we'll just be focusing Crota tonight and not doing a full run. Parrot you're welcome to join us for this if you want to, just let me know.

I'm just waiting on a last confirmation (which sounds more like a no) but otherwise the space is yours. I will add you to my friends list tonight (feel free to add me in the meantime, ID in sig).

I think most of us will be running as 31's. Shouldn't be a big issue TBH. Barring bugs normal mode is much more straight forward than hard.

What class are you?

There are various strategies to use on Crota so we can flex depending on what our lineup looks like. Piphal/Mach are titans so we will have the bubbles covered. We will just need to make sure they get enough orbs from the rest of us (hunters gunslinger seems pretty good in the Crota spawn room).

Excellent much appreciated. I'm a 31 hunter and comfortable with Blade Dancer and gunslinger and will switch as appropriate. I'll add you Tonight and I'll wait to see if there is a space :)
 
If you need help with the raid or just killing Crota - send me a message. Myself and Venom alternate the sword for our team - seems to work a treat and no issue with 3 downs.

Only played around with the Necrochasm for a short while but the thrall perk seems to proc about 75% of the time. The AoE damage is quite good - it kills other nearby thrall in one explosion. It'll certainly come in handy in the abyss. If Bungie increased the impact by 10-20% and the magazine size by 10 or so, this gun will be unreal.

That's kind mate. I'm on Xbox One though! I think I'll be fine for doing it at some point soon I just haven't had much time to attempt it! I have the cp now anyway!
 
Also I have the Gorgon's Maze exotic chest Hard cp if anyone wants to pick up a free exotic on their alt chars? [Xbone]. Just drop me a line.
 
Would like to give raids a go if anyone on PS4 is up for welcoming a new addition

Level 31 Titan (defender class not maxed out [yet])

My current maxed weapons:
- Hard Light auto rifle
- Gjallarhorn
- Up For Anything auto rifle
- Valedictorian 9-44 (void rocket launcher)

Also have Ice Breaker at 302 damage (next on the list to max)

I thought you weren't around for a couple of weeks?? Did you not fancy jumping on the HM Crota tonight?
 
You can update me to lvl 32! :p got me a black hammer and a second patience and time. Is that for pvp i never used it so far leveling up icebreaker so far.
Ideally have 'Horn for the bit with Crota with BH and your preferred primary. p&T is a good weapon but can't think of a specific role in CE raid other than it good to solo the abyss with it
Poly put me down for friday Hard mode at 8:00pm please (32 Titan). Can I suggest we get another titan so we can do the side room strategy ?
Done :) - I've learnt a new strat where everyone (bar 1) can stay on the middle platform if you don't move while one goes in to attract Crotas attention. Means youll get the swordbearer down quicker the second run...
