Ok Midgen & Turbo i'll see who is about around the time then you never know one might drop out which can always happen. Apologies for not waiting for our group to go again I'm just unsure on available time with it being the run up to xmas now.

No worries..not sure I will be on for a few weeks after this weekend, back to the UK for Xmas.

I have clearance for Crota, will log on about 2045...will just need to nab a few heavy ammos as I am neither a hunter nor have an Ice Breaker I guess I'll be on gjallahorn duty

Psycho Sonny · 18 Dec 2014 at 22:05

Been thinking about buying this for XB One. Am I too late to the party and will I struggle to get geared to do the latest stuff?

if you hammer it for a week solid you should hit 20.

then hammer iron banner for a week next time it comes round to hit 31.

it takes 2 solid weeks to hit 31 basically but iron banner only happens every so often.

mid_gen · 18 Dec 2014 at 23:33

Sorry dancula I'm an hour ahead, too late for me. I reckon we were only a couple of runs away. My comms weren't working so I jumped out when I heard your extra guy was back.

RIP Crota

Well in lads

Mr Jones · 19 Dec 2014 at 00:28

I think that last focused attack chained up well! Boom! Death to Croatia!

I think Auty might have the checkpoint on one of his other characters. If you're around during the weekend then jump in

It was a thing of beauty, almost on our first go if you don't count the 50 trial runs, black hammer for me so well happy with that, there is talk of another run over the weekend with ALTs etc if you are around?

Mr Jones · 19 Dec 2014 at 00:38

I'll try and level up my alt to have a run at the raid this weekend.

steveo · 19 Dec 2014 at 00:40

sweet just picked up the chest piece for my hunter just need legs and a boat load of shards and 32 is in sight lol

really want to take out crota this weekend if there are any ps4 groups going after him, would much prefer a ocuk group rather than randoms after the hassle i have just had with the group i got the chest piece with

danclivo · 19 Dec 2014 at 00:41

My Warlock won't be anywhere near ready so Schnippzle can have my spot.

Dude solo the whole CE...

Obviously a Hunter
/MasterRace

That guy has got sum flippin big balls!! lol
Interestingly enough he admits to getting stuck on the 3rd section as a Level 31 Hunter and claims it nearly impossible to do he finally managed on like the 20th run but as a Level 32 I believe.

He's got some VERY interesting techniques there but the main thing I noticed is how little splash damage he was taking (next to nothing) and also how much damage he was causing was more than usual - hmmmmmm.

Anyways - it just goes to show, with an extra 5 people running around its actually not that hard once you get the technique right.

zoomee · 19 Dec 2014 at 08:19

Yup. It just takes a load of trial run to chain up a good sequence and take him down. Interestingly, in the run when we finished Crota, no one died. We stuck to the plan right from start (with slight tweak on timing) and for a moment, it was silent on chat.

I think everyone knew this was it, either we finish it happy or go to bed wondering what we could have done better. Thankfully it was the former

I'm in....got so close last night before I had to pick it in. I'm sure Dancula's group would have finished it off within a couple of tries.

Saturday afternoon probably best for me.
