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

Truth really puts the boot in on her - the other wizards spawn rather quickly so can get a little bit manic to keep them all under control and out of the way of your shots (They seem to like to play bodyguard) but it was a fun way of doing it. Risk and reward!
 
Patched 35 is now I think a much better encounter :D. Having to work together as a team, rather than just spamming rockets, working with the mechanics of the fight rather than getting around them.
 
What happened rooster? Never mind, knackered anyway, been a long day.

How about thursday? 7:30pm GMT PoE
1) middgen
2) OweO?
3) Rooster?

Yeah I *should* be ok for this. Cough is still a problem so I may be quieter than normal. :)

The ads at Omnigul spawn based on her health (75-50-25 & 66/33 for the exploders) - when a burn is active you can end up getting 2 waves in very quick succession... makes for an interesting fight! :D

Actually, can I make this an earlier run, seem to remember you finish work fairly early. 6pm too early? Don't usually get time on a Thursday but the gf is busy for a couple hours :)

Keen on blasting through the 35, going to get my 34s done on lunch breaks.

Yeah I am ok with that. Starting earlier is probably better anyway as my concentration starts to flag much sooner at the moment.
 
I found a helpful article for Trials this weekend: http://www.lifehacker.co.uk/2015/06/16/avoid-sore-loser-competitive-games

(Particularly relevant for me)

I can at least save myself some time by skipping the "Practice being a Graceful Winner" part :p

I've noticed a couple guys on Xbox now with the flawless emblem e.g. Martin, gord etc. Did you guys do it with regular Destiny mates or randoms? Also, did you find any real difference in the strength of the opposition teams based on the times/days you played?

I've been flawless three times now, twice with randoms and once with my American friends.

The easiest time was with the Americans, we went straight into trials as soon as it opened and it wasn't too bad, we faced some tough teams. Lost one match, but we all had the mercy on. Obviously you could have an entirely different experience though. I've known them since Destiny was released pretty much so it was really easy playing trails with them, was an enjoyable run. In that run we weren't even all level 34 with maxed weapons.

You'll probably always come up against some tough teams no matter what time you play.

It's all about team work for me, you can be geared up with all the top exotics and whatnot but a good team could still come in and thrash you with some random selection of auto rifles and hand cannons if they are playing as team better.

Don't get cocky if you win a couple of rounds either (it's easily done), on my 9th game of a run we were down 3-0 but brought it back as the other team started being cocky and rushing around.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make tomorrow night at 6 as I am out of the house present shopping. :o

Completely forgot about this until I saw what date tomorrow was. My head is still really fuzzy. Apparently I spent 5 minutes late last night hitting the clock(alarm radio) as the music wouldn't stop - my wife had to remind me that I had headphones on... :rolleyes::(

Sorry chaps.
 
For the lvl 32/34 PoE is there any specific requirement

I'm level 32 and gjallarhorn dropped for me last night at the end of nightfall run.

I've been away awhile playing dragon age but finished on that now so been back on Destiny last few nights, whats the current weapons of choice? I have suros, icebreaker and now hornyboomboom.

My flawless was with randoms from LFG midday on a Monday. But as always with LFG it can be hit and miss. I wouldn't join people randomly any more, I've taken to putting tags into destinytracker.com before joining them.

We smashed the first few teams 5-0, then had some higher skill teams but nothing troubling until our 8th game when we got caned. Luckily we had our mercy on, but we'd also just grabbed our double up win boon, doh!

We then tried to flawless again on different characters and we struggled a lot more. I'd say the biggest change was we lost our blinker, he switched to Titan and the lack of mobility/confusion caused for our opponents was massive.

Heh no worries. I might just rinse through the rest of my 32s and 34s.

Cheers for the runs today AStaley, shame the NAT issues meant we could only talk to the LFG random and not each other :D
