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

Got him down. Found it was much easier having two bubbles, weapons and blessing....really helps you survive the extra attacks he chucks at you. Other than that, not too different.

314 Harrowed machine gun...absolute beast of a roll :) On golgoroth
 
Called it at sisters...really good balance in HM. Group of randoms and we progressively improved over each encounter and cracked it by the 10th go or so each time on warpriest/golgoroth. Not too many changes but enough to keep you on your toes.

314 MG from WP which is a beast and 319 int/dis chest from golgoroth. Drops were from 300-320 so happy with that!

Golgoroth is 310 btw so light level is important. One bubble works fine.

Changes spoilers!

No revives inside obviously

Relics run out a lot quicker on first part

Yellow bar knights on totems

Warpriest gains power from each totem the oculus destroys, right one gives him black taken captain orbs. Middle is taken sniper shots. They HURT. Double bubble weapons and blessing really helps as he is harder to stagger as well so you're going to take damage

Golgoroth is exactly the same but the guys in the bubble randomly get a tainted light debuff, that makes you explode like a cursed thrall after a few seconds (without killing you), you just have to leg it...DPS suffers as a result.
 
Good run tonight chaps on HM, all the way to Oryx. Just need a few bumps to light levels and I think we'll all be alright. Bit disappointed not to get it finished but on the plus side, up to 311.
 
What's strat for sisters? Spent an hour and a half on it with randoms. Jumping and getting relic isn't an issue....just seems to be add management. I did suggest more people went stormcaller/hammers as it was just me clearing with hammers.

When we finish our boss dps we bring the aura around near the catwalk where we have a clear view of all the adds. This is something we did on normal mode as well but it's more important now that you don't get a break to reset.

Hammers/Storm certainly help but hardly essential, if you have a few malices in that aura you can clear the area very quickly. That group last night have raided together quite a few times before which really helped as well.
 
Yeah we did same, dps, walk aura over to the walkway towards the centre, clearing adds. Problem was people not clearing eyes and centurions before heading back to plates.

Still, considering it was randoms I think sisters was pretty good getting that far. The100.io is really good for randoms, had some great groups over the weekend.

Dumb question though, the groups I was with were insistent that we kill the first sister on the first run.....is that necessary?

Nope and honestly you are better off not killing her on the first run. IIRC the second wizard gains either increased health or has a damage reduction if you do kill the first one.

Given the accelerated timing on HM you really don't want the second wizard to gain a larger health pool.

The key for that fight is everyone knowing exactly where they are going to go on each reset (normally 2 resets). DPS doesn't seem to be an issue with a combination of ToM and high impact snipers (I think on our run all 6 of us had ToM so that certainly helped).

Oryx on the other hand..... :eek:

Definitely worth re-running through on alts to get drops to infuse on your main. Being 311+ helps massively.

I assume we are still on for tonights "up to Daughters / Oryx on alts" run from 8:30?

I'm in OweO, so is Corey. Think everybody said they were up for it last night.
 
Got some 318 boots after finishing Oryx HM :) rest of loot was pretty bad. Assume it will reset Tuesday though so can run it again in a couple of days?

I've done up to the sisters twice this week and my drops have been pretty bad as well. My best drops were both snipers, a 316 and 314 (the 314 went straight into Black Spindle). Beyond that I think I got a 310 chest and 313 boots. Still, it was enough to get my Warlock up to 310, so that's good enough for me at the moment.
 
NM drops were garbage this week, two runs and apart from a 306 class item which was infused, rest was 300 :/ 314 MG and 319 chest from one HM run to sisters though which is pretty decent.

Titan should be 308 after reset when I switch back to NM and can equip my exotic again :| He's still running a 297 helm though, just can't get any decent drops for it.
