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

Well given that it is currently just you and me signed up for the evening raid it is probably best to cancel.

Funky can't make it till at least 11pm (has to work)
HairyHen said he might be on but not till later.

So it probably easiest to cancel.

I have actually signed up for a raid via 100.io myself for 8pm so will be doing that instead.

I am purely running this now to get more comfortable with the mechanics of the daughters and oryx. Managed to run the raid last night in under 2 hours so hoping I can run it quicker tonight.

Ok no problems, if u need a spare for tonight then just send me an invite. I'll probably just do my daily bounties, couple of strikes then might do a bit of Halo 5 as well.

Mind u I got work tomo morning so won't be on for too late.
 
I cruised through hard mode with an LFG group last night up to Oryx and they decided we were doing the no knights strategy. It looks to me like a total mess of a way to do things with ogres running off all over the place and no one really sure what orb they're meant to be running for.

The group were flabbergasted when I suggested we just kill the ogres and shoot the knights. :rolleyes:

I'm very against it as well. Meths we do a 'knight watcher' strat where we just do the fight as normal but instead of 2 on support we just have 1 support and other 'support' is our knight watcher he snipes the knights as they spawn. Basically removes the extra mechanic from the fight so it's just a matter of worrying about things having more health and doing more damage. It worked very well on Wednesday.

EDIT - The Knight Watcher also does damage on Ogres whenever he can.
 
I'm sure my brother vinman66 would be available if you can't get anybody else. Do we all have the same checkpoint?

I don't have the checkpoint but as long as the fireteam leader does we shall start at the CP. If it goes ahead I shall be bring my alt so I get the drops for the bits we get through.

Ah its ok, answered my own question, I was on the raid the other night with fez and was wondering if we all had the same checkpoint. I've just been on and checked and I have that checkpoint as well :)
 
Cheers greeboth that would be great. I'll see if we can cobble together a team.

Bluebear and daz, that sounds like a plan. I'll be on relatively early so I'll keep an eye out and message you guys.

In theory we have

Mctrials
Greeboth
Daz
Bluebear


up for a run with you chaps if you needs moi.
should be on about 8.

If you and greeboth could rock up at 9 that would be great zoomee. Hopefully with you two it won't take long to finish!
 
You got anything good yet sonny?

all rewards were crap apart from the lighthouse weapon.

I got the auto rifle. It looks like a beast for short range maps.

Ideally wanted the pulse rifle because as I stated as soon as the patch came out it was really obvious pulse rifles > all.

It's "adept" but not 320 or got a burn. It looks like a pvp only weapon so not as special as previous trials weapons.

I'm hoping to do another flawless run tomorrow on the warlock. I may again need a third for that after 5pm.
 
Destiny was pretty generous with loot tonight! One HM raid put out the following:

320 Ghost shell
319 Titan Mark
314 Pulse
316 Fusion
314 Fusion
303 Fusion (yup, 3 fusions from one raid!)
308 Chest
306 Chest

I then did a Nightfall and got:

310 Insurmountable Skullfort (as end reward)
310 Mask of the Third Man (exotic engram that fell from boss)
310 Zhalo Supercell (legendary engram from Cryptarch package after cashing in the exotic)
Darkblade Helm (fell from boss)

:D
 
Right guys we are ready to go when you are.

Thanks again for the run last night, really enjoyed it. I thought Golgoroth went down pretty well but once again my jumping let everybody down, the one time I got up to the relic, we ran out of time! Maybe I had the wrong jump selected because it seemed to take an age to land on the platform :o

Sorry fez, I know you wanted to get this put to bed and I let you down :(

At least tehbluebear got his exotic sword before hand :)
