*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

I might be on tonight but not 100%. No phone calls (texts...) yet so.. good I suppose?!


On the question of raiding is anyone up for finishing off our HM run from earlier in the week? I would just like to get it done (and we were damn close).
 
Really sorry about the no show for the raid last night, it just completely slipped my mind, I was too busy watching the F1 qualifying! Hope you got it done.
 
No problems Mach. Yeah we got it done, got the quest for OP too :D had two people leave during Aksis St2, but we found replacements soon enough.

Anyone online who wants to do the first part of the OP quest with me? I'm a hunter so will need a lock and a titan

EDIT: Nostalgia raids would be fun at some point too. I'd love to complete the VoG armour set, and get Word of Crota and Crux of Crota from CE.

Ended up with a busy weekend so didn't get HM completed on either character. As I am busy tonight too who is up for a reset HM raid?

WotM HM Raid - 8:30 pm (GMT) - PS4
1. Greboth 393+ Warlock
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.


Also, I am waiting on armsday for Dark Drinker, I know quite a few people need to do the strike, so anyone up for that on Wednesday? I should be online from around 7 and around all night.
 
Can't do Tuesday this week but I'm down for a Wednesday HM run. Think most people are running alts through now so should be enough people.

I'm also waiting on Dark Drinker armsday delivery, so will be up for running the strike quickly before the raid.

Wednesday WotM HM Raid - 7:30 pm (GMT) - PS4
1. Middgen Titan
2.

I can make Wednesday too, depending on if / how Tuesday goes depends whether I bring my main or alt.
 
Is this being run on the Wednesday? Sounds good to me. Just need to purchase all nodes on the purple void sword and then I should get the quest for the materials, correct? Can't quite remember how it works out.

I think there is already 3 with me, Midgen and Mach. Though the strike shouldn't take too long so could run it again. However, if you haven't even unlocked the quest yet you have a lot of work to do, a bit of a guesstimate but I would say it took me about 8 hours of grinding to get it all done. The vast majority of that being step 1 and 2.

From memory;
Unlock all nodes on sword and infuse above a certain light level (300 I think) which gives you the quest
Step 1: Kill 50 majors and 25 crucible kills
Step 2: Collect 10 void things from relic iron (mine seemed to be around 1 in 17 relic iron) and get void ability kills (don't know how many as just a percentage. Though I got ~90% in the few hours of going round collecting relic iron)
Step 3: Kill the Blade of Crota on the Dreadnaught
Step 4: Use 5 motes of light to clean the blade
Step 5: Wait for the next armsday
Step 6: Complete the strike

It has very little MMO aspects to be honest. It has some RPG elements in that you have a character, with skills, that you level up etc.. but fundamentally their all combat skills. The support skills are just token gestures.

The man 6 raid teams are something you wont' really find anywhere else outside of an MMO, but its heavily FPS focused.

It really is something all of its own, even now years later there's nothing quite like it.

Yes there's still plenty that play it. Think we've got around 20+ players on each platform still active every week.

You can skip step 1 if your doing it on a class that has already done one sword. You'll go straight to Step 2

Yep, that's what I thought, doing it on my hunter who already has done Raze-Lighter. Top stuff.

I'll get cracking tonight. Think I'll postpone any nostalgia raids until the tail end of the week if that makes it easier for people who may want to come along?
 
Sorry I have been quiet on Destiny (PS4) over the weekend.

A friend persuaded me to buy some XBL and play BF1 with him on that and been playing pretty much non-stop.

Will aim to get some Destiny time in this week at some point, I'll pop up on here as ideally I'd like to sweep the HM raid.
