Destiny

This is getting out of hand. Every week now I run Crota on normal and on hard, just trying to get the chest or helmet. I have an exotic chest, an exotic helmet, and raid boots and gauntlets. A raid chest/helmet will get me to 32.

Every week I get gauntlets again, a raid weapon, and radiant material.

Every. Single. Week.

FWIW, I have 4,763 pair of warlock raid gauntlets. Scored two more today.
 
Another easy run, didn't get the chest piece I need for my hunter to hit 32, got black hammer for the 4th time.

Same. I need the boots for my warlock and the chest for my hunter. Can't get either to drop. Gotten every other piece multiple times.
 
Wow. Got a group off destinylfg just now. 4 randoms and a duo that was together. First try we killed him and it wasn't even close.

Finally folks are learning how to do HM properly. I didn't even have to fire rockets. I was on bubble duty for the boomers. Everyone knew the strat and executed it without a problem.

Sweet run. 7 minutes and out.
 
So what's the replay value if you get to 32? Just wondering as I just got to 25 and barely even understand half of what you are talking about

Just prepping for the next DLC practically. Hitting 32 isn't easy, at least for some. I've got 2 characters that are one raid piece away but I can they either to drop. Hopefully by HoW I will have finally got there.
 
Freak and I had some good luck tonight. Back to back HM Crota kills on first try with randoms from destinylfg. Still haven't seen a Crux drop in the 5 HM kills I did today.

No Land Beyond for easy heavy ammo glitch is awesome. Empty rockets (switch them a couple times in your inventory), then switch to NLB and leave 4 in the chamber. Empty the NLB after starting the crystal and switch to Icebreaker. Heavy will be everywhere. Haven't used a synth in forever on Crota.

How do people figure this crap out? Is this just for hard mode?

When do you guys get down on the hard mode? I have 3 characters and usually do 1 with my friends and then have to LFG the other two. I usually only have time to Raid on Tuesdays and then on the weekend. Maybe we can hook it up sometime.
 
We are on PS4. We usually have 3-6 people doing a lot of the raid Tuesday morning 8:30-noon. Usually knock out the pit and bridge sections on all 3, then hit some nightfalls.

I'm usually on after 930 or 10 on weeknights and will either play with those guys and/or Freak and then use destinylfg for the rest. I try and knock out Crota as quick as possible.

Come join us if you're on PS4. My PSN is JimLaheysCar Add me and feel free to join if you see us.

I still need the Hunger rocket launcher so I'll probably do normal on all my characters next week then do hard.
 
cool I'm on PS4. I have freak added, my PSN is Super_Ghosted. Tuesday morning might work for me when you have space. If I'm on and you guys are ready to go just message me and I'll most likely be ready to go.

I should mention we don't always run legit raids. We have someone jump off the 2nd rock onto the ledge in part 1. Then we have someone go across on the bridge section and warlocks die/revive and snipe everything. Just quicker, really.

Everyone has done it legit...we are just looking to do it quickly and get the gear/rewards. We usually do those 2 sections on all 3 chars and then move to nightfalls on Tuesday mornings.

I think a 3rd guy with ghorn got to 32 this week which should make Crota much easier for this group.
 
Yeah I'm fine with cheesing I usually solo the lamps on all my characters anyway, I've got Gjally and three 32 characters so we should have plenty of dps.

Sando.. add me StoVol70

jeffjim.. got it done on my other 2 characters tonight, guy named archangel running sword as titan.. i was in ogre room all night shooting at ceiling distracting boomers, got fang scout rifle twice for total of 3 now.. my fav weapon, also, when my titan got it done i had enough shards to make my hunter 32.. so all three classes are 32 now.. thats a tough thing to do believe me.. we had 2 31's last go round with my hunter, archangel plays it safe and only goes for 4 hits one time
 
Heck yeah. Good to hear you got him down a few times.

I'm not a big fan of the tower distraction from below or behind shooting at the wall. If your group gets a few orbs at the beginning, a titan can just throw a bubble on the bridge and distract the boomers there each time. When I'm doing the bubble, I can usually shoot rockets and help downing the swordbearer as well. But, either way works in the end.

If you've got a hunter, using razor's edge to kill accolites before the wall drops is pretty darn cool and can save some time.
 
you'll have to teach me the titan bubble method.. im only familiar with the 2 purple boobs technique
 
So I'm about sign off and go to bed and decide to join an Atheon hard mode CP...got the Vex Mythoclast and Hardlight.

Won't be complaining about weapon drops anytime soon, however I will continue to ***** if Crota doesn't drop me the one piece I need on two characters to get to 32.

But I'm pretty happy right now.
 
Sto -

Ripped a few seconds of gameplay for you. If I'm doing the bubble, I help take down the swordbearer. Then, as our guy runs for the sword, you run to the side (whichever they use) and put the bubble on the bridge. If you need to, you can step back and shoot Crota when needed and then hop back in the bubble. Blessing of light gives you a shield to run back inside and pick up a few orbs. Also a great spot for jumping off the bridge towards the center and running to the Ogre room.

If the Knights don't automatically start shooting at you, just shoot them a time or two and then do your bubble. Easy stuff.
