Still donating to Vegas (cause they need it). I'm in the same boat. Destiny will be a once or twice a week pleasure until HoW.

Be back late tomorrow.

I revisited this game. If you've been away from it for a while, you immediately realize all the fun you can have patrolling and striking. Unfortunately after a while you start getting caught back up in the upper level grind. I just wish there was more to the story. So much potential there and yet it still leaves me feeling extremely unsatisfied every time I go back to it.

We did Crota on regular mode last night, finally got gauntlets for my Warlock.

We thought about trying it on hard last night but we couldn't get enough takers,
plus only 2 of us were 32's, the rest were 31's or 30's....
Hopefully these new gauntlets will get me to 32.

My Hunter is a 31 also, I need raid chest piece to level up to 32.

I guess to get the raid head piece you have to do raid on hard mode? :hi:

You don't have to but head pieces are the rarest drop. Feet and arms are the most common. I've been trying to get a chest/head piece for weeks. Just can't get it to drop.

So you can get the raid head pieces in regular mode, not hard mode...thanks

I still believe I'll need to do raid on hard mode to get the Crux of Crota?
Is this what everyone is hearing?
Some of you may have already received Crux of Crota...
Is it worth getting? Thanks for the feedback...:hi:

I think that's what it's called (Crux Of Crota)

I agree. It has fantastic shooting mechanics, and it is beautiful, but it was a big letdown towards the endgame. I don't mind grinding in games (I love old school RPGs), but it is infuriating to do well and get nothing, while the scrub that placed 6th gets a rare.

It doesn't do what great MMOs do great and it doesn't do what great competitive shooters do great. It feels like a jack of all trades, but a master of none. But people are still playing the heck of it for some reason. Oh well, to each their own.

Crota raid is almost unplayable. Glitch after glitch. It's pretty pathetic. Picked up with a group at the Deathsinger CP, ran through it on first try, got crap as usual. We get to Crota and it's one glitch after another.

Oversoul doesn't die, this happened repeatedly. Taking Crota's shield down and he doesn't go down. Instead he charges at us like a maniac. Happened a few times.

Haven't seen any of these glitches.

With the oversoul, all 5 of the remaining players have to start shooting it immediately. Sounds like someone wasn't pulling their weight.

With Crota, it sounds like whoever had the sword jumped up and got to close before Crota's shield was all the way down. He does regen if not being constantly shot at.

Granted I haven't played Crota this week, but I've killed him plenty of times. The only glitch I really see is the disappearing sword. One theory is it disappears if you try to pick it up during a reload animation.

I'll be doing a few Crota HM runs tonight. I'll report back if I'm seeing a bunch of glitches.

Only one I've seen as well. The one time it happened to me I shot at Crota before picking up the sword so I was probably reloading before going for the sword.

A few successful Crota runs last night. Got Orange ran the sword and we did it pretty easily when paired with decent groups.

Quite the opposite for me. My buddy found a group on lfg needing two people for Crota Hard mode. Lamps were easy enough, but we never got past the bridge. Probably around 15 serious attempts and we never got more than two people across.

One of their guys they b*tched at every time he died. But if any of the other 3 died it was " wtf that was a glitch". A few times he struggled killing the gatekeeper and they b*tched. So they swapped order and the same thing happened to them except then it was "glitching".

They were leaving me mostly by myself to stay under the left totem which wasn't a big deal till the swordbearer came my way. A couple would stand on pillars to assist with enemies, but no one would jump down and actually get involved. They'd get mad if I died and say it' not worth your life. I'm fighting him because I'm thinking there's a couple that was helping, but there wasn't. I can stay under the totem and take out enemies. I can fight the swordbearer. I can't do all of it by myself. I don't think that means I suck, but if it does then fine. Every time I'd leave the totem to get my health up the totem would start to activate and they'd get freaked out yelling "someone get under the @#$%ing totem."

They quit and I was happy to be done with it. That's why I hate lfg.

If you have a titan and warlock, it's fairly cake. I grab the sword and jump across without the bridge. Then, the warlock dies, adds de-spawn, then he comes back and snipes everything while I hide behind the light totem just across the bridge. Sto and I did this a couple times yesterday.

I've started to do full inventory checks on all LFGs'. If there is one or more players with guns not worth a damn or leveled up I wont even waste my time. They won't be able to pull their weight.

Hard to really determine their game smarts though until you get in it with them...

Had a really rough time before those easy runs however.

One time I joined a group, before we start Crota, we start talking strategy. Nobody wants to run sword, so I volunteer. They kept telling me was down, I jump up and he's not down, he would hack me and it'd end up a wipe. Had one good run and then folks started dying for whatever reason. So after my fourth run I believe, they didn't say a word, they just booted me.

I'd bet money they didn't finish it.
