Raid Group

It sounds like TRIHunter's raid group has filled up.  Id love to start another one if people are interested.

I am on every night after 9:30 central for a few hours.  Probably 2 days a week (Tuesday and Thursday or whatever works for people) I can log on around 7:30 or 8:00 central depending on how bad kids are at bedtime.

I dont mind running it over a few nights (or all week).  We dont have to complete it all at once.  If we dont get a full 6, we can do strikes and/or invite randoms.  I got randomly invited to a raid group this week and they were good folk and it was a lot of fun.

Post here if interested.

I am interested but availability is very sketchy.Halo is Tues and Thur nights.

I've been kind of holding off on the VoG until I can get 6 over 50 guys available.

If there is interest, I can change it to Mondays/Wednesdays.  Doesnt matter to me.  More up to my wife.

 

And this is age discrimination.  I know we sub-50 guys are immature and all, but we do have a grey hair or two. :)

On gear, although it is certainly helpful to finish the raid, I dont think it is a requirement as long as you are 26.  Right now we are starting anyway.

And if you need purple armor - it is insanely easy to get it in the Queen's Bounty + one mission.  You will get one purple armor or weapon for each pair (although it is possible to get duplicates).  If you need help with any of those, just hit me up.

I'll be looking into doing this on the PS4. Just about level 26.

Doesn't the raid saves get reset every Tuesday? If so, Mon/Wed wouldn't really work

Good point.  And to be clear - we can do it as many nights as people want if people are interested.  I just cant log on early every night.  I havent fought with my wife in 15 years of marrige, and I dont want to start now. :)  Others can always lead it too.

 

And Dixon/Phil, I watched your stream yesterday while I was also watching football and working at home (I have to say I am starting to love the snap feature on the XB1).  That was the only part of the raid I have done, so there werent any spoilers for me.  I really wish I had 2 more strange coins so I could have gotten the Suros Regime.  Nice gun.

That was my first time beating the boss there too.  You know, if even one person in the party hasn't done that/any part of it, it'll take you almost ten runs before everyone gets on the same page.  

 

That Suros is stupid good.  I shudder to think about what's coming this week.

I'm not to level 26 yet, so that's what I meant by not being geared-up enough. I would surely have made it to 26 had I not been away this weekend, thus unable to buy from Xur.

The Queen's missions have only been giving me Helmets and Chests, but I did get the sniper once. Can you also get gloves and boots from the Queen's missions?

I thought you could, but I might be wrong about that.  All I got were helms and chests, but I only ran three missions.

Thanks for playing strikes the other night!  So far, I've gotten 3 of the Queen's helmets.

I have a run for XB1 up on destinyruns.com right now, I was going to do it tonight but figured it would be pointless if we didn't finish and it would get wiped tomorrow.  I'm shooting for Wednesday night now, and would love to be able to finish it in one sitting!

Current character is a 26.5 warlock, should be 27 by Wednesday.

I think you get loot in stages.  Also practice is good - will make the second run faster.  So even if you dont finish it, there are reasons to do partial runs.  Im up for it any night you see me on.

Tabasco and anyone else -if you need help gearing up, hit me up and Im game.  Also it looks like there are no arm or leg rewards for the Queen's set.

Beat it tonight. No achievement popped but I got a legendary and a shader. Fight was fucking I tense. The whole teamwork thing is true. Every single player has to be on point or you will fail. Definitely my favorite part of destiny so far.

You have any trouble with the last part of the final boss? Ran through it with my warlock last night and the portals kept glitching and not letting people through, and the minotaur at the end kept just ignoring damage.

Had no problem with minotaur but yeah those portals can be glitchy. 90 percent if time we get through fine though. Really sucks when a supplicant comes through the portal when you are busy fighting oracles and don't expect it. Lol

iil add you guys and send invites tonight.  If I cant get on by 8 someone else can lead.  My dog got skunked for the 5th time last night and I was up all night dealing with that nightmare.  I should still be on, but I might pass out too.

I read you have to push stick forward as you exit to help not getting transported to the other planet.  This glitch hosed my final boss run over and over.

It seems like if 2 people go through at the same time or too close together it screws it up.

Overheard at Bungie-

"Okay guys, we need to come up with some rewards for the guys who beat the raid. It's a challenge so let's try and give them something good."

"I dunno, that sounds like work and I did just buy that new jetski..."

"Yeah, you're right. Just use the starter weapons and shit on em, that looks good enough. Just make sure you save some just in case they ever find a rare ship, we need to color those too."

You don't want to run it fresh? It reset yesterday.

We only got 4 people last night.

 

We can try tonight after 9:30 if enough people are on.  But for sure Thursday after 8:30.

Liquor, what is your XBL GT?  I'll add scorpio too.

Does making multiple runs to the first chest bare much fruit?

Suros Regime?  It's like having your cake and eating too, and it doesn't make you gain weight.   Even with two big talkers claiming to know how to down Atheon, he just beat us down every time.

templar as in the one with the yellow oracles after defending the confluxes?  We rolled through that pretty easy last night.  Way easier then the other times I've done it and it was such a simple strategy.
