Bungie screwed us out of an oryx completion with ridiculous lag on the final round. So we said "COME AT ME BRO" and beat him again on the next try. Worked that time. All so I could get my 3rd chest piece drop of the night (none of which were higher than my previous raid chest piece).

Congrats to Hard Mode Raid crew for the clear! All of us have a pretty good understanding of the fight now and have it down (except when Oryx glitches out...that was some bs). Future clears will be much smoother.
Just remember, if you are running 2nd position you are Oryx +1 platform, and if you are a hunter, you can jump from a plate to a sister platform. (Learn something new every day).

Got a nice surprise when I got back to the Tower last night. Oryx dropped a 310 Helm of Saint-14 for me last night that I didn't notice since I was full on helms.
Still awaiting the ever elusive Hallowed Helm on any of the toons so I can finally get the Hard Mode armor shader.
Did you guys want to run through HM, again sometime this week?
Do we still get gear drops if we do it again this week? If so, I could run it again.
Although before we do it again, I humbly request we do a quick VoG run so I can get closer to obtaining No Time to Explain.

excited for arms day just so I can claim and then break down 15 legendary weapons and plug my weapon parts hemorrhage temporarily.
Can't wait to get my raze-lighter today.
Mid, I'll help you with vog, if you help me get my sword.
You get gear drops if you run it with a different character

Damn. I need to get on that train.

I need to start doing this for the marks and parts...
Never thought of that
btw, Armsday weapon recommendations are up on Planet Destiny
http://planetdestiny.com/armsday-roll-suggestions/
there might be 1 or 2 guns worth keeping depending on your needs. I don't have a Hakke pulse rifle yet, so I'll probably keep one of those.

with 3 characters it's guaranteed 45 legendary marks and 30-45 weapon parts
Anyone down for a Normal mode raid today?
Mid, I can help, though I wont be on much for the rest of the week. (With the exception of tomorrow...) I think I can run HM with my alts to Oryx. (Cant bring him down...too low of light).
At the least, I can run a Normal mode on the alts.

I'll be on tonight raiding
I'm in for a normal mode raid.
quote:My warlock is also 311+ and needs a HM raid. Can't tonight, but maybe tomorrow or Sunday/Monday evening.
Did you guys want to run through HM, again sometime this week?
ill be on around 5:30-6 tonight
I should be on around 6
I could use a normal raid for my titan or lock
I can do a normal raid too. Just send me an invite when you guys start. I'll bring my lock or hunter.
Just chilling right now waiting to get this started. Bringing my Titan again
20 moldering shards taken to produce an uncharged antiquated rune. Thanks bungie.
I have oryx hm cp for my 310 warlock if any of y'all want to help me finish him off at some point.
Did those of y'all working on Normal Oryx have any luck last night?
VoG tonight? Figure we could get it done in an hour or so.
Bought the HUNG JURY and got it to 313. That thing is a BEAST.
Debating on buying the villainy, or 1000 yard state next. Any other recommendations?

I picked up the Hakke pulse rifle with Army of One and Counterbalance from the Gunsmith yesterday, and hoooooly crap that gun is a monster.
I was tearing up mobs in the nightfall with the gun still at 280 and without the final column upgraded. I felt like I had basically unlimited grenades and throwing knives, and the gun itself hits like a truck.

quote:1000 Yard Stare from the Vanguard vendor is awesome. That was my go-to until I got a raid sniper that I use to keep my light level up more than anything else. Quickly learning that the Perfectionist perk is more than likely not going to be very useful at the end of the raid.

quote:Just an FYI for those still expanding their armories - this weapon really is probably the best all around legendary PVE weapon. I love the Zhalo Supercell and the Tlaloc (when on my warlock), but this thing is just a perfect PVE machine and can tear up bosses while keeping your exotic slot open for Black Spindle if you're in the first half of the raid.

Absolutely worth the 125 (150?) marks. Very smart move to be anyone's first big marks purchase if they want to raid.
Ill be on tonight (though will be playing MGSV). I'm happy to help out any Normal Raids, HM Raids (through Sisters...my alts are still low), and I'll even throw in VoG if you guys are still needing it.
Just send a message! I'll be on around 7-730 or so.

The Hung Jury is awesome, but more and more I'm leaning towards weapons with Army of One (or One Man Army?) as my perk of choice. Maybe just my play style, but the rapid refill of melee and grenade abilities is incredibly valuable. It can also be paired with gear perks that fill super or drop orbs quite easily.
I've never been too impressed with firefly.
quote:I can understand that - I've probably never noticed how useful Army of One may be since I'm normally not throwing a ton of punches and only a few grenades here or there while in the raid. Most of the encounters generally have us at range, so I mostly love Hung Jury for triple tap and its usefulness.

I can do VoG tonight, never done it. Be on around 6, might know another guy that needs to do it if we need another

You are gonna have a blast. It's a great raid!
I won't be on until around 7:30-8:00 CST.

Firefly is quite possibly the greatest perk for dealing with mobs.
