I'm showing offline right now, so just send me an invite when you guys want to give it a try. Also beezy, can you retry the challenge if you failed it the first time and still get the challenge loot?

I believe so. Think that's how it worked on Kings Fall. Challenge is separate from the normal completion.

I'm down for some more Crota and still need to do Ir Yut again if you all have time. I believe I have both check points.

VoG challenges have been figured out. Templar is what everyone thought. No teleporting. Atheon is where it gets interesting. The challenge is simple to explain. Every player must destroy an Oracle during the teleporting phase. Execution will be much harder. Going to be a lot of going in and out of the gate.

Yep and I saw that it helps to tether, use weapons of light and sleeper simulants to try and take out atheon in 1 damage phase.

Also the time you have to damage Athlon starts when the last Oracle is killed. So get your cleansing done before then.

I'll be on around 8:00 tonight. I'll probably use my Hunter for the first run.

I read to not tether because it negates the times vengeance buff. Will be interesting to see.

I bet celestial nighthawk golden guns will wreck at Atheon since you have infinite supers during times vengeance.

Hopefully I can get on in time for the full raid tonight. If not I will just continue my trend from the past week and take someone's spot on the last boss and reap the loot

Had quite the haul during the 2 VoG challenges:
P Timepiece, Fatebringer, P Timepiece adept, VoC adept.

https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/63ghux/25_things_you_might_not_know_in_destiny/

so the "Mars" and "Venus" portals in VoG are actually Venus in the past and Venus in the future??

Mind blown

Yep. If you look around, it's the same room you are in for the atheon encounter, just a different time period. Back in year 1 I never liked calling it Mars and Venus. He is times conflux, not location conflux.

I am down to do some VOG challenges this weekend. I ran it on my Warlock yesterday.. it took a long time. Just some quick points to make here in case you are thinking of running it and have forgotten some Atheon stuff:

1) Please --- no swords
2) Please --- no rockets
3) Sleeper is great but it can make you kill yourself on oracles
4) Jumping the sides after each round increases the probability of success of the next round -- but to do that someone needs to be on ad control with about 10 seconds of DPS left.. use super and grenades as well
5) Call out which oracle is yours and kill it and only it --- being selfish is nice.. I can't express how many times I had a teammate kill my oracles b/c he trying to help me... this is especially true if you have a raid weapon (VoC or Fatebringer drop from Templar)
6) Be patient with each other -- I did and LFG and had multiple cases where people just got really frustrated and said some really inappropriate things to one other after the same person messed up a few times.. If it is the same person having the same issue, find a new role or way to use them - just troubleshoot the problem. I honestly don't think this will be a problem with the clan because we are all chill and know each other
7) Call things out as soon as you can. If you are going to be the last person into the portal say it so the other 2 people outside run in as soon as it opens and there isn't confusion.. They really have to be in there ASAP to kill the 3rd oracle that spawns.
8) Remember the sometimes RNG hates you -- There are times when all three people teleported will be on the Venus side and that is where they end up.. It is nearly impossible to for 3 people on the other side to break containment and make it across the map and build the gate in time to get in and kill Oracles 3 and 4. The only shot you have is if the relic holder kills 3 and the two people enter and teamshoot 4 and then the one who didn't get the kill takes 5. Even then it can be dicey and takes really good execution. So, when it happens, you just have to shrug and curse Bungie and RNGesus
9) Have fun and laugh some.

I am sure there are more things.. And each group will likely have a slightly different approach. The challenge is tricky to execute. I have seen a group run it in 20 minutes and some groups take 5 hours just on Atheon to get the challenge.. So, have your beer(s) nearby and controllers charged, Guardians!

Thanks Forrest for the pointers!! Now if we can ever get a 6th person to run with, we can put these to use.

That all sounds like awesome advice. I'm hoping to run all three atheon challenges at some point with the clan since LFG is going to suck on this one. Templar is not that big of a deal. It can be soloed if needed.

I'll try to be on some again this week. I'm actually getting close to 400 after the long layoff.

Logged in a couple of days ago just to check where I was at. I am at around 385 light, would I even be helpful in the new raids?

Honestly, not yet. I was marginally benefitial at 394. But you can level up pretty quickly now especially running strikes.
Ph.D.Aggies
How long do you want to ignore this user?

you can run Crota from last week and the drops still are high light (up to 400) but there are no challenges.. but it is another good way to get light levels. Do the NF with the sunset bounty for an extra higher LL drop.

If we can't get 6 tonight I might PUG it. It has been a long week getting on every night to either 4 or 5 people.

Unfortunately I can't. Have to be at work for half a day starting at 6 tomorrow morning.

Unless six are on around 6:30 or 7 this evening.
