PS4 Bros,
My friend (27 Warlock) and I (28 Hunter) are interested in giving the raid a shot for the first time tomorrow night after 9PM EDT. I'd much rather run with it with bros than randoms, so if any of you all are interested, please leave a post here and let me know. Thanks much!

I'd much rather run with it with bros than randoms, so if any of you all are interested, please leave a post here and let me know. Thanks much! There might be an easier way. If I understand correctly, PS4 bros have a party chat with everybody in it. You guys just need to befriend a PS4 bro who plays a lot, jump into that party, and find players of similar interest. I'll let Raid leaders on the PS4 side offer more details.

Ookjawa, I invited you to our PS4 clan group message on PSN. We have 15 members in there, and I think you'll find what you're looking for pretty easily. Only rule of the group message is please do not invite non-clan members into it.

Any XB1 bros up for VoG tonight around 7 Pacific?

I think Dumien was going to try and set up a group tonight. I still need to run it before the reset as well, so I'm in as long as I can get clearance from the wife.

While we are at the topic LFG: trying to see if anybody has similar play time pattern as me . I usually have the entire Thursday evening and whole day Sunday to play, while the rest of the week are hit and miss. Anybody interested in doing the weekly missions multiple times? I need to run it once per character, at the highest level I can manage, for the Strange Coins. I am also hoping for Nightfall, but I was told unless I am lvl 28 it would be suicide. However, if you plan to solo through it anyway, pick me up so I can at least "anchor" you with my lvl 26 Hunter that are specialized in invisibiility. In the case that you die and I am in no position to revive you, we can do the "cheesy" way of self revive by you leaving and rejoining (assuming it works). On Raid: the highest character I have is 26, with some grinding to go before reaching 27 (got the exotic/legendary pieces enough to go to level 28, just need to upgrade them. Ironically, the most I need at the point are armor materials. May have to buy low level armor just to dismantle them). Although I have "played" Raid once, honest speaking I don't think that I should waste anybody's time until I reach level 27, unless the party already has 5 strong players and just need a filler. If you do, count me in for Thursday evening and Sunday.

If you haven't done the VoG hard mode yet this week....I have a Hard mode save checkpoint, right at the GateLord stage (the stage right before Atheon)
Use it or lose it before tomorrow.

Finally reached level 27 (had to buy a shit load of green armors to dismantle into armor materials for the upgrade). Anybody is up for Normal Raid on Thursday evening and don't mind having a noob on the team?

As it stands now, I should be able to play all night on Thursday, starting at around 7pm PT. Mal: I will have 2 characters Raid ready (lvl27 Bladedancer almost fully upgraded and lvl26 Defender with upgrade up to weapon of light), and don't mind running through the Raid twice if we still have enough people when you get on. Weapon wise: I got Grim Citizen and Ice Breaker fully upgraded. The most I need now are Raid experience, hopefully I will be de-noobed this week Stone ( iw5000), would 7pm PT be too late for you?

Great, looks like we have a Raid party on XONE with the following gamertags in the order of timezones:
StoneColdLoad (East) HebbNH (Central) thebb2 (Central) Mal Gato (West after 10pm PT) beavenge (West) WittyScorpion72 (West)
We need at least 1 more for first half when mal is not on. We may need more for second half, the number is depending on how many of us can still play after 10pm PT. If we can't do Raid, we can run weekly.
What we will do is to first get everybody into a XBL party, then go from there.

I'm in for 7:00 PST on normal with my 27 Sunsinger, but would only be able to run once as we'll likely finish around 11 or so CST, aka bedtime. Any more easterly bros running earlier in the evening, like say 7:00 or so EST? Could do either hard or normal for that one with my 28/29 Hunter.

Great, it looks like we may potentially have three parties! Anyone else looking to get in on some Raid action? I'd vote that the 10:00 EST / 7:00 PST group takes priority since it was formed first. Specifically, if we get a group to go at 5:00 PST and we're not done by 7:00 PST or whenever the other members of that group are ready to go, we get a checkpoint and call it quits, resuming some other time. Sound fair?
Approximately 8:00 EST / 5:00 PST -- Hard/Normal TBD -- Weekly Strike if not filled? 1. StoneColdLoad 2. HebbNH 3. THebb22 4. Open 5. Open 6. Open
Approximately 10:00 EST / 7:00 PST -- Normal 1. StoneColdLoad 2. HebbNH 3. THebb22 4. WittyScorpion72 5. Beavenge 6. Mal Gato (wife permitting) OR Open
"After the 10:00 EST / 7:00 PST group gets done or has to quit" -- Hard/Normal TBD -- Weekly Strike if not filled 1. WittyScorpion72 2. Beavenge 3. Mal Gato 4. StoneColdLoad (time permitting) OR Open 5. Open 6. Open

If you guys already have a Raid going by the time we west coasters log on, I say just continue and finish it. Don't break the momentum unless you guys are stuck.

If things go to plan we should be done before 7:00 PST anyway. Then again, things pretty much went to plan a couple weeks ago on iw5K's first run and we still wound up getting stuck on Gatekeeper/Atheon for 3.5 - 4 hours due to random BS and glitches. If we end up doing hard mode I'd imagine that would slow things down as well. We'll play it by ear, but I just want to make sure we don't put you guys out by having you sitting around waiting on us.

I might be on if anyone needs an extra member. I don't need the raids anymore, but I'll gladly be a 6th if you need it.
Edit: Thursday... I'm dead tired today.

If we try a VoG-Hard at 8pmET slot (I could go earlier if needed, I can be ready at 7pmET)....I think post is the only level 30. Is that about right? (I am lv 29). Based on your talk in the other thread heb, we would need at least 3 lv30's?

Dumien, you got any heavy hitters you can bring in to help us out and/or carry us lowly 29s through?
