I changed the tentative start time in OP to 5pm PT. I would like to do 2 or even 3 runs if possible  , I'll try to make 5pm, no later than 5:30. I'll let you guys know here and through Bungie.net companion app whether I can or not on Thursday. |

I'm definitely in for at least two runs, and if I'm lucky I'll have my third character ready as well.

Looks like we will be 2 short on Raid tomorrow. May have to go to LFG channels to get randoms.

Yep, after 10 tomorrow might also work. I do have to work on Friday morning, but I can probably at least run a Nightfall or Weekly.

This week's Nightfall and Weekly Heroic (lv28) are very easy. The Heb's and I blazed through them multiple times last night, getting them done in like 10 to 15 min each. It was the Venus mission. The mid stage part with the three cueballs, followed by the end stage where you shoot down (cheesing) on the boss, from the high up ledge. The only hard part about the end boss was the Praetorian that re-spawns behind you in the tunnel. Makes solo'ing it a bit difficult.

Since I don't have a lot time to play on Friday and Saturday, I need to try to get all my weekly done by the time Xur shows up at the tower, for 24 - 27 coins (2 lvl28, 1 lvl 27 that can go with either lvl26 or lvl28). Will play the crap out of that Raid tomorrow night...

I played with Dumien last night (translation: got carried shamelessly through 3 weekly runs and 2 Nightfall runs), and he said he most likely can help us with Raids today. I added him to the list in OP: 10/30 Thursday VoG normal -- tentative 5pm PT start (you guys feel free to start without me as soon as you get a full team) 1. WittyScorpion 2. HebbNH 3. THebb22 4. IW5K 5. malgato (3:30 - 5:30 PT) OR Open 6. Dumien OR Open Since Mal and I can't overlap, we will need at least one more. Will try LFG if all else fails. |

I am going to lift around 6pm, should be back around 7:30pmET ...I am good for two runs. As late as is needed. Put me down. We got to get our gear tonight, make it happen. CoD comes out next week.
Any word on what Xur may bring?

Any word on what Xur may bring? We can still do Raid Thurdays, I can use a break from getting BSed in CoD once in a while . Unless we can do 3 runs today, I would need another 1 or 2 on Sunday. Anybody interested? Nobody knows what Xur offers until 2am PT tomorrow morning, at which time I will be hunting his ass down around the Tower . The rumor mill "wishes" that he will sell Gallarjorn, THE best Rocket Launcher in the game. If that's indeed the case, VoG Hard = beaten, because a team of 6 all using this beast can one cycle the Atheon (so I was told by a party full of 30s last night). |

I have about sixty plus strange coins, so I am all over that. I'll break down the 'Truth' exotic launcher I got as a bonus then too (no need for it)
I didn't mean I will stop playing Destiny witty. I plan to keep playing. I was speaking more to my sanity. I really don't want to go 10, 11, 12+ straight raid runs without seeing a piece of raid gear. I think I will crack before then.

It will help tremendously when Destiny is no longer the only game you play. Once we have enough of AW we may very well feel Destiny is a great change of pace, and view it as "sanity saver" instead of "insanity inducer" |

Two great runs last night, got carried again, but feeling more confident about everything. I don't know about you guys, I like the new change of random teleporting. It makes things uncomfortably exciting Anybody knows how long each run takes? Who is up for another Raid on Sunday? I have the Oracle checkpoint. |

I'm done for the week, unless I get a third character going. Either way, i'll help you out. The Atheon part on both Raid's we did was hilariously fun. I thought the first raid attempt, we got screwed a fair amount with uncontrolled glitching, but our finish on attempt one was just hilariously funny. We had people all over the place, running into portals, out of portals, picking up relics, reviving people, and somehow we did it. But nothing was as fun and funny as Gorgon's maze. I nominated you Witty. I put this story up, in it's own post. You'll see it. The time? Second run was probably / slightly under an hour. The actual time was 1:12. But, we spent ten to fifteen minutes swapping out characters and doing that Oracle save point check. |

I broke down my Titan. Started a new Warlock today. If anyone wants to raid on Sunday, let me know. This new one can get a qualifying run in now

I took a break from my early morning weekly Tuesday raid. My friend should have an oracle hard mode checkpoint for me. I'm down for raiding with you guys.
At the very least this is what we should plan for...
Hard mode: oracle phase and templar phase rewards x3...
Normal mode: Complete raid x3...

I'm in for either tonight (after I finish nightfall) or Thursday. Ready for hard mode with my hunter, normal with my warlock. Still working on titan -- probably not going to hit 25 or 26 in time to do anything this week though.

I'm down, just about any evening/night/late night.
Never thought I would be saying that on the first week of a CoD game release :-(

I'd like to get in as much as humanly possible tonight as I'll be leaving for vacation Thursday which tends to be one of our main raid nights. 29 Titan needs the hard raid...27 Warlock and 26 Hunter are ready for normal raid. Should be ready to run probably any time after 5pm central.

I have 3 lvl 28 so need normal x3, Thursday, Saturday, or Sunday.
I can also do the hard raid up to the gate keeper. I am now able to jump up to the high ledge with Warlock during the Oracle phase, Hunter and Titan even less of a problem.
If Xur offers Warlock helm or gloves this weekend, I can have a lvl29 by Sunday.

I'm down for Thursday as well. Hopefully I can rack up some marks quickly and get my Titan up to 26 by then, but if not I'll just run through a second time with my Warlock for fun.
