A good raid that took a while to get down to a science?

Thanks for the raid assist wings when our 6th's internet conked out. Our record is 46 minutes this week. Thank you for having me. I'm running tonight with most of the people I ran every week during King's Fall as we're going for monitors, so the extra experience from playing with your crew will pay off. The raid gave me a few heavies, amongst other stuff like the scout rifle, and Iron Banner gave me two rocket launchers so I can increase the attack value of the Sleeper and Gjallarhorn, so I can use them at the start of the raid again and not lose out on too much DPS.

I feel dirty about this, but I never finished the quest to get the Sleeper Simulant... Or any of the exotic swords!

Minor raid spoilers in this post You are more than welcome. We only wiped once during the first raid, right? I really had a blast this morning. I tried some off the wall plans with each of my toons. With my hunter I tried using the Shotgun for Final DPS while using the Ghorn early. I usually cannon so I asked Cha if he would Cannon so I could make use of all my ammo. One of the most interesting things about this raid is the fact that more ammo drops than you can use. I usually ended my DPS phases with no heavy, but still a good deal of sniper ammo. I got the trials shotgun which has good impact AND full auto so I decided to put that to use for the whole raid. I had a great deal of success and I noticed that my DPS was on par with our lowest damage cannon user (Wings). xboxdvr.com/gamer/Post%20IXI%20Mortem/video/22303724I repeated this on my warlock and titan. On my warlock I think I figured out the perfect recipe for maximum viking funeral damage. I toss a grenade at 2nd DPS location and pop super right as he teleports for the 3rd DPS location. We almost 2 cycled the final boss with this pla! We just needed a nighthawk lolol. Here I was super agressive with the shotgun...making sure I never had any ammo left over. On my Titan I was able to use hammerbro and apply melting point on the second phase because melting point doesn't stack with nightstalker bow debuff. I also tried hammer charge with hilarious but uneffective results (after unloading gally shots) xboxdvr.com/gamer/Post%20IXI%20Mortem/video/22303658

Dumien we've been using snipers with Darkdrinkers. Personally I've been using a Tamar-D w/Surplus and Memory of Radegast (for that 89 sword ammo). We would have two phased today but our Titan accidentally had on blessing.
That shotgun was interesting, I didn't realize it would do that much damage.

Shotgun at boss? do you jump up to hit his head or what?
Cant really imagine it is better than a sniper to be honest. It is great for the captains though.

The team that just one cycled aksis were using x4 darkdrinkers and x2 black spindle. I am definitely going to infuse a dark drinker up to test it out next week. I'm stealing that Rhadegast idea. That is absolutely brilliant.
I was surprised by the shotgun as well... The fact it has full auto means I get to outdamage my strongest sniper. I also get to make maximum use out of all that special ammo around the map.

Hmm, but the reloading on that shotgun must be horrible right....
Yeah dark drinker is awesome in the raid. What is with the Rhadegast? The extra ammo? Or do they actually reflect anything? Saw the post at reddit but can't/won't watch video's at work.

There's plenty of heavy laying around as well with the raid gauntlets, particularly if you don't wipe from the previous phase. Also, so many orbs. Do you guys tether the shanks in the previous phase that come from the ceiling? Just put a tether above the boss to catch them right as they come out. You can tether twice per wave, and have a defender titan shoot them with an LMG for maximum orbs.

You are more than welcome. We only wiped once during the first raid, right? Yes. I usually run Hunter so I'll be more prone to a mistake using Warlock or Titan. Going to look into a Viking Funeral build because I think using a Nova Bomb on captains at Aksis is a waste now that I am 380+.

They are so good that they even work on Taken Fallen and the ground mines in Prison/Challenge of Elders. Twice I had a single heavy brick drop from destroying the ground mines before it releases the device to deploy the area of effect to slow you down and hurt you.

Going to look into a Viking Funeral build because I think using a Nova Bomb on captains at Aksis is a waste now that I am 380+. For Aksis, you want people who can consistently drop orbs in the center, both because it's easier for everyone to pick up, and the enemies are more grouped up. Tether, Defender+Iron Harvest+LMG, or Voidwalker+Obsidian Mind. You're right it's a waste to use Nova Bomb on the captains, but if you're creating orbs one Sunsinger with Viking Funeral can have enough grenades to cover the entire damage phase.

Does the glitch where if you get rid of all your primary ammo, enemies all drop heavy upon death still exist? And can you still get rid of your primary through equipping a weapon while deleting it to have that permanently?

Also I've found that shooting the ceiling just in front of the boss (closer to the entrance) will make sure the shanks get tethered so they all drop their heavy ammo right where everyone can get to it easily.

Well to be honest, I only browse message boards at work and therefore I will rarely watch vids. But I will try to remember when I am on the toilet I guess ^_^

In anticipation of next week, I plan on leaving a rank up package at Crucible, Vanguard, and Faction; edging each of them; holding on to my Shaxx and Trials Gold tier bounties; and saving my exotic engrams. Anything I'm forgetting?

Yes, just you need to do it in-game. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaht? Anything else this applies to? SIVA offerings, Splicer Keys and Splicer Intel Relays. Edit: Think of Skeleton Keys as Treasure Keys from House of Wolves. Neither could be transferred between characters and both had a maximum stack of five. So if you want more Skeleton Keys, put a stack of five in your vault and try to make a stack of five keys on each character.

I just thought because you couldn't transfer via the app, that they were character bound... that's all

There was a glitch first week which allowed you to open a chest and transfer the key to the vault at the same time, giving you essentially unlimited keys. That is probably why it doesn't work via app anymore.

Wanted to finally do my 10 strikes and 10 crucible wins last night to get my exotic dead orbit bond done. Thought I'd do the Shaxx bounty at the same time
10 strikes.... smooth, like buddah. Had a Leroy Jenkins who enjoyed dying 5/6/7 times per strike, but whatevz. I got it done and a crapton of engrams, one that popped into a 386 thunderlord
1st 8 crucible wins... I played like crap but we won. But I couldn't kill a damn thing... I had 25 assists midway through my second game. Got abilities kills, but not primary.
Next 15 crucible matches... no wins, but I was getting primary kills. Completed the shaxx bounty, with piss poor rewards. We blew so many leads and wins, it wasn't even funny. I don't know what to say... it was bad and why I don't PVP anymore. Started to get really sick of clash, so I needed a break. And again, trying to kill 2 birds wth one stone, I went to supremacy because I needed wins, and hey, since IB didn't count for the book, let's get some supremecy wins and get this done. Worst decision ever: it was like IB but without any form of decent rewards AT ALL. Just a bunch of blinking hunters and warlocks with shotguns.
Went back to clash (I think... by now, it was 1:30ish and I was tired) and I got 2 quick wins. Almost blew the last one too, but in the end, it was done.
Now, here's the stupid thing... and again, I might be wrong, because I was tired as crap by this point... but I had a DO package waiting for me too, and when I got the bond, I think I lost that package.
Whatever...
