Andrew 4721 Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Just now, Ant said: logged in after training last night and banged out the flashpoint and some faction rally stuff and logged off. That was my plan last night but training was my first session with a PT and I was incapable of coherent thought or movement. Rehearsals tonight as well, I've got too much shit to do to play my damn game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 I think we've finally got the raid done tonight. Although I might find another clan tbh, sick of being sidelined while inferior players get called up. Nightfall seemed pretty straightforward. I've tried it with one other guy and we got to the boss before being overwhelmed, so with a third person it should be a breeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 Well, our clan failed to complete it again last night, the clan leader has just told me that he's giving up on the whole thing, and everyone seems pissed at each other Fuckin' noobs...

Andrew 4721 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 DRAMA! You could do with a new clan from the sounds of it. are they at least managing to get some of the engrams for you each week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 Yeah they've got engrams each week for everything except the raid. I very much could do with a new clan. Problem is the leader is a guy I know personally He's not a leader, clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5186 Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) We could settle it in PVP. Show of strength, winner takes the clan Edited September 29, 2017 by Rayvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 I just told him He is raging. Apparently the core issue is that people are dying too much - and then I think they're wasting their revives bringing back inferior players. I think I'll just grab two other relatively competent people from the clan and do it guided - that way we can get it done on the clan's behalf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5186 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 nice one. Lemme know how you get on with it when you get to it. As I say, hopefully I'll be able to do it today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Yeah the queuing thing is mad. We finally finished it last night. I basically insisted I was on the team this time. Still look way longer than it should've because people are slow (similar to what you've just described). Still don't feel like I've totally done it though since I've not gone through front to back. Will try again next week. Tried the prestige nightfall as a 2 man team. Tough going... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Yeah I can see that being a problem with random groups. I've managed to persuade my lot to do a run this Saturday, front to back in one evening. Then at least I've got it done. On one character at least.

Also, presumably external support organisations may not be responsive during such hours, if something actually went wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 Ok so, I've reached 299 now. Our clan has completed the raid in 3 hours this week, so it seems they've settled on a capable team now. I've got a slot for a run on Saturday. Anyone done the nightfall this week yet?

Andrew 4721 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Some from my clan tried the nightfall last night but ran out of time a few times. We're having our first go at the raid tonight, which I'm looking forward to immensely, not expecting to get very far mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 I'm pretty sure a competent team can do it in a night Don't read anything into my clan's struggles. Tbf to them, as I said, their second run took them 3 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5186 Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 3 hours ago, Ant said: did the nightfall, it's harder this week time wise but you can max out the time easily enough, got through the normal version with about 4minutes left, the yellow bar ogres are a pain in the hole on 300 level almost did the prestige with two randomers who just did not push on quick enough, it's doable no doubt like with two better players though, we'd a third of a bar left on the boss when we ran outta time. i'm 302 nearly 303 now, still got the crucible and raid weekly stuff to do, that'll be tonight or sunday prob https://destinystatus.com/xbl/Ant LB3 Nice! I'm hoping to get over 300 this week tbh, especially with the Raid to complete and benefit from. I need a regular team for the Nightfalls I think - getting there with that though. I can't do them well with randoms, it's too hit and miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 Completed nightfall and am now 302. Had about 3 mins left at the end which was kinda annoying cos I still need the rat king done... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4721 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 We did ok on the raid, considering none of us had done it before we got through the standard bearers far better than I expected us to. The Garden defeated us however after a bunch of attempts, we were making progress but we were trying to do as much as possible without guides so overall I think we did quite well. By the end of that we had all 9 of our clan online so we decided to break up into three teams of three and race the nightfall since we didn't have the clan engram for it yet which was loads of fun.

Rayvin 5186 Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Sounds like a good evening! The garden and the final boss are the two rooms of the raid I've done. Not been online for completion of the other two bits. Garden is hard! In my case because half our team was incompetent How did you get on with the nightfall? Took us 4 attempts, although we would have managed it on the third if one of our number hasn't accidentally disconnected halfway through the boss fight.

I've not been playing this game as my sole focus which has improved it's longevity for me, but I do wonder what people are supposed to do once they hit 305. Start a new character I suppose. It's a good game but waiting 8 weeks for the next content drop is a bit of a killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 And you're right about pvp. There's no stake in it. It doesn't even really matter if you win or lose IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My team had two runs at it but it was completed by one of the other groups. Got my clan engram and went to bed then so the nightfall remains uncompleted by me this week at the moment.
