That strike was bad enough as a lvl 28 weekly....
I'll give it a go later...
If you can wait I get on I do it with you before the raid (if we are raiding tonight)

I just joined in time... that was lucky haha.
Get in! Nice work guys, must have been so boring for you, Levo!
Well done guys, fancy the daily and weekly?
Yeah, you can reach 29 without VoG though but 30 isn't possible.
By the way the Nightfall is easier to attempt solo rather than with a group. I had a go at it last night, spent over an hour getting to the very end... then on the very last stage where it said to let the Priest out of the cage thing, I went towards the cage to find that it was opening by itself, but realised too late, the Priest had already got out. I panicked, tried to get to the platform, failed and fecking died! Was absolutely gutted.
Haha, I saw there was barely any health left on him, so I was waiting under there until you joined again!
Another heavy weapon ffs... I've got like 6 legendary heavy weapons now, it's ridiculous.
ah, thanks!
I'm on from 5-6 tonight I think...
If only we could swap! I have no decent heavy weapons and literally 6 legendary sniper rifles.
Levo, what are we doing?
I'd be up for the raid aswell. Felxible time was aswell
I am up for raid anytime tonight
I cant get back in time for that, wont get back home till 8pm after the work and the Gym.
I dont think the Raid will kick off till 2030 when we are all there.
Right, good luck guys. Same strategy as last time.
what was that. Leave and rejoin each time we die?
Yeah.
Did you want me to come back and go fire team leader? That way I can go grab some tea while we go and fairly sure your weapon does more damage than mine
Same, I don't even finish work til 5.30. 8.30 is a more realistic time IMO.I cant get back in time for that, wont get back home till 8pm after the work and the Gym.

I still haven't managed to unlock Blink Strike, it's taking me ages! Hate using shotguns though, Scout Rifles do it for me! I do think BS will provide a difference so we will see how it goes once I've got it. Arc Blade is, indeed, very situational but it's just doing my head in how it can be countered much more easily than what Warlocks and Titans have got. Still love using it though, don't get me wrong.
I think I might just do that then. Will scroll through the pages and see who's left their ID. Mine is Arkenaw_13 if anyone wants to add me.
You've got the better set of weapons, got a shotgun which is of no use in this and an exotic. But looked at your character and think you've got the heavier punch, if your having dinner though we can swap.
Up to you.
We finally made it. Fairly sure I did like 50 times 
Excellent work guys!
Got the daily, weekly and nightfall done all at once, all on hardest difficulty Earned 16 strange coins today.

Done the daily and weekly. Now attempting the nightfallExcellent work guys!

Doing the weekly strike after the nightfall is crazy. It felt so easy in comparison! Thank God for that platform though, it would be impossible otherwise!

Boss #3: The Gorgon's Labyrinth
Seems hard to begin with but very easy if not getting chests. Watch this webm on doing it in 90 seconds:

Then the following webm will take you roughly to the throne room: http://a.pomf.se/xbdiei.webm
Boss #4: Atheon
Phase 1: Kill the Gatekeeper
Straightforward, kill the Vex that surround it then pick the Gatekeeper off. Can be done in a few minutes easily.
Phase 2: Collect the relics and defend the Conflux
All hell breaks through from here onwards. It combines aspects from what has been done previously. Heavily suggest picking a number 'G' to be, and stick with it. Try not to deviate from role as it'll be confusing as hell.
Getting the first relic
G1, G2 and G3 go in the left gate and while in there...
For G4, G5 and G6 (those at the sync plate)
the people outside MUST defend the sync plate and ensure that the Praetorians don't get control of the plate. If they do while the players are inside the timegate, they get stuck inside, become "Lost in Time" and everyone dies. Must stay open until the gate party exit.
For G1, G2 and G3 (those who enter the gate)
After killing the Gatekeeper and picking up the relic, these three need to exit as soon as possible from the same side of the gate. When they exit, they must stand still so the relic carrier can hold L1 and cleanse off the "Mark of the Void" debuff which is gained when relic becomes active in the Timegate. When the debuff comes off, the relic carrier and one of the other two in the trio need to go in the right gate.
Getting the second relic
G3, G6 - defend the conflux from the Minotaurs
G4, G5 - defend the other sync plate to ensure the Praetorians don't enter
G1, G2 - after entering the second gate, the carrier needs to launch super, making sure to hit boss in middle. Partner use rockets and grenades to kill off the rest and push Gatekeeper up hill. When screen starts to get dark, relic carrier uses L1 to cleanse then continue assault.
Once second relic is obtained, get out as safely as possible (if either is dropped, party is wiped out) and entire raid party should group up on conflux and dispatch enemies until phase is concluded.
Phase 3: Defeat Atheon
G4, G5, G6 - G4 and G5 ensure sync plates are activated, if they're not then G1, G2 and G3 could be stuck in a room. All three need to kill the Supplicants that Atheon generates (beware, Supplicants can self destruct).
G1, G2, G3 - Atheon teleports the three that are furthest back into one of the gates so make sure these 3 are on the platform furthest back so they will be teleported. As these 3 were the ones who teleported in phase 2, they should hopefully have the experience to know what to do on the other side. When in the room, spot the relic and pick it up as soon as possible then cleanse the party. Seven Oracles will spawn, take them out ASAP. When killing Oracles, be sure that you're moving towards the exit as once all Oracles are taken out, a debuff will be gained called "Time's Vengeance"
Everyone should be back in the Present. Everyone groups together as shown below:
The relic holder keeps hold of L1 for the entire duration of Time's Vengeance as it negates all incoming damage but allows outgoing damage to happen. Four of the remaining five attack Atheon with everything they've got, while the other cleans up the Harpies around the edges so that when shield is down, the sync gate players can safely return to their spots.
When the Time's Vengeance buff reads 0:02, G1, G2 and G3 return to the platform behind them (as shown in the first image) and when the buff wears off, Atheon will teleport those three to the opposite gate they were in before. Rinse and repeat until Atheon is dead.
Sounds confusing at first but if you read through and stick to specific role, it seems to be easier than first thought
Quoting the above again. We'll probably do phase 3 differently to how we did it last time depending on people's opinions on whether to try one of the methods posted on the last couple of pages in this thread. We need to agree on something before continuing the raid though.
Also, when we're doing the Labyrinth I suggest we get spotted deliberately once, and do our best to kill the Gorgon. If we kill a Gorgon, we get a Grimoire card apparently.
Anyone want to do the daily story or heoric strike?
nightfall anyone?
Just completed the nightfall
Tough
Tough
Solo or with others? I found it solid with others but much easier on my own... though I've still not completed it yet due to a mishap with the priest.
Trying to get 10 fusion rifles is annoying. Woke up this morning, for some reason thought I saw that the gunsmith had a blue fusion rifle, bought as many as I could then went to check progress of my bounty to find I was still on 0/10. Went back to see they were uncommon and not rare after all and me about 5-6k glimmer down. I'll pay more attention in future.
With two others. Got 10 ascendant energy ffs
Has anyone used the Bad Juju? If so is it any good?
I'd rather that than a legendary item which is all I seem to get from nightfalls.
Still looking for a legendary auto rifle. I need shards to increase my armour damage, is there a raid going tonight?
I won't be on for the next couple of nights, so you'll need a sub again.
I'll be on if there's one going
