I'm up for it, 29 Titan. Maxxed my raid weapons last night except for the raid fusion that still needs some exp for the last 3 circles

Could bring Warlock instead, it finally got fireborn! He's 29 too, havent tried the glitch yet
 
Although you haven't tried it yet, do you know how the glitch works? Its pretty simple. Bring whatever you're comfortable with. Either'll probably do

Yeah you just switch fireborn on and off or something as far as I can remember? Hopefully with Titan and a bubble I shouldnt need to die in the first place :p

Yeah, when dead change fireborn to the first circle option of that branch then revive and switch back to fireborn and you'll keep your super.

Yeah Titan bubble should be fine!
 
Well its always nice to have extra chests so I hope that part is right

Would be strange that others havent found it before...
Yeah, it does seem odd that there's no video yet, but there definitely looks like there should be another chest at that jumping puzzle. We'll see, maybe it requires some combination of criteria that nobody has stumbled upon yet.
 
Confirmed in:
Damien (29 Sunsinger Warlock)
afro (30 Sunsinger Warlock)
Ekeke (29 Titan)

@NinjaFletch do you want to give it a go? Will still need 2 more but should hopefully be easier to get. afro/Ekeke can be fireteam leader whenever we decide to start

Yeah, go on. I need to go to the gym but should be around at half past 8?
 
See, I have a maxed out Suros Regime which does the business for me in both PVE and PVP...trouble is my secondary and special weapons are atrocious.

For specials I have:
- Lots of blues
- Patience and time sniper - Can't be bothered levelling it because arc damage, and because I don't want to displace my Suros for it.
- An exotic invective shotgun (considering shotguns are useless end game PVE forget about it)
- A legendary shotgun (see above, only use or PVP)
- A legendary solar pulse rifle, cant be bothered leveling because solar damage.

For heavy I have absolute shite. Just a bunch of blues, no legendaries or above.

I hope Xur gives me something worthwhile tomorrow!

Hate that shotguns and close range fighting in general are so terrible in harder content (they have to put crap like lightswitch in just to make it even more suicidal too).
Really not a fan of sniper rifles so its a bit crap that the strat for basically every piece of difficult content in the game is get sniper rifle and find a corner to hide in.

Im in a similar situation to you anyway. Was going to try pug it tonight.
No void weapons though except a truth rocket launcher i got from nightfall this week and a shotgun
 
Yeah I'd prefer if they nerfed snipers somehow, because there's almost no part of the raid where I'd prefer a shotgun over a sniper. I used to think defending the plate from praetorians, but you can get a closer range scope for the Epitaph sniper, so I'd probably use my void version of that over a shotgun.

Datto from Primeguard always uses a shotgun on the Atheon hard mode fight to break the detains quickly. Other than that I can't see anywhere...

Praetorian Foil/fusion rifle from the raid is supposed to one shot oracles with its fusion charge if you know what I mean. I just got mine fully levelled so I can try it out soon. If that does work I guess I'll be using that on every Atheon fight

Yeah i think its kind of necessary tbh (nerfing snipers).
They just leave the damage of absolutely everything in the dirt - supers, heavy weapons, everything.
Like i've used shotguns against tiger strike bosses for shits and giggles and if you get a pointblank headshot hitting with every pellet (outer ones are bloody tough to hit with) you'll hit for 1400.
Think that was with the punisher or comedian shotguns so high impact ones on top of that.
Then i switch to my ice breaker that has 2 less upgrades and i hit for 2400 ... and i can stand about 3 rooms back while using it.

Anyway, ive been using my pocket infinity recently. Still a long way short of a sniper damage but it works and isn't quite as suicidal as trying to stab devil tanks to death.

I'd probably nerf boss health by the same amount as sniper damage actually because most take too damn long with other weapons anyway.
 
The bit that gets me about snipers and I remember bringing this up earlier in the thread...

Who decided that snipers were going to be the best way to take out all the tank enemies in this game? I get that they wanted one small weak part on the tank guy so that he feels almost invincible, but some careful attacks in the right area can take him down. But we could have shot a rocket at it?

Instead things like the devil tank take more damage from sniper shots on joints in the legs and then more damage snipering the orange core thingy. And the guy on mars in a tank takes more damage on his little wheel plate thingies you can blow off from snipers too.
 
So any more in for trying the hard raid tonight? 3 so far with 1x 30. We'll need something like 1 more 30 and 2 more 29s
 
Hang on I've got one patrol mission left for a bounty that should level gjallarhorn.
 
Sooooo... whats happening here then?

Welp we have 3 x 29s, and yourself as a 30. Now we need to find at least 1 more 30 somewhere and finish the group with a 30 or 29

And we need to do that fairly soon

I'm looking on some sites but dont have anybody yet
