Cheers and thanks for the offer of assistance - I'll be on a little after 12 today so if you are still about then I'll send you (and Youngsyr if you're on) a message and hopefully smash Xyor biggrin
Cool smile I think I'm only on until one but should be doable smile

There is a desire to do some PvE, but PoE isn't as much fun as a 6-man raid.
True but, the Skolas fight is loads of fun now. Much more fun than anything else that the House of Wolves has to offer (for me at least). If only there were more people willing to do it!!

The existing raids are too easy now. I hadn't logged off, I saw you guys in there, with some guy named '2DAMGUDFORYOU' or some such ridiculous name (I'm guessing he was about 13?) Could have sworn you had a fireteam of 6, or else I would have joined in...

We 4 manned Crota hard on Sunday afternoon (as nobody was willing to do lvl 35 PoE with me and Gazza) and, it was laughably easy. PoE is really all that there is for me to do tbh, apart from leveling up Baby Titan, who incidentally has the same dance as Baby Hunter (may she rest in peace!)

I'm up for as many 34 PoE's as you like, and maybe if brave enough 35's, I just feel that I would spend more time dead than alive at 35 though...

Oh, you saw that. hehe

Yep, a kid from Jase's friend list joined and then another kid from his friend's list joined at the Gorgon checkpoint. We decided to have some fun with them after we gave them the chest. It was clear from their bad (blue!) gear and lack of knowledge that they hadn't been into the VoG before so we gestured for them to venture into the Gorgon's lair. It didn't end well. hehe

Always happy to show anybody new the ropes but they were annoying- continually trying to mele us, shooting just past the Gorgons etc. Just being kids I suppose. They were booted when we were ready to go through properly. I felt bad but we didn't have all night.

You should have jumped into the party chat. We would have booted them immediately... having one person manning the portals at Atheon wasn't fun. smile

Being a badass motherfcensoredker, I can't remember the last time I lost a portal at Atheon - how do you do it (besides dying) when there aren't any Praetorians?

Happy to do PoE 34 and 35 as well as VoG, I have done PoE 28 and 32 without any problem and VoG On hard right up to Atheon (it was 3am and I had to drive to Le Mans at 4am hehe).

I also need to do the Crota one as well!

34 Hunter

Also just "found" plan C in the Cruicible before it went down for maintenance, it looks like it could be quite good.

Once again all weekend, trials meant there was hardly anyone interested in doing level 35 PoE, with everyone splintered off in their own little groups and party chats. Lots of assurances during the week from people supposedly keen to do a level 35, followed by a distinct lack of enthusiasm when the time came.

It's all starting to get very annoying.
I spent half an hour doing trials, still don't enjoy it very much (largely on account of not being very good at it!) If you see me online and fancy hitting 34 or 35 PoE, just give me a shout Speck, I can all but guarantee I'd be game.

Besides, I owe you for last week - you promised me I'd finally get a Vision of Confluence from Vault of Glass, and you were right. Without that cast-iron Speckle guarantee, I doubt it would have happened smile

Anyway, with the servers currently down I'm going to pick up the Vita and finish season one of The Walking Dead, then make a start on The Wolf Among us. Destiny is such a time-hog, I've got loads of really good games I haven't even touched yet.

Will do mate smile

Been levelling up Baby Titan a bit and quite enjoying running the missions at the appropriate level. Did the Sepiks strike this morning and it was really good fun and quite a challenge! Really enjoying the Titan so far, I do so love punching things in the face punch

I'm only a 33 so a 35 PoE is out, but would like to run another 34 post reset (so from now on then). I need the etheric light to get to 34 assuming that Varkis sells the chest plate or helmet this week that is smile

Made a mistake though, I should have bought the gloves last week in order to be able to make a 34 build this week albeit not an ideal one. This would have at least opened up 35 PoE.

Ah well, I'm going in to see what Varkis is selling and to grab the first CE chest (yep, still need those energies) and will be around a bit later for a NF, etc

cry Dammit, I need legs! I'll never get to 34...

Edit: But I could use my armor core from 32 PoE last week to get it for my Hunter so she's a 33. Thoughts?

Edit 2: But my Hunter is going to drop anyway as I will swap my Vendor 36 light boots for the VoG boots with extra heavy which I'll need an Etheric Light to get back up to 36. It's all too confusing. If I have two 33s I'll have two viable characters for PoE 34 at least which will help me rack up the Etheric Light.

You can get carried through 34 as a 32, do that twice.

As I understand it, any already maxed ascendable armour + 1 etheric light = 42 light level armour in one step

Varriks' armour rolls are all pretty good this week, I'll be picking up one of each. I likely won't be on much tonight but will be about the rest mof the week and am more than happy to run PoE 32s 34s (and maybe even break my 35 virginity) as well as run VoG, Crota, NF as normal. I've done quite a lot of Vog in the last month and I still think that a full six-man run is the best thing in the game, even as arguably outdated as a level 30 activity is. I still don't have a chatterwhite shader either, and they're supposed to be common as muck!
