Good effort.
It's the inconsistencies in Crota's behaviour that makes it so hard. If I (or whoever wasn't swordbearing) had a Gjallarhorn, we'd walk it as a duo. Trying the blackhammer/truth/gjalla route to down him, there's too many variables. I've no doubt it's possible if he reacted the same way to same damage every time.
I agree - it was trying to co-ordinate/time the various weapons that proved so tricky...I was hoping you might get a gjallahorn from your nightfall today in time for our 2 man raid next week - maybe Xur will help us out?! biggrin

I've got a few more videos saved of various shenanigans to upload at some point this week, including another 'leave no man behind and kill everything' lamps effort.

Sadly not. I'll have to try and crota/vog both characters this weekend to increase chances.

Oh, and here's another example of what a plum I am. I was using this badboy for about 90% of the raid yesterday, as I forgot to switch back. In my defence, it does look awfully similar to my crypt dweller.

After 'no burn' Omnigul, you think they'd give us a break..........but no. Be careful out there, this week's a toughie.

Our mission last night was to kill Sepiks quicker than you guys did. I wasn't sure we would do it because a) there were only two of us and b) Neither my sniper nor my HMG are fully upgraded....

However, one of us was Kaney - so that helped alot!! biggrin

I've tried to watch the videos side by side and, I think we got it by a whisker!! thumbup

Had a really fun night running the raid on normal a couple of times - I think the second time we completed it as a team of 4. Heven't checked last nights video yet (I need to find the part where Singh fell down a hole....again!!)) hehe but, here is an example of one of our lamp runs from late last week, it was awesome shoot :-

Singh, I think the reason the ads kept spawing last night is because Jas joined us and his orb spawned at the start, I think they keep spawning until everyone is over, as theory we shall have to test.

laugh and nice vids chaps.

Well, I got screwed by the (very quick!) Nightfalls and Crota runs:-

- 12 shards
- New Monarchy Sniper Rifle (crap perks)
- Payback SoS
- Plan C
- No Land Beyond- my 3rd one in the last 7 days. frown

That makes sense. There must have been 20+ Ogres. shoot

If only raids gave XP! smile

Also, I can't believe Kaney got ANOTHER G-horn. 4 in total, and so I think he sharded it. I'd love another one!

Ah yes, the rewards. Nightfall got me:-

- Mask of the Third Man (happy with this, Baby Hunter needed her own)
- Some legendary void sniper or other which will never be as awesome as Praedyth's Revenge!
- 8 x Ascendant Shards...GET IN!! biggrin

Nightfall gave me Young Ahamkara's Spine gaunlets and that was it.
Everyone got one single exotic and that was it.

Well, Stimpy dropped in on our first run (which was his second) and, unbelievably he got another Hawkmoon!! TO say that Kaney was gutted would be a MASSIVE understatement!! hehe

Only did one nightfall

Energies Woohoo

2 x Crota Raids

1 x boot
1 x Gloves

Shards and Energies

Not my night I guess.

On a positive my hunter is so close to level 20 so Nightfalls and Raids are almost within touch.

Two Hawkmoons in the space of 20 minutes. Gotta love how random this game is sometimes.

Just watched this properly. Excellent stuff. 2 things though:-

1. I really do leave you lot from lamp to lamp hehe

2. There's a bit where you get mele'd on the plate from the left. You turn and nova-bomb without looking to see what it is. What it is... is a solitary thrall. Poor thrall. #overkill hehe
