Have started playing this with my mates. Is fooking frustrating at times when your weapons do FA damage & you die from one hit. Am only level 27, am relying on my mates to carry me at times, not a big fan of this though. How do I get better armour/weaponry? Do I need to just keep grinding through?
Strikes, Crota and you will quickly get better guns and ammo. best done with mates as you found. I have a level 32 titan, 31 Warlock but my Hunter is only 13 so having mates help me through the basics to get to level 20 then I have lots of Legendary and Exotic armor to add to her

sorry for being so hopeless, I thought I'd just bag a spot and try to get some raid armour for the new character but at 28/29 I wasn't doing any damage at all to anything except slightly denting Crotas shield..... I also didn't get any raid armour and the only drop was another Hunger. Not disappointed with that but just not what I wanted.

I'll go down the vanguard route to 31 and maybe try hard once I'm there.

Crota wasn't being that bad we were just taking our time getting the swordbearer down and then getting to Crota which meant that by the time we were getting him down he was rotating (he follows a set timing)..... this may have been something to do with a certain 28 Hunter doing no damage to anything.... I should have really jumped out and grabbed a 32 but I wanted the armour that didn't drop!!

RE timings on Crota, familiarise yourselves with the numbers on this;

It starts when you leave the inner shrieker rooms.

Nice one on the Ghorn fatty
Simo - no bother at all about the Hunter - we're all in it together to try and get loot and get levelled up (to get even more loot!). It's a real shame that you got no armour at all, that must be pretty unusual!

I did wonder about the timings on Crota - but it didn't feel like we were taking *that* much longer than normal, I guess we must have been..

He definitely came out onto the "middle" platforms a lot more and was very close to wiping us out a couple of times.

What's your GT?

Get your vanguard rep up to 2 (through bounties and patrolling) and then buy the vanguard armour. Gets you to 31 when levelled up.

The nightfall and weeklys help, you should just be about able to get into them. Add a few off of here and I'm sure someone will take you through. It's pretty easy this week.

I would dearly love to get that achievement...but I can't bring myself to put 5 other people through the pain and frustration I would bring! :-)

Good luck!

You can download crota timers, yes he gets up and yes he sometimes teleports, chases you and his shield has a mind of it's own but he generally sticks to the pattern.

I'll make it up to you all if we do a few more runs later in the week. I'll bring a 32, sword bear and have him done before ogres!

Very scrappy on the nightfall lady night with just two of us for most of it. Sorry about that.

Oh, and I got distracted and sharded murmur by mistake....

If i'm on pirates of the carri...Assassin's creed and you need someone on Destiny, give me a shout, i'll happily jump across and do what ever. Just reached the point of getting bored with Destiny and only play it for the social aspect.

I still need to do it, but disenchanted with Destiny at the moment.

Do you need to do the whole raid at once? What happens if you lose connection and get booted to orbit at say the bridge?

Does anyone have any tips on what to do for Flawless? I don't want to ruin it for everyone else.

I secretly want a go but I'm really worried I'll die too much and piss everyone off!

1. Don't die
2. Shoot everything that looks remotely threatening
3. Don't die
4. Have a stable internet connection/stop any one else using the internet if you have to
5. Don't die
6. Fully understand the mechanics of the bridge section, there will be no cheesing
7. Don't die
8. Maxed out (331) weapons, extra points for raid weapons and Gjallahorn
9. Don't die
10. Keep your calm when/if someone dies. Everyone is under the same pressure, no point adding to it with frustration.
11. Don't die
12. Make sure your controller is fully charged or plugged in preferably smile

Think that's it. Did I mention don't die?
