273 light so no raid for me yet. Will probably roll some strikes and may have some crucible.

If anyone wants to try the weekly mission, I'm game.

It's pretty good that a nightfall with solar burn falls on a week when a sunbreaker glitch is discovered that allows you to spam hammers. You can take the warmind down in one super

just read that there are no crucible bounties today so IB could be on, Saladfingers might just be running a bit late!
The last few haven't been announced at all - they literally just appear at 6 p.m. UK time. Speculation is that Bungie do this deliberately to stop people using the reset cheese. (if you're in orbit before 6 and then launch into the tower just after 6 your rank from last time is preserved and you can buy everything during that one visit).
Just popped on and there are new crucible bounties

Currently in Amsterdam visiting one of our vessels, but hopefully back later in the week to pick up where I left off.

I'm enjoying the new Strikes, some are quite lengthy and a bit of a challenge.

Single player content is a bit thin and the final part of the story (Regicide) was pish easy.

How did the raid go? I did the nightfall, weekly, weekly crucible, daily crucible and daily story last night.

I'm away all week now but might get a crack at the raid over the weekend.

There was only 5 in our team on the raid but after a few attempts on the first part did that and the next few bits. Then I found out we are only just entering the raid. HAHA I had to leave but have the checkpoint now. It's good fun.

Got past the first orbs but, then the jumping parts and next was oping the door checkpoint. Not sure how far in this is but i'm told it was a check point. the part where the Hive are praying or whatever

But you really need to work as a team to get through

There were invites flying everywhere last night, there wasn't quite enough people on for 2 teams.

We 5 manned it up to the first section with the totems and then Goatface joined us.

Took us a few attempts to get through this section, Goat had never been in there before so it took a while for him to get the jist of the mechanics. There was also some lag again in this section last night.

Got through to warpriest and managed to defeat him finally. For some reason we just weren't doing enough damage to him, even though we got the mechanics sussed.

Ran through to Golgaroth and left it there for the night.

Was good to see so many people on last night that we could get 2 raid attempts going..

None of our group, except for me , had done the first sections of the raid before so it took us a few attempts to get a good working mechanic going, but once we all knew what we were doing we handled the first room pretty well..

The jumping section was a riot!! I especially liked the part where irrotational got on to the last platform and then Promptly panicked and jumped off before reaching the end!!! Haven't laughed so hard in forever!!!

As renal said we got to totems and then people had to leave

Did manage to do the nightfall, got a chest of alpha lupi and a hawksaw.
Also irrotational and I did the sky burners chest,
I am amazed that destiny is now the game it should have been at launch..so much to do theres not enough time in the day

Cheeky couple of hours last night. My thanks to purple for allowing me to jump on the back end of his weekly mission.

Now 283, and would love a go at the nightfall or raid if there's ever any space.

the daily is lost to light again, as in the Black Spindle one.

Not clear yet if it's still dropping at 310. Some saying it is, some that it isn't

Yeah - it was kind of funny that we ended up with two groups of 5 for awhile :-)

The raid (just to get to the start) was good fun and everything I had hoped for.

I guess there have been a few comments about jumping so this isn't too spoilery...but I was about 2nd or 3rd to get across the jumping puzzle...except I assumed you had to make a giant jump at the end! So I took off thinking I could make it easily...missed the safe spot at the end by about 3 feet and managed to bang my forehead on the platform as I slowly warlock-glided out of view to my death and ignominy...

I then ended up last by quite a margin...

Regicide is by no means the end - I reckon the quests that get introduced afterwards make it just as long again!

yeah - Bungie have sort of talked about 3 "acts". Act 1 is the story up to regicide. Act 2 is longer but is the quest lines generally labelled "Taken War" which culminate in "the road to kings fall"...and then act 3 is the raid.

EDIT - it's Black Spindle day today by the way!!
