Evilhomer - just message people when you're on. Quite a few people here are on most nights.

I am kicking myself a bit for not persevering with IB. The buff went up to 150 per cent and I reckon I *might* just have got boots and gloves...but had a lot of fun playing with everyone else instead so it's fine smile

Glad the raid went well last night and more armour was dropping. I'd love to know what the drop rates are and if they'll change them over time...

I'm really hoping DLC raid is 28 and 32 and the 28 raid helps you get 30 or even 31 gear...I'm sure 32 gear will be locked behind RNG again

I do admit that I did cringe ever so slightly when Fugitive was complaining that he was tired of being a level 29 'for a whole 2 weeks' biggrin

I thought Gav and Innocent managed to keep their cool quite well at that point......
Lol! Oops. smile it must be tough...

I've read comments on other forums of 20 plus raid clears, with some hard clears as well and not getting a single item of armour frown

Managed to do the nightfall solo last night, by christ those shielded knights are a pain in the arse. I only had to self resurrect 5 times. hehe

Saving grace was my fully upgraded void rocket launcher that would remove the shield of most enemies and leave them vulnerable.

Finally upgraded my armour enough to get to 29 last night.

We did well on the hard raid last night.

We managed to get the confluxes done after quite a few wipes. There was only dalzo and innocent left at the end of the third wave and it was really tense watching them scramble for cover to survive the last wave of fanatics.

Gorgons was done on our first run though.

We're still at the gatekeepers. We had a few shots at it and didnt do too badly, but it was getting late at this point. We'll reconvene again to hopefully finish it. It took about two hours to get to this point.

Well done chaps. I think that conflux section tested us to the limit.

No loot to write home about. A ton of shards as usual. The nightfall gave me another 10 straight after too.......

Praise RNGesus! I only got a legendary shotgun, with elemental damage that I already have with another shotgun. So that went to pieces.

I'll do the daily & weekly heroic tonight with a few daily events thrown in and that'll earn me another 9 coins for xur and hopefully some shards and energy. If Xur has icebreaker this week I'll do a backflip and post it on youtube*

'* No I won't'

I got shards, energy, Boots (that i already had) and Thunderlord (which i already had) so bit disappointing for me.. Then again, cant say i blame RNGesus for giving all that to me, i played like a one legged, blind donkey on crack!!
And when i fell out of the hidey hole and couldn't get back in and got r*ped by two harpies, i VERY VERY nearly threw my controller through my Telly!!! Had to apologise to the guys for nearly cocking that run up!!
Although after that i thought we all got it together, the oracles was a Piece of P*ss from up on the ledge, and well the least we say about the Templar the better smilebut lets just say he would have looked Lovely on a nice slice of Toast, all melted and gooey!! yummmm!

Oh yeah i stayed on to rid some of my RNGesus rage, did a few bounties, so now i have a fully maxed Preadyths revenge, so the gatekeeper and atheon on Thursday Night better watch the F*ck out cause i'm coming for the loot i need.

Well done chaps!

We attempted nightfall...got one unfortunate wipe...tried again and had phogotphogoth down to minimal health.

Two of us died third still up no problem...but then we were randomly booted to orbit!!

I think everyone was too pissed off to try again!

Did the weekly instead to pickup the strange coins. No exciting loot.

That happened to me last week, 2 died and were booted to come back in, then I was randomly booted to orbit.

I don't even think it was a boot, we got sent to the same screen you get when you wipe, but I was wandering around with full health in a safe spot. Really pissed so just didnt want to go through it again.
We got him on the Weekly though, Atheons Epilogue got shelved in that though, it's not much use when void damage isn't needed frown

I'm guessing the safe spot is the room before the one with the shreiker?

If you move too far back the way you came in, it will wipe you if the other two players are down. I've done the same thing myself.

What you also need to do is make sure everyone has got close to the door. I had the the last guardian standing warning last night when there were two of us alive. It was because not all three of us had entered the main room.

Also I still think we don't have enough people for 2 raid groups, it's almost there, if everyone said yes we would have had 4 people maybe 5 if someone (forgot who) didn't have to go.

We need to recruit more smile
