Still can't beat crota in hard mode
First edit: thanks to all the Guardians who send their support, strategies and tips. For the post that I've been reading, must confess that was expecting a lot more of "stop whining, not for noobs" and things like that. I'm really glad that a lot of you have give me your support! This community it's not so lost that everybody says! Thanks a lot to everyone!
2nd: stop telling me to change my fire team! If I'll do it, I'll doit with my friends! We're a team, a brotherhood. Not going to change them over a shader and a gun :)
Hi Guardians! As you read at the title (yes, after 3 weeks) me and my fire team are still trying to beat crota in hard mode. I'm starting to think that it's one of those things that you want to do for several time and one day just come up at the first try and no effort.. It's really frustrating to be every day at night trying and trying to beat him with no results at all further than a "ahhhh we almost did it, was so clooose! Look 1 sword away..."
We try everything. From below the right tower, from the outside of the crystal, putting bubbles at the Knights, putting the bubble in one side of the platform where crota is, filling the floor of light orbes, don't know what else.
We do it fine, we destroy his shield in a second, no problem at all, but something happens always. One die at the ogres, sword bearer get caught by crota when escaping, and other times others thinga happen... The sword can't be picked, the sword dissappear when dropped by the mob or worst when trying to hit crota and he raises right after he knees, the shield has been taken and he doesn't knee but hit the sword bearer, and of course lag.
Of course, sometimes one of us dies because a mistake, but trying several times and lose because of a bug it's frustrating as hell..
Of course a lot killed him with all of this problems too, but we just can't yet.
I'm not whining at all, just sharing my frustration with you and I hope you feel a little sympathy for me and this that cost hours every day to each one of us.
Love this game, and my fire team and I will not quit on taking down crota no matter what!

Once you've completed it with a good team, you'll understand that even having one guy on your team that just keeps making bonehead decisions can really hold you back. I've got a group that I run the raid with and we knock him down usually within 2 or 3 attempts. However, replace even one of us with a bonehead and it easily can take 6 to 10 attempts to beat Crota. Honestly, you hope that the bonehead goes down at the crystal room because its easier to compensate for being a man down than to get caught out of position when he decides to run out of his way into a crowd of thralls for that one heavy ammo pack on the ground while everyone is racing to the Ogre room. Good luck with getting your group up to speed. I hope that it works out for you.
