After countless failed raids with random lfg teams i thought it might be useful to devise a formula for figuring out whether a player should be added to your fireteam.
Since the formula has been created i have used it to determine who is suitable for my raid teams with a accuracy of 82%.
If the players grimiore score is less than 2500 than they are not experienced enough to handle themselves in a raid.
Simple game logic for destiny dictates that any player below 32 is a burden and will increase the time taken to complete a raid if at all. These players are looking to weigh down your team and expect you to carry them through.
For an added challenge bring along a warlock or three. Bungie gave them the self res to balance the squishiness of the class. Any suggestion that they make more orbs is a way for them to weasle their way into your raid team.
Gjallarhorns! You cant have to many. Players with this weapon are more likely to be experienced as the low drop rate of this weapon have forced many players to grind for it allowing them to become proficient at clearing stages.
Lfg posts. If an lfg post contains all of these phrases. Serious, quick run or 32s only, then you know that these players are professionals that want to succeed and not waste 5 hours of your time only to troll you
(grimiore score x level) + (possession of gjallahorn - warlock value) = experienced player.
Gjallahorn value = 50000
No gjallahorn = 0
Warlock value = 20000
Ideally you want a player score of 130000 or higher to be an experienced player.
Using this formula to pick my last 3 raid teams i have had the quickest runs so far.
