My first Vault of Glass run we cheesed the Templar with the Warlock grenade trick.
My first Crota's end run we cheesed the 2nd bridge and pulled the ethernet cable on Crota.
It wasn't really by choice but just happened that way for me.
I think it would be fun going into the new Raid knowing anything about it and just see what happens.

[b]Edit 3: [/b]Thank you everyone for sharing your stories. I'm amazed that most people didn't cheese it for the first time. Now let's break out the crackers and spread the cheese while we reminisce about year 1 and anticipate year 2.

Not my first raid, no. I still didn't have the ideal 'blind' raid experience that everyone wishes they had. Four of us were fresh first timers, and two had completed it once before. So the two led the four, and it worked out surprisingly well. First Crota's end we did legit, but the primary 'leader' player was being a frustrated asshole when it came to sword-bearer, so I said -blam!- it and left. Next time through and every time since then we've cheesed. We don't cheese crota, just the bridge and the lamps. Though I have cheesed Crota to get flawless raider for some friends of mine. It's unfortunate I had to be the one to quit out, as I don't have the achievement to show for it. But, oh well. Maybe some day I'll get it legit.
