So recently i heard some rather disturbing facts. 23% of people on these forums have beaten Crota's on hard.
This leaves a staggering 77% of people who i would not feel comfortable gaming with for end game content.
Not to mention those who haven't downed Skolas
I've been labeled an elitists before and probably will be labeled the same again but I'd rather winners had my back as opposed to well... Losers.
Therefore Laurea Prima will be my gold standard for this year.
Edit: Thanks for all the support. Laurea Prima will be the one downing Oryx first! See all you champions on the Dreadnaught!
Edit: I've had many the conversation about how people have dropped Skolas and they wonder if that qualifies. In my eyes yes. Skolas is the most recent test of skill and therefore a good measurement.
Edit: You don't have to wear the badge to be Fireteam material. Just have it.
Edit: According to all those out there who "just dont care" to fight the bosses. In your world Skolas breaks free. Crota destroys the Earth, or Atheon rips the timeline in half. Why even play then?
Edit: This is not directed at those just picking up the game, as pointed out in the post, I'm disappointed by Year Ones and the general lack of motivation.
Edit: I was asked for an image of the emblem. [url=http://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1179/11799911/2900285-emblem.jpg][/url] There it is in all it's glory.

With that said anyone with said emblem to prove your competence in PvE activities wanna join my raid team for King's Fall? Need 2. XBone.
-
That many haven't even beat Crota hard? How???
-
There should be a Laurea Prima clan.
-
Mmmm kind of understand your point, I personally play with anyone however my best experiences are with experienced players
-
So my glowhoo and vex mean nothing? Ok then.
-
You're not an elitist; you're a douche

-
I dunno. One team I was part of beat Skolas after 3 hours of attempts. I don't take that as proof of being "good". Rather, Skolas can kill us any number of times, but we only had to kill him once to get that emblem. This whole us and them mentality is just lazy. If you are good enough you can shoulder your way through a less than stellar team. No Gjallerhorn, no problem. No Emblem, no problem.
-
I don't have a mic (well, I have a broken one), so I've never done Skolas. I know there are people who've done it without mics using emotes as signals for the Essence, but every time I tell someone on LFG I have no mic, I get insta-booted. So I haven't done Skolas. I don't mind not playing King's Fall with you, though, so I'm intact.
-
I agree with you to an extent. I would like to raid with others that have raided multiple times before I take on the King. After a few run throughs, I won't care who I am running with. They just have to be willing to go all the way with it.
-
I would like people to have Laurea Prima as well, unless they just bought the game.
-
Just remember, people excluding other people for not having something is why Gjallahorn got nerfed.
-
Remember: that number includes all the people who [i]tried[/i] the game even once and may not even own it. So more than 23% of the [i]active[/i] destiny players may have completed it
-
Same here! It's not an elitist thing, it's a I want to run with people who I know for a fact have raid experience
-
Those numbers are off. They are from the Trophy % numbers and take into account anyone who ever played a minute of Destiny. Look at some of the trophy percentages for the easy ones that anyone who even casually plays destiny would get; they are below 50%. Most of the people in those numbers never really played destiny
-
I predicted this would happen as soon as the MOT emblem was announced, I mean don't get me wrong I have the triumphs done, but it's been my experience gamers that exclude others for whatever reason are zero fun to play with........
-
Op keeps insulting people's comments saying what they haven't completed, I have come to the conclusion that op is a pathetic loser
-
I helped a bunch of my clanmates finish all of their moments of triumph. We'll be rolling through kings fall rocking that emblem for sure. (Can't wait for my black sparrow though)
-
-
TTK isn't even here yet and I'm already muting elitists like yourself. And if you're going to start throwing statistics around, you may want to add a footnote where you got the raw data in calculating said percentages. Remember that 73% of all statistics found on the internet is made up.
-
Didn't buy the Dark Below, guess I'm not "skilled".
-
Edited by Andy: 9/11/2015 7:03:33 PMhow stupid. no one cares. also calling people losers just because they haven't beat crota makes you a loser and a dumbass. have a nice day :)
-
Thank god, shitty players like you will always require Gjally, flawless emblem, MoT or something else, to make them feel better! Easy to spot the losers!
-
i completed all raids. however i didnt complete the moments of triumph. i'm going to wear my sign of the elders instead.
-
Laurea Prima is your standard? Bahahahhahahahahah
-
Laura Prima fo sho! GET THOSE RAIDS DONE PEOPLE!!!
