Last night and afternoon, I was trying pick up groups to kill Oryx only. 5 Groups later... and several hours of frustration... We killed it. 6 Random people, no one knew each other, we did what many think impossible. I'm not saying we're the first group of randoms... but this gave us all hope and joy that we could do it again.
I'm not bragging nor am I here to be elitist... we weren't. We had people who were 292-296 Light level using a bunch of different weapons and specs.
What I am saying, is Don't Give UP. This Raid is doable, as is Oryx. It takes practice, Pattern recognition, teamwork and above all else COMMUNICATION.
Don't Give up, you can do this. Get out there Guardians!

All the best.
Edited: Removed "Pug"

Congrats, quite the accomplishment!
-
The raid is easy with people who know how to do it and don't lie about knowing how
-
Beat it multiple times, used lfg everytime. If you can't beat the raid with randoms then you probably aren't as good at the raid as you thought. It isn't hard to explain relatively simple mechanics to people
-
We did it with 3 others who apparently have run Crota as much as i have. Swordbearer was beasting 4 hits a knee.
-
Congrats, I also defeated Oryx with randoms last night. Good luck guardians.
-
Lmfao, I've killed oryx 6 times now and all have been with randoms.
-
U removed a pug?[spoiler]reported[/spoiler]
-
did it today first try with a lfg-group 293-297 ... it's possible .. communication is the thing
-
I did it with all randoms from lfg with a 290 guy who was also high at the time. Took us about 3 hrs
-
Lol beat him three times with different ransoms each time
-
I did it with complete randoms on our third try. So I agree keep looking

Edited by Shwartznwalder: 9/27/2015 11:10:50 PMI've done that a few times already with my raid academy. I even take people who are only 290. Imagine that! https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/156187005/0/0

I had the exact same thing happen to me!
-
My first finish this raid is with randoms
-
Is oryx doable without a sniper ?
-
Killed oryx twice with randoms. First time got my raid team but I liked to help some others get it done. Not too hard.
-
That's how I find my raid groups tbh
-
4 full clears with randoms. It isn't that hard if everyone listens and pulls their own weight.
-
Beat king's fall all the way through with a pug group on Monday. Took about an hour and a half. It's crazy what happens when you get a relaxed but focused group that knows what to do.
-
No ones saying randoms can't do it, it's just less likely that you'll find a group that has good communication.
-
Just did it with 6 randoms today
-
I'm still trying to beat oryx. Everything else went smoothly, but I can't find a solid team for oryx
-
You just did oryx get 6 randoms and make it through the whole raid then brag.
-
My first completion: all 6 were random first timers Second completion: 4 f randomirst timers Third completion: 2 random first timers Only sxrubs ask for "must have done it befoe"
-
How can a dog beat oryx?
-
6 pugs slaying the Taken King? That sounds adorable.
