So about 11AM on Saturday morning I decided that it was finally time to beat Oryx on hard and get my very last calcified fragment. I was determined and I hit LFG to find equally determined guardians with the same goal. At 5:30PM that night my dream had still not come to fruition. Half a dozen times the team i was with got to the 12th orb and would have an issue and fail... that was on us, that was our bad and though tough to swallow, only determined our resolve to get this challenge beat. Two - three times though, we got all our Orbs (16) out and at the proper time made or synchronized mad dash to set them all off only to see Oryx go through his damage animation and his life not move not one sliver... to add insult to injury one time the bombs did hurt him and there weren't enough of us left alive to shut him down on his final clap. After another 16 orb detonation glitch/fail, one of the members of the fire team and I begrudgingly decided we would just do it on Normal - everyone else quit. Back to LFG, back down to Oryx, rinse and repeat, just on normal this time. Three more times the same thing happened. All 16 orbs went off and nothing happened, his life never moved. On the third time the team just fell apart and we agreed something wasn't working right and I called it a night (for raiding anyway).
I'm so but hurt. Just thought I'd share. Commiserate with me if you had a similar experience this weekend - or ever.

You're on Xbox...... If you want I'll get you in a group tonight and we'll do it
-
The relic holder and the other left over man in the center need to damage oryx's chest while detonating the blights.

See you in the dark zone!

I've had my own share of glitches from doing oryx challenge mode but I have 2 suggestions. 1st have the aura guy and other Titan in middle not going for 4th bombs shooting oryx chest the whole time. 2ndly I have found it is a must to stagger oryx,kill ads in front and rear then have 1guy do a countdown ex:3-2-1-everyone go to the outer ring of bombs.Then quickly2-1into the bombs. The group has to time entry together because if everyone just runs in at different times you don't get all the damage from the bombs.hope this helps.

You guys need more practice and made a bunch of mistakes, it's all your fault sorry
-
I didn't know there was a fragment for hard completion. Maybe that's my last one??
-
If nobody shoots Oryx in the chest while the bombs are detonating he will take no damage.
-
Most people doesn't realise that while the 4 guys go for detonation, 1 guy in the middle has to constantly damage Oryx chest otherwise he will take no damage whatsoever. I am pretty sure that this was the issue all along with your fireteam.
-
1. Make sure to keep damaging Oryx. 2. Make sure someone isn't lagging. Doesn't have to be the host either. 3. Watch Oryx's animations. If he's choppy and skipping frames then you need to go to Orbit and wait an hour to see if Bungie's servers return to normal.

Yup been there with 320 scrubs as well Honestly if I am not a sherpa I give the team 3-4 runs and quit There are just some people that suck
-
Why would you even bother.
-
Was somebody constantly shooting oryx while detonating the orbs. If not he won't take damage.
