This isn't a nightfall. You don't have to stand on the rocks. The ones that are on the top of the area where the 3 waves of [b]vex[/b] spawn on the Archon Priest [b]strike[/b] when you're opening the door near the beginning. I understand you're JUST NOW getting an icebreaker, but please.. Just don't.
[spoiler]EDIT: Apparently this post was unclear to a few. I don't care if you have icebreaker, I don't care if you bought it, I don't care if you use it. However I do care if you sit at the back of the map sniping off goblins, getting essentially no kills leaving me to do 90% of the work. That's leeching off of me, and is not a play style. I think the icebreaker is great, and I use it for a few things.. But this isn't a nightfall. You're not going to die instantly, and you don't have to stand on that diagonal rock at the back of the 3 wave area on the Archon Priest strike about 1000 meters away, or whatever it is doing nothing for anyone.
EDIT 2: APPARENTLY IT IS STILL UNCLEAR TO ABOUT 2/3 OF THIS FORUM WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT, SO I AM NOW TYPING IN CAPS TO GET THE ATTENTION OF YOUR PRIMITIVE MINDS. READ THROUGH THE POST THOROUGHLY AND HAVE A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT I AM SAYING BEFORE COMMENTING ASININE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE A TOOL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME M8S.
EDIT 3: [b]SINCE PEOPLE WILL INEVITABLY MISINTERPRET MY POSTS IN THE FUTURE, I HAVE A VIDEO FOR YOU. THINK ON IT. MEDITATE ON IT. CONSIDER IT DEEP DOWN INSIDE THE PITS OF YOUR PITCH BLACK IGNORANT SOUL.[/b] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAKG-kbKeIo
EDIT 4: Bolded words were edited in for the special flowers of this thread who needed a little extra help.
EDIT 5: After about a day of this thread being out I remembered the name of the strike. It's called Winters Run. Hallelujah.
EDIT 6: Now that this thread has gone on for a few days and it has played out to my amusement, I will inform everyone that this does slightly bother me, but it doesn't matter to me all that much and I felt like getting a rise out of some people. It was fun everyone, now like it up because we're almost at 100 likes :D[/spoiler]

There are tons of kids now days who's only play style is to be a tryhard at every round turn. It's what they do. And the ones that are only part tryhard have been told that's the safest way to do X strike. so it's what they do all the time because they think it makes them smart.
-
What's your problem dude? They just want to test their new weapon. Deal with it.
-
Or I'll continue playing however I please. yup sounds grand.
-
10/10 post -blam!- yeah op, about God damn time someone with a -blam!-ing brain makes a post
-
I'll be sniping the Archon Priest with black hammer so that he won't move or fire his gun once during the whole encounter. Please keep those other mobs off me like a good little boy. Thanks.
-
You know we all did this when we first got them.

Edited by WildBill408: 1/16/2015 5:24:49 PMI'll do it for a primary, but a sniper rifle is just silly to grind in ROC strikes before the boss IMO. I feel the OPs pain, I donate 1 tear to the cause.

People have always done this while I am the only one down there

I have already had that happen with the single ROC strike I played today. I am all for xur selling what bungie wants him too and I bought mine today. But hell on earth , why use it for these strikes. I went on to play legit whilst two boobs stayed up on the ledge using snipers
-
My question is why do you care so much. Are you one that thinks you (earned) it so there for everyone else should not have one?
-
Edited by CarpentryHero: 1/16/2015 5:15:06 PMIt'll pass once the newness wares out, new toy, gotta use it. Rather than do 90% of the work, sit back poor a stiff drink and then hop in your sparrow and ram them mid snipe LoL.
-
Maybe people should play the game for fun?

#Thisgameisnotsniperelite got me
-
it kinda beats the purpose of icebreaker if you go face to face w/ the enemies. its not an up close weapon as far as i know. unless you're too pro that snipes when the enemy is like 2 feet away from you.
-
It's gonna take a while before the hype dies off. I've been playin since day one, I missed getting ice breaker the first time Xur brought it, and I've been trying since and finally my patience and saving of coins was rewarded and although virtually everyone I've played with has one, it's different to use it. Just messing with this morning before I went to work I killed something that normally would've taken a ridiculous amount of ammo in a stupid the little amount of shots and my reaction was something on the lines of "dear god what is this thing?!" Give it some time, in about a week or two it'll have died down a little and sit in the back of everyone's inventory again unless they need it. As for me, I just got the Plan C on my nightfall last night and the icebreaker this morning so I am going to be working double time to level both of those up.
-
That was literally the first thing I did with it. Killed all the hobgoblins and both hydras along with a fair number of the adds. Other guys ran around like chickens as things died around them to my mighty Icebreaker. By the 6th strike today I'm sick of it though, don't snipe thralls until you have the explosion perk please :)

The only ROC strike I actually snipe is Devil's Lair on the tank. Standing back on the building and spamming that tank with Black Hammer shots = 45 second encounter.
-
I am now planning on going into ROC strikes and sniping everything from areas that enemies can't hit me just because I can.
-
The can sit back refill their ammo my black hammer has it covered
-
-
Totally agree with you but I'm glad that I won't have to take out the hover tank basically by myself anymore!

Let ppl play how they want doucher
