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]

Let ppl play how they want doucher

People will play the game the way that makes them happy. That's why we play games in the first place. You have no right to expect people to change play style for you.
-
My advice..Run strikes with friends.
-
Guessing this kid uses shotguns only because a real sniper would know the term improvised over watch position
-
Is this post for real or is this satire, I can't tell anymore. If it's satire thanks for the laugh. If it's for real then I'm laughing at you're post because it's a ROC strike and people sniping from the back shouldn't slow down any progression or make you complete the strike any slower. Just blast the boss with Gjallahorn a few times and it's done.
-
I know this post is sarcastic and/or a satire but, i just want to point out that using a sniper (any), id fundamental for completing any (yes, ANY) ROC stricke. Just saying.
-
People that sit in cheese spots during roc strikes are priority to get killed... Be it hump infront of there rockets. Shoulder charge them into mobs or off cliffs. Pop bubbles in the los spots they stand. So many options to list.
-
I may just start doing this again. When I have done that before I always seem to get kills so I can't understand where this thought of getting no kills has come from. Please can you explain that assumption for me?
-
I really don't care I end up soloing most of the ROC strikes anyway with people constantly quitting and going AFK
-
Edited by lord rouxthless: 1/16/2015 4:32:26 PMHoly -blam!- THANK YOU. I HATE people who do that. Unless it's the Goliath Tank on the Valus mission, you better be by my side or your kicked or gonna be solo. I report people like there is no tomorrow.
-
I'll stick with the black hammer. No reload and no need for ammo (as long as you're hitting crits) and it stun locks. Black hammer pisses on the IB in strikes.
-
Just ran 3 Strikes and every single teammate I had was using primarily Ice Breaker. It's great to use, but when you have large mobs coming at you might want to switch to a different weapon...
-
You sound like a tryhard that skips half the strike to try and clear it as fast as possible, only to rage because the other two are taking their time. If you want teammates to play your way, start a fireteam. If you rely on matchmaking then you need to deal with whatever you get for teammates.
-
My ice breaker is fully maxed 331 causing maximum damage. Hobgoblins below don't stand a chance. So I'll resume my sniping position a the top providing support for my team below.
-
noobs been sniping with icebreakers since the first time it was sold. didnt break the game then, sure it wont now.
-
Yeah, the only time to use the safe areas for this strike is Nightfall.
-
I'm still going to snipe from there but not because I'm using IB. I use snipers that carry 30 rounds. Ain't nobody got time for that slow ass regen. When I run out of ammo I'm coming down with my fatebringer and ghorn
-
Goddamn, I'm going to snipe EVERYTHING with this bad boy.
-
I agree that it sucks if they are doing it the entire time at the archon priest before the priest comes out but I have no problem if someone is up there once the priest comes out. If somebody is up there, then the other people should do what ever they can to lure him out into the fire lane. It's nice if somebody can just concentrate on dealing out damage and not have to worry about dodging and running around. If the priest is out of view, then the guy up there needs to be taking out any targets he can hit. That's just good strategy. It's synergy
-
I agree, So i'd just leave you in a safe place behind them. Put your controller down and go make some food. That's what I do.
-
A good sniper will use every single bullet to 1 shot the enemies. I love the IB and I find it is a great 1 hit KO machine. Besides if I am in the back with my ol' trusty IB you won't have to worry about reviving me... The same can't be said about you however.
-
Hell, sit back and let them do the work. This seems to be successful for my kids.
-
I'll play however I want tyvm. Shut up.
-
Who cares?
-
Please, tell me more about how we should all play this game the way you want us to play :-)
-
Maybe you should take your hastags advice. #nevergofullretard
