Greetings shepherds, Yesterday, I experimented with multiple groups outside the confines of our clan to attempt to find the most effective/least risky method of destroying Crota on hard mode. As it turns out, having an invisible hunter is not infallible. The strategy: Everyone by now should be familiar (Or take time, now, to familiarize themselves) with the ledge outside of the "Glass" Panes on the room where Ir Yut awaits. This is more commonly known as the "Middle strategy" And the best way I have found yet involves a slightly modified version of this strategy, that DOESNT EVEN REQUIRE YOU TO KILL OGRES. I will attempt to condense this version, as I am at work and have other things to do, this is the only time I have computer access. You need at least 1 titan, 2 is preferred. The titans need to have Ward of dawn (The bubble shield) And the helm of saint 14 is recommended though not required. When crota is dropped, and the swordbearer is moving to his position on either the left or right side, have a titan deploy the bubble ON THE BRIDGE WHERE CROTA WALKS JUST IN FRONT OF THE BOOMER TOWER If done correctly, this draws the boomers fire towards the shield, and away from the swordbearer. The only other requirement, is dropping crota 3 TIMES each time you make a sword run on him. this requires very good coordination between teammates, and if done properly, it will kill him before ogres are out. Now on hard, crota goes enraged and spawns an oversoul right as he is abut to die, IT IS CRUCIAL YOU IGNORE THE OVERSOUL AND DROP CROTA THE 3RD TIME ON THE SECOND SWORD ATTACK. If done propely your swordbearer will have ample time to kill crota before the oversoul banishes you. I received my necrochasm (Crux of Crota) TWICE last night using this method. God speed guardians.
