Crota hard mode noob runs
Normal is out. Hard is in. Organizing a noob run for guys like me who are gonna jump into hard mode next week and want a try out before jumping in, or beginners who just want more practise.
A patient sherpa would be most welcome, explaining tactics and putting up with the usual misschief as in, but not excluding to, running in holes, melee exploders, abandoning totems, shooting other people in the back of the head with rocket launchers etc, etc.
Time is 20:00, but can be a bit later if people want. We're modern en flexible like that.
So sign up if interested, bring your lvl 32, heavy ammo synth and healing gear/weapon and happy hunting
If you can't make it saturday, but still want to do it, just post the day you can and we'll see if we can run that day too.

2 RepliesSo i don't think we need to run saturdaynight. I kept monday night in there, just in case we get enough people. You guys want to finish crota of before the reset?

7 RepliesSo because I wanted to know what I'm letting myself in for, and because I hate the idea of burning through sh1t-loads of heavy synths and still not beating Crota (they may be 5 to 1SC but that's still a hard-won SC going up in smoke for every 5 I use!) I read up a bit on HM tactics. Obviously don't reveal the spoilers if you don't already know what to expect and want to be surprised (pleasantly or otherwise)! [spoiler]Seeing a lot of people recommending sending two people to Crota, one being a Titan with a bubble, and basically leaving the boomers alone because killing them spawns a wizard (rather than the usual bridge knight). So the Titan drops a bubble on the edge of the Crota platform to shield the swordbearer from the Boomers and then backs off back to the main group.[/spoiler] [spoiler]I wasn't aware of this, but apparently once you get Crota down to about 10% health he summons a d@mn oversoul, and will continue to do so from then on until you kill him. Lots of people recommending ignoring the oversoul altogether if possible and just try and wipe Crota before you die, which seems a bit nuts to me!...[/spoiler] [spoiler]And the other thing I'm seeing quite a lot of is that people are running the Crota battle from the little ledges outside the Crystal room (the ledges above the door to the room where you hide when the ogres spawn).[/spoiler] Don't know what some of the experienced HM peeps think about any of the above. Are we "speshul" on Eurogamer and do things differently? :)

5 RepliesAaargh, I've just been asked to work Saturday night. So I can't make this time. Any scope to move to Sunday or Monday? Or am I out?
-
7 RepliesI can't make Saturday unfortunately or I'd be game.

You can put me down as a sub slash coach. I know at least Merrick and Foxtrot have done hard mode plenty so you should be in capable hands either way.

1 ReplyMe, please! Level 32 Warlock.
-
2 RepliesWhat level are you both?
-
I'm pretty sure I'll find even more ways to die than mentioned, but yep I'm in!
