[i][u]Welcome Guardians, to your greatest challenge...[/u][/i]
For those of you watching live, Bungie has confirmed the new Raid, King's Fall, launches a mere three days after The Taken King drops.
More than that, details are currently scare on the ground and this thread will be updated regularly as more information is available.
That said, with the expected interest in this from our great community, I want to allow enough time to organise ahead so that those who qualify (this will be expected lvl 40 activity with light level yet to be confirmed) can have a dedicated fireteam for that thrilling first excursion into this 6 player activity.
It goes without saying this may not be completed in one sitting, so I'm going to lay out some fair ground rules to allow for a consistent experience for those involved.
[b]King's Fall sign up[/b]
Please post the following:
- PSN
- Class
- Dates & Times (priority will go to those that can confirm consecutive dates. This is to ensure a consistent fireteam is able to work together in solving the mysteries of the Raid.)
It's an exciting time for Destiny and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all those who've stuck it through the high times and the low. You know who you are and you're a credit to this amazing clan. I'd like thank those who were here in the beginning (way before me) and helped lay the foundations for what this great clan has become. You know who you are. Finally I'd like to thank all of the new recruits who've chosen to make the EG Clan their home for Destiny. Welcome aboard, you know who you are.
[b]Updates[/b]:
First update is in already. Raid will launch at 18:00 on the 18th.
Update 2.0 has confirmed that King's Fall normal and hard modes will be lvl 42.
As tweeted out by Luke Smith, delta scaling won't be the same as in year one content. Instead it'll be light level that determines the main difficulty of an activity. I'll further update once this is revealed.
Light level for King's Fall is still unknown, though an article with RedBull suggested it'll be 290.

As below, apologies if anyone didn't get the days they wanted, I've based these on availability across consecutive days.
That said if there are any glaring errors I've missed, please let me know.
There are plenty of people free Monday should there be the need to continue Raids.
[i]As always, eyes up Guardians, eyes up. [/i]
-
Free Monday night now so if a space pops up or enough others want to run a fresh group I'm game.
-
Group 5 is good to go!
-
I'm up for a monday raid group as well.
-
Put me down with egphattso for the extra monday raid. Maybe we can get another group going.
-
In the interest of transparency, I'm nowhere near the required light level yet. I'm very happy to support, but I am concerned that I'll be more of a hindrance..! Is everyone else 280 or higher then?
-
What time are we aiming to meet up? I know the Raid opens at 6pm but I cannot see me getting on much before 6:30pm.
-
Ill need the extra time to get my light higher, sitting at 260 just now.
-
PSN: EGPhattso Class: Warlock Available on all four nights, in theory, so: EGPhattso TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE ;-)
-
I've added a Monday only group with EGPhattso at its head. A bunch of us should be free, especially from Groups A and B, so please let me know and I'll add you as we go.
-
What time do the raid's begin as I will struggle to get on before 7? And thank you bio for your admin skills!!!
-
Apologies for the delay in posting the group's. This is probably one of the most difficult I've had to set up! I've tried to make them as fair as possible, but inevitably I'm sure they'll be some disappointment, mainly for those that were sadly unable to play Saturday. Will post before 11:00.
-
I would say i'm happy to try out the new raid, however i don't think i'm going to be high enough in light level. I'll sit it out this week, but i should be good to go next week.
-
Not sure if the helps or hinders your excellent planning however I can now can make the saturday (along with all other nights!). Thanks Bio.
-
I'd like to put my name down. I understand if I'm only a sub or worse, that's what I get for being in the fence about getting TTK.
-
Do not forget to include yourself too Bio.
-
PSN: Switch_024 CLASS: Hunter DATES & TIMES Friday and Saturday nights are a no go for me unfortunately. I will be available Sunday from 8pm and Monday from 8pm.
-
Im confused.... what are the groups dude? :) I'm presuming you haven't put them together yet.
-
Morning all, very important, please check the dates in the update above for yourself and let me know if any changes are needed.
-
Might have lost my touch from a few months off but a massively up for a pop on day 1. The Mrs is gonna get a shock when I start submitting raid bookings for the front room yet again.
-
I'll be free as soon as I hit the 40. PSN Willbert07 Class - Titan Times free depends on wife, kids and work, so if you see me on, feel free to invite me as an when.
-
Im always available!!! a destiny tart if you like. psn same as my username. and i play as a warlock
-
S-T-A-R-S_Nathan Titan I'm afriad I'll onlu be able to make Sunday 20th around the usual 7.30 time. If there's an in progress session from a previous day and the group requires some one I'd be happy to jump in Thank you as always for sorting Bio. The Admin team's work is always very much appreciated
-
Edited by m_marecki: 9/6/2015 9:59:05 PMI'm definitely up for it and running it blind. i can do any day of the week consecutive weeks and will most likely be bringing my Titan. Psn : Marecki1982
-
Unfortunately Fridays are a no can do for me so I'll have to pass on the first wave, but I'll be ready and willing for when the raid schedule returns to the mid-week rota. Good luck to those of you running the first attempts.
-
Looks like I'll be booking two weeks of spa trips for the wife but count me in! Consecutive nights, but won't be able to start until 7:30 due to putting the little one to bed. Would prefer to be in a team who won't read spoilers if possible. I'd like to at least try and solve the puzzles ourselves before we reach for help, as I know a few last time watched feeds to work out Crota which was a shame. Bring it on!! The King will fall, eventually we hope :). Level 40 Warlock!
-
Me, standing by a ledge, with Merrick, please. Can do consecutive nights as required.
