Anyone have a Crota checkpoint? would like to get the youngfella his Necro before he goes on his holidays.

I'm still planning to do KF later on in the week with him and two of his mates, probably just the first few encounters just to get them some raid experience.

I'm good for either if you need bodies. Can even bring a titan instead of a warlock this time, so I can do more than come back to life

Yakuza

I think he's teeing up his mates for 2000 tonight, I think it'll just be the 290 light version (really just for flags and frags) as one lad's gear wouldn't be up to the later versions and I can't be ars3d with the hard mode mechanics.

Happy to help if you need a body. Will put the party chat onto the "can barely hear the young lads setting".

Destiny is down tonight - 3pm to 12am - so there'll be no Destiny raiding tonight.

Was just gonna say it'll be down tonight.

I'm home early tomorrow if it's going ahead so I can hop on and help

Yakuza

Thanks for the heads-up, Conovar

nocal

Happy to help tomorrow evening....in the meantime, I can run guided tours of Pandora tonight.

Yakuza

I'm off early today, might try to squeeze in something around 1700 or so. I'm not around tomorrow (but iceninja is) and the family are on hols from Friday so I'll run his character through it if we can't do it today.

Yakuza

Thanks a million to Carruth, Nev and Nocal for their help with the Totems / WP / Godzilla (:)) and the Sisters last night with the youngfellas. With only a handful of wipes on each encounter By doing each encounter first time, every time, the lads had a ball and I even got a new shotty to toy around with and some flags on my Titan.

I never thought we'd get to the big fella himself (yes, it is a lot easier than I thought on the 290 light version) yet there we were, under two hours from totems to Oryx, including an almost 20 min break while RL stuff was done.

We 4-manned the bit at the start (a bit hard with poxy phalanxes pushing you off the ledges) and the jumping puzzle took a while, even with the checkpoint half way, but I can now say I know what to do there (even though I can still screw up easily enough).

The nipper is delighted with his raid fragments, almost done with the ToM quest now, he might get it tonight before he heads to Spain for the next while but I suspect once D2 comes out in September he'll not be too bothered if he finishes it or not.

Any interest in a VOG this weekend?

Yakuza

Sure, always room in the vault for a Vex

Generic Dreadhead

Anyone down for a cheeky VoG this evening? Ideally experience with the challenge modes would be welcome. Wanna help a mate

Yep. Should be in from around 8. I'll be going hunter cause I want to finish my hunter VoG set.

Yakuza.... What are flags?

Butt towels probably

I got 6 flags on my Titan last night. Setting up shop beside the UN over the weekend.

Sorry, a hangover* from my MMORPG days - I meant getting a part / step of a quest done. In Everquest, for some high-end raid zones you had to do subquests to access then (sometimes there were several layers of quests to do) and each step done added a flag to your character.

Also, it rhymes with frags

*Quite an apt word, given that I was out on the lash last night.

I CALLED IT!

I'd be up for a raid, can do tonight and tomorrow - not too sure about the weekend.

Tazzimus

That's five I think, depending on when Optimus is free?
Have we got a sixth lurking about?

I'll be pootling about sometime after 10:00 (if you need a spare), it's been fairly quiet the last few weeks.

Anybody fancy the doing challenge mode Wrath tomorrow, from around 7 or 8?
At the very least I just need to get one last Siva fragment in there.

Yep. With 4 other boardsies though.

Tazzimus

I'll do it as well. Haven't actually managed to finish Challenge mode yet.
Time wise might be a bit later though. Maybe 8:30 or so

Yakuza

I'm happy to give it a lash. I've only finished it on Normal mode, have done (but not finished) the raid on Hard mode, but the challenges were, well, challenging. 8:30 works for me.

dudeeile

You can count me in, numerous challenge mode completions, max light, ss, bs, and dd. Must have mic, no squeakers.

Also must have full raid gear with ornaments

That's 5 of us for 8.30 so.

OptimusTractor

That was f*****g awful.

Yup. I blame Dude, and his forgetting which button was square, and which was circle :P

Tazzimus

Well ****, I thought you were doing it tonight ha ha.

Supa fail

You're lucky you missed Vosiks phase one. That was longer than necessary.

To be fair, with 5 it's a bit more awkward

I know I had a good few deaths on phase 2, but they were generally soon after a reset when I'd get stuck in a wall or shot in the back when fumbling for a SIVA charge. I'm around defo Sunday evening, possibly Sat if anyone wants to try again.
