Feels so good to get those 10 blue fusion rifles out of my Vault. Feels like I have loads of room now.
Even worse was not having them beforehand, and being stuck with one bounty slot taken up for 2 weeks (back in the good old days when we only had FIVE slots. FIVE, I TELLS YA!)
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust
Okay, Arcadians, I have to drive 15 hours to get to Florida, but I haven't completed VoG yet this week. I'm talking priorities, folks. I'm not going to have a chance to play at all for the next week. Can you help a brother in need?
Well my fellow PS3ers, it was fun playing with you. My PS3 just had it's final breath. System won't turn on and only does a flashing red light. In the act of dying, it consumed the Destiny disc. It's cold dead hands refuse to cough up the disc.
This happened to mine, but I fixed it by just unplugging the darn thing for about 15 minutes, then plugging it back in and booting it into safe mode (hold the power button until after the 2nd set of beeps... the first set is the video mode reset), with no internet connection (unplugged the network cable, too).
Tried holding the power button down but the system gave a yellow light. From reading the internet, yellow light means death.
Imagine what "cheese' could exist if someone tried to copy Velveeta.

Suck it, cattle/caterpillars/hares/rabbits
I rearchitected my network last night and all my woes disappeared and the destiny works like a charm.
Unfortunately the intervening four weeks mean that I am eating it in the crucible due to everyone else creeping up to 29 and my fledgling skills atrophying.
I am now only some xp, helium and shards away from making my main my second level 30, at long last.
Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.
Also @BillyIdle messaged me first, but didn't say yes just inquired on the time. If he cannot make it, the @Al_Wat is up.
If someone can make a group message (out right now on the phone), we can work out the start time (I was thinking 6 central so hopefully everyone can eat before the raid if need be).
When you mentioned noon I was assuming something earlier in the afternoon. If 6 central is the game plan then feel free to give my spot up to Al_Wat.
For a hard mode raid, what is best? Suros Regime (300 ATK) or Atheon's Epilogue (300 ATK)?
If it's the Epilogue, then I know that I have to farm 60 spinmetal tomorrow during the day ;-)
Grab yourself some overalls and a pitchfork, in that case. You're going to want the Epilogue for Praetorians and Minotaurs, plus the bonus damage for the Oracles. YMMV of course...
Of course after I do this I take my Hunter into the Hard vault and of course it gives me to raid helms. The game seems to delight in giving me stuff for Hunter when it's not my favorite and is the one class I'm really happy with the exotic hat.

When my old PS3 YLODed, I borrowed a heat gun from the local tool library, and reflowed it. I wasn't sure it would work, but you know, I couldn't make it MORE broken, so what the hell? I managed to resurrect it three times before I finally caved and bought a superslim off eBay for $75.
Thats eight with me as nine. Please reply with when you want to raid (early or late, if can can to either than say so but also state your prefered time.
So we have room for 3-4 more. Message ot @ me to show interest. I'd like for every one to be able to raid.

I'm naming the group - "Fucking Late Party", because its like 4 in the morning for me, but I didnt feel like leaving when we got so close, my Hunter got Timebreaker and Thunderlord.

Changed my modem for a different one and then put it into bridge mode. The double NAT that I had before worked fine up until it didn't, but it seemed like it was something on my ISP side that flipped my switch as despite months of things working fine Destiny became suddenly unplayable and various sites on the internets became unusable.

I'd like to thank you guys for dragging me through. Even though I was 30, I was doing pretty much nothing against the oracles. Now that I got VoC though, well, things are gonna run a lot smoother next time!
I did think it funny that the first raid after buying the IB boots, I got raid boots and I like the IB boots better. Oh well!
Any of you guys see me on Destiny and want a a hand, lemme know!

Ggs and thanks to the 360 crew for the evening of Iron Banner. With luck I will hit rank 3 with the lock tomorrow and then all three characters will be hitting 30. Look forward to grouping with you guys again.

I hate how not getting B on Firebase Delphi is basically a for sure loss.
Firebase Delphi is similar to Blind Watch, in that holding A and B is far more preferable to holding B and C.
If you're spawned at C, always try to sneak around to A the long way round the outside. It's a good stepping point to taking B, and even if you can't take B, the A side gives you far more opportunities to just blow anyone away that tries to get in there to the point it may not even matter that much.
Apart from Twilight gap, there isn't a map in IB where I don't have a preferred control point pairing.
Shores of Time - B and C (all the good sniper points are at the C side of the spawn)
Rusted Lands - A and B (closer together than B and C, plus oil drum structure is on the A side of the spawn as a really good sniper point)
Blind Watch - Obvious
Firebase Delphi - A and B because of the better approach into B.

Great run everyone, and especial thanks to the euro guys for staying up late with us so we could finish. My warlock is level 30. I pulled raid boots, raid gloves, and two raid helmets, plus a second hard mode ship. All I really wanted was an arc primary and maybe a bike. Sigh. Game loves giving you things when you don't need them. Meanwhile my hunter and titan are stuck in the level 29 zone waiting on chestpieces.

Any particular times? Would roughly 1:00 PM PST / 4:00 PM EST work for folks?
Any if we have enough people 29 or higher, would folks prefer hard? Or a smooth normal run?
yeah, that time works for me. I've got the waypoint for the oracles on HM if that's the way we decide to go.

Got my hand towel, and the IB arms now, so I have a better stat assignment than I had before. Did you know 360 strength is over 100 wasted stat points? Stupid stacked strength...
Anyway, thanks for the fun tonight. I may be looking for a VoG group at some point since it seems mine may have fallen apart.

Buncha great IB matches tonight. Praise be to HUGGY, forever may he toil with his green guns.
I'm thinking I like Found Verdit better than Invective. It seems to be a more reliable one hit killer. I do love the look and sound of Invectivec though. I'll see how I feel after I get it upgraded more and have regenerating ammo.
Got Dead Orbit to rank 3. Got more armor I can't wear. I am nearing complete sets for a Titan and a Warlock in my vault.
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust
God, I hope I can get rank 3 on my titan and 4 on my hunter before Tuesday. I work everyday until Thanksgiving and that's killing my play time...

Some how I just managed to knock out 3 iron banner bounties, including killing 10 without dying, and also the ikora Rey 25+ kills v deaths bounty. Not sure how I did it, I'm pretty dang tired

Got a maxed Corrective Measure? Go Suros. Otherwise epilogue may be the better bet.
Epilogue. But you have a Vision of Confluence which is better than both.

I guess I'll just have to suffer.

Me and my friend are both good for any time from noon to evening. I would prefer not to play too late as I have to work the next morning.
Best time would probably be early afternoon, but I am totally fine playing whenever in that noon to evening time range.
I'm naming the group - "Fucking Late Party", because its like 4 in the morning for me, but I didnt feel like leaving when we got so close, my Hunter got Timebreaker and Thunderlord.
I (and I'm guessing Carl too) would prefer the noon/early one due to being in GMT (and GMT+1 for Carl).

Depends
Suros is overall better but it also sucks up an exotic slot.
Suros advantages:
Better overall damage
Better overall ammo efficiency
Significantly longer range
Epilogue advantages:
Bonus damage against oracles
Void damage helps chew through Minotaur shields
Doesn't use an exotic slot
Do you have an Icebreaker? Gyerafnhalaofjdsahorn? Suddenly that exotic slot becomes very important. If not, you can just use your Suros.
Suros is good for overall combat in the raid, is mediocre against oracles, and is garbage against Atheon.
