Stop rubbing it in. Karl can play till 11ish. Are the servers up? His message said, "if the servers are up"

Didn't realise they were down! Crap.

 

[Marc.]

Yeah, I've just logged on to check - scheduled maintenance!

 

[JP83]

Just seen. 8pm is the proposed finish for the maintenance.

Ah, that's not too bad then!

 

[Gorms]

Will be interesting to see what's changed... If anything.

 

[Marc.]

They're up. No patch notes, apparently. Behind the scenes stuff...

@JP83

 

[JP83]

@Gorms Can you help some nooblings thru crota hard?

 

[Gorms]

Sure! I'm on now.

I have just worked out how to put videos up on YouTube from Xbox. I wil add some more but here is a lucky kill in trials week one.

 

[Marc.]

Crota was a good run tonight, I enjoyed that. VoG HM was clearly a b**ch, and all that work for not one exotic I'll never get an Icebreaker or Gjallahorn!

 

[Brand86]

VOG is easy when you know what's going on, the hardest bit is probably the confluxes. Atheon is actually really easy IF everyone knows what to do.

I was only on for a bit last night and just got the final chests to get the Day One stuff completed. Does anyone know when you actually get the rewards given to you? Think it's an emblem, a shader and an exotic sparrow (all in sexy super black)

I think you get it on the Taken King's release mate. I think I'll get my chests sorted tonight, then it's just 35 PoE to do.

 

[Brand86]

The chests are a right pain as there is no equivalent to Ghosthunter so you can't see which ones you've got and which ones you need. Thankfully I only needed 6 so didn't take too long to find

How can you tell which Ghosts you need for the achievement? I still haven't unlocked it, and I must have nearly 50! The achievement isn't showing any progress for me either (as obviously 5 ghosts found would be 10% completion).

On another note, I've read Xur has Plan C this week. Still no Ice Breaker /sigh

 

[Brand86]

There is a site called Ghosthunter - use that it shows you which ones you have/need and where each one is, including directions and a link to a video for most of them too. Only takes a couple of hours to get them all

 

[JP83]

Is the fusion rifle worth it? Tempted just to buy it anyway and stash it.

@MarcJP He's got the freaky helmet too!

I think I disassembled Plan C each of the 3/4 times I got it, to be fair. Maybe that was silly though.

I am not buying that f**king helmet! It's horrific!

Just bought the gun. Got the helmet too. Me and nick are gonna freak you out!

You guys on tonight? I'm tentatively thinking that we could give 35 PoE a shot. I know that we should all have Gjallahorn's, but you two with them, and my 365 Hunger might just squeeze us through?

I'm about. Will have to check with nick. My gally still needs ranking up though.

No nick tonight. Darren's working and Chris is on hols.

 

[Brand86]

Sorry just saw this, I could have helped on Friday. It's worth doing Skolas at least once but personally I don't think the rewards are worth it

Paul - will you be running any trials today or tomorrow?

It's okay, I haven't been on for the last couple of nights - a silent protest at s**t exotics from Xur.

I will be on tonight though I should think, if anyone fancies a crack at Skolas?

@JP83 @Brand86

 

[Brand86]

Possibly - although I'm hoping to play some trials. I need that helmet for my titan so happy with just 5 wins, the shotgun doesn't look that great - although I might just buy loads to sell for weapon parts as you get 5-7 for 500 glimmer

I'm on. So are nick, Darren and Chris. Chris was gonna ask Greg too to make 6. Not sure what the plan is though.

We've got enough characters to do another Crota run?

 

[JP83]

Yeah, think that's where we'll be going. I need another 13 radiant energy to fully level up my crota pistol.

 

[Marc.]

We gonna do HM, or just normal?

I've forgotten about that pistol, I need to get levelling it. I need exotics, so whatever we run is fine!

Not sure. Possibly hard mode again. I'll check with the boys.

 

[JP83]

@MarcJP
Looks like a goer. Also that pistol is pretty good. Explosive rounds too!

I've got another pistol that has explosive rounds. I've forgotten what it's called though...

I shall be on by 7.30/8

 

[Brand86]

I like the Word of Crota, although I still want the Messenger with void, that would be ideal.
Gorms - saw you playing trials yesterday...how did you get on? I am Xbox buddies now with a Twitcher guy, hoping to play with him soon as he is AMAZING

 

[JP83]

*snigger*

@MarcJP We certainly made hard work of that last night. Your raging was epic. I thought I was going to witness another Cookie-TV-Destruction.
Glad to have got my Word of Crota up to 365 now.
Also have the Fang of Ir Yut now too after last night's run.

 

[Brand86]

Fang is good upgraded, although still just use Fatebringer!

Last night really annoyed me

All that raging and I gave my space away, I was losing my mind last night! Never mind. Glad you guys got some decent loot. Nick, Daz and I made a hash of the 34 too, didn't finish it until 12.45am!

Should've hopped back on dude. Think Paul would've been happy to re-run the last bit again quickly. The rest of us would have too.

Meh, it's fine, we'll just have to run it again next reset! I can always try and Swordbear with my Hunter, infinitely easier then, rather than my Lock. Plus a few tries on Normal to get into the hang of it would help.

Plus I needed the time to take a breather!

Yeah. At least now we have a couple of gallys, truth and hunger of crota too.

 

[Brand86]

Yeah Crota on hard can be a real b1tch with the sword, it's better now after some patches - back in the day he used to glitch out loads and stand up halfway through his downtime and smash you!
Once you've done it on hard though and got all the rewards, might as well go back to normal as you still have 2 exotic drop chances on the raid

 

[Marc.]

Well we should try and run it in normal as well before reset - if you're around tonight?

Yeah, I don't like using the sword. Especially in Hard!
