[foggy knoll]

Ah yeah, that’ll do it.

I don’t really mind that stipulation tbh

[true mauve]

Finding 5 other people with no lives is tough

You can run through the dunes and skip alot of the path in 1st encounter cant you?

[foggy knoll]

Yeah, lots of time can be saved in lamps, as long as people can move fast enough.

[novel quest]

Yeah but you still need to dunk at first podium

[modest plume]

Are there any LFG channels?

[scenic wigeon]

Hmmm seems normal

[neat moat]

gvmazz6S

Hii

[cerulean hawk]

I cant find a competent group to do into the abyss

[wanton lichen]

Count on me

[dusty stone]

Question number one, is there an art section?

[vocal mango]

This is with matchmade team lmao

[dusty stone]

YEE HAW

Coming from a half Texan btw

[vocal mango]

Id easily get top 1 with a decent team

[dusty stone]

Wouldn’t we all

[vocal mango]

No we wouldnt

[dusty stone]

Where did the MW2 days of teamwork go?

[vocal mango]

Also is the animated emblem only for contest tmr?

[dusty stone]

7 hours of randoms and boom, skadoosh, your in the top 5% of players in the game, remember those days?

[cyan tide]

Animated is only for top 600 players during the leaderboard rush phase

[scenic wigeon]

I just want the shell and emblem

[past hamlet]

How to finish bulwark ops. Need to lost?

[dusty stone]

I wish to re-ask this question

[vocal mango]

Yea that's easy af everyone i match doesn't know anything

[scenic wigeon]

Me and the boys did normal mode yesterday, today we gonna lock in and gun for the top

[scenic wigeon]

#1298469950998057011

[cyan tide]

That or go all the way to wave 99 lol

[past hamlet]

Thanks.

[vocal mango]

Delete all towers

[cyan tide]

Just so we're clear, it's top 600 in challenge mode. There's only like 50 teams that have cleared that so far

[shrewd elm]

destiny so cheeks

[dusty stone]

Thanks man

[vocal mango]

Yea and I just need people who know things

Does rn count?

[shrewd elm]

look up in my eyes they like xan u ain do enough

[vocal mango]

Would you? Be interested

[cyan tide]

It needs to be a whole run with the same team to count, from first to last encounter. Leaderboard rush ends tomorrow iirc

[shrewd elm]

i just call my twin up yea pls turn me up!

[vocal mango]

It starts tmr wym

[cyan tide]

No, leaderboard rush started yesterday

[shrewd elm]

been alot of times i was outside by my lonely

[vocal mango]

Im confused

[shrewd elm]

why

im in ny wit my brudda gaf about da leannnn

[empty kettle]

Bro is high

[vocal mango]

What im sayin

[cyan tide]

The main screen is wrong, leaderboard rush ends tomorrow

[shrewd elm]

i just woke up. im not high

[vocal mango]

Then stop talking to yourself in gibberish, normal ppl don't do that

[shrewd elm]

im rapping lyrics 🥹😭

[iron yarrow]

Is the limited character gonna comeback or it wont?

[scenic wigeon]

Tommorow at 10am est correct

[cyan tide]

Kabr will be added to standard banner, he's very unlikely to get another limited banner after this one

Other limited characters will get reruns as normal

[shrewd elm]

u know alot about a mobile game

[true mauve]

[true mauve]

Dang, im not a stupid cornpuff that they made me out to be after all 😭

[sour pond]

What's the verdict on exotic for kabr?

[silent heath]

Hello

[true mauve]

Gonna be situational. Arby for shinka/shields. RC for dps. Symmetry for arc ad clear. Game is getting to a point where we have multiple builds for each lightbearer soon for each content

More exotics they add the better game gets

[cyan tide]

There's a secret chest? Can you get it in normal mode or does it have to be challenge?

[white fossil]

epic kabr2 screenshot

[scenic wigeon]

[jagged osprey]

Who do I need to speak to at netease to re-run Helhest banner lol. I want to T6 her so bad

Got a screenshot? I’m gonna go get that

[sturdy geyser]

Time for Suffering.Death. And Cookies

[knotty vigil]

What's the combo to 1 phase crotas shield with the sword?

Light light heavy doesn't seem to work anymore

[naive ingot]

Cookies!!

[scenic wigeon]

Beside or on...?

[devout void]

its the easter egg they said

[worn trench]

Yooo I almost thought he went to the Desert Perpetual act 1

[gritty rune]

Ning: give me Maha or I retire

[worn trench]

(Act 1 cause Epic Raid is the act 2 technically)

[old current]

soooo is the event for dynamic emblem already on? Saw other in game sources say leaderboard refresh in 23h for emblem rewards, but also this says leaderboard rush in 23 hours?

[vast sky]

Dynamic emblem

[boreal moss]

yes the another calamity is for dynamic emblem ends in 23 hours

[tight talon]

Why do people already have normal emblem then?

[old current]

cuz normal emblem is given on completion

[tight talon]

Ah

[vast sky]

Invisible thrawls, crota last stand invis and gliching, and an exotic weapon that has no ads scope, literally the buggiest state ive ever seen ts what is this update though

[old current]

aight bad netease wording again ig

[vast sky]

Dynamics emblem ≠ normal emblem

The event for the animated version is the one that has yet to start

[old current]

could've fooled me if you said we haven't left alpha yet

[tight talon]

Jesus how many raid types we are having

[vast sky]

My team wiped 4 times on crota cause he was invis and slamming us and then turning invisible right after slamming

On another note, symmetry dps is absolutely insane

[thin valve]

Yo, what to do with crota oversoul. 1 person is not enough to break it?

[vast sky]

Typically no unless they super

Its best to just set your team up to one phase

[dry bolt]

SMC

[boreal moss]

1 person can break it 100% 2-3 izi shots kill it

[thin valve]

Its easier?

[thin valve]

It clearly did not tho

[dry bolt]

Super mecha champions

[boreal moss]

it does im not sure what ur doing but it 100% breaks with 3 shots, 2 shots with buffs

[vast sky]

It depends, its putting the burden of stress on how good your players and team are at mechanical skills and damage rotations vs not one phasing the burden is survival performance and raid mechanic stress, imo its easier as its shortening the raid time in half and naturally the longer the raid the more chances people have to throw the run

[dusty stone]

I tried applying for the content creator thingy to post fan art, I think I messed up the form

[calm violet]

Why do devs only make challenge mode for Crota’s End available for 2 days?

I want to keep playing it to beat it not get on leaderboard

Then they take it away and there’s nothing fun to do in the game

[scenic wigeon]

Will be back soon tho

[calm violet]

Well the first raid the challenge mode never came back

Or I think the light level limitation was lifted

[modest tiger]

Contest mode lasts for 8 days leaderboard rush lasts for 23 hours

[calm violet]

Ah ok thanks that makes more sense

I’m like there’s no way I’m gonna beat this raid in two days with randoms lol

I have 8 days to beat it

[jade maple]

anybody having problems with oversoul wiping even though it was shot ??

[modest tiger]

It has too much hp just go for one phase

2 sniper mags and 10 QB shots at 10 seconds to barley pass it

[boreal moss]

2-3 izi shots takes it out

[bitter estuary]

guys why is the 3rd encounter so bugged

we're literally 75% way and there's 2 duplicate rune symbols, but only 1 rune to shoot it, wow amazing work netease, also we can't see the symbols other than 1 x simbol with upside down u and v on the bottom

i want to quit the whole raid so bad rn but damn

[cyan tide]

After tomorrow challenge mode won't have the power penalty so it'll be easier and you also won't be able to get the leaderboard rush rewards. But other than that, yeah

[modest tiger]

You’re supposed to decipher who goes where with the same symbol on some doors

[cyan tide]

It just sounds like you're having trouble seeing the symbols. There are some that look very similar
Also some symbols appear in more than one barrier while others only appear in one so you have to communicate with your team to make sure everyone is on the correct spot

[earnest gust]

How do you pick up the swords in bridge crossing?

[dry bolt]

Bring back smc

[bitter estuary]

oh nvm i accidentally dropped it, but thanks

if it drops it respawns the knight

[cyan tide]

You need to have the enlightenment buff to pick them up. After the first sword is placed, 2 knights will spawn instead of one and you need to pick the correct sword or you will die when going across. To know which sword is the correct one, the people across the bridge have to look at the symbols and call out the one that is needed

[neat minnow]

I feel like I must be not understanding Bulwark Ops, I've never even cleared wave 5 on solo endless. As somebody who is missing Stone Hoof, Anesthesia, and Gungnir, any advice for making headway with this today?

[cyan tide]

From my experience if you drop the symbol it just stays on the ground, maybe it respawns the knight after a while but I never noticed that

[grizzled blade]

Anyone wanna help me get this banner in a bit?

[bitter estuary]

there's a timer if you don't do it quickly, also no worries, we're like 8~9 hours total in the 3rd encounter, surely we'd do well

[cyan tide]

Just keep calm and communicate with your team
You got this

[bitter estuary]

sure 👍

[wide dagger]

This calamity gotta be the hardest just 27 ( EU serv) teams till now finished it

[grizzled blade]

Oh damn

[karmic chasm]

Just failed a normal Abyss 6 times in a row bc people can’t walk

[grizzled blade]

I’ve been leaving that one till last to do the seal for for that exact reason lol

And yet bridge is still claiming people trying to cross without a sword or chalice 🤣

[bitter estuary]

also it's bugged apparently

once it respawns the 3rd one wont appear, i think if you shoot it it dissapears (teammate shooting the one with the rune)

i think it's a bug since it's happened 3 times in my run

[true mauve]

Alright ready to do Rossi runs on challenge mode Crota

Who down?

[sturdy geyser]

Finally omg

[unkempt inlet]

the new raid is god

[bitter estuary]

wow the challenge mode still bugs this sucks

3rd encounter bugs

[vast arch]

Still only 55 teams on the leaderboards for NA. I feel like we were at 100 by this time for Eclipse?

[cyan tide]

The only bug we encountered was an extra swordbearer spawning from time to time

[bitter estuary]

we did it otherwise, after 9 hours+ gg

[sharp talon]

yeah 3rd encounter was ok for my team too

[bitter estuary]

its buggy but tbf it’s not that bad if its not buggy

[jolly oxide]

man, nobody seems on wanting to do a fresh contest run on NA servers
heck

[night spoke]

we always had extra swordbearer spawns for yr yut if we did more than 1 phase

[bitter estuary]

i had problems with the rune one, not swordbearer 👍

[vast arch]

LOL

[night spoke]

well... guaranteed next char i guess

[true mauve]

You ran already or first time?

[summer kite]

I'm in the same resolute boat 😭

[jolly oxide]

first time

i already saw vids on first two encounters

[true mauve]

#lfg-great-hunt

[vast arch]

So bad, now I gotta wait another like 4 days to get my next free pulls

#lfg-great-hunt message
Contact Boog Sloogus

[jolly oxide]

will give them a dm rq then

[lone talon]

Was out yesterday. Confused on the Crota / Calamity events. The levels suggest you should do Crota's end first based in it being lower or should you start with Another Calamity?

[true mauve]

One is casual one is Fair Play standards 59k power for leaderboard contest runs. You want a 6man premade for the one.

[lone talon]

Got it! Okay. Thank you!

[true mauve]

Np, the contest mode is short timed and goes away

[spark dawn]

Gave Kabr his Rapid Fire Weapons back

[foggy knoll]

I was worried about staying in top 600 for a single clear, looks like I’ll be fine lol

I could go in and get a better time, but meh, I’m not stressed about it lol

[trim wedge]

Hello Rising players. I've come to ask a question:
What exactly makes this "raid" a raid?
They handed all the mechanic instructions on a silver platter so isn't this just a strike?

[noble orbit]

I just wanna complete the calamity

[nimble idol]

I’ve not played in a while, who’s the best character to use now?

[visual wharf]

guys what the abyss tech everyone found?

[empty kettle]

Many people don't always read the instructions

[foggy knoll]

queue people passing the chalice around for 10 minutes on Crota

[trim wedge]

Does this mean that people who read the instructions/prior experience had an upper hand in the raid?
It seems to me like this "contest" is just a competition of which team has the most DPS.

[calm violet]

Go watch a video on YouTube of raid and you’ll see how much more difficult it is and the amount of coordination and communication with mics needed

[karmic chasm]

Duo normal Crota today? mechanics won’t let us I don’t think

[calm violet]

They should make contest mode permanent

[bitter estuary]

you're clearly underestimating the raid lol

we're finally doing the 4th part after struggling w/ the 3rd one for 9h+

[calm violet]

Make contest mode permanent and make the contest mode rewards permanent no time limited

There’s nothing to play in the game once contest mode raid is gone

Leaderboard rush contest and rewards time limited and they get the dynamic emblem

[karmic chasm]

This game better give me t4 Kabr

[tight talon]

There's no reason to play contest mode when you get all the exclusive rewards

[trim wedge]

For context I'm here because I watched the Aztecross playthrough. Are the majority of players struggling more than they are?

[thin valve]

This oversoul is so random

[tight talon]

Worst, they add exclusive rewards to normal pool

[thin valve]

We did all 3 in 2.5h we are on 4th raid for 5h now

[karmic chasm]

I’m very confused by that mechanic. It seems to happen at random and end before I saw what occurred

[thin valve]

As soon as we start damaging boss we shoot oversole? (people with buff)

[vast sky]

#lfg-others

[bitter estuary]

nice, i hope we can clear 4th one

[karmic chasm]

I’ll join Crota normal with you

[cyan tide]

There's only like 80 teams across all servers that have cleared the whole raid

[trim wedge]

#💭│main-chat message

[karmic chasm]

He took forever to clear it tbh

[cyan tide]

World's first was like 3-4 hours after release? This raid is rough

[bitter estuary]

yes

[karmic chasm]

Monolith is a joke in comparison

I’ve only attempted Another Calamity abyss one time yesterday. We made it about halfway

[bitter estuary]

my skills and coordinations are about the average player but i think most ppl are stuck on 2/3

[cyan tide]

I think we finished abyss after 3 or so attempts but then we were stuck on the bridge for like 6 hours

[karmic chasm]

We weren’t on voice chat so we just weren’t going fast enough

[trim wedge]

Do you think having the instructions there makes it easier, harder or the same difficulty? Would it be another Salvations Edge if the instructions wern't there?

[noble orbit]

Rip I dont think I can complete calamity 🥲

[indigo yarrow]

guys is there a chanel for lfg?

[cyan tide]

It's a lot more about execution than knowledge, my team had bridge completely figured out after 3 hours but it still took us a long time to actually clear it

[karmic chasm]

Same brother

[bitter estuary]

#lfg-great-hunt

[noble orbit]

I cant even finish the abyss part an thats the easiest

[karmic chasm]

Yep.

[indigo yarrow]

ty kind one

[drowsy cypress]

same as in World of warcraft mounts

[tight talon]

Yeah people really out here think there's gonna be people who keep doing harder content after they attained the exclusive rewards.

Even though the reward pool is same per pinnacle

[drowsy cypress]

thay get cool dynamic emblem

[tight talon]

Yeah they got 8 days to get it I think.

[cyan tide]

There's 3 emblems exclusive to contest mode

[tight talon]

Again anyone who gets that then, won't bother to do the entire thing again unless they are helping their friends or group

[cyan tide]

2 of them you can only get during leaderboard rush phase

[tight talon]

Yeah one is dynamic, one is with time and one is just normal design

[karmic chasm]

One of them is still challenge mode but later in the week. I wish it had matchmaking

Tbh I wish challenge mode had matchmaking just for the sake of it

[grizzled blade]

How long is left for the rush phase?

[karmic chasm]

Today

[noble orbit]

21h

[cyan tide]

Ends tomorrow at 10am est

[grizzled blade]

I’d better get grinding lol

[twilit thistle]

🥺

[karmic chasm]

How tf are you doing duo on bridge

[novel quest]

Actually I don't wanna leak tech

[karmic chasm]

-_-

[hollow sedge]

i doubt they are duoing contest mode

[novel quest]

Lmfao okay just wait for me and ES9's YouTube video to go out

[twilit thistle]

🥺 👉 👈

[karmic chasm]

I simply don’t have the time to sit down and do it

[noble orbit]

My downfall of being decent in this game, having the ppl to do it with xD

[hidden carbon]

No you don’t. It’s straight gonna make you ragequit

[noble orbit]

Back to the d1 days havent done a single raid

[novel quest]

😭yeah for at least some of the encounters a lot of communication is needed

[karmic chasm]

I don’t really ragequit ever. Used to teach new lights Vault of Glass and we could be on oracles for a hour if I didn’t solo it.

I only leave if half the team has already left

[twilit thistle]

Why was ur original stream muted on yt. i was watching

[obsidian cairn]

is there an up to date website/google doc where I can see recommended builds/weapon rolls/dps stuff like that?

[novel quest]

I got a new mic and forgot to switch the inputs 😭

[vernal beacon]

My personal flaw is not ragequitting, spent 6 hours last night trying to help get a challenge mode clear and we couldn’t get past 2nd encounter no matter how much instruction I gave

[shadow flax]

Looking for crotas group

[karmic chasm]

Yea I just sit through it for some reason.
I joined a challenge run by accident last night and only realized when my Ning had one dash

[karmic chasm]

#lfg-great-hunt challenge or normal?

[shadow flax]

Challenge

[vernal beacon]

Meanwhile members of my original squad who asked if I could join them during the middle of helping said squad got a leaderboard spot lol

[twilit thistle]

You had one job. There was like no audio at all too 😭 which led me to having like 4 steams open to try and figure out what you were doing

[cobalt barn]

lol the aztecross stream in the corner

[novel quest]

Real I actually took a massive L still got #5 NA but it's not good enough coulda been way better if not for silly mistakes

[twilit thistle]

Most ppl were getting lucky by just guessing. On our server right now only 55 fireteams have cleared it

[tight talon]

34 for mine

[twilit thistle]

😂

[noble orbit]

Its hella bad

How much was the onslaught completion?

[vernal beacon]

It’s just that hard getting a squad of 6 together that stay for the entire thing and are good enough to complete

[twilit thistle]

There isnt even a top 600. I scrolled. 295 light bearers completed it.

[vernal beacon]

In this content your team is only as strong as your weakest link

[tight talon]

Nearly 2k? Unless I am misremembering

[noble orbit]

And then this one barely 100 rip

[vernal beacon]

I gotta find a squad where I’m the weakest link, not the leader lmao

[noble orbit]

I’ll just stick to being casual

[tight talon]

Yeah NA + EU is less than 100 after APAC and LATAM were merged

[noble orbit]

Solo content

[noble orbit]

Its like me back in d1 never done a single raid

[tight talon]

I enjoy raids and hard stuff, till I got people to enjoy it with.

If people aren't there, I just hate the raid. No particular reason

[noble orbit]

Like from start to finish I completed some random stages of a few cause I got carried

[twilit thistle]

Too difficult in all the wrong ways.

[noble orbit]

Welp I keep tryna have some copium but I’ll pass on the calmity

[summer kite]

Been throwing pinnacle at the matchmaking Crota and finally got an exotic after about 350ish and of course its Jotunn and not Symmetry 😭

[tight talon]

You basically don't get Symmetry unless it's a weekly cache

[cobalt barn]

gratz on the toaster xD

[twilit thistle]

wdym i got it on like my 8th run thru one of them

[tight talon]

Lucky. I emptied my reserves, not even a single exotic copy

[summer kite]

The text says it has a higher droprate just like the previous raid, just weekly cache is 15% chance for exotic and just pinnacle is 5% D:

[tight talon]

Just pinnacle is 3% iirc

[summer ledge]

First try. We take them.

[summer ledge]

Now later when I get my laptop updated I can actually do the raid.

[modest plume]

@signal oak get your butt back here

[rotund raptor]

Since when was this game more active

[lean burrow]

and as soon as they broke him crota teleported to the portal

[sturdy geyser]

give me some

[true mauve]

Idk, my kids are killin me today cant sit and play until later. Tried Rossi in challenge mode today, he aint him 😭 cant pop precision shinkas in 1 tap

[hollow sedge]

So wait, are the Another Calamity rewards based on team or individual?

[hollow sedge]

individual

LFG 3 more members for Crota Deathsinger ASP high power (Jaren /helast ) NA SEVER

[quaint flame]

on third crota another calamity, one left to go

[twilit thistle]

😭 this is not the proper channel for that.

[willow siren]

will they extend the leaderboard rush it says only 20hrs left and only 40 clears one EMEA/APAC

[twilit thistle]

Yea if they dont do that I think the community will be upset cuz they didnt even have a proper start timer. I still doubt they do anything

dont use it for jaren 😭

[karmic chasm]

The bow is horrible on this raid

[bitter estuary]

contest.

we're on the 4th one and maru can't keep up with the void shields on the ogres

[true mauve]

Like so bad 😭

[karmic chasm]

I’ve been using Kabr instead because he has Total Lockdown

[hollow sedge]

focus 1 at a time

[wheat ferry]

3 HH is the play apparently

[karmic chasm]

I have a theory Rossi is still better than Kabr overall, but not in these encounters

[true mauve]

I been using Kabr instead because its cope rossi. He even gets the same Super wall except his moves with him and does real dmg 😭

[karmic chasm]

When is it not the play tbh

[empty kettle]

We all cope in different ways

[weary ivy]

will symmerty be availibe to get after contest is over?

[karmic chasm]

Turncoat

[true mauve]

There are parts his bubble would be lit but Ikora can also draw them intogether

[bitter estuary]

we're seriously STILL stuck in 4th raid and it's like 4 hours in i think? lol

[true mauve]

Watch a video

Ikora for 3rd encounter would be lit, dropping a TTF and nova on swordbearer cluster

[bitter estuary]

we did, also for 3rd enc with ikora, half of our team died like 8 times in a row, but thanks

[karmic chasm]

Change of subject, but I’m claiming it @true mauve

[true mauve]

Tell them to stop dieing 😭

[karmic chasm]

I’m going full Timothée Chalamet and just believing in my Rossi

[true mauve]

Rossi wont carry but he can do his job

[karmic chasm]

He was never gonna carry lol

[true mauve]

I pump Kabrs wpn dmg like 84% with artifacts i can do 111k to precision shinkas with Arby on challenge bridge 💀

[karmic chasm]

The only thing Rossi is carrying me to is a 250k score in calamity because my teammates were playing with their eyelids glued shut

[karmic chasm]

That’s smart given you only get the first catalyst

[true mauve]

Just doesnt die unless not paying attention

[glacial elk]

Is anyone here on the Emea server?

[true mauve]

They are making the game harder as we go, its going to start phasing out lightbearers 😭

[karmic chasm]

Slowly but surely

[vocal mango]

On crota now and then will be on leaderboards 😭

[oak frigate]

Is anyone here can help me NA sever with Crota

[karmic chasm]

If there’s a gap between when Rossi becomes unplayable and when Cayde drops, that’s when I’d quit

[worldly hazel]

Anyone got symmetry yet

[cobalt barn]

would love'd the new kabr even more if they havent given him 2 plink-plonk guns. wish he'd kept his pulse rifle

[true mauve]

For precision shinkas and solar shields yes...

[grizzled blade]

It’s not too bad on other elemental shields tbf

[true mauve]

You pick your loadout based on content. No 1 good answer for all

[pulsar coral]

yeah true, just that for some characters theres one bis for all content

[true mauve]

I swapped between Arby/RC and Lassi/TL depending on the crota raid we did

[supple nymph]

Is it better to run arbalest or symmetry on Kabr?

I can only pick one because I have limited resources

[true mauve]

RC was clutch on 3rd encounter because of boss DPS, Arby destroyed swordbearers and precision shinkas on bridge. 2 diff BiS loadouts same dude

[true mauve]

Give it some time and wait, symmetry just dropped it needs some heavy testing. Rule of thumb is most times power wpn>primary

[twilit thistle]

😂

[true mauve]

If you play HH id max Arby no questions asked. Kabr doesnt have an apparent overly good use on 3 man cal ops teams when you can run a HH in his place that does more dmg using same LFR

[true mauve]

1/3 - 1/12

I need to lock in

[karmic chasm]

Why does it say “starts in”

[twilit thistle]

No! it says "ended".

[karmic chasm]

I like Rossi too much to abandon him, but I’m glad I like Kabr too

[karmic chasm]

Bizarre

[twilit thistle]

Not to mention the ones everyone wants have no context as to what happens.

[bitter estuary]

absolute crap

its why my pack is literally squeezing as much time as possible on ts

[pulsar coral]

another calamity is hard man wtf i cant find anyone who knows how to do ts

[true mauve]

I value him and he is still probably coolest in game, he just underperforms and is buggy. Super don't even work right. I can't keep dumping resources into him 😭

[karmic chasm]

I can lol

I already have Kabr more than high enough for everything

[true mauve]

I have 3 months+ of artifact and exotic weapon farming I skipped on 😅

Im trying to build em all right now

[cerulean belfry]

Guys anyone from NA down to help me in Crota another calamity? I have only completed the first one.

[twilit thistle]

@vocal hawk Can you provide official clarification? Do the rewards start on next reset for the first tab (First clear), (or do these rewards end). For the second tab (ranking rewards), when are these issued (or when does the chance to get it end)? On the rankings it just says it refreshes.

[stark forge]

how can something refresh when it ends

[bitter estuary]

netease prolly fired their qa team for ai ||/s||

[pulsar coral]

Man everyone keeps dying to the swinging spikes

[true mauve]

🤣

[hollow sedge]

idk what to use it for tbh

[raw warren]

hi

[cyan tide]

The UI is just broken, leaderboard phase ends tomorrow at 10am est

[blissful tinsel]

Yea nobody knows how to do any of the Croat’s phases

Every party I’m in fails lol

[stark forge]

even the vets are sweating

[pulsar coral]

Same
3 out of the last

[blissful tinsel]

If the game had mics on by default I think puzzle games would be easier

[cyan tide]

Crota is very straightforward, way more simple than bridge and deathsinger

[blissful tinsel]

But they discourage mic chat by having it off by default

[twilit thistle]

Then what starts?

[vast sky]

And yet harder

[cyan tide]

Nothing, the UI is wrong

They made a lot of mistakes this patch

[vast sky]

Real

[pulsar coral]

Man 3 out o fthe last 6 games i played in the into the abyss mode people die on the podium before we even drop down into the tunnel like HOW

[twilit thistle]

[vast sky]

All encounters are basically impossible without vc

[blissful tinsel]

Lots of bad players

[cyan tide]

If it's challenge they're probably dying to the chalice lol

[pulsar coral]

Yea thats whats appening

[cyan tide]

Doing challenge without comms is just asking to have a bad time

[pulsar coral]

Ive actually had a consistent number of people using vc, like half do in a 6 person fireteam, but its just them screaming about how they died to the swinging spikes and then just leaving the game

Queueing with randoms in this is worse than calamity bc of comms

[weary ivy]

sounds like crota

[vast sky]

Lfg, dont do que with randoms-?

[cyan tide]

At least regular mode is so simple you can do it with randoms
Week 1 Issakis was a nightmare, people refused to step on the plates

[pulsar coral]

Man I was trying to be hopeful lmao

[vast sky]

@old current also boog they haven't fixed crota last stand glitch yet, theres a high likihood he will be invisible at the end and invincible while hes invisible and both him and the ads from bridge that got hot fixed dont seem to respective damage reduction sources so he will one shot regardless of anything outside of basically maxed maru shield during final stand if he is bugged, he also has a tendency to glitch through the floor and bug out the stadium till you die of the countdown, if any of this happens reload your instance

[cyan tide]

I feel like they overcorrected after seeing people struggle with Onslaught, regular Crota is almost idiot proof

[vast sky]

(I didnt know if you cleared crota yet or naur)

[old current]

Just got thru first 2 encs really smoothly

[twilit thistle]

I am already confused by why there would be no actual hint of it ending tomorrow. The issue before this was truncation. The information conveyed was true then. Extending it is warranted, anyways. First 600 to clear it should get the animated emblem. If less than 600 can clear it, its a bad raid.

[vast sky]

Did you get the bridge easter egg?

[karmic chasm]

Impossible to find a good team for abyss another calamity

[old current]

nope

[karmic chasm]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but the enlightened can see which symbol to shoot? Because my enlightened teammates just do nothing

[karmic chasm]

Where’s that at? I got the first one

[vast sky]

Next time you do it stand infront of the door way at the end with two people next to eachother (after you clear the encounter)

[stark forge]

enlighten can see but cant shoot it

[pulsar coral]

Did you clear into the abyss

[karmic chasm]

Not on calamity no

[karmic chasm]

They don’t even try to ping then :(

[vast sky]

After you complete the encounter have two people stand side by side infront of the big door

[pulsar coral]

do you wanna join my fireteam?

[karmic chasm]

I can but I’ve been running no vc with people hoping they know what they are doing

[pulsar coral]

Do you have a mic rn

[karmic chasm]

No I’d have to set up my mic and everything. I’m on my phone. Thanks for the offer though.

[sonic sandal]

Bonsoir il y a t'il des joueurs français ici qui sont volontaires pour faire du Cropta ?

[vast sky]

Pov me on phone running discord vc and the game

[pulsar coral]

Lol im doing the same thing

[drowsy cypress]

dunno why devs dont do raids on normal and hard separately. Hard with all challenge mech but no balance, with weekly rewards, and normal. Sad devs do intresting mech and just throw it away after 1 week. Kinda stupid

[vast sky]

There are separate game modes

But i agree ^

[drowsy cypress]

i feel sad when intreasing contend cutted down

[vast sky]

Real

[drowsy cypress]

balance is hard for most players ya, but without it it still be good challenge for group with comms

[pulsar coral]

pingtomoon the goat

[vast sky]

Go away yeeyee ahh haircut

[drowsy cypress]

best u can get on phone

[pulsar coral]

I was looking for a Web3 and AI web, app, and mobile app developer, actively engaged in all aspects of continuous development, long-term collaboration, and short-term development

[vast sky]

This is legit ai

[pulsar coral]

No way this guy's AI the message looks authentic

[drowsy cypress]

Nah, we soon in Russia get web 0.5 instead 3😢

[vast sky]

Even if it aint why are we self promoting jobs in here

[drowsy cypress]

Mesh web🫃

[worldly hazel]

How is it?

[pulsar coral]

Dude I'm joking lmao of course its a bot

[compact blade]

What is this spreading darkness when fighting crota?? What are we supposed to do?

[compact blade]

Kill him before it gets to 10x?

[neat valley]

you have to kill that mf

[compact blade]

Before it gets to 10??

[stark forge]

only 75 more to go its cheap

[vast sky]

It out damages a good chunk of heavies

[vast sky]

Yes

[oak temple]

I completed Crota's end without actually understanding anything. Congrats to myself.

[vast sky]

Uh? Challenge?

[oak temple]

haahah no, I'm just a scrub trying to be positive in life.

[thin valve]

Only took me 9h

[vast sky]

Same king i just started the game

[oak temple]

me got no frends so events like this are hopeless for me personally, still hyped for everyone else and the streams!

[vast sky]

Same king

[cobalt barn]

ah the life of a fellow solo-gamer lol

[tall ivy]

anyone know why my mouse pointer disappears while in mumu player fullscreen

[tight talon]

[thorny frost]

https://tenor.com/view/broke-no-cash-gif-25565154

[cobalt barn]

people can no chill at times

[short locust]

I had to read that 3x before it made any sense to me

[tight talon]

[empty kettle]

Some people should have their Internet access disabled

[thorny frost]

That escalated fast

[oak temple]

does Ikora's event use the same pull ticket?

[empty kettle]

Will likely use something else with a different name

[oak temple]

I'mma wait for them to turn into normal tickets

[thorny frost]

We don’t actually know if Ikora is next. That. Is just current guess based on the season info we have

[cobalt barn]

if ikora is next, is finally getting her canon shotgun she so deserves?

[indigo solar]

Bridge skip is real

[violet sonnet]

@tight talon if its ikora and we get truth im coming to you and taking your tea and coffee away

[bitter estuary]

sigh

[elder wing]

They don’t

[karmic chasm]

It’s fine I guess. Seems fun to switch between modes. I won’t use it

[violet sonnet]

Hows everyone Evening going

I saw earlier that Leaderboard on EU is still cooked

[bitter estuary]

horrid

[karmic chasm]

Lmaooo

[elder wing]

How so?

[violet sonnet]

We arent even close to 200 People cleared i think

[hidden carbon]

Damn

[violet sonnet]

i checked earlier when i woke up how much i dropped and i was like 99

[elder wing]

There’s 200 people in total in the whole game…

[hidden carbon]

It’s that rough? I been busy with family stuff all weekend so haven’t gotten a chance to run anything yet

[elder wing]

What is ur timer?

[violet sonnet]

Deadass might just get the Ghost without even having trying to improve Times

[elder wing]

What time did you guys complete on?

[violet sonnet]

38 smth

we had 40 originally but then we reran 1st cause we reran it with a new guy and wasted like 2 min goofing around

and not atleast rerunning that rly quick wouldve been just inting

[oak temple]

I skipped Maru, if Ikora's out and she is only 50% power of Maru, I'm pulling tfo

[vocal mango]

LETS F GOOOOO

[tight talon]

So this is Christmas

[violet sonnet]

Tbh at this Point everyone on EU who clears will get the Emblem atleast

[tight talon]

Fite me

[violet sonnet]

where Contest Clear

[tight talon]

Not gonna do it

[violet sonnet]

Coward

[tight talon]

The fox believes the grapes are sour 🙂

[tight talon]

No, I am not sitting there for 5 hours + getting brain damage cause nobody can figure out what the hell they are supposed to do

[prisma nest]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-lightsaber-revenge-of-the-sith-mace-windu-palpatine-gif-25924750

[magic yoke]

It wasn't that bad lol

[vocal mango]

I beat aztecrosses team lol

[tight talon]

Nah, terrible mode. I rather watch streamers speedrun normal Crota End and lowest timer gets world's first than any of that 💩

[magic yoke]

I think they are the bottom of NA leader board

[raw ibex]

Salut y’a pas des français chaud pour croyable end et qui connaissent de préférence svp ! Venez mp si c le cas merci 🙂

[vocal mango]

Looks like a skill issueeee

[violet sonnet]

Well theres Guides now

[vocal mango]

Yea they are 58th out of 60th lol

[tight talon]

Fine by me having people to play with is a skill check then it's really bad design

[empty kettle]

Lol

[violet sonnet]

Surely they fixed the invisible Thralls now

[magic yoke]

I hit 11th and then decided thats good enough lol

[vast arch]

they did

[magic yoke]

They did like 40 mins after release was a hot fix

[vocal mango]

🤣 thats the point of a 6 man raid

[karmic chasm]

Agreed

[snow stream]

the invisible thralls werent really an issue

just annoying

[violet sonnet]

thats cap

[magic yoke]

Nah they def sucked lol

[short locust]

Crota is ded

[violet sonnet]

it was not fixed on eu for what felt like ages

[snow stream]

yeah sucked but wasnt something to make or break a run

[magic yoke]

It was in NA

[prisma nest]

crota been dead since 2014

[tight talon]

Doesn't matter, people I will be randomly running with will have not seen them. So what's the point to bother trying

[violet sonnet]

Bruh what the Hek

[thin valve]

I thought it was like some modifier for totem lol

[violet sonnet]

Thats when you ask them in VC about a Mechanic and they just self report

Same Thing our GM/RL does in WoW when he notices someone messing a Mechanic up

[snow stream]

after realising our team just jumped about and told others we had invisible thralls and had ppl who could see them shoot them

[tight talon]

Again nah. You are confusing intentional hard stuff for raid mechanics. A normal raid is clearable without effort with randoms, intentionally hard ain't without a dedicated team

[violet sonnet]

we just ran 3 estellas and it solved the problem

[snow stream]

maybe its what costed us the 15 mins between us and wf but doubt

[violet sonnet]

for some reason estella summons could target and kill the non rendered thralls, so if you just put estellas on the plates it was a non issue

[snow stream]

yeah

[tight talon]

Bold of you to assume they would respond

I have made peace it's not for me and I'll intentionally always hate this mode till I get people to play it with going forward

[thin valve]

We nearly cleared crota with 5x jaren and maru once lol

[violet sonnet]

need to get oomfie carry

[short locust]

I never understood the issue with invisible thrall ngl. I was playing Tan and theyre a non issue as long as youre paying attention

[true mauve]

Was running this morning they seem to be gone

[twilit thistle]

Looks like I will be uninstalling the game tonight.

[snow stream]

yeah its all fixed now

[tight talon]

noo don't

[slow sigil]

FINALLY MADE IT! With a 25 Minute Crota Fight xD

[rose turret]

sweet god finally

[true mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/lucky-patrick-star-spongebob-lucky-you-hmph-gif-17192509682845533517

[violet sonnet]

time to bully @tight talon into doing the raid with you

[rose turret]

8/50 matches where people know whete to put the f.. banner

[violet sonnet]

cause he has a na acc (and i dont)

[cobalt barn]

imo im on the fence to try to new raid, my computer takes a min to render stuff in rising alot of the time (potato rig goes brrrrr)

[rose turret]

big complain i have for game maybe couod be fixed in game or nah i cant hear others guns and abilities i hate that

[true mauve]

I gotta do some research on 4th encounter but I got the first 3 down good

[tight talon]

What, no I don't

I only got APAC and a dead EU account that got replaced

[karmic chasm]

There’s a small chance I could run later with you for the static emblem

[old current]

@vast sky Could use a helhest to fill for 3rd enc if you're still down

[karmic chasm]

Normal or contest. I assume contest

[old current]

contest

[twilit thistle]

😕 The hype died yesterday. If a tree falls in a forest, does it make a sound?

[devout void]

i hope taniks can help you, your best friend 🙏

[karmic chasm]

Bro idc if I miss it tbh, I missed the last one too

[true mauve]

I want to try and do em all in 4-5 hours. First 2 should take 30ish mins to get through with a couple wipes 3rd will take an hour+ then just crota left

[twilit thistle]

Taniks didnt clear it either.

[tight talon]

The forest is always eternally grateful to tree. No matter whether it stands or falls

[karmic chasm]

An HOUR? ok nevermind 😭

[twilit thistle]

But why would i invest another $1000 if nobody is gonna hear the tree fall?

[true mauve]

Wipes can be 15+ minute setbacks. I played for 10+ hours yesterday.

[true mauve]

Dont have to spend to play

[tight talon]

Valid response. But you only account for the sound of the tree falling. Tree in itself provides shade, fruits and homes to everyone. Hell even after it falls, it helps other trees, fungi and assimilates into mud

[cobalt barn]

think i've spent....60$ total since the games release..?

[true mauve]

Games paid me a $5 gift card im +5 to the good

F2P game gave me money for playing

[twilit thistle]

How am I going to get in a match, to hear the tree fall, if nobody will Q to hear the tree fall with me?

[true mauve]

You spent all your time homing others and not yourself. You must do as I and wade through the BS manure around base of tree uproot and find other trees so you can all sing in harmony and grow tall instead of fall

We are at our best when together with friends. Nobody is a solo hero, even superheroes have teams of regular people helping them

[twilit thistle]

😂

[violet sonnet]

What kind of philosopical Talk has started here

I go floor Tank in my Game and suddenly ya all talking over Trees falling

[karmic chasm]

I think I’ll pass

[empty kettle]

It's just the regular insanity of the community

[karmic chasm]

Fr just play the game tbh

[violet sonnet]

i mean its like what
6 min for abyss
12-15 min bridge
10 min for singer
12-15 min for crota

Cause lets be real your not speedclearing 2nd,3rd and 4th encounter on 1st clear

[true mauve]

Np, im going to try and take a group through all 4 in 4-5 hours

[night spoke]

tbh for singer its better to try and 1 phase then deal with swordbearer spawn spam

[pale sun]

Guys, is there any pack I can join to clear challenge mode of Crotas. Can't find a proper team! EMEA Server

[true mauve]

I figure 4-5 hours if they can catch on quick 🙏

[violet sonnet]

You gotta account for Exhaustion

We couldve been technically 5th Group to clear on EU maybe but on Crota we just kept choking

We got to Final Stand and we essentially got a 2nd Wind cause we played like 200% better then until Kill to the Point we almost 1 Phased his reg HP Bar on Kill

Ofc didnt go for 1 Phase cause we prob wouldve wiped to Final Stand

[rotund raptor]

I give up on contest mode

[twilit thistle]

If taniks cant clear it its not worth clearing

[violet sonnet]

Also tbh atp if anyone is still trying to clear Contest just go for a regular Clear instead of a Leaderboard Clear (if no premade)

[rotund raptor]

It took 1.5 day for 1st stage

[true mauve]

4-5hours flew by tbh 😅

[rotund raptor]

Idek why im pushing on contest lol im just a chill player

[true mauve]

To say you experienced it

[rotund raptor]

Btq i spent another 10 pulls on kabbr got 1 rossi and need 1 mkre for t5

[rotund raptor]

Yh but i thought the chances for symetry were higher and then i learned it the same

[true mauve]

I didnt full clear eclipse, I had to stop because of work. I did get to experience all 3 encounters though and was fun. Crota is looking like it will be same but I still got to experience it because once ir goes away challenge mode dont come back and the mechanics are lost

[rotund raptor]

True

[twilit thistle]

👀

[indigo solar]

I will we just got tired and sloppy yesterday

[true mauve]

Dont need a speedclear, just an "I did it, I was there"

[indigo solar]

We also weren't running with our normal crew

[true mauve]

Because you need me 👀

[rotund raptor]

Atleast i did experience it since i didnt in D1 and D2 so im pleased

[karmic chasm]

Yooo let’s go lol. Rossi is supreme

[twilit thistle]

The game claims it starts tomorrow. I mean idk if its worth clearing.

[old current]

The sound of the bow firing on repeat is hypnotising me into being a sub-median player what is going on

I am chugging coffee

[twilit thistle]

It both ends and refreshes at the same time. It both starts and "ended" at the same time.

[indigo solar]

I was designated Umeko and she actually does no damage it's insane

Like 10% max

Even Izzy only hits for like 300k a shot with full buffs

[twilit thistle]

yea i coulda told u that. I was able to get 5x more damage in 30s on estella using everything than I could using umeko. (note this is referring to the firing range)

[old current]

I'm on helhest and the motion of breaking arc shields during ir yut is draining my brain juice

[twilit thistle]

umeko is cracked when the enemies are lower level tbh or as an actual support that helps the main dps character. (feeding)

like the first encounter on normal mode. Umeko can outpace nings. All u gotta do is jump. But i if u take her down to t0, even jaren is much faster.

[slow sigil]

Don't 😂 took us also 16 hours and a 25 minute crota fight but we finally made it

[rotund raptor]

The bridge with randoms is quite difficult and i myself am nit the best too😂

[slow sigil]

Oh 😅

The bridge is BS because of invisible enemy bug

[cobalt barn]

lol bridge encounters seem to be the achilles heel to these raids

[empty kettle]

They should make more bridge encounters

[twilit thistle]

I mean why isnt the boss on a bridge fr. "The Bridge" would be a good raid.

[slow sigil]

We got stuck there for like 2 hours, but phase 3 and 4 was each 6 hours...😂 The amount of Mobs and mechanics in 3 is just over the top

[empty kettle]

The Fallen Bridge

[cobalt barn]

just got flash back to legion in WoW fightinging the demon guy on the bridge over lake of fel lava

[white fossil]

man why is arbalest damage so high against shinkas 😭

[naive ingot]

👀

[indigo solar]

This has supposedly been fixed

[slow sigil]

Oh rly?!

[indigo solar]

I haven't played it legit since last night tho so I can't personally confirm

[slow sigil]

Ffs we cleared that yesterday

[indigo solar]

Actually yesterday afternoon, not last night

I did do this tho

[slow sigil]

I mean on challenge 😅 not that easy thing

[twilit thistle]

Unless Thatdonfc or taniks locks in it would appear I am not gonna be attempting challenge mode

[indigo solar]

Yeah me too, I was just messing around in normal trying to bridge skip today

[slow sigil]

That's... absolutely no achievement at all but congrats?

[indigo solar]

Yeah not helpful at all bc you need sword anyways and it takes longer than building bridge but hey it exists

[short locust]

Neato

[tight talon]

Well i hope it happens if you change your mind to do it on EMEA I am still here

[proper needle]

Anyone know if they will do another hellhess rerun banner

[twilit thistle]

Needed the one who yells at everyone when they do it wrong (and isnt wrong themsleves). Talent only goes so far.

[cobalt fjord]

Damn one of the team left to sleep when we got to crota and we close to kill him

[fallow mirage]

It’s Sunday night evening. Makes sense tbh. I wouldn’t wanna miss work for a mobile game raid either

[cobalt fjord]

Fax i wanna sleep as well but were already that close

[slow sigil]

So you guys think 100 will manage to clear it at all? 😅

[karmic chasm]

Saw you playing! Did you complete normal and contest?

[fallow mirage]

I just did the contest mode last night. It took like 6 and a half hours
Not touching that mode again. If I’m still in the top 100 ratings by the end of the day, then we chilling. If not, so be it

We finished at like 44 minutes or something

But given the pace at which the clears are going, I’m not even sure if there’ll be 100 clears

[cobalt fjord]

Yup

And the emblem for top 600 individual its now 240 something

[fallow mirage]

I think for NA we’re at like 319 or something, last I checked

[cobalt fjord]

With 57 mins so i guess if u just end it no matter what u will get the emb

Sad how the game died in 2 months

The last leaderboard rush (eclipse ) u would see this chat not stop moving

[indigo solar]

Tbh this specifically is less "game dead" and more "this contest mode is actually pretty close to a d2 contest mode difficulty"

[fallow mirage]

I mean, I almost missed this eclipse myself. I only just came back to do it cuz one of my friends mentioned it

[twilit thistle]

alternate timeline.

I want a lighthouse if its gonna be like d2.

[cobalt fjord]

Both of them maybe . And most of them skip the leaderboard rush cause the last time they didnt mention the title will goes after 14 days after people work hard to get top 1

[fallow mirage]

Nah pvp is buns in this game

Trials was dog water in d2 as well, with all the cheaters

[hidden carbon]

Yeah that’s kinda dumb tbh. Makes it not worth as much

[cobalt fjord]

Yup like we was 1 in emea and all of my team members didnt play this time

And the top2 in my friends list didnt play either

[twilit thistle]

thats why i want it. They coudlnt release it without making it better. The changes to shifting gates killed pvp.

[fallow mirage]

They can’t make it better. It’s Destiny PvP. It’ll always suffer from the same pitfalls.
Also, gacha game PvP will always be p2w or unfair in one way or another, even with dupes disabled

[twilit thistle]

I know several f2p players that would destroy me in sg

[true mauve]

Pvp is super balanced in Iron Bar, they did good killing SG it just needed a new pvp mode to go with it. PvEvp is garbage.

[twilit thistle]

Wolf is one of the strongest characters in pvp.

[true mauve]

If Iron Bar had a leaderboard SG wouldnt be a thing

Well leaderboard and open all week

[errant narwhal]

Went from 38 to 61 since last night, hopefully staying in top 100

[soft bobcat]

Any S3 weapons worth building? Gotta dump my paramets before the week resets

[twilit thistle]

Exactly why we need something. Iron bar isnt even a complete gamemode. No destiny game had had so few maps for pvp. No shax 😭 no iron banner. No trials of osiris. Shifting gates is actually better than gambit tho ngl

[errant narwhal]

Doesn’t Iron Bar only have one map

[soft bobcat]

2 I think 🤔

[hearty salmon]

is there a place where i can get the high res pictures of the character icons in the selection menu?

[errant narwhal]

Whats the other one? I’ve only played it during the tutorial so it was the map they used for snowballs

[twilit thistle]

Ones mostly indoors ones mostly outdoors. The indoor one ur not remembering.

[soft bobcat]

Other one is Lord Felwinter's house

[errant narwhal]

Don’t think I’ve ever played it ngl

[soft bobcat]

Wait no Snowball one was lord felwinter

[twilit thistle]

i think bannerfall could be ported 🥺

[errant narwhal]

Snowball one was the the ported map

[soft bobcat]

Other one is yea mostly indoors with quite a few small corridors

[tropic swift]

1 Map is Vostok aka Felwinter Peak.
The other i can't recall the name of.

[tight talon]

It's Lanyue Factory

I mean Arena, from D2 rebranded as Lanyue

[soft bobcat]

lmao I actually wanted to call it Arena for some reason. But for some reason idk it feels different or smaller. Maybe cause of 3rd person idk

[prisma nest]

3rd person is the best thing about destiny rising imo and it changes the entire game 💯🤠

[tight talon]

I might be wrong, but it's called Meltdown on D2

[soft bobcat]

Yaeh the 3rd person is pretty well done I like it

[shut wedge]

is there any bugs for contest crota?

[soft bobcat]

Ah yep t hat's it 100%

[prisma nest]

now that i think about it, 3rd person might be why warframe is so good 🤔

[soft bobcat]

There was a point where I hated 3rd person shooters 😅 The Division got them to grow on me

[raw glade]

it's kind of crazy to think this Kabr event is giving us 60 permanent draws when the event ends. Wild value lol

[karmic ore]

@trail fractal is doing raid carries dm him for inv

[trail fractal]

Nooooooo. Bingo cleared on mobile so he is way better than me

[prisma nest]

watch them add praedyth

or eriana-3

or wei ning 🤔🤔🤔

[soft bobcat]

@raw glade Have you built up a Stryker sword yet? Dismember Embrittle seems pretty nasty I'm trying to get one

[prisma nest]

hmmmm jolder sword 🤔

[soft bobcat]

Yeah we're Jolder enjoyers

[karmic chasm]

Yea I recently upped the perspective in 3rd person too, and it looks so good

[fallow mirage]

If only Jolder wasn’t completely powercrept and useless now

[karmic chasm]

@raw glade

[soft bobcat]

You just haven't seen a good Jolder ;)

[raw glade]

i don't even know what he means by that. Who powercrept Jolder lol?

[fallow mirage]

I’ve been the good Jolder. She doesn’t do anything anymore

[soft bobcat]

Right.

[raw glade]

I hit Master II and cleared arc expanse 40 with her. What else am I supposed to do?

[karmic chasm]

Maybe not in most of this raid but she’s fantastic all around. Unkillable rainbow element titan

[raw glade]

[fallow mirage]

Yeah, her damage isn’t as good as any of the new units and her survivability isn’t as good as something like Helhest or Ning Fei. If that’s not powercreep, idk what is

[soft bobcat]

What

[karmic chasm]

This is like when people have a strong opinion on Rossi, and then I drop the stats 😭

[raw glade]

I mean, her damage is better than Kabr. That's not really contestable. It's on par with Maru, just for different content.

[soft bobcat]

Not even worth going that far imo

[karmic chasm]

Not worth arguing you mean lol?

[fallow mirage]

Hell, Jolder got crept out of existence by Gwynn on game release. Even Maru does Jolder’s job better than her if we’re gonna simply compare defenders

[raw glade]

I put up similar damage on my Jaren and Jolder for their respective content, both in endgame content. This kid is talking out of his butt.

[soft bobcat]

As soon as they use themself and only themself as the benchmark nah I'm out

[fallow mirage]

https://tenor.com/view/doubt-press-x-la-noire-meme-x-button-gif-19259237

[karmic chasm]

Jaren and Jolder could probably clear almost all content in the game by themselves

[raw glade]

Pretty much everyone accepts Jolder > Gwynn now. Where have you even been?

[fallow mirage]

Since when? This kinda sounds like pure cope ngl

[raw glade]

Since the Partridge buff and more T6 Jolders making their presence felt.

[indigo solar]

Lmaooo how are you honestly saying Ning has higher survivability

[raw glade]

insanity. This bait is just....ugh

[indigo solar]

Jolder is honestly pretty strong now, she's been getting buffs consistently

[raw glade]

But he's been one of the good Jolders, trust him.

Please send a screenshot of your Jolder build and talent level.

[karmic chasm]

Well I had the opposite thing where someone tried to tell me Rossi’s super had good damage. He was like “I’m a Rossi main.”
Bro I’m quite possibly the Rossi main among a few others, idk what he was on about

[fallow mirage]

My Ning got bare survivability
If all ur abilities heal on cast and your abilities are always up, how u gonna die?

[soft bobcat]

I mean yea true I use myself as the benchmark a lot too. But I provide a lot of screenshots data etc to back it up at least

[indigo solar]

Jolder's abilities heal, are always up, and she has massive DR

[raw glade]

Serious question. Have you ever been above Expert II in calamity, or have you cleared expanse 40?

[indigo solar]

Plus, yknow, she can summon a barrier

And her ability healing actually overflows into overshield

[raw glade]

I reckon I've taken my Jolder further than you've ever taken your Ning.

[karmic chasm]

Here’s the thing, Jolder has access to good weapons across all elements, she’s virtually unkillable when played right, she can do crowd control and boss dps… she’s a jack of all trades

[fallow mirage]

What else u need from me lil bro?

[karmic chasm]

Oh boy

[raw glade]

so the answer is no

[karmic chasm]

Jim I’m here for you but Johnny about to drop like a 75k t6 😭

[raw glade]

You are not one of the good Jolders. TY for confirming my dude lol

[fallow mirage]

Expert 2? Lol I was in master before I stopped playing. I used to do expanse every 2 weeks before it reset and maxed out

[past ember]

can you 4 man the bridge on crota hard mode?

[raw glade]

So i've been in Master with Jolder and clearing expanse 40 three weeks in a row with her....and you haven't even been playing?

[karmic chasm]

Now I want to build Jolder. @raw glade what talent does she become viable at?

[indigo solar]

Man's running radiation and wondering why his survivability is bad

[fallow mirage]

Ay my bad for not funnelling a trash character

[honest kindle]

You can even calling anyone lil bro whilst flexing a 70k character…

[raw glade]

T4?

[karmic chasm]

Alright. I’ll keep her on the backburner but I might put my next choice chest into her

[rotund raptor]

Change those artefacts and ull see wht hes talking about

[soft bobcat]

It works well in certain setups, not with that slot 1 he has though.

[karmic chasm]

I hate that artifact like I hate spaghetti

[fallow mirage]

He wanted my Jolder that I haven’t touched since release. Ofc she’s not gonna be at like 76k light

[indigo solar]

There's pretty much always better options

[indigo solar]

Jolder's gotten like 5 buffs since release

[raw glade]

Bro, you said you were one of the good ones. 70k wasn't even enough for Master or Expanse 30. Stop gaslighting homie

[indigo solar]

And if you haven't played her why are you trying to make an opinion about her

[fallow mirage]

Nah I like radiation set on her cuz then I don’t have to wait for enemies to shoot me to build rage consistently. Shield throw doesn’t max out the bar unless ur at T6

[karmic chasm]

Jolder is a far better main than my choice, especially given just how many weapon builds are viable for her. She has so many good choices

[indigo solar]

70 is totally enough for 30, I've done it on 65 chars

[soft bobcat]

Nah being able to fuel your own rage is really nice.

[indigo solar]

That's what the taunt is for

[raw glade]

I honestly forgot expanse 30 was 67k

[fallow mirage]

Idk if ur just bad at the game or something but 70k is more than enough for master and expanse 30. But u do u ig

[raw glade]

no, definitely not master in calamity lol.

[fallow mirage]

Also, this is without seasonal power boost. She goes up higher with the 5 levels on weapon

[karmic chasm]

Jolder goes back to A tier btw. There was a debate when Rossi dropped that he was better at her role. I never agreed but was pressured to move them to the same tier for a while lmao.

[karmic chasm]

Who is your main btw, just wonderin

[raw glade]

Jim needs to get into expanse 40 and see what's up. I bet he can't clear with his Ning.

If Jim clears expanse arc 40 with Ning, which I cleared with my Jolder, I'll change my discord name to "JimIsGod" for a week

[fallow mirage]

I don’t main anything. I play whatever I need to in order to clear content. I do have T6 Helhest and T6 Estela tho. My Ning, Helhest, and Estela are all 71-72k (non seasonal)

[karmic chasm]

Jolder should technically be easier than Ning, and that’s due to this 40 modifier specifically being about survivability and not damage output. Sadly, while I have the survivability, my Rossi gets cooked still by enraged prec shinkas

[karmic chasm]

Honestly keep those in your back pocket with different weapon setups and you will be good for everything

[raw glade]

yeah, if you ackownedge that Jolder is good. He doesn't.

[twilit thistle]

If I had materials to upgrade the smg I would totally do this.

[fallow mirage]

I’ll prolly run it later this week. I’ll take u up on this offer then

[rotund raptor]

Wolfpack?

[raw glade]

Calamity Ops master is dead. I haven't gotten a single run in this week....

[indigo solar]

Arc expanse, so kulfi

[karmic chasm]

I really like Jolder. I just like Maru a little bit more which is why I moved on from Jolder as my void main.

[soft bobcat]

It's not very reliable and doesn't keep her Overshields topped up. With radiation you can keep Overshields flowing. Then if you have Undaunted Blazar slot 1 you're enjoying a lot of DR

[rotund raptor]

All are in crota soo

[karmic chasm]

I got an expert 2 run with my old pack leader today… he died twice and left (understandable, the match was a throw)

[bitter estuary]

guys im still doing 4th raid boss

i am NOT ok

[raw glade]

I'm down to run a few in expert with ya whenever

[soft bobcat]

:/ I hope you guys complete it I'm rooting for you

[indigo solar]

Or you could just use abundant planetesimal + ring of conversion bc it's viable on literally every char, definitely a worthwhile investment

Not meta, not even close but quite strong for everyone

(Except Ning)

[calm vortex]

Didnt they curb that on Jolder a while back?

[soft bobcat]

That doesn't help with the rage reducing the cooldown on the shield very much

[indigo solar]

It works with artifactual healing now

[indigo solar]

You have 9 seconds, and if you're hitting 4 enemies with shield you're usually getting at least 25% just from that

[indigo solar]

And abundant planetesimal procs whenever a projectile ability is aimed, not when released, so you can aim and cancel to heal but not consume ability energy

[fallow mirage]

Wdym not with that slot 1? Did the meta change or something?
Last I checked resolute conjunction was the only thing that actually worked with her kit. Granted, this was a long time ago

[twilit thistle]

Privileged. My team (consisting of one member, me) hasn’t been able to beat the first encounter.

[soft bobcat]

And there's also the benefit of Bellicose Radiation reducing damage over time from ALL dot's

[indigo solar]

The only char in the game without a projectile ability rn is Ning

[calm vortex]

Oh im blind I didnt see Abundant

[soft bobcat]

Resolute is still okay, but there's the range issue. Undaunted is better overall.

[fallow mirage]

Never heard of undaunted. Probably released when I stopped playing. I’ll look into tho

[soft bobcat]

Snipers in this game do the most damage. Having damage reduction within 15m is kinda.. idk not very reliable imo

[karmic chasm]

Thanks! I can run T1 Helhest 73k, T3 Kabr 73k, or even T6 Rossi at 75k. He’s obviously not best choice but I’m pretty good with him.
Anyway I’ll let you know if I’m running it at some point.

I would also mention I have Jaren but you have a much stronger one, so

[soft bobcat]

It came out with Maru in November. It's the best option with the radiaiton build imo

[karmic chasm]

I thought lfrs are the best dps (again)

[indigo solar]

They're very slightly worse

[soft bobcat]

I mean Sniper Mobs, NPC's, the Zealots Tracer Shanks etc

[indigo solar]

Ofc that's before factoring in characters actually running them

[twilit thistle]

[karmic chasm]

Damn 🥀
Love my lfrs. Wish Rossi had an lfr with a super that boosted damage passing through. My ideal Rossi build would be Crimson and EoL.

[twilit thistle]

And I wish Umeko was faster, and dealt more damage. 😞 tis the life of a 4 star

[calm vortex]

It does kinda suck Rossi's output is slightly RNG when it comes to his super since you want it to get shot a lot and sometimes the enemies just dont cooperate

[karmic chasm]

Oh shush she’s easily a closeted 5 star 😂

[calm vortex]

and in higher end stuff it probably gets shredded too fast to build up a lot of cascade

[karmic chasm]

Yes ideally it clears both ads and hits a major, but it can just whiff if they step to the left

[calm vortex]

Speaking of 4* DPS I was really sad when they went and tuned the internal math on stuff so Xuan Wei isnt triple dipping some buffs. now hes output is pretty average

[errant narwhal]

At least shes still pretty meta

Until we get a different debuff character

[karmic chasm]

In specialist I could hit 3 of the 6 shinkas protecting the boss and wipe them. Since then I’ve moved away from super boost and I also entered expert 2, so I don’t do nearly as much damage to them.

[vast arch]

Sup gamers

[errant narwhal]

Yo

[karmic chasm]

Ts soooo sick

[vast arch]

Everyone get their Another Calamity runs in?

[errant narwhal]

Finished mine last night, Crota was tougher than I expected

[karmic chasm]

No

[grave river]

It was a fun contest. I like this version of crota vs any other version personally

[vast arch]

Crota was the wall for us too last night

[errant narwhal]

The sword QTE was awesome and the final stand, invis crota in final stand was rough though

[vast arch]

omg same here, I enjoyed this one more than D2

[errant narwhal]

100% same

[vast arch]

Why not?

[karmic chasm]

No teams to play with, and I can’t dedicate several hours to it. I got 3/4 flawless clears on normal tho!

[grave river]

My whole team was making "whoaaaaaaaaaa wtf" noises during the qte lol

[errant narwhal]

It felt so cinematic lol

[karmic chasm]

That was sick ASF

[grave river]

It's really interesting how they managed to make a new spin on a raid that's been released so many times

[errant narwhal]

All the additions they made to the raid were great honestly, I really hope we see Vog modernized in the same way

[true mauve]

Anyone need a fresh run? 1-4?

[vast arch]

Yeah definitely need a few hours at least if you want a LB placement but if you just want the clear you can run with different groups

[errant narwhal]

Can you imagine a QTE with Aegis against Atheon and you’re playing Kabr? lol

[devout void]

my god what a raid finally, it was so hard to keep the same 6 people

[unborn turtle]

So is Symmetry > Polaris Lance?

[errant narwhal]

LB Run?

[karmic chasm]

I’ve been trying and they can’t even clear abyss. They keep taking the chalice from me when I’m about to place it and we wipe

[errant narwhal]

I must’ve got extremely lucky with my LFG

[devout void]

yes

[twilit thistle]

Bc everyone just finds another team

[karmic chasm]

Polaris was already borderline bad, symmetry is def better if you want an exotic in that slot

[vast arch]

I have some super secret tech to help with that

[grave river]

Grats man

[errant narwhal]

Nice!

[devout void]

i mean its first clear so we didnt try one phase, it was already hard to finish it everyone is tired

[true mauve]

If we get 4 other ppl who alrdy know how to run it then we can speed run it in like 2ish hours maybe

[karmic chasm]

Am I allowed to hear it 😭

[vast arch]

Yeah but you gotta like and subscribe first

IM JOKING

[unborn turtle]

Thanks! Just got Sym, so will swap it in

[errant narwhal]

I figured lol

[vast arch]

Join a group that's on Ir Yut or Crota so you know they are at least capable of completing the first 2 encounters

[true mauve]

He has to beat them to unlock them

[vast arch]

then see if they'll go back to do the others

[errant narwhal]

You have to clear the others first is the problem

[vast arch]

oh uhh

[karmic chasm]

I won’t use it because I really like my Total Lockdown/Royale Contravene setup on Kabr. Dual element and matches my cosmetic setup perfectly. Come to think of it, I might be on the spectrum

[vast arch]

well I might be able to help with that

[errant narwhal]

But thats what I did, I joined a team at Crota and we did a run back after

[fallow mirage]

Makes sense. I just picked one up now and rolled it a bit. Got some pretty decent stats on it

[true mauve]

I chose prismatic spectrum kabr arc lassi void arby solar

[errant narwhal]

Get the hardest encounters out the way then bridge and abyss are a cakewalk

[unborn turtle]

Incredibly, still yet to get RC.

[errant narwhal]

Arbalest is also really good on him, especially in the raid

Scout Sniper users are probably the more intended target for Symmetry

[soft bobcat]

Should help your survivability quite some. She also got buffed in many other ways since that Artifact came out. Hopefully you'll be another enjoyer again 💪

[true mauve]

Fr we get 3 more and run him

[karmic chasm]

I can’t be bothered to build it tho- still have to use cores for the last cat of TLW AND maybe build Trinity for fun on Rossi

[errant narwhal]

At least for the raid you don’t have to

[vast arch]

Who else needs abyss and bridge?

[fallow mirage]

Tbh, survivability was never an issue on her. It’s mostly just dmg

[karmic chasm]

You’re right haha. Forgot again.

[slow sigil]

Just noticed we got the Longest crota fight in the rankings so far with 25 minutes 😂😂

[true mauve]

#lfg-great-hunt 😜 i had to

[fallow mirage]

3 phase?

[errant narwhal]

It was pretty nice not needing to build stuff to test weapons

[true mauve]

We makin team right now I think

[vast arch]

meh I'm actually talking directly to some specific people already in this chat

[soft bobcat]

Yeah her Damage got buffed too. She gets Retribution stacks filled up whenever you slam above 60% rage

[slow sigil]

No Crota The last one 😂 4th phase on challenge

[errant narwhal]

Thats crota

[fallow mirage]

No I mean, how many dmg phases did it take u guys to kill him?

[karmic chasm]

I just don’t have two hours. I’m sorry man. Maybe later in the week so I can at least get the 3rd emblem (Crota clear one)

[true mauve]

Yeah I know, the ones who alrdy cleared should step up right? Its Witchking everyone loves bro

[karmic chasm]

I could try symmetry in abyss 🤔

[errant narwhal]

If I had time to get on my pc today I would

[slow sigil]

3 + final stand, but we needed to get the sword 2 times in the 3rd phase because the sword wielder died 😂

[fallow mirage]

Didn’t she always do that? I coulda sworn that was a thing after u upgraded one of her relic abilities

[errant narwhal]

You should to see how you like it

[slow sigil]

But hey surviving 25 minutes in challenge against Crota is also a achievement

[true mauve]

I think we trying to run you just 1 and 2 so you can find better teams

[soft bobcat]

Maybe lol idk hard to keep track of all the changes

[grave river]

My cpu fan went out so I had to do the entire crota raid on contest on my phone 😭

[vast arch]

It's actually easier to 1 phase than it is to stay alive for 25 minutes lmao

[fallow mirage]

How’d u guys get sword twice? He’s supposed to wipe you if you die in the portal and he starts the duel if ur outside of the portal

[errant narwhal]

How do you have enough heavy to one phase? that was our issue

[slow sigil]

He died at the boss after the Clash he got killed by an Ogre

[grave river]

Same. We would get to final stand and have only primary

[slow sigil]

See we just made it more hard mode 😂👍

[grave river]

We ended up just doing a super easy 2 phase

[fallow mirage]

Oh I see. Well you gotta do 2 swords on challenge mode anyways cuz one sword only does like 70% of his shield, at least from my experience

[vast arch]

Helhest and make your damage count. Out of all of our attempts last night I think we only got close to 1 phase once

[errant narwhal]

Yeah I dont think theres a way to one sword it

[slow sigil]

Yea in that way we had 3 swords at 3rd DMG phase 😅

[errant narwhal]

Man if we had T6 HH itd be a cakewalk

[karmic chasm]

Bro I almost died fighting inside the portal on Normal because I couldn’t proc any sort of healing artifacts and the knights had aimbot 💀

[soft bobcat]

The answer is always HELHEST
https://tenor.com/view/jack-nicholson-jack-nicholson-yes-yes-nod-head-nod-gif-17444176260167585294

[fallow mirage]

He moves around too much ngl. Tho tbf, we didn’t have an Umeko for the debuff on our run. We always got him down to like 30% during the first phase

[errant narwhal]

Unlimited heavy ammo essentially

[vast arch]

Umeko is necessary I think

[true mauve]

What slot 3 and 4 you guys use for HH? These seem cracked on her tbh...

[karmic chasm]

Alright this is embarrassing… what is the correct ability loop on Helhest? I usually spam 3 boost drones, salvo, and then shoot until another drone is ready… idk what I’m doing but it works

[errant narwhal]

Yeah debuffing crota, the sword and shinkas was irreplaceable

[soft bobcat]

Which tier / talent level?

[slow sigil]

I can tell you our way, get a Krabr (the new 5star) and let him pull aggro Everytime, then lead him to the crystal room, he can't enter it. And then just place barricades 😅 so he wont roam around and your mates can focus on anything else

[karmic chasm]

T1

[vast arch]

Axiom in 3 and Hawkeye or Bellicose in 4

[slow sigil]

We made it a Bit more to an Actual RPG fight 😂

[true mauve]

Pretty close

[karmic chasm]

I can’t run the last one because I move like I’m King Julian. That’s why you always see bellicose on my builds

[true mauve]

Kabr is first stationary dude I find im ok with. Drop barrier dont move lol

[oak coyote]

hi 👋🏻
