So for those of us who might have to choose because they didn't collect enough strange coins throughout the week...which should they choose for their level 29 warlock :mjcry:
did you run the weekly? I can do it one more time this week if you need help. even the nightfall, sometimes you get coins as a reward
You have to put a guide out on how to beat it. That's the only part I still have not best legit.
I was 32 so I was Chalice and Sword carrier.
- Whoever the sword carrier is should have the chalice when fighting Crota. Team should tell sword carrier when they are done with it to take it back
- We stayed in the left side entrance for the first two swords prior to the ogres showing up
- One guy with a fully leveled Icebreaker focused on the knights. Since one headshot takes them down, you don't really need more than one person on them especially since if you don't get them in one shot, they put shields up and be a nuisance for longer
- Five guys take out Swordbearer, when he drops, sword carrier grabs it and jumps to the rocks on the left side and waits
- The rest of the team fires only primary weapons at Crota to get him down. Teammates tell sword carrier when he's 50% and 10%
- Sword carrier jumps on the platform at 10% and by the time you reach him, he should be down. You can get 3 RT/R2 smashes in if timed perfect and before his yellow shield comes up. If not, just hit him twice and back away.
- Sword carrier goes back to the rocks on the left.
- When Crota's yellow shield goes away, the rest of the team shoots heavy and secondary weapons at Crota to get him down quick a 2nd time before the sword runs out
- Can't really wait for 10% call depending on what heavies are being used so teammates have to say when to go, and the sword carrier should be on the platform just out of range from Crota
- Crota takes a knee and you can get 3 more RT/R2
- Before the ogres come, everybody went down to the original spawn point at the bottom (where you are before the deathsinger part) and waits for the ogres.
- Weapons of Light from a Titan shield could help to take them out quicker, and provide cover from them
- When they drop, return to the left side entrance and clear the thralls out that are now in there
- Repeat the process with 5 on the Swordbearer, 1 on the knights, sword carrier takes chalice and sword.

If done right, he can be beat with 3 or 4 swords
that's exactly what we did. Some other points - if he moves to the right, the strategy can still work so it doesn't hurt to try, if he moves left towards the left entrance where you all are, back the hell up cuz he will come into the room and hulk smash everybody

I hit level 4 and copped my Gauntlets then got off.

Grinded the shyt out of IB this week with this Titan, now he'll be ready for everything once I level up this gear.

I had to mute that annoying ass cac for a few matches in that 2nd Party we hopped in. Dude was great at complaining all damn match with that fragile ass voice of his

planned on doing Iron Banner with my hunter and got discouraged quick :mjlol: don't play regular crucible with him enough

might do it with my titan instead

buddy of mine said to try the abyss rock jump super activation trick yesterday, and it worked first try. you also get to see @TripleAgent double jumping too early and failing miserably :lolbron:

beat Crota legit :blessed:

only part I've yet to do proper is the bridge.
I just beat it legit last night too. Pretty easy actually, i'd say with all the backing out and starting over we should have been doing it legit from the start since its quicker.

Finally lvl 32 :blessed: got one more character to do it with this week if anybody is down. I'm also available for Iron Banner.

Haven't done either one but the grinding I'll have to do to reach 30 strange coins afterward. Send me amsg when you're on. I'm free all day

Got to 2 and a half in the Iron Banner rank after a few hours. Surprisingly did every bounty for the day too :leon:

Either Sunday or Monday I'll be on it heavy to get the gloves. Don't really care about the weapons. Got enough shyt to level up as is, and the only weapons I really want are VoG ones

xur had some good shyt this week....i copped 2 more icebreakers so each character can have one....i'm one hawkmoon and ghorn away from each character having one of those as well....

didnt touch the ib all week...wasnt in the mood

finally got a 'pit of the husk' for all 3 characters...i'll grind those up since the hard raid drops next week....speaking of which, i want those weapons outta there, especially that scout rifle and that pulse rifle...

@Tic Tac T O i finally got around to using the bad juju and om combo, it's ok...as much as i like the bad juju, there are other guns that kill faster, which work better with the om to me

to the cat whose psn is karrdie81: VOG was on that bullshyt...bungie really needs to concentrate more on the glitching that goes on rather than cheesing....the glitches make taht shyt so frustrating and sometimes unplayable

I've read the super gain abilities on both Bad Juju and OM don't stack, but I'm also reading they do :yeshrug:

same for the combo I have on my hunter. Don't Touch Me and the Vanguard helmet both have super gain but cats saying it doesn't stack but it looks like it to me. AND I hear perks only stack when its from a subclass ability, weapon ability, or armor ability but not when its from 2 armor. if thats the case, then BJ and OM should stack :manny:

I don't know what to tell you man. didn't do any thorough tests and don't plan on it
:yeshrug::manny:
