It was not my network that was the problem. My PS4 has a fine connection at home and I am only connecting directly to it. It was YzuNup's connection to the server that had the problem. I was not the host either.

Buying the cloaks from the speaker of course. I think they look dope and I haven't bought a single one yet.
...true. I feel you bro.
Yes, I've been hyping it since I got it and still love it. It's essentially a mainstay in my special slot. Barely use fusion rifles anymore.
any good perks? cuz if i were to use a pulse rifle,, it would be Bad Juju for the super cooldown perk.

You actually lose heavy ammo when you respawn, not at death. So for now, you have to switch gear pieces really quick to not lose anything. But I agree its dumb, especially with how long it's been a known issue.
Sometimes I would forget that I swapped out the gear and would run around at the Crota fight as a 31 :/ lol
2 people bought a No Land Beyond and 1,143,320 people sharded them.
Happened to us often. Usually would figure it out before we left the spawn room though.

Not only that, but I had a normal clear under my belt too!

Don't know how you do it. Atheon's hitbox is so fucked up it's near impossible to get multiple crits sometimes even when he's standing still. You have to like hit the bottom of his crit spot. Something I'm not nearly good enough with a sniper to pull off. I'm more of a Sepiks Prime kind of guy. Give me a massive crit spot and stay perfectly still and I'll use BH all day.

I used almost 100 heavy synths in 2 days for 1 completion. Sorry to all but I'm glad he's not selling them. There should be no way we should be that reliant on them. There really needs to be other methods of obtaining heavy ammo. They should be used in times of real dire need like in the middle of the fight. Not popping them like candy every try multiple times.
"bring GHorns and lots of extra heavy ammo packs" is wrong.

CE hard mode is hardly doable with a 32.

Titans are the real deal. Make one and you'll be prepared since raid helms are typically dropped at the raid boss (1 chance versus multiple drops of the other 3 pieces through a single raid) so chances are you'll be capped with an exotic helm and the other 3 raid prices. Titans are super fun and OP in PvP.
Which helms did you get and did you keep them?

That's not exactly shocking is it. The loot system was still properly fucked back in the day and even though I spend all my time in playing Destiny the first two weeks I wasn't ready till the end of second week. And even that was just barely. It was week 3 when I beat Atheon.
If there were 4 character slots, I surely would.
Currently, have 32 Warlock, 32 Hunter and 20 Warlock (ALT).
I got the Skullfort, Glasshouse and Saint-14. I kept them.

It's not difficult to get multiple crits on Atheon from the middle platform with a BH, but your team should not shoot rockets or throw grenades at him or he will move like a mad man.

If it's low enough, they may just as a joke. Even Bungie can have a sense of humor about their failures sometimes.
not holding my breath, though.
I got NLB from this week's Nightfall. Sharded it immediately for my Obsidian Mind helm.
It has the same stats basically but better perks than VoC.
Can you list the strat you guys used?

Yep, I love the black hammer. Just sucks that they had to remove the extra damage perk because would be very helpful for the raid... VERY helpful.
Also the word of crota suffers from the same bug, so don't upgrade the damage perk on it because you will lose the ammo refill thingy.

We will forever go down in history as the guardians who got Crota HM first try. It was actually my first try ever at Crota HM lol. Hadn't played Destiny since tuesday really haha.
I'm uploading a vid as we speak. It cut out the first sword run because I was an idiot and saved the clip too late, but you should get the jist of it.
bah, jamming is so rare that i don't even notice. i just reload if that happens anyway. VoC auto-fire is the best.

Damn all 3. You're good to go.
Yea if I was you, assuming you'll still continue to play and like playing, I'd recommend making a Titan instead of Warlock #2. I understood it before during VoG with its crappy drop system, but now I think it no longer makes sense. Playing 3 distinct classes is a lot of fun. But just my suggestion.

I'm still in shock I think, thanks to you and everyone else for such a smooth run. I've uploaded my perspective to YouTube, waiting for the video to finish processing.
Yep. VoG had much rarer drops, so I guess I understand the want for a class alt. not so much in CE.

Yep
It's the same as cosmo's strategy with a few changes.
1. Bubble with blessing at the crystal
2. Clear trash, make sure everyone is using supers to make a nice reserve of orbs
3. Go to the middle ledge, but do not go out until everyone is ready, heal, heavy synth. Etc. swordbearer does not come out until someone exits the area.
4. 5 people on the swordbearer, sword carrier should jump down and use rockets if required
5. One player on the knights in the left tower, do not shoot them immediately, wait for them to take their positions and then fire, firing early will stagger and fuck up path finding and then you may not see them behind there
6. DPS on Crota, Ghorns all the way, swordbearer does their thing going up the left side rock, we aimed for 3 swords, so you have to be careful you don't do too well (come on Bungie!) in case you leave Crota with too little health and hit the enrage
7. Regroup inside the left area and wait for Crota to move to center, heal up, pop heavy ammo, etc start doing #4-6 just before he goes center, don't wait
8. ogres, rush down to the right tower inside. Have the team jump up above the doors, suppress ogre with a flashbang grenade once he comes out the door. DPS ogre, then be safe and kill the second ogre from that room, a blessing of light bubble is very useful here too
9. Go back to the ledge when safe, ensure Crota is not there, wait if needed
10. If you took too long to kill the ogres then go to the crystal room wait for crota to go to the right then middle again
10. Rinse repeat for the last kneel
We have to be reliant on them because the heavy ammo bug still exists. Until that's fixed then honestly they should have Xur selling heavy ammo packs every week, but nope Bungie decided it would be better to make it RNG when he sells them. It's dumb.
To add to it, most people only had a single character back then. Now quite a few people have at least 2, some even 3. The wording they use is also pretty deceptive. 557, 354 raids have been launched, I know Homeboyd launched it at least 4+ times himself. They say Guardians, not unique users.
Good luck beating Crota without heavy ammo packs!

We put one guy on right side boomer duty while Dhruv DPSed Crota from that side. You absolutely have to get 6 hits on Crota with each sword.
After the second sword phase (12 hits), go inside the right or left ogre tower and wait for it to spawn. Use the flashbang grenade and just rocket him to death. Snipe the other ogre from that room.
Crota will enrage after 15 hits, so everyone simply has to take his shield down while the swordbearer does the rest. It's pretty easy actually when you think about it.
Also for boomers just stun them, there's no need to kill them or a wizard will spawn making things difficult.
Where?
Also, can I be added to the Become Legend? I posted this a few weeks ago and I guess it never got added.

Stating the obvious but I've found that headshotting boomers (but not necessarily killing them--definitely not killing both) with sniper rifles so they stagger is a good way to keep them at bay when protecting the swordsmith or moving around the map. This is also helpful at the very beginning to prevent the sword knights from rushing into the crystal room.

Yea that bug makes it worse.
Yea I really don't plan to beat him anymore soon, after my 2 more characters get him down. 1 has ruin wings so I'll be swapping to that in the beginning crystal room. That method helped Kadey get lots of heavy.
