Ran the Vosik Challenge on my Hunter a little while ago. We had to stop at Aksis, but I got spliced boots and a machine gun at Vosik and spliced gauntlets later on so I'm happy. Still no chest though.

TheKing

Did a full raid at reset for the first time in a long time.

I needed either the normal or hard Warlock bond to get a shader. I ended up getting both. So I now have both shaders. Now I just need to complete the Aksis challenge and get the ship.

If anyone wants to try and do the raid tonight I will be on later, after the football game, around 11 central time

cruzness

Anyone up for a raid run tonight? Or anytime the rest of the week?

TheKing

I'm gonna try and do two of them today. Currently in one early, but should be free to do my last of the week during normal Dagger time.

musick

I'd like to say yes but I wouldn't hold out hope based on recent attempts to party up

Obey The D

Problem for me is it's easier to run during the weekend, and this weekend obviously didn't work for people. These 11pm ET start times on a weekday turn into an almost midnight start time once people gear up and get ready. If we could finish up by 1am during the week I'd be up for it.

Until then I'll just run a few LFG's early during the week and keep at least 1 run free if we get enough.

Obey The D

Depends...do you ever plan on getting over 390?

All kidding aside my LF run went very smoothly last week because everyone was 399/400 except for one who was right around 390.

cruzness

Dude I just wasn't feeling it. I have alot more fun partying up with you guys than grinding on my own and I have had alot of real life events that kept me busy.

Good news is my characters are @ 390 Warlock /388 Titan /385 Hunter.

I ran a normal raid the other night to re-familiarize myself and to see if I could get the OP bounty on a another character. Also was helping out a guy who was raiding with me while everybody was on hiatus. (I even threw out some tips from when the Daggers were raiding to help out) Everything was fine until lag reared it's ugly head up at the end of the raid. Did not finish it. I still wanna take a swipe at a couple of more normal runs to get the bounty going on my Hunter and Warlock

cruzness

I agree we sometimes wait till too late to get going on raiding.

I'm in for any Raids during the Thanksgiving weekend as a fill-in if needed...

TheKing

So after the Dagger run tonight I went on LFG *shudders* to try and complete the raid. Ended up in a group doing Vosik challenge. As usual, after a few wipes someone drops out. Turns out, that was the best thing that could have happened.

The guy that dropped was doing the countdown, and was horrible at it. He blamed the rest of us for not getting the bombs in properly, but wasn't giving us the time to actually get the bombs. I took over and we had no issues after that. It took a little while but we got challenge done. Then we stalled at Siege Engine, finally got it done, but we ran out of time before reset to do anything else.

I did end up with the Aksis Part 1 checkpoint, passed it over the reset if anyone wants to start there instead of fresh.

K&AJones

Well...thanks for the invite and getting in last night. I actually felt a bit more comfortable in my "2nd Raid" though I messed up again in a few spots....and I'm sure I'll mess up later on in the remaining parts. I did land Boots & Gloves along with a Sidearm (Void) all at 400 which helps.

I can change out that Void Machine Gun but to me it helps in a few situations versus a Sword...I can bring a Rocket Launcher like the one I got from the Raid. I've got several of those Machine Guns from IB that are 398-400 to infuse.

cruzness

Best thing to do is to infuse them into a variety of weapons so you bring a varied arsenal to the raid.

chase3001

Sorry I missed the raid last night. How far did you guys make it?

musick

Past the Zamboni then stopped

TheKing

Finished my first raid of the week. Got with a good group on the100 and we managed to knock out challenge mode successfully. Once you get in the groove, it's not that bad. Just requires a lot of concentration.

Along the way my Titan got the boots, gloves and class item he needed. All my main account characters have full spliced raid armor sets. My Hunter now has a full set of armor with ornaments activated.

chase3001

Any interest in running the raid again this week? I know you all have the false Thanksgiving today, but I'm available tonight.

Obey The D

I should be available any night through the rest of the week.

musick

I can be on tonight

K&AJones

Good chance I can...I sent Scott a message early last night in case there was going to be one I should be available....I might be in another game but let me know.

TheKing

Currently I'm in a raid scheduled for Dagger time, but I can pull out of it.

Got my second Aksis challenge completion this morning after getting screwed out of it a couple hours before. We were on the final round of Aksis, he's very low on health...so low in fact that he teleported to middle front, then immediately to his platform for the final kill. Because of this, we couldn't supercharge or slam him that time. Very annoying to be screwed over like that. Reminded me of when we did the Golgoroth challenge with 5 people and the game wouldn't count it.

Obey The D

Daggers pulled out a hard mode win. Didn't think it looked good for quite a while, but we did it. I'll be up for running it again this weekend. Hunter.

TheKing

Well I just finished the challenge mode for that last raid, so my main account is done for the week raid wise. So I can bring anybody on my other account. Depends on what we need.
