Yes, Templar on hard only.

agree

and it all ties back to the other bullet points provided

- not enough people using heavy damage weapons (ex. IB)
- burning though heavy ammo at a great pace and having it deplete upon death/wipe
- people maybe trying to conserve ammo because they didn't have a weapon such as the IB and we can't get ammo drops from where we were situated ... there were times I didn't see/hear nearly enough firing going on and sometimes short lulls with nothing ... I could be wrong but I don't remember a single time where 5 rockets were flying toward the Templar at the same time upon the countdown from 3 down to 1 ... the most important part of this battle is probably getting off those rockets right before his shield goes down and detainment bubbles go up
- the containment shields were also just messing up the amount of time we could hit the Templar and if I am using part of only a 6 clip IB to get out of a containment bubble there is no way I am going to regen enough of that ammo in time to do any serious damage to the Templar (I'm not chess )

we also need people using their supers more often if possible (spec for high intellect up top if you can without lowering your level)
seemed like we didn't get a ton of WOL useage ... I even tried to switch to Voidwalker with lance to see if I could hit the Templar since Sunsinger/revive was really not necessary from where we were
you can also put damage on the Templar while shooting out of your detainment bubble ... make sure you are aiming on the Templar while shooting out of it

I also feel like the Black Hammer does some really good work on him, particularly if his teleport can be blocked a couple times. On that run where Scott blocked his teleport several times, I was using Black Hammer on his critical spot and must have landed 15-16 shots at near 3000 a hit without using any ammo.

Re: *** Official DVDTalk PS4 Destiny Clan - Daggers Of Destiny ***

It almost sounds like many of the things that we have talked about the past 2, 3 times when fighting the Templar on hard were prevalent for you guys last night. You didn't mention firing the rockets just prior to the containment fields, too, Scott, which helped me immensely the last fight. I also feel like people bunch up too much, and, as such, it causes people to blow themselves up, because they hit a teammate who crosses in front of them (I have been burned by this several times).

At any rate, as I had stated eh we ran Crota on Wednesday, I want in on Vault runs tonight, feel free to invite, guys!

And congratulations to all the newest Icebreaker Daggers!

Anyone know show much damage they were getting with icebreaker . 331 P&T was hitting for 2375 every shot. I meant to see if a 300 Praedeth's Revenge would dish out more damage

yeah, when people jockey for best position downstairs this is prone to happen
wasn't the case last night as we were up in the snipping area while Scott was the only one on the ground (though we did run it both ways)

not sure ... don't think it was that much damage, but I might use a different snipe for the Templar himself when we do it again and keep the IB on board for ammo regen ... the recoil/kick on the IB can be a detriment
it's just really hard to switch between weapons sometimes as well as load up heavy with multiple things going on at once (oracles, containment shields, templar splash damage, cooldowns)

But it looks like ntlbrnkiller and Sooner will be joining the Ice Breaker Club...congrats to by the way. Now if we can take care of Scott & the rest of the "No I Don't Have A Gjallarhorn" Club we'd all be a bunch of Happy Daggers.

I'm up for whatever though I'd like to do another Crota Run and work on the timing, different combinations and even work on placement of the Titan bubble.
I saw you were running nightfalls/weeklies with a full crew and nobody else was online yet, so I just logged off.

All I need for this week is 2 Deathsinger runs, but there's really no urgency. I'd just like to get it done before Tuesday morning. I'll even do a full Crota run if people want to practice that... or VoG. I'm not working til Sunday so I'll try to stay up tonight and hang with the late-nighters if there's room on any fireteams.

Re: *** Official DVDTalk PS4 Destiny Clan - Daggers Of Destiny ***

Again...I'm up for anything tonight though I much prefer a Crota since I've got two characters that hasn't done it yet. I'm done with Nightfall & Weekly runs this week. it's either tonight or Sunday night as I've got a special little guy coming over and most likely end up with Knack, Lego Batman or Earth Defense Force though he does like playing a easy Warframe level

Had plenty of time to play today since I stayed home from work. I kind of had no choice since the pressure relief valve went on my hot water heater overnight and completely ruined the closet pantry on the floor below.

I'm up for anything tonight as well.

If anyone still needs to run a nightfall Id be up for running one with my 30 Warlock. My newly acquired Icebreaker should make it a piece of cake.

Patience & Time works better this week...but you can use the Ice Breaker to generate ammo for that or any other arc sniper you have.

That's my plan. Glad I picked one up a few weeks back when Xur was selling it.

There will be no practice or goofing off during the Vault run, sir!

One of my biggest regrets was not picking up two more. Love that rifle and against Hive Majors & Ultras a major plus. Have it and a Ice Breaker in your secondary; you are good to go.

oh I hope to have it leveled up before then

by the way I think it is only fair that the pecking order for HM VoG is maintained for those who gave their life (over and over again) last night together and I know Gooter said he won't be on till around 10:30 CT

I'd be happy to run it earlier with another group on normal or with a different guardian than I was using last night but wouldn't finish in time to continue our run from last night if we would run hard so might have to sit out until we get our group together from last night

My mentions today of wanting to run the Vault were just follow up to the comments from Wednesday. If there is already a group, obviously, I understand! My Gjallahorn can be used elsewhere, too!

Nawwwwww maybe more than seasons 1 and 2. "Damn it" is more Sooner's catch phrase.

I think I said "oh crap" the most, as in "3...2...oh crap." You may have missed that over shooting your rockets off at 2 and watching them hit the shield I couldn't take down.

I should be on tonight as well. Already logged on and made my purchases from Xur . Other than that, I haven't done anything this week, so I'm up for anything.
