My clan 'Death Squad' just beat Crota with two 31's and four 30's. Video here.
[b][quote]We're working on a new video showing an in depth guide from all player roles needed to beat Crota. Subscribe to the YouTube channel to be notified once it's uploaded.[/quote][/b]
[u][b] Guide:[/b][/u]
The sword holder was a level 31 bladedancer hunter with the [b]stalker[/b], [b]shadowjack[/b] and [b]higher jump[/b] perks. This is the only requirement apart from the rest of the team being level 30+.
Once we kill the first mobs near the crystal the bladedancer went down to grab the [b]chalice of light[/b] whilst one went infront of the main window you start behind with an icebreaker to take out the knights that spawn at the top of the two towers on either side of Crota. The other four went down to the middle as you can see in my POV in the video.
Once the [b]sword bearer[/b] spawned the four at the bottom took him out and the bladedancer took the sword. The bladedancer then went to the left side of Crota were there is a rock you can jump on to reach Crota. In the corner of the rock is a crack he crouched in to get invisibility. Once invisible the bladedancer jumped up to Crota and instructed us to take his shields down. Two gjallahorn rounds and a few bullets takes this down easily.
Once down the bladedancer is already right next to him and he used the strong attack ([b]R2[/b] / [b]RT[/b]) [b][u]FOUR TIMES (OR 3 AND A SUPER)[/u][/b]. He then immediately jumped back to the bottom middle to regroup with the four others.
When Crota runs to either side, all players excluding the knight killer regroups at bottom mid. The knight killer goes to the oppsite side and hides behind the doors so he can still pick off knights.The sword bearer will then spawn, so wait for Crota to run back to middle. Then have the knight killer return to his position and repeat previous steps to damage Crota.
As you can see in the video I occasionaly jumped up to see the door beneath Crota as this is where the sword bearer spawns. If it doesn't open then [b]two ogres[/b] will come. If this happens everyone go to bottom middle and use snipers to kill the ogres. Once done have knight killer return to his position. Eventually another sword bearer will come.
[b]Crucial tip:[/b]
If possible have the four use their super on the stairs outside the bottom mid on thrall to generate orbs. This will allow the bladedancer to get his super whilst holding the sword which causes much more damage on Crota.

Edited by AggTheGREAT: 12/11/2014 5:09:19 AMSweet guide! I tried doing it but two main things became a problem: where exactly does the "knight killer" stand? In the door way? Second, Crota keeps running to the right which becomes a real problem as he can then hand blast us and the hunter then wastes the invisible time and gets blasted. Any suggestions to keep Crota centered? Other than that, really awesome guide, will be using it to completion!
-
where is the location of the knigh killer ? seem like he spent most of his time back to the mid group..
-
And everyone said hunters were useless in raids
-
