Before I get into a raid I always make some coffee and put it into a traveler mug and get some snacks like a protein bar and a banana. Oh and make sure I take a piss before we start.. don't want to be that guy holding everyone up. How do you prepare?
Edit: damn guys, you got this thread trending. Interesting to see how everyone prepares from getting drinks and food to telling their significant other to GTFO.
Side note: I posted this last night before a raid. Took three of my friends through for their first time ever and actually finished in about 1.5 hrs.

This would be all great if we can get a "hold" option between wipes. When an Atheon fight takes over an hour (damn health regenerating Praetorians) it would be great to be able to either have the fireteam leader start the reset or have a "ready" status with a majority start.

Pre-raid shit (I believe if you feel like you can float like an angel irl, your guardian channels that and become a graceful butterfly of death) Vocal chord excersize (in case of drop that's been evading you for the past month) Light stretching (related to 1 and 2) Water bottle (to keep hydrated) MLG shitbucket (in case of emergency Hobgoblin alert. I didn't get to Colonel 100 to not use my shitbucket) Various religious texts (I'm not religious, but I'll pray like hell to some god or another right before a drop just in case) Mountain Dew/Doritos are optional. Used only for when you're EXTREME GAMING.

Smoke the fattest bowl possible, make sure the kids are asleep. Point VOC at Vex face.

I put on my homemade suit of warlock armour. The gauntlets make it hard to use the dual shock controller and I can't see shit out of my tinfoil 'facade of the hezen lords' but it's the ONLY way to play. Then I load Destiny LFG because I have no friends.
-
I make sure my armor is cleaned and oiled, load mags, wipe out the inside of my helmet visor and make sure all guns are cleaned and ready to go......
-
Make sure I have a spliff, brew and munch ready, then usually stick some tunes on and wait

No lie I was playing with a group the other day and we get to oracles and this guy says "I'm going to go change clothes be back in 5". We are all like wtf the oracles started and his response was " I do this every time". I booted him
