"Cheesing" The Oracles? Dishonorable
In in a random hard raid group today that was actually pretty good despite a few annoying wait times.
We get to the oracles, somebody suggests we wipe and snipe the oracles. 2 players in our party stated that they wouldn't even consider "cheesing" the oracles. I argued that after playing the content for the 20th time, I'd prefer to do whatever takes the least amount of time.
Cliff: Do you "cheese" the oracles or do you find this method dishonorable?
After 4 wipes at rounds 4-6, we "cheesed" the oracles ultimately to save time......
Edit1: I have and can beat the oracles regularly, I just prefer to snipe them on hard mode. Especially with a random team, one wipe and you've wasted time. Give me some new content and I'll run through it the "normal" way.
Edit 2: love the responses, I guess I am not the only one with common sense and a life outside of Destiny. Again, I created this post because the 2 players were basically offended that sniping the oracles was recommended. I wanted to see how the community felt in general. I see that my preference fits with majority

33 RepliesI like how the "valid tactic" of cheesing starts with "Let's all kill ourselves." Unless everyone is doing confluxes from the upper platform, don't tell me it's a "valid tactic." From a developer's standpoint the raid is expected to be done flawlessly, we just happen to exploit our ability to die and revive continuously. I sincerely hope a countdown for kill volume or some spawning threat on the upper platform eliminates this cheap and boring "tactic." I'm already tired of getting randoms on every part that ask - Are we hiding from legions?? No. - Are we cheesing oracles?? No. - Are we pushing Templar off?? No. - But what about the extra chest with our pointless couple ascendants?? Block his teleports if you want it so bad. - Are we doing gatekeepers one at a time?? No. - Are we pushing Atheon off?? No. I'm already running into 30s that have no idea how to do parts of the raid because of this nonsense. It's pathetic.
