Don't know if you all are still stuck on Crota or not, some useful information that was shared with me is that it may be possible you will not have to deal with a single Ogre fighting him if no one dies. I haven't confirmed it myself and won't be playing most of this week so someone else will have to test this. Also, a new strategy occurred to me that can be tested if it already hasn't been done. When you are free from the shielded room have everyone go back to entrance of the boss room to avoid having to worry about the blasts of the Knights and you can draw the sword guy towards you down their and take him out and then have everyone dps Crota. Also when I was playing it yesterday the sword seemed to stick around long enough to where I think it may be possible to get his shield down twice and hit him 3 more times before it goes away. Anyway those are my current thoughts on Crota. Feel free to comment and let me know if any of this works or has been found to not work out very well. No feelings will be hurt.

Still looking to get past the swarm, Easy chest is hard to miss if your not looking. Want to get into this and try to contribute before it is figured out.

Ok so the raid is hard as -blam!-. Lvl 30 normal mode but has lvl 31 ads :(
