This is the fastest way to beat Crota, and you can kill Crota before the first 2 ogres come. Without me typing a wall of text, I have two videos which will show the best and fastest way to beat Crota. Here is the sword carrier POV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkR7SNUBRaY Here is another POV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhgaBO4bocI The key notes to this fight is to attack Crota aggressively. Make sure your team is communicating about Crota's shield. When your team shoots two rockets, you should start thinking about jumping up to attack him. If you time it right, you should be able to R2 smash him 4-5 times each time. Timing and communication is key in this raid. Best of luck!
