Crota Hard Just got Harder

has anyone come up with a new strategy now that the new patch is out and furthermore has anyone had any major issues with the raid once the update came out? I know for my team we had to wait for crota's overshield to come down but once it was down crota would chase the swordbearer and then attack him as before sometimes even falling off the stage. I know you have to wait for crotas immunity a.k.a. His orange shield to go down before you fire but after the patch it seems extended and was told it now takes 8 seconds instead of the regular three for his shield to disappear. Anyone who has played crota normal or hard this week after the patch 1.1.2 noticed any difference? *edit: this post is full of trolls with no real feedback on any differences noticed from the update. please no posts about your platform never having issues on crotas immunity and no your platform is not better than the other platforms out there. this issue has been brought up by xbox one and ps4 users please confirm edit: trolls will keep trolling even though this patch has only been out for a week. I guess I won't get any real feedback edit: Some issues that you guys have seen while running the raid have been: -Crotas Kneeling animation has been shortened -crota takes longer to kneel -crotas shield is harder to bring down -crotas shield recovers more quickly -crota ignores swordbearer's invisibility and whacks him regardless -shield glitches out and no damage is done to crota -shield goes down then immediately regenrates after -crota comes off stage and glitches into ogre room -crota chases guardians into crystal room -delay in swinging the sword as crota goes down which makes it nearly impossible for 4 hits now -knights go into crystal room without a titans bubble being activated -sword can't be picked up once swordbearer is killed. -swordbearer now more glitchy than before -crystal from crystal room disappears Thank You For All that provided real feedback and not just negative comments

  • I did a few goes 2 manning crota on normal. On more than 1 occassion 2 Gjallahorn rockets did not bring his shield down. No interference, rockets hit 1 after the other as normal. Damage registered and his shield did not go down.

  • I feel like they made the whole raid more aggressive than it was before. Me and a buddy used to be able to duo up to crota even on hard but after the last update it's gotten so ridiculous that it's not fun anymore :-/ I am well aware raids are supposed to be completed by six (bungies intent) but no one is on anymore so it's much more difficult to raid now. I feel like a lot of my friends list got off and never came back after the HOW announcement. Yes I've beaten the raid plenty of times, yes I'm only missing two things from that damned raid and now I'll never get them lol

    • You have to start hitting him the second he starts attempting to kneel.

    • Do you f*cking grammar or punctuation, bro? For f*cks sake...you're online and using the written word as a medium for communication. Can you not properly structure even a three paragraph statement to make your point?!

      • I have noticed a few things. Crota now gets up faster. But only swings when fully standing up. I can only get 6 hits in every sword now. Although i've seen a few get 4 or even 5 hits everydown (8/10 hits) Shield sometimes said immune at impact of a gally....the dmg is still done(shield still drops). Crota killed a teammate with his knee instead of a swordswing once xD (we all wiped while laughing) Sorry for my bad grammar i'm dutch

        • His shield regens a lot quicker so timing on the rockets needs to be bob-on. He has lashed out at invisible sword runner. Also ogres took time on HM to come out. Had to wait around 2 minutes in which time crota had crotated left, centre and right and was literally at the top of the stairs when we headed back to the crystal room. Still do-able though.

        • I'm on crappy Internet, and I don't see more than one or two of these problems. These have nothing to do with the game's coding.

        • It takes slightly more than 2 gally shots me and my friend were two manning crota and it took 2 gallys plus 3 or 4 fatebringer shots.

        • It has become even easier to me, now that the sword doesn't disappear randomly , and crota doesn't slash you before completely unkneeling, I don't spend hours now because of those problems.

          • I've had the problem several times where the sword bearer goes invisible, and 2 seconds later, Crota melees him. For no reason. While invisible...

          • Ran sword on hard mode first try, three swords with zero issues. Did have issues with shield in normal but I think my team just didn't shoot enough rockets lol

            • I did normal flawlessly the other day, haven't run it on hard but we got through with the usual BS (another person was running sword). He seems about as unpredictable/glitchy/laggy as always.

            • I don't see the difference because I can still get 4 and 1/2 hits once in a while

            • Couple days ago it seemed like Crota was super fast and withstand more rockets then could hit him with. But last 2 days on 2 different raid teams we seem to kill him in a decent amount of time. Also today our Sword Bearer went invisble after hitting Crota waiting for our 3sec countdown to kneel him again.

              For me... We shoot, he goes down, once he stands i count to 4 in my head then shoot. He loses invulnerability as the rockets about halfway there. This is shooting from the ledge with the glass, using a gally(speed wise) if im closer or using a rocket with faster velocity i wait a little longer The update didnt seem to change anything i did this before and after still works

            • Everything is still the same just this time the ppl who are firing the rockets need to wait till crota is fully up and charged up

            • I play on 360 and really i havent had any issues. Worst thing thats haooened is on hard once hes enraged i can only get 3 hits in it seems like his shield goes up faster. But its probably an error on my account. It only happened twice. And i did successfully kill him after 4-5 tries.
