You're getting the boot.
Every time I do the raid there's some turd who drops in via lfg who immediately asks how many people have Touch of Malice, as though the raid is impossible without it.
First of all, I do believe the raid was completed many a time before anyone even had that gun.
Secondly, the person who asks this question is always the one who ends up dying on their platform while the runner is torn and trying to grab the relic.
If you have decent light level I really don't give a shit what weapons you have, as long as you can hit the broad side of a barn that is Oryxs gaping chest hole, and detonate the ogre orb that you're supposed to.
Rant over.
Edit: Why is this trending this is something I posted before I went to sleep last night. I'm just glad everyone focused on my raid completions and not how many times I haven't completed. Way to stay positive guys! :D
Edit 2: Shoutout to all the nerds who have nothing better to do but look me up on destiny tracker to dig up all this info on how often I play this game. You're the real heroes today.
Edit 3: btw I'm playing the hard raid rn if anyone wants to join

PresidenteBushSee you on Tau Ceti IV - old
How many Touch of Malice's do you have? -
2 RepliesIts mostly just inconsiderate and impolite. This is your group the you're putting together and you can assemble it whichever way you want. If they have thoughts on how a group should be formed they should be making their own. I could tolerate the question but I can see why you wouldn't.

6 RepliesAt the Daughters it's an important question because after you slam if you're to close the snipers will miss there shots due to being flinched by adds, the daughters head moving around & flailing their arms. It has more to do with the zoom of the sniper scope than anything else. If my team is running mostly snipers we choose a location further away from the platforms & closer if we mostly have Malice.

Sounds good. I'll do hard again sometime...I still don't have touch and may be doing the least damage but working on it so I don't get carried..

4 raid completions on normal.......

[quote]First of all, I do believe the raid was completed many a time before anyone even had that gun.[/quote] Yes it was, but how many times did you wipe because you guys didn't get good DPS on Oryx? A full auto scout rifle that doubles it's damage on the last round makes that DPS a lot easier. Also, what about daughters? Having multiple ToM can help decide if you're doing 2 round or 3+ round. [quote]Secondly, the person who asks this question is always the one who ends up dying on their platform while the runner is torn and trying to grab the relic.[/quote] This is just confirmation bias and irrelevant to your rant since people can die 1000 ways on oryx. Heck, you might be even neglecting this person's plee for help because "he has ToM, he doesn't need help."

My buddy and I managed to duo normal oryx without ToM, we both used Eirene with Lita and it worked wonders.

1 ReplyWhy would you boot someone who is Sherpa-ing you.

While it's your call since it's your group I still think that's rather rude. Sure you don't NEED ToM. just like you never NEEDED Ghorn. but it makes things easier. Easier is comfort. Humans like comfort.

2 RepliesEvery time? You only have 4 Raid completions...on Normal.

2 RepliesFor oryx touch of mailce is probably not needed but i think that touch of malice is still the best gun for deathsingers. Correct me if i am wronh

Edited by OuO_Whats_This: 12/3/2015 12:10:13 PMEvery time someone asks that question doesn't immediately mean they're gonna be a douche or even CARE if everyone all has ToM or not, they might just legitimately wanna know to see how much easier the last half will be

Edited by NameViolator: 12/3/2015 12:10:39 PMLol. I ask 3 question. 1. have you completed the raid 2. Were you ever carried through the raid 3. Were the others, in the carried raid, know they were carrying you. Otherwise most limitations can be overcome with patience and communication.
-
Everyone I raid with is usually above 312 so I just assume they have it
-
You sir are a hero

13 RepliesEveryone has ToM by now, no need to ask

It's a simple question that is used to gauge what person would be most efficient at what roll in the strat your using. It makes things go quicker and smoother if every person plays to their strengths depending on class and weapon load out.
-
2 RepliesWell said Seth!! Too many people forget (or just don't care) that the raid was done without it at first. And for those that just don't care...what happened to lending a hand and being helpful to a fellow gamer?

Anyone else getting a sense of dejá vü? [spoiler]*cough* Gjallarhorn *cough*[/spoiler]

Edited by Sherpa: 12/3/2015 6:23:39 AMI always ask simply because it's useful to know. (For daughters / flinching oryx) It's not required but it's nice to know how many there are, same for snipers. [spoiler]i carry people through the raid all the time so I don't kick people for not having it. I took a 269 through normal and a 302 through hard.[/spoiler] [spoiler]i wouldn't care if you kicked me with your 4 oryx completions kid. I almost have 10x that. And would only join to help out, if I ask how many we have that's because if we only have 1 or 2 we'd do the 3 cycle strat on daughters. If we have 3+ we'd do the 2 cycle strat. You wouldn't know that though. [/spoiler]

Why would you be lead anyway?
-
That brings us to the real question then, how many does your raid group have?
-
I always ask...... simply because im curious, ive killed oryx on hard with me and another titan being the only people with malices, but their should be nothing wrong in asking about it????
-
man chill, probably just making conversation, I do this but wouldn't care if everyone said they didnt

5 RepliesI think someone with a 309 hunter as their highest level character shouldn't demand anything from anyone. In fact, you should be greatful you can find randoms to raid with you at all. What do you post anyway, "309 hunter who doesn't use touch of malice looking oryx cp"? 👍
