Places your bets for Oryx Challenge: Kill knights or different runners
So what's your guess for tomorrow.
Smart money says Bungie will make us pick a new runner each time since the first 2 challenges essentially wanted a different player to do the primary boss mechanic.
Longshot says they will want all 4 knights killed per rotation, which essentially stops the No Knight strategy.

It's funny cause how it worked was given to Bungie or at least it was very convenient that the strat is exactly like the a group did it a few weeks back and the community manager posted it under the weekly update as an interesting way to beat oryx.

1 ReplyCouldnt be to kill all knights cuz this is a hardmode only mechanic, or am i wrong?
-
Neither of those were correct
-
2 RepliesYou have to run clockwise.
-
2 RepliesNormal challenge still drops 320?
-
6 RepliesWell as yall probably know by now, you must detonate all 16 blights on the 4th round.

Edited by bren12310: 12/15/2015 11:41:17 AMNeither, they originally intended it to be so you had to kill the Knights so there would be no real challenge. Also, they having a different runner each time is wayyyyyyyyy to easy so there's no way it would be that I bet it's going to be something like every orb needs to be detonated each time or it's a wipe
-
We know what it is now, but 'kill all knights' couldn't have been it because challenge mode exists in normal mode as well.

2 RepliesDifferent runners. Easy strat: [b]Team positions[/b] Relic runner Platform 1 Platform 2 Platform 3 Extra 1 Extra 2 Extras 1 and 2 can be your titans hanging up top, or just killing adds. Depends on your strategy. [u]Platform phase 1[/u] All goes normal. Relic runner jumps up with 1, then 2 and 3 activate in order. Nothing different. [u]Platform phase 2[/u] Relic runner takes platform position 1, platform 1 does the relic [u]Platform phase 3[/u] Relic runner takes platform position 2, platform 2 does the relic [u]Platform phase 4[/u] Relic runner takes platform position 3, platform 3 does the relic Done. The only person who needs to swap positions every time is the relic runner. Everyone else just needs to worry about which phase they are running the relic and swapping with the original relic runner. That is, to say, that different runners is the challenge...
-
Best bet would be switch runners and always have to detonate 4 bombs. Those are the only parameters I can think of that can work in both normal and hard mode. Far Stretch guess, nobody can use touch of malice, but that's too much work for Bungie lol.

Edited by NoniSyn10: 12/15/2015 5:16:44 AMJust imagine for a minute. In the shade world the shadow is replaced by crota. A sword spawns after the relic dissaperes in damage phase, and the guy that picks it up goes in first. Basic crota mechanics, but with an everlasting sword (until shade world kills you) with his sheilds having a "refresh rate". It would also require 6 sets of 3 slams as you can get more in. That would never happen though
-
2 RepliesIt can't be knights, the challenge spans across both difficulties, there are no knights in normal. My guess is either switching runners, having to detonate all 4 bombs everytime or both.
-
So it's usually two runs then shadow phase then two more? Or three if you don't get all the bombs?
-
No touch of malice. Different runner each time. Ogres have increased health. (Knights too. If on hard) Oryx does not need to slam on a plate to begin the cycle.
-
1 ReplyChallengers need to shoot down the ship
-
1 ReplyI predict it is different runners. And I predict lots of disasters and frustration.
-
Maybe you have to detonate all orbs every time
-
-
Both hopefully
-
-
Relic runner has to dodge tomb ships
-
1 ReplyThey're gonna make different relic runners and you must kill the vessel after every damage phase
-
3 RepliesIf they want to make it hard challenge mode... -same person can't run relic twice - same person can't jump on a platform twice - must detonate all 4 blights every round -must use all 4 platforms to get to the relic -must kill ogres before u stagger oryx, if killed after stagger he absorbs the blight. (This last one I don't feel as if it will be a challenge) This would make hard oryx challenge mode a CHALLENGE!
-
Why not both
-
Jloco bro! I love your videos especially Mario kart lol
-
But the knights aren't in normal mode and the challenge is optionally different runners is my guess
