After a day of many multiple attempts at the Black Spindle; I have a new found respect for for those who have it. We (multiple groups of "we") could easily get to the Taniks wannabe with 6 min remaining but then it's blight/adds management hell. We managed to get the big guy down once with 1:30 remaining but there were so many adds.
so.
many.
adds.
So hats off to you Black Spindle holders. Hope it's worth the PTSD
EDIT: Big shoutout to @Sniping piikey, and an LFG random @UNR34LG4MER. Thanks to them, I managed to finally get the Black Spindle. I was starting to think I was the problem.

Just gotta spam orbs constantly.. That helped my group. So you guys are popping two supers in each room, then snipe the champion. You'll get it next time :)
-
Me and my 2 friends barely finished it with one second left.
-
I played it like this: One snipes the boss and then picks off some ads/blight in the general area. Other two focus solely on ads and blights. Successful with every team I've done it with.
-
Lol what is it? My Titan is 290 and at full health I got killed with one shot to the head.
-
Just get some raze lighters in there. Makes it MUCH easier
-
Edited by Ashikon: 3/8/2016 1:53:58 AM-One sniper mag can easily take out a blight -StormCaller/Sunbreaker can kills those pesky psions Focus on these in order 1.)Blights 2.)Shielded Enemies 3.)Snipers 4.)Ads 5.)Boss
-
Wish I had it lol. Never have time to get on when the mission rolls around ;-; Still one thing that depresses me more. [spoiler]Bungie still hasn't officially announced a REAL fusion rifle nerf. I'm thinking .004% nerf to stability is a good start.[/spoiler]
-
Done it like 4 or 5 times now helping some friends. Not so hard if you know what your doing. Swords help

Edited by x Auto Pilot x: 3/8/2016 12:45:29 AMYesterday was the first time that I was able to run the daily with my friends (can't play much during the week) and both times we completed it with 3 minutes to spare. All of the groups I have picked up from LFG have always tried to burst the boss down instead of clearing the blights and adds first. With a coordinated group constantly using supers to generate orbs, taking out the blights first, clearing all adds, and then sniping the boss, it really becomes simple. The difficult part is getting a coordinated team.
-
The Golgoroth gun. Man that mission was a pain in the ass.
-
i have a flashback every month at least once... so much blindness so much blight so much psions why
-
2 RepliesWe did it with a minute to spare yesterday. Also one of our fire team only has one hand.
-
1 ReplyI literally only use it for one raid boss. That is all. Then it's right back to the 1k
-
2 Replies1. Blights 2. Adds. 3. Boss 4. Profit.
-
Nice that you did it... For future ref... Thunderhands(stormtrance) is THE add consumer...make sure u have the double chaining and your good to go
-
2 RepliesI did it the first day with very minimal strategy on a team of 3 players well below 300 light. The one strategy we did use was for me to use my Nighthawk GG after my Nightstalker teammate shot him with a bow. 4x a critical GG shot is a ton of damage (the Night-hunter combo is nasty, and so under-used). Our third (Sunbreaker) cleared ads while we focused on the boss.
-
i still have the nightmares......
-
Word of advice, after killing the "taniks wanna be" use rockets, Stormcallers and Nightstalkers to kill the ads
-
I GOT SPINDLE I GOT carried tho
-
Shout out to GA x Caesar for helping many of us in our Quests for Black Spindle!
-
2 RepliesI got the spindle this time (thanks to an Italien LFG), but I don't know if I will use it. I have a 320 KYS and it has worked well allround. I also like to use an exotic primary. I will try out the Spindle on Warpriest and Golgoroth though.
-
Honestly man, it's only hard to you because you don't have an exotic sword. They put it on easy mode. Black Spindle mission really isn't hard.
-
2 RepliesI still have nightmares about the multiplying psions and black balls of hate stealing my sight[spoiler]*breaks down crying *[/spoiler]
-
We had like 40 seconds left

Not really worth your exotic slot, just use the Vanguard vendor sniper. It's got Longview for stupid aim assist, triple tap which is sadly better than white nail, perfect balance because nobody likes recoil, and mulligan because we all suck.
