That's right, people. It's finally been made. The complete guide to beating the Tower raid. I know many of you have trouble with this one, and it is indeed harder than KF hard
mode. But don't let this deter you. With the right coordination and guns, this raid will be a breeze.
[b]Section 1: Jumping Puzzle[/b]
This part of the raid is probably the easiest, but is still pretty difficult. Right when you spawn into the Tower, respawning is instantly restricted. In front of you and your whole team should be a small set of stairs. This has to be perfectly timed and coordinated, now. Countdown from three, and when it's time to
jump, jump over the steps. Sounds easy, but I have had to kick many a raider over this part of the raid.
Possible Loot: none
[b]Section 2: Rahool[/b]
For this part of the raid, your whole fireteam must crouch down and sneak up on Rahool. While you're doing this, one of your "engram runners" must have at least one blue and one legendary engram. Once the rest of the fireteam gets to Rahool, they will start furiously teabagging him. This is the engram-runners cue to turn in the engrams. If you do it right, you'll get a debuff called "Cryptarchs' Curse" where every single engram you pick up for the rest of the raid Insta-kills you. Now you have to have the engram-runner teabag Rahool until he squeals with delight and you can open the chest.
Possible Loot: Tower Ghost (1 light), Rahools' Plight (300 attack sidearm, shoots useless, crappy engrams that do no damage at people)
[b]Section 3: the Sweeper Bot[/b]
This is arguably the hardest part of the raid besides the end boss. The sweeper bot is as unforgiving as it is difficult. You have to run down The Hallway (no easy feat), and find the bot. Once you do, make sure everyone has Broom of Chelchis equipped. If a single person doesn't have it, kick them immediately. Now, once the sweeper bot has been activated, it will start sweeping the Tower. The thing is, your fireteam has to sweep more of the Tower than the sweeper bot. I'll let you guys figure out the best strat for this. Remember, coordination is key here.
Possible Loot: Broom of Chelchis, Sweep Gloves (gauntlets)
[b]Section 4: Xur[/b]
When you get to Xur (no doubt after wandering around the tower wondering where that sneaky bastard could have gone for three hours), he'll be in a corner of some sort. You have to have half of your team go into his inventory and get the debuff "Xurs Inventory." Don't worry, if the debuff is shown with a pile of shit nearby, that's not a bug. It's supposed to be like that. The debuff turns half the teams weapons into this weeks exotic weapons, making them worse than they already were. The other half has to spam 3 of coins to spam on some other boss later. Once this is done, you walk through a portal and go to.......
Possible Loot: none, because Xur is shit
[spoiler][b]Section 5: VARIKS[/b][/spoiler]
THATS RIGHT PEOPLE THE RAID BOSS IS VARIKS. You through the portal and there is Variks, mines in hand, itching to be dismantled. He suddenly releases them all, and you have to dismantle them all in 30 sec (there's 6 of them). Once you have them dismantled, Skolas will appear. Go through his whole process and then you can do damage to Variks. Once he gets to half health, Atheon comes out and you have to fight both. Not very hard without some practice. Then, once you've killed Variks, it's over.
[spoiler][b]PSYCH BITCH XYLAR IS THE LAST BOSS HAHA GL TRYING TO BEAT THAT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH[/b][/spoiler]

2 RepliesYou forgot to mention that you must master the skill of "vaultstanding" to truly beat the tower raid. This is done by staring at your collection of year one weapons with awesome perks and deciding which ones to dismantle next.

Lol you win EVERYTHING.

2 RepliesBump Yeah, you have like pretty much no replies. Basically what happens is you post it at a bad time and it gets lost in the massive amount of forum posts.
