What is this "totem cheese" you speak of
I havent been on the forums in agggggeeeess and i hear of a new cheese

#Destiny

In my experience, ask the group your running with if they know it or not. If everyone knows it, go ahead and run it. If there is one person who has no idea about it, but knows how to run it normally, just run it normal. You might say it saves time doing the cheese, but by the time you've explained it, you could have just run it normal. I also feel that teaching new players the cheese over the normal way is a disservice to them.

2 RepliesEdited by KebintheGervil: 2/5/2016 2:42:46 PMThe process arguably makes it easier to run the totems and if you have a team of randoms with shaky teamwork, it puts the work emphasis firmly on the totem holders. I've seen it take ages to explain the process, time which could have be used actually running the normal process. I'm happy to run it either way, it's the end result that matters to me. It makes me laugh heartily when I read vitriolic posts from people about how they hate these "cheats" when is unlikely they will ever play with these players. Plus, very few players excel at every aspect of this game and you never know; that "cheating bastard" you vilified so much might actually be your saviour some other time.

So much salt every time it's mentioned I've ran full raid both ways never had any issues it's just what people prefer, is what I go with.

It is the one that you bring the auras to the totems
-
32 RepliesIt's where you spend 30 minutes explaining to the rest of the fireteam how to glitch a 5 minute battle.

12 RepliesAnyone who cheeses Totems needs to uninstall Destiny. Same goes for people who don't run 8+8/16 orb strategy. Bungie please patch this silly cheese so these casuals can stop wasting my time. Thanks!

It's barely a cheese. Being blocked from HM VoG because I didn't have a pulse grenade for the Templar cheese was a real cheese.

Cheese is crap, I prefer not cheering the totems
-
Make sure you bring some crackers and salt to sprinkle on top.

1 ReplyIt's something for nubs who somehow find totems to be challenging
-
1 ReplySwiss cheese

Instant kick from my fire tam if you even mutter that crap during the raid there is no need what so ever to cheese one of the easiest parts of the raid
-
Its not good unless you are lacking 6 people

Edited by aikidoshi: 2/5/2016 6:14:10 AMIt is well described below by Easymoney725. I can't understand all the (very typical for this forum) negativity though. It makes this so easy and quick to get through, removes all of the risk. Last week I did the totems 3 times with one group using the cheese and it never failed. A few days later I went through with some guys who insisted on doing the legit method 'because it is so easy why bother', and after 5 failed attempts we changed to the cheese strategy and had it done in 10 minutes.

3 RepliesIf I get in a group that wants to cheese I leave, if they can't do that part legit, your fuked the rest of the raid.

1 ReplyIt's where u stop what you are doing and explain to the whole fire team for about 10 minutes what to do. Then usually a few will need to go back to the tower, and when everybody finally gets ready you spend a few extra minutes explaining it again. Then you will still wipe a few times because somebody isn't going to do something right and by this time you've been at totems for half an hour+
-
If a group is bad enough that they can't even do the totems legit, just leave. You're screwed for the rest of the raid.

1 ReplyEdited by SameDice: 2/5/2016 6:16:58 AMIt's a cheese for a part of the raid that if it needs cheesing, go ahead and leave that fireteam because the rest of the encounters are gonna be rough for them.

Yea scrubs use it.

Easier than original

10 RepliesEquip a sword. Hold block and walk into the poison mist. Your sword will "tick" every time you would take damage. When it starts to tick twice as fast, about twice a second, walk out of mist and release block. You are now immune to the damage from the mist. Go sit on a totem. There is a rock you can hide behind on either side where acolytes can't shoot you. Snipe boomers as they appear. The guys in the middle grab brand and hang out up top near the middle. When it transfers, step onto middle plate to get rid of deathsingers, then step back into the brand aura. If someone dies or misses the brand they can simply wait and pick it back up. No worrying about totems wiping the team.

It's a complicated cheese for an easy part of the raid
-
wtf is a totem????
-
Edited by Gunslinger: 2/5/2016 2:26:20 AM2 people use swords to back in and out of the damage zone near totems until they no longer take damage. They then can chill on the totems while the other 4 switch back and fourth on the platform with the buff. It isn't any easier. It's pointless really.
-
That part is so easy. If you need to cheese that part, you obviously shouldn't even attempt at the raid.
