In general I enjoy killing Crota, but I have one issue with it, one BIG issue. The sword bearer. The sword bearer in my opinion needs to be fixed. Here are my reasons:
1. The rocks. As you know there are rocks outside the door where the sword bearer spawns, these are fine, mostly. The problem is when he stays behind the rocks leaving us unable to kill him from the window ledge giving us little time for the sword bearing guardian to attack before he moves. My friends describe this as "aids".
2. The ogre rooms. This problem is similar to the last one but instead he decides to goes to the rooms where the ogres spawn leaving us with much the same problems as my last point.
In my opinion either the rocks should be removed or there should be something in the sword bearer's code limiting him from entering these rooms. Or both.
I hope the bungee devs see this.
Edit. Holy shit guys it was just a thought don't get mad.

Edited by Synge_X: 2/28/2015 8:14:25 PMMake note of the best players in your group. These are usually the guys in your group who never die in the Crystal room, even when the knights are charging them. When the sword bearer runs off to hide. Send one or two of the best players who can survive in front of the sword bearers door, and have them kill the Sword bearer with heavy(with the sword runner). Have one run into the ogre room that they are closest to(after killing the sword bearer) and have him shoot up at Crota from the door while the main team shoots Crota. Have the other guy run up the stairs(on the same side that the sword runner is going to be attacking from), back to the window, this will Aggro the boomers so that they don't shoot your sword runner(if only one other person goes down to assist the sword runner, have him do this instead of going to the ogre room). The layout and positioning, is to make sure that you're able to kill the sword bearer and get into position for damage as well as getting the attention of the boomers. I hope this helps. My group is killing Crota in one try at this point.

Lol might as well ask for invincibility for all sword bearers
-
Lol wow your just bad dude
-
Just launch a gally at him and he usually moves
-
So you just want him to stand there in plain site, so he is easily killed, and there is zero challenge? Yeah, this will never happen...

Edited by IrishTheSavage: 2/28/2015 5:41:53 PMWell i dont think game was intended for us to stay at one place and thats it.. we as a community figuered its the best strategy.. so when he does roam and do whatever he wants we blame it on bungie.. now Crota... going down to the ogre room.. or sword dissapearing is an issue lol The Irony of your Name.. should be Spoonfed :p [spoiler]go get that scrub!

The problem your describing is just for the spot your choosing to use for downing Crota. The lay of the room is to give the AI an advantage (you are on their home turf) and to prevent range abuse since the AI tries to break line of sight when it can't path to the player. If your having trouble with the sword, try killing Crota from a different position or have your sword carrier run him down with rockets to get him out of hiding.

I run sword for my clan. If he hides, I find him and kill him. Any decent sword runner knows how to do this. Your group needs to practice and figure it out.
-
Also quit aggroing him to ogre areas. Anybody shooting or visually seen will aggro him to other areas. Get in middle room and shoot the floor in front of the glass and aggro him to the area below the ledge.
-
LMAO. LURE HIM OUT OR GO GET HIM
-
So you are asking for a raid, the hardest missions in the game, to be made easier because it inconveniences you? It is the responsibility of your sword bearer to draw the sword bearer back into sight of the rest of the team.
