The Crotas end hard mode raid is currently the most challenging activity in the game. It's is something I have a goal of completing and I like the loot too. However, I have not been able to complete it past Crota yet.
This is largely due to the fact that [b]the sword disappears the moment it is picked up by a guardian[/b]. This is a major flaw in the design of the raid and bugs like this will be a reason many people stop playing the raid or destiny completely. I am very frustrated as this is something I enjoy doing and it is literally [b]impossible[/b] with the current bugs.
This [b]needs to be patched immediately to keep people playing this game!!!![/b]
Tl;Dr
The sword disappears instantly when I'm trying to kill Crota on hard. This bug needs to be patched Tuesday.
Edit: Bump this so it gets patched. We can't let this thread die or the bug won't get fixed.
Edit: I say it's "impossible" because you can't kill Crota without the sword.

Bump. This needs to be fixed.

There are a few bugs that really mess up that run such as the sword disappearing. But most of the time, things are working as they should. This along with Crota getting up faster and noticing an invisible swordbearer are the ones I hate though.

Bungie can't even polish this turd right. /:

worked for us... maybe its your console? or account? or character? or the shader you were wearing?? OH did you have an even amount of glimmer?? that will totally cause it!

It disappears if someone uses a heavy synth when it has dropped. Regardless, if you can't beat it because of some rare bug, it's not going to make a difference if they patch it or not.
-
It is actually due to lag. I know this because there was a lag spike right before it happened.
-
Had Crota easily within one more sword of death twice earlier today, both times dropped the sword bearer and right when our runner grabs the sword, poof it's gone, then enrage is near and it's basically a wipe. Fix it, bungie.

To many bugs in HM corta we had a non laggy run it took us 12mins we had sword dissapearing 3 times in a row the next run we did
-
We just need to be just as loud about these bugs as we are about the cheeses. Sadly, I believe that Bungie is under the impression that Destiny players are more concerned with cheeses than bugs and glitches. It is up to us to encourage Bungie to prioritize patches in our favor. It has become very much apparent to me that spamming the forum with repeat topics is how we will get our way.

It's because someone hit the sword with a rocket or cluster bombs right when it dropped. Use 2 rockets and secondary to avoid it. Horrible glitch
-
Your swordsmen either takes to long to pick up the sword and it will disappear, Or depending on where it drops in the raid it will Drop through the ground
-
That's because it's a MAGIC sword!
-
Yeah this bug needs to be fixed that's for sure... but impossible? It doesn't make it impossible...
-
This happened to us as well. You gotta just keep trying until you get it. We spent over an hour running through Crota on hard because of bugs in the game!

Edited by Apollo: 1/26/2015 4:41:59 AMYup I think this is bungies way of saying don't ever cheese our game as a punishment lmao

Seen this happen first hand. Disappeared once, killed the SB again and got it back.
