So I've never done a raid...

I've always wanted to do one, and believe me, I've searched endlessly on the recruitment page for someone like me, but the descriptions are always "must be experienced" or "know what you're doing". To add injury to insult, I also don't have a mic, and whoever wants to do a raid with someone who doesn't have a mic has a problem. I have 3 Siva Cache Keys, which kill me every time I go to my inventory, and of course the wotm quest, the needle in my haystack of quests. I know you get the best loot from raids, and it's fun as heck, but I guess I'm missing out. A lot. Edit: With all the advice I've gotten here (thank you to everyone who helped), I'm going to finally do WotM. So far, there's three people who'd like to help me, and I'm getting a mic tomorrow. Once I group up two more people, I'll do the raid sometime tomorrow or on the weekend. If anybody would like to join, just comment! (I'm on PS4) :) Edit: I can't believe it, I finally (almost) did a raid. I got two exotics so far, some really good legendaries, and on top of that, I had tremendous fun. I got up to Aksis phase 2, but my team kept screwing up, so we'll try again tomorrow. Overall an amazing experience.

  • Make your own LFG post. You might get picked up by a friendly group that can carry you and teach at the same time. You may also get a handful of guys in your same position. I've only run it one time myself. WotM really only needs one person that is not completely clueless. It will probably take a little longer with several people that don't know it, but that could be entertaining as long as you all keep your cool in rough spots and/or take a break when people start getting a bit edgy. Also, if you think about it... The first time any of these raids were completed, nobody knew what was going on. Even if it's a really cheap mic... I would highly recommend one. It simply adds to the fun. You could also set up a set of moves (dance, sit, point, etc...) to let whoever the lead person is, know that you understand (or don't understand). Like, dance when you understand, sit when you don't. That type of thing. I rarely talk on mic with people I don't yet know very well, but I ALWAYS have it on when playing. If I were to put up a post for myself, it would start something like this... "Looking for a group to help teach me WotM". The subject matter would contain any limiting factors up front (in your case, no mic. and no experience) and then follow with any positives (high powered weapons you might have that could be beneficial). Let them come to you. Not the easiest or quickest way, but you might find yourself with a pretty good little group of people.
