It just took me an hour and a half to do atheon on hard with a group of guys who ran through CE normal in 29 minutes. The reason why? They weren't getting oracles down fast enough. Mind you everyone in tis group was a 31 or 32. I saw MIDA, Thorns and words of Crota being used on oracles, just to list a few. Do people not realize how important oracle disruptor is?
Thanks for all the replies guys good to see that a lot of people use oracle disruptor primaries. I'll also have to give Super Good Advice a shot as that seems to be a favorite amongst you guys

Yup. Helps big time. Also if your having trouble with oracles get a 4th person to go in and help.
-
I like to save my heavy and secondary ammo for atheon
-
VoG and the Crucible are the only reasons I even still have my VoG weapons.
-
VoG Hard oracles is the only place outside of a Void Burn nightfall that I use my Atheon's Epilogue, specifically for the rate of fire, and Oracle Disruptor. And because I don't have Praetorian Foil or Corrective Measure :(...
-
I have a maxed Word of Crota and Abyss Defiant and I can barely down an Oracle at Atheon on Hard solo. I absolutely use Oracle Disrupter. VoC is always in my inventory. VoC at 300 makes short work of Oracles.
-
I run fatebringer, praedyth revenge & gally on vog. Yea, oracles will die
-
any machine gun makes short work of oracles. void, arc,solar, kinetic . doesn't really matter as long as you point it and shoot it. one guy with a primary and one with machine gun and u shouldn't burn through your ammo .
-
Corrective measure all the way
-
No I use my mythoclast on hard
-
Corrective measure is amazing for oracles
-
Atheon load out post DLC Word or crota Blackhammer Corrective measures.
-
Pretorian Foil is my favorite gun to use on oracles
-
My loadout throughout the whole raid: Fatebringer Icebreaker Hezen vengeance
-
ppl are dumb..... I have VOG raid gear for VOG raids..... idiots.. Same with Crota....
-
VoC for the win!!!
-
the only 2 guns i ever use at atheon are VOC and icebreaker. VOC on oracles, icebreaker on atheon.
-
i always have VoC on just in case, but i also keep a Super Good Advice on hand if it turns out we need the little bit of extra help inside the portal. if i ever get teleported and am not the one holding the relic, SGA wrecks them so bad i may as well do them solo. SGA also kills detain bubbles with a quickness -- first mine, then my teammates' bubbles to help them get free too. that ammo-returning perk works amazingly.
-
Use a fusion rifle. 2 shots and it's dead. Or use ur ice breaker. Everyone should have one now. The come out and use it again on atheon . Bam 3 teleports and it's over .
-
I can't believe how many people are wasting heavies/ exotic slots on oracles, my raid team all use VoC and we've never failed on oracles without lag issues

Edited by Gunz_85: 2/20/2015 6:09:21 PMOnly noobs use primary on oracles. Corrective measure or Pretorians foil. FTW
-
Atheon loadout: Vex Black hammer corrective measure
-
corrective measure is the best. VOC is the next best, eplioge if that's all you got, that order. Fate bringer works but you got to be right under it.
-
Corrective measure, hunter Golden Gun, Super Good advice, Praetorian foil (if you have it) are the best weapons to bring oracles down. If you have a good 331 weapon I'm pretty sure mathematically it isn't that much less than another vog primary with oracle disruptor. I like using the relic to kill them though, that's much more fun.

Edited by kadam83: 2/20/2015 6:07:06 PMI've ran Atheon on VOG hard more than reg, and every time I use Vision of Confluence. Never had an issue. It takes a couple of extra bullets, but I want to save my Ice Breaker rounds for Atheon when we get out of the Venus/Mars instance. Never once held anyone up. That being said, I'm seriously thinking of trying out an LMG. I don't have SGA, but I have Prestige IV with Solar. Wondering if it would have similar results? I just don't really like the gun. It was RNG with a crappy perk roll for a situation like that (increased hip fire, who's next? and Hammer Forged). Even with Hammer Forged ,the stability isn't great so it's just not fun to fire.

Corrective measure.. nuff said

Corrective Measure melts them.
