I would run normal so I can get a third hoc, swordbreaker, and still need 2 light of the abyss. Which only drop on normal.
-
Because you can only get some crota weapons on normal
-
Needed a blackhammer??? Or a hunger?
-
Same reason they raid before they Nightfall...they don't seem to understand (or maybe they don't care) that doing the NF gives you an XP bonus for [i]everything[/i] you do after that for the remainder of the week (until next Tuesday's reset). Doing Crota Hard first gives you double dips to the reward pool. Doing normal first means you need to do it again to get those extra rewards, instead of getting everything in one go. That's how i understand it, anyway.

HoC and Swordbreaker.
-
Because Black Hammer, that's why
-
I run it for black Hammer
-
It's also double shot at a exotic after killing crota.. We do the same on atheon for those that still need the g-horn
-
We do it so my buddy has 2 chances at gjally from Crota instead of 1.
-
Get loot from normal and then you can get loot from check points on hard
-
Buff this post. It really needs help.
-
I'm doing normal first to learn and get 32. Then once I have all my shards and what weapons I do have maxed, then I'll do hard mode a few times before HoW drops. If you have a good raid group who can bring you a long at 31/tower gear, then more power to you since HM drops everything. Saves the trips. Farming NM is the best way once you get your weapons if you're not too into HM.
-
To get the special / heavy weapons. Really you should try to just run the Crota checkpoint on Normal (the only place weapons drop on normal) then hard mode the rest of the raid (including Crota again) if you still need things from this raid. I've got nothing to gain from it and haven't run it for a while.
-
I've been finding lately given the amount of glitches in Crota that running normal at least gives the chance to beat him in a reasonable amount of time. I've run hard at the Crota CP to many times and for too long (given my limited amount of time to play) where he glitches and causes a wipe. Plus given the amount of heavy that you end up using (I do the heavy ammo glitch at the start) I just find that hard Crota just burns to much time for limited return. I do want the word of Crota though :( really want it.
-
I run it on normal up to crota for the easy shards ane energy. Then I go to the forums for a hard mode group and spend the next three hours of my life hating every part of that decision.
-
The items and the normal can be considered a dry run for hard so that you have an idea of what's coming.
-
I did it for 2 chances at a chest and helmet.
-
Cos they want the weapons available from normal crota drop
-
Black hammer, hunger of Crota, and sword breaker only drop on normal.
-
Normal to for a possible drop of the hunger and hard for a possible drop of the word. I received a crux drop but not going to use it. Maybe when I am rank 3 with eris but not in a hurry.
-
For drops, hm only had a few drops once you have those normal is the more lucrative run.
-
My friends run normals first for secondary and heavy weapons
-
I do it for more chances at exotics, rather than just 2. 1: deathsinger 2: killing Crota on normal 3: killing Crota on hard. If you do hard then there's only 2 chances for a drop.
-
Primaries only drop on hard, once you get the guns you want like fang of ir yut, you don't need to do hard anymore.
-
Swordbreaker, black hammer, light in the abyss, hunger of crota, and song of ir utt
-
I needed a swordbreaker still (I got 2 last night!).
