Hi everyone,
I just uploaded my first video tutorial on YouTube. The video shows how Hunters can easily kill Crota with 2 swords with the help of a few teammates. If your team has the firepower (read: Gjallarhorns) you can take him down before the Ogres spawn, as shown in the video.
Note: Make sure to enable the annotations for extra tips!
Big shout out to my clan Army of Alpha Lupi :)
Hope this helped guys, enjoy your victory.
EDIT: It's great to see all the positive feedback guys! I enjoy reading your comments and want to thank all of you for additional tips & tricks people can use for the Crota fight. Expect our clan to provide more video tutorials for the raid in the future!
Make sure to like and share this video so everyone can see that there's really no cheesing needed!

1 ReplyEdited by TigBits: 1/15/2015 12:51:44 PMThanks for the vid - there are many out there who will never admit this - but ive only ever cheesed crota raid - getting a pub group to try normal and not cheese is really hard to do - And on the cheesing note, im just glad bungie patched the main cheeses MUCH faster than they did VoG - it wasnt long enough to scar everyone perm (10 -15 completions + Fix cheese = bunch a scrubs running around lol) anyways - videos like these showing legit ways are really nice and help out alot - i hope to find a group that will take me and show me the proper way to do everything - TBH, Ill prob just post on lfg that im new to the raid and dont know what to do

3 RepliesEdited by thKingntheNorth: 1/15/2015 8:57:21 PMHey guys, Mr Krazy Karl has only done CE 15 times, but he's done it THE RIGHT WAY 15 times. The rest of us are scrubs who use insolent crutches like weapons and cover and strategy. Oh great Mr Krazy Karl, please forgive us our transgressions and teach us the ways of communification and working as though you were a part of a collection of players attempting to achieve the same goal. These are foreign ideas to us and we know not how to obtain such celestial and ancient knowledge. I bow, as I'm sure Crota does, to your greatness, iCpt [spoiler]Did I mention this guy's a total dick bag?[/spoiler]

34 RepliesNot surprised that people are using this as a good example of a Crota kill because barely anyone has ever done it legit. In reality this is a very mediocre sword bearer using invisibility as a crutch instead of team communication and timing. Any 32 can kill Crota in two swords, and this video of the sword bearer and team was impressive only for its mediocrity. Not to mention using the lower hallway for positioning is also a crutch for less skilled players who lack raid awareness and requires a dedicated sniper or two to stay up top. All you have done is teach bad habits and methods to the Destiny masses. Regards, KK

People hating on a tutorial to show them an easy way to beat it. Why don't they show us a link to an easier way instead of being egotistical and keep their precious guides to themselves.

8 RepliesThis is legit. I'll have to try this. If someone would bump my comment so I can come back to it, I'd appreciate it!

Edited by Sonic Roctopus: 1/16/2015 5:25:34 AMThis shows how useful a hunter can be in a part of the raid. I know a lot of hunters get shit cause they're not as useful in raids but each hunter should be ready to do this whenever they get to crota. I hate when I got a 32 hunter on my team that doesn't know how to be sword carrier. I don't mind doing it but ever 32 should know how to do it.

4 RepliesThis is my preferred method, but all the random groups I do it with like do the "Left side". This just seems more efficient.

Edited by The Playmaker26: 1/15/2015 10:44:03 PMPretty poor damages with the sword bro. Combo does way more. Blink strike stealth was pro though

33 RepliesEdited by Some Black Guy: 1/14/2015 5:48:25 PM60+ sword clears now from helping randoms out. ✊ As a 31, I'd always kill him right after the Ogres. 👎 As a 32, I kill him before the ogres. 👍 It is so much fun being the sword user. 💀 I run it on my Warlock now as a 32. 💪 I'll use a Titan's bubble for protection, sit & wait up there with him, while the team lowers his shields.🔫

2 RepliesEdited by the ben obiwan: 1/15/2015 1:50:32 PMIf anyone would like to see "Left Strat", which in my opinion is more successful, check out this video. Left, or Mid strat, I hope you all kick Crota's butt. https://account.xbox.com/en-au/gameclip/49de0742-845e-45e7-8828-19e3f04440f6?gamerTag=the+ben+obiwan&scid=03a80100-9ff3-46ea-be76-e00e7fe465df&lc=2057

4 Replies2 swords?? You only have to you use one sword. Apparently you don't know how to use it

1 ReplyNice work dude, don't let comments from supposedly elite players deter you from sharing your insights. This game is played by thousands and there are many ways to accomplish the same goal. Good for you and your Clan. Keep those videos coming!
-
1 ReplyNice 1 dude, played with a few who don't understand that rockets take him down not 5 shooting with machine guns lol thanks for the tips
-
3 RepliesAny class can kill him quite easily in 2 swords before ogres, they just require skill while the hunter is almost cheesing lol. Not taking a stab at you just saying I'm not all that impressed, this video is designed for the amateurs who struggle on crota and it is a great video for them.
-
Since you are making a video for noobs you should do it in a way any class can do it.
-
Well done man!
-
OMG, your a saint bro! Thank you! I'll try this method next time!
-
This is gonna help me soooooo much, thanks for the upload!
-
hats off to you sir. going invisible in between like that., total boss. i never thought of that before
-
9 RepliesI don't see why people think it's better down the middle. I think left stairs is much more effective
-
2 RepliesNot sure if you mentioned it in the annotations. But could you provide the load out of your nose dancer perks? That would be awesome! Thanks

Edited by IxAMxLEGENDARY: 1/15/2015 12:59:09 PMAs someone who did and thought of this strategy and began doing it week one of CE release, I should have made a video lol. I'm actually quite shocked how much people there were who seriously did not think of doing this on their own. I mean all your skills are there with descriptions, I'm astounded that many never did this. I assumed it was the norm.

Good! Clan sounds lame anyway..
