Edit 4: Thanks to some nice folks who showed me the ropes, I've completed everything.
Edit 3: So yeah, this was a case of misguided or over-hyped expectations. It initially sounded like we were getting some fan appreciation trinket of an emblem but it was more of "Do everything in the game" / "Test your might!" sort of deal.
The player appreciation package is arriving when you buy The Taken King when you play it and have hit level 30 or bought the 2 previous DLCs.
Although this doesn't change the fact that I still suck at the hard mode stuff on my own. :P
Some nice people have offered help. Glad to see not everyone here on Bnet is rude.
Have a nice day, everyone!

I'm super disappointed in this. My team struggles with the 32 and 34 Prison of Elders at times. How the hell are we supposed to beat Crota, Atheon AND Skolas on hard mode in just 2 months?!
On top of that, it's rare that we can even all game together at the same time. Some of us work weekdays and the rest are busy on the weekends half the time.
We just beat the Vault of Glass for the first time on regular just last month.
This should just have been an emblem given to people who have played since the beginning or during the initial first year.
I'm severely disappointed in Bungie right now. :(
Edit: I'm on Xbox One
Edit 2: So yeah, I'm glad I'm still getting the year 1 appreciation package with The Taken King, but that package should have been what was given out today, not with the DLC. If the Moments of Triumph was available ALONGSIDE the year 1 package with the emblem, shader and emotes, I wouldn't have been disappointed.
Truth be told, the idea of the Moments of Triumph emblem sounds sweet! I know I probably won't get it because I'm not a veteran raider, and not particularly good at the tough challenges. I think a lot of people were just expecting a year 1 appreciation reward today.
-
I'm personally disappointed that there are those out there who managed to beat skolas with burns active that will get the reward but I don't have that chance now, I was unable to play the house of wolves till after it was patched in not to have burns on skolas. Seems there are players who had an easier run than me at it, it's the last thing I need to de besides getting the gold chests.
-
so you're happy with the fact that all you get is an emblem for being loyal for a year? an emblem? nothing else, just an emblem.... I'm not!
-
Crota and atheon aren't very hard, but skolas is.
-
I can't figure out how to find the moments of triumph. Please enlighten me. Probably simple but I'm tired as heck.
-
If i can solo crota on normal and hard im pretty sure you can do it with a team. Vault of glass is really easy and skolas
-
I'm a little disappointed in the requirements, but only because they're simpler than what I imagined they'd be. Seems pretty simple to me. I just have to find the rest of the gold chests. (I don't know if hard PoE means specifically 35 or 32,34 or 35. If its specifically 35 then I sort of understand)
-
Damn. No offense either you're bad at this game or the your group is bad. Because the requirements really aren't that daunting.
-
Hey I can help you guys through both raids. Later today (starting probably 3 or 4 eastern U.S.) would work. I'm happy to help each of you at different times if you're not all available at the same time. Raids are difficult to get into without having someone slowly walk you through them. A lot of people allow new raiders to die and watch, and that's just not the same as actually doing it. I'll add you, and you can just message me when you want to do it.
-
dissapointed in bungie? you should be disappointed in yourself
-
So the emblem IS only given to people with all those triumphs done
-
Don't give up. Find a good clan. Try to play a little more if your real life permits. It's easy. Really! And even if you don't get that emblem. Let's face it. It's an emblem. You're not giong to have more fun with that emblem equipped. https://www.the100.io/ https://www.bungie.net/en/Clans/Popular
-
You had a year to beat atheon and crota on hard. Not 2 months.
-
Level 34 and has no idea how to beat hard Atheon and Crota in 2 months. I beat him with a shitty team the week hard Crota came out, you just aren't trying.
-
Edited by TheBateman87: 7/7/2015 11:22:29 PMyou have a lvl 34 titan - find a team of experienced raiders who will run it with you and theyll help you piss all over atheon and crota on hard mode - skolas is a challenge however - but its all about dedication - you cant just simply jump into lvl 35 POE and expect to win without aquiring decent guns from other raids or modes and not earning your etheric lights edit - ive checked your guardians - you have matador, partycrasher AND btrd and some decent primary guns - earn your etheric lights and level those bastards up and the harder raids will be a breeze if not already
-
Wow in 2 months? That's 7 hours for me
-
Will one of you tell me where I can see my moments of triumph?
-
Dude check my clan I'm sure we can get you through the raids and poe
-
If you want help with Atheon, message us my team runs it regularly because one of our guys doesn't have Vex but never gets it :/
-
Then guess you're not a true vet
-
Only need skolas and 5 chests. Who wants to do skolas later?
-
Gr8 B8 M8 [spoiler]a 34 and 2 32s? Plus the forums?[/spoiler]
-
I did Crota Hard and Atheon Hard tonight. Skolas will be tomorrow, that's 2 days. It's really easy, if you know what you're doing.
-
2 lvl 32s and a 34 and you say you can't complete a lvl 30 raid that was easy with 300 weapons, let alone 365...? Dude... Stop crying and get good!
-
You're kidding right?
-
It can be done easy, I work almost 60 hours every week and I still manage to run: VoG Hard atleast twice a week. 32,34,and 35 PoE. atleast once each Nightfall 3 times Weekly 3 times Crota Hard atleast 3 times a week (I need Black Hammer) Trials(Even though I suck) some crucible before work each day(Iron Banner last week) A couple of Queen's Wrath bounties. and still squeeze in sleep each day. I'm not the best player either a have 2 friends that raid and Nightfall with me. and another that plays Trials only so it varies on what I do each day with 1-2 hours playtime. If you're on Xbox One add me(GT Above) I usually play from 7-10 am EST and I play on weekends.
-
Damn if you're struggling with the raids, be glad that flawless trials isn't a requirement. Add me if youre on PS4, I'll do Crota or vog with you guys whenever. (I don't do them weekly anymore). PSN chrowski
