I'm curious to see if there are a significant number of players who have never attempted a raid before, despite being the necessary level.
So... if you've hit level 29 or above, comment here with your current level, when you started playing, and why you haven't tried raiding (yet?) :3
Edit: There are a bunch of awesome people who have commented in this thread that they're willing to give unseasoned raiders a hand. If you're considering giving raids a try, why not start by reaching out to one of these players? Just please remember, the biggest requirement in learning how to raid is not your equipment, not your level... it's [b]courtesy, honesty, and an ability to listen more than you talk[/b].
Happy raiding, Guardians!

I've screwed around in both raids but never cleared one. I plan on clearing Crota this weekend with mah crew.

6 RepliesHave three level 31 characters, one of each - Hunter, Warlock, Titan. 12 or 13 exotic weapons as well. Have not done a single raid. Done a couple strikes, but that's about it. Haven't raided because I don't know anyone who plays personally, so I have nobody to raid with, and don't feel polite intruding on others to drag my virgin ass along... ;)

4 RepliesI'm a little over 30. The only raid I've done was Crota's but it was a carry, so I didn't feel any sense of accomplishment there. I'd like to do VoG soon.
-
14 RepliesThere is literally no reason to do the raids You can be a 31 in the game and never do the raids ever.

1 ReplyI've never raided because everyone I know is on the Xbox and I'm on ps4

I raid very little.

Level 29 non-raider...about to be a 30 tonight. Helm of Saint and all legendary gear.

Friend base not big enough. Have only just started using lfg groups for nightfalls. Haven't really got time. Can't see the point of raid set armour. Not much better than what I've got and don't need to rerun crota to farm for shards or what ever they are just to be half a level higher than I am now!!

4 RepliesEdited by NyneWunWun: 3/11/2015 4:41:44 PMLevel 31 (Iron Banner ftw), started playing around October I think - can't remember for sure. 100% raid n00b, never even sniffed the VoG and I don't have the DLC. Main reason I never really got into raids was the time commitment. Then I started in on the Crucible and loved it. Definitely not a seasoned killer, but I've put in a decent amount of time and had a few good games. Definitely plan to at some point in time but I became a dad a little less than a week ago, so a lot of my time has been spent off-console haha. Edit: Saeglopur is an awesome band, btw.

2 RepliesEdited by Shadow Daji: 3/11/2015 4:47:03 PMShouldn't you be asking are there any level 31 non raiders? Level 29 is the old level cap for non raiders. *Edited for spelling.

Up to 24 raid completions now, almost all start to finish, but I didn't start until I had 3 characters at 31. I wanted to make sure I knew the mechanics and did not screw up someone else's time. Now have a 32 and close on a 2nd one. VoG Hard is one of my favorite pieces of content in the game. Crota is a little different experience, but can be a blast. I get why people don't raid, but I highly encourage people to get involved. Did VoG Hard and Crota Normal last night in just under 2 hours. It was fantastic.
-
2 RepliesI'm level 31 and have done VOG twice I think and not tried Crota. Generally I don't have the time to do a full raid as in find a group who aren't idiots and then spend at least an hour playing. I'm getting a bit bored though so might give it a go. An elemental primary would be handy too.

1 ReplyWatch YouTube tutorials. It really helped me out to try and understand how the raid works. You're really missing out on something fun if you don't even try to learn it.

1 ReplyI am on PS4. I am usually on around 9 pm cst until whenever really. I can help anyone out with raids, nightfalls, weekly etc. Just add me and when you see me on just jump into my chat party.

2 RepliesThings like this sadden me. VoG is probably the best piece of content in the game.
-
Ya I love this game 3 mixed characters all level30 but I've never raided ... I'm an old fart (55) no friends on xbox1 so assembling a gang of 6 just eludes me. Watched the YouTube of vog and it looks wild - and like many I don't wanna be the noob that can't jump whatever chasm or doesn't have the gjallerhorn....

2 RepliesMy friend and I regularly take noobs and new raiders through VoG and Crota normal. Please add me and let us know if you guys need a walkthrough. We spent the early part of our Destiny play time being shunned and kicked out of groups because we had never done them before. The feeling was terrible and impossible to comprehend. With more people that understand the mechanics of a raid, the more people available to play, easy concept in our minds. We're patient and can explain everything. What we will not do though, is take your lower level characters through that you want to level up quickly. We're not offering to do the work for you. Xbox One BTW.

6 finishes, zero from the beginning to end, always just to help friends. I have 3 - 31's.

I was 31 before I started raiding, I've done VoG norm once and most of Crota norm

1 Reply30/31 Titan 31 Warlock ps4: Jakem998 Have finished both VoG and CE normal once. Can not find any group of people to raid with on a consistent basis. I am usually on around 8 or 9 CST but will be 10 or 11 CST as soon as my busy season starts up next month. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was level 30 before my first VoG run. I had all Vanguard gear and The Lucky Raspberry
