So the other day my friends and I were doing some chest farming for runes to do the court. Once we have about 6 reciprocal runes each, we head off to the court. Another fire team of 3 is there waiting for some people. They gave us a wave and threw in a tier 3. Wondering what would happen, we all walked in. Only to be met by level 42 acolyte eyes, a taken wizard, two ogres, and a huge ass ogre. Recommended light was 300 so we couldn't do anything. Anyone else able to get to tier 3? Possible even beat it?
Edit: Apparently we might've not known what to do. As well as being under leveled myself.

Did it with two randoms
-
Done it today with four players. Me being 195, my friend being 189 and two randoms: 179 and 126 All you need to know is the strat and destroy the Wizard ASAP.
-
Just have two or three people with HMG kill the taken floating eye looking things for a buff. They let you do more damage to the ogre and you can have a max of three stacks so kill three then focus the ogre. Kill another eye thing before the buff timer goes away and it will reset. Have anybody else kill adds (there's ogres on the sides) or shoot the main ogre when possible. Once the Ogre is dead kill the wizard, who is the boss, fast or another ogre spawns. Wizard death=success

Ive beaten like five so far, first one took 7 of us, the second we did with 4 yesterday we were doing tier 1, 2 and 3's with 5
-
Yup 2-3 times, three guys at 290-295
-
I've activated several Tier 2 and also have 2 more stolen runes filled just waiting to get the tier 3 rune, but I can never get the damn thing to drop. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
-
Yeah, six of us were fighting
-
Yes with four total, easy when everyone knows what's up.
-
Ya it's easy
-
Yeah, easy peasy. Got a 300 light artifact and other goodies for it.
-
That is a high light level tier. If you aren't 290 and above, you won't be able to do anything to anyone. As far as the fight itself goes, the boss is the wizard. But she has the white shield which makes her invulnerable. Only when the giant ogre is dead will her shield drop for a short time. If you take too long to kill her, she will summon another ogre who will make her invulnerable again.
-
I beat that one easily but there were 6 people total. I noticed this little trick. You need to take out those acholyete thingy. You know the stuff that the taken version spawn. For each one destroyed you get something called the ogre rage I think. It lets you deal more damage to all ogres
-
Did it once. You have to kill the maleficent's eyes (look like acolyte's eyes) and you will get a buff that let's you do more damage to the huge ogre. When he is dead the wizard's shields go down and just dps him.
-
I did it when I was light 227. Lol I couldn't damage anything but I hid underneath and called a few things out and rezzed our shotgunner who stayed underneath to kill the ogres. The trick? Party chat with 6 clan members. Find a random who doesn't mind inviting someone then giving then leader then leaving. Worked for us, dude was chill about it. That way you get two fireteams of 3 at the court all in party chat.

Currently working on getting my first tier 3 rune. So stoked now

Edited by Xulek8283: 9/21/2015 3:32:51 PMFor that it helps just to have people there, my group did massive dps while the weaker nearby players distracted the enemy. Gave us just enough time to burn the witch at the end. Edit: we were all mid 290s when beating this also
-
Did it 4 times in a row a few days ago with 7 people! We were chain linked fire teams in the same chat! It was probably one of the most epic moments in destiny history!
-
Yup, beat it last night with all randoms. The big ogre was such a sponge....I had to switch to defender in order to beat it. It got me to rank 5 for crota's bane. I'm so glad I grinded out crota bounties in TDB.
-
Yup, did it last night 3 times in a row with randoms there. It was so much fun!!!
-
i'm still trying to do it for the quest. Every single time I get out there and someone attempts it it fails cause no one knows what they are doing it's just a cluster-blam!-. My luck of getting the t3 runes off t2 stuff sucks
-
Yep if your around 280 dont go in with 3 people
-
Two manned that shit with 2 seconds to spare Light 291 & 295
-
Edited by Wowbagger: 9/21/2015 3:30:48 PMdid two with randoms yesterday - failed both - but still dropped a 295 blue shotgun for me. But think I might have won one last week as I got a 300 artifact for a quest with Eris I think.
-
beat it last night
-
Friends and I were farming those yesterday. Just need 2~3 peeps for ogre, stacking buffs of course. Everyone else is add control. Ogre down, everyone kill the wizard.
-
Yes, I did the quest for it too it gives a 300 artifact.
