[quote]I can kill a knight. It only takes two sniper shots. But there's no point in killing them when it's easier and faster not to[/quote] Here's the thing, from what I've noticed people who say this strategy is easier cannot kill knights. They are incompetent and cannot snipe the knight easily. If you think the strategy is easier (which it isnt, it leaves too much to chance and is too finicky) you most likely struggle on normal runs for oryx.

  • Then bad luck for having fled up people in your team because I've done both strategies and haven't screwed up yet.

  • Lmao I definitely don't struggle on normal and I don't struggle with Knights. And there's no more to risk as long as your team knows what to do and you know how to jump. The reason people get killed by ogres is because when they get up top they want to stand on the edge of the platform while getting shot instead of getting in the middle out of harms way until the relic runner gets up there. We did two whole hard raids yesterday and timed them at an hour and twenty minutes both times from start to finish. The only wipe we had the whole raid was at oryx and we only wiped once at him both times. So no sir I don't struggle at all my friend

  • I guess you didn't understand what I was saying. When I say normal runs on oryx I mean the normal strategy, not the "I'm a puss who can't kill a knight" strategy, and of course on hard mode. You know, actually killing the ogres and knights.

  • Well I don't think you understand what I'm saying. It's not hard to kill a knight but when you don't have to then why would you? It's just like not killing the boomers on crota so the wizard doesn't spawn. One of the people doing it with us was his first time even doing hard and was a 308. It's so easy it's almost boring at times. If you're getting killed by ogres while trying to do it then you're doing it wrong

It is easier to kill ogres and knights and avoid the chance of an ogre booking it around a platform and killing someone, along with any other way that doing that strategy can kill people (oryx, vessel and knights on bombs). Killing the knights uses up 2 sniper shots, which you are most likely only using on knights and shade anyway. Leaving ogres alive can wipe runs.

  • As long as the ppl on the platforms don't shoot the ogres then the ogres won't shoot them. The when the person grabs the relic just jump straight up to the death singers platform. Idk how other people been trying to do it but it's a cake walk for us. And if they patch it then we'll just kill the Knights. And if they put them on a timer then we'll kill the Knights before we kill the ogres. You're not gonna convince me. You have your way and I have mine. We just happen to think differently about them but as long as we get it done it really don't matter
