Pho Goth, safe spot summoning pits strike.

EDIT3* Added a video of where the 2nd guy is suppose to stand, the 1st guy must be in front of him, half way through the doorway crouched,read everything to understand how to do this safespot correctly without any mistakes and errors or confusion. EDIT2* To clear up some confusion, some people think i'm explaining a well known method where you lure pho, run back and wait until the shrieker and wizards and stuff despawn, that method is well known and i see why people would get confused because this one i explain is similar, but read what i'm writing, i said there should be 0 spawns of any extra wizards and knights due to the shrieker, the shrieker should NOT spawn at all...and pho once lured correctly and people are in the right positions will NEVER move or hit anything besides the wall. This method i explain is DIFFERENT to the ones that have to constantly move around and keep luring pho which will cause more enemies to spawn. EDIT* If your one of those people who are getting mad because i posted this method/exploit, feel free to leave a hate comment down below, it gives this post a nice bump which in return will allow more people to learn this safespot. :) So iv'e seen people struggle with this strike, so why not share my method on how i defeat pho goth 100% safespot, 0 knight spawns, 0 wizard spawns, 0 shrieker spawns. Also feel free to give this post a 'like' it'll help spread the word around to those who struggle and need a method to finish this weeks strike. I found this 100% by myself with a friend during the 2nd week of the game when pho goth was the 2nd nightfall, and as far as i know i haven't met anyone that has found this method yet. First off you can do this safespot solo, but having more people will help do more damage to finish the strike faster, second there are original knights that are already spawned and they may get in the way so i highly suggest you try and kill them first before you do this safespot. so the room where the shrieker spawns you have 2 doorways, 1 that leads to pho, 1 that leads you into the shrieker room, you want 1 person to crouch right on the right side of that doorway so pretty much your not in the room but that person who is crouching along the side of the doorway can see through a tiny crack between the wall and the door to pho. Not a video of me but should help give an idea, i can't find a video of someone who's crouching in the position i'm trying to explain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJqQjXLYuFE : NOTE THAT THIS VIDEO IS NOT THE METHOD I'M EXPLAINING.[b]THIS IS WERE THE 2ND PERSON STANDS, THE 1ST PERSON WHO HAS TO CROUCH SHOULD BE CROUCHING HALFWAY THROUGH THE DOORWAY IN FRONT OF WHERE YOU SEE THIS GUY STANDS.[/b] Now you want someone to stand behind the person who is crouching, stand where the guy is in the video. this will allow you to also have a tiny crack to shoot through at pho meaning 2 people can see him clearly and will be able to shoot at him without any hassle. The 3rd person will want to go to the doorway that leads to pho and get his attention, shoot at him a few times then run back into the other room and if done correctly, pho will move then get agro onto the person so was crouching on the doorway side and he will stand there trying to shoot out of his eye, his beam will hit no one because it will hit the wall, he won't move unless the person crouching ends up going down or moves, and for the 3rd person to shoot you will need a accurate gun like a sniper or scout and you want to crouch behind the 2nd person and move slightly until you can see a very very tiny crack, you should be able to shoot through every so often when you see pho move his arms up and down or if he's in a really good spot you will be able to just keep shooting at him. hope this helps everyone, this may sound confusing, i wish i knew how to make a video or something because i would post this it would make everything so much easier but give it a try if you can follow along with what i said and get the spots right you'll have no problem finishing this weeks strike.

  • I did this today helping a friend, Phogoth was dead and we never entered his room. After he died, we go in and my Ghost says "Well, at least it's chained up". Even though its dead already

  • what the hell... I watched the vid and that is EXACTLY what I do when I solo the strike. I discovered it by myself but that's a good spot. also expect it to be patched because this is "not the experience bungee intended for us to have" also this is why I want Xur to have the icebreaker this week lol I need a good sniper

    • I'm not trying to complain or anything. But isn't the point of these strikes to make it fun yet difficult? That's why you get a pretty decent reward from it.. don't get me wrong I have done things like this especially on the Arkon priest, thay shit was annoying. But it's supposed to be a challenge not a find the best place to hit him from where nothing will spawn and attack you. It's not really playing the game then. It's kind of making it pointless at that point... This is just my aspect of it. No hatred towards anyone who does this. I understand the struggle of nightfalls.

      • If you post things like this, it will raise attention to it and it will be patched. By posting this, you are going to get this method removed and you will have helped no one.

        • phogoth is the easy part of the strike :P We just ran up to the doorway, and shot the crap out of him. When the purple thing appears and the knights/wizards come after you, retreat to the room behind the purple thing. wait 5-10 seconds for purple thing and wiz/knights to despawn. rinse and repeat.

          What you described is basically a lesson in patience. Most players don't have that and keep dying.

                          • Stand in the doorway, when the shrieker spawns just back up 1 room and wait for it disappear. This is seriously the easiest nightfall strike...

                            • Small ledge on the back right, no one seems to be fond of. It is small but works. Just don't fall off and kill the few guys that go to the lower platform.

                              • Been doing this for ages. But people stop posting shit like this in public forums. Geez.. the sites where you read free comics are dl free games, do you annouce that shit?! lol Keep it between you and your mates. They in turn will do same, and It will pass down that way. Bungie is playing nanny, so keep quite on this.

                              • any video? lol i didn't know about this one. Cheers Andy. We normally all stay in the shirker room and take it out and try and pop him until the shirker re-spawns. Will the shrieker still spawn every few mins?

                              • Me and my mate have been doing it this way for ages. Probably very well known across the game also. [quote]So iv'e seen people struggle with this strike, so why not share my method on how i defeat pho goth 100% safespot, 0 knight spawns, 0 wizard spawns, 0 shrieker spawns.[/quote] Someone can confirm if this is true? I'm sure that if you need to aggro him (going into the Shrieker room , they do spawn, but once in the back room safely. Just disappear?

                                  We did that method but I found 2 people in the entry way as you explained and one over to the left behind some rocks works good. You keep the low levels in the door way and usually the higher leveled fella by the rocks. It took us about 5-8 minutes. I used 1 ammo pack. Also KEEP IN MIND ARC ARC ARC ARC based weapons... Got a 26 hunter I still need to complete this on. Not really looking forward to it because I seem to get Solar based weapons... which as everyone knows SUCKS for this nightfall :D
