...then why does nobody ever want to do it?
My challenge mode run on Tuesday I was playing on my Titan and ready to go on Ogre killing duty for obvious reasons. Everybody started claiming assignments and the Fireteam leader asked who was going to run relic. Silence followed. I ended up volunteering because I don't mind running on my Titan, but I thought I would have better served the group on Ogres.
Second run yesterday on my Hunter I volunteered to run a plate because I knew I could snipe my knight easily and smoke bomb myself on the way back to mid if necessary to stay alive. Fireteam leader asked who was running relic. Silence followed again. This time the group had claimed their assignments and the leader told the one guy who didn't speak up that he was runner. The guy almost shit his pants, so once again I volunteer to run relic. Not a fan of doing it on my Hunter but I ran it anyway.
It really is an easy job compared to the chaos going on down on the ground, but why does nobody want to run it? Shouldn't people be arguing over who's going to run it, especially on challenge mode where you actually have to kill everything and get back to mid without dying?
EDIT: I see some folks mentioning that people are especially afraid to run it on no-knight on account of the ogres focusing on the runner. My answer to that is to take the extra time and run to the daughters pillar to pick up blessing and have a hunter smoke bomb you for invisibility before you head down into the chaos. The vessel will be a little closer and you still have time to grab the brand and get back up while Oryx slams. Even if your team has to start staggering before you get there it's still safer than having a relic runner exposed all by himself while everybody is safe in the bubbles up top.

Running is easy. I put my brain on auto pilot and just go through the motions
-
1 RespuestaI think hunters (imo) is the easiest and fastest to run relic. I really hate warlock and titans jump they're to slow.
-
1 RespuestaI run if my team needs it, I love running. It's the most fun job in my opinion, as long as I'm not doing it on my warlock, glide is horrendously unreliable...
-
I think is because of the person who is running dudes then they stuffed it up for every single person so there is a lot of pressure but once I got it down it's easy.
-
Center titan is the easiest job.
-
I love to do relic and brand running during raids, the best raids I had were doing this. First week of crota's end raid no one wanted to step up to the plate, I did, 2 hours and a bottle of Captain later it's melded in my brain. people don't like the pressure is all, I love the attention from doing it flawlessly while no one notices.
-
When youve run relic on sherpa groups it gets old
-
I love running relic. Friends will kick people and message me to join just to run relic for them haha I love it!
-
Because it is a role that carries a lot of pressure. It's easy to do, but also very easy to mess up.
-
I always volunteer for that lol
-
Editado por Benzene21: 12/17/2015 11:57:13 PMBecause it is the most important role in the fight and that's too much pressure. People don't like pressure. They get scared but if they do it one time with success and believe in themselves they will find out it's not so bad.
-
Simple, no mic. I get jobs according lol but my first oryx run I was relic runner. It was hard on My Hunter lol
-
My first time running relic I knew before how to do it from daughters but never completed it relic rubbing on my hunter Tuesday I completed it being relic I was like omg
-
I suppose a lot of people just don't like the responsibility of having your whole team relying on you.
-
BECAUSE ITS BORING!!!!
-
Because if you die people assume you're really bad
-
1 RespuestaThey're all equally the same imo
-
I don't know why but I just despise doing that part of the raid. I know it seems like a cake walk but I just do not like it. Also I cannot win a sparrow race...I don't know what I'm doing wrong :-(
-
Is def the easiest job in the raid. Everyone in my group fights over it lol. It is harder on no knight strat but still easy.
-
Same reason people don't like relic running. Too much pressure for most people, when its easy as -blam!-. Our relic runner dies in vault, and while everybody else is freaking out, I go and pick that bad boy up.

Editado por NYDIBS: 12/17/2015 11:29:09 PMthe people on the forums have different opinions than randoms you might play with on the forums you will find lots of people who have run sword, relic on VoG, relic on kings fall it's really not hard, but some people don't like being responsible for an important role like that while it's easy, it's not as safe as sitting on a plate or dps-ing ogres also, maybe if everybody didn't act like it's the end of world, more people would be willing to fail
-
People don't like it because while it is easy it is also stressful for some people because everything hinges on you doing your job.
-
Because it's so -blam!-ing boring and I like to shoot things [i]pew pew[/i]

Editado por AWobblyJelly: 12/17/2015 11:04:28 PMEvery job is easy, I run and run and run relic since normal mode, nothing is really that difficult if you have a bit of knowledge of all the mechanics and a little bit of skills Also run the aura for warpriest and gaze, people say I do the dirty work (all the jobs people doesn't want to do)
-
Plates are easiest. Just look and jump up. Running is easy too. Just jump and hope the titans pull attention from the ogres. Two up top, even easier. Just weaken and bob in and out of the bubble. Oryx isn't hard.[spoiler]im hard tho[/spoiler]
-
Exact opposite for me. People don't want to be on plates probably cause of fear of dying or not being able to kill their knight. Every pick up group I went in this week had multiple people volunteering for runner.
