I tried joining VoG in D1 I was always kicked for being 1 under light or not having a specific emblem or weapon they wanted but their friends didn't have. Every lfg I put together wouldn't be patient enough to learn to game with each other. I was gatekept. For this VoG I plan to run 2-3 a week or more. I have an amazing clan and raid teams lined up. The actual encounters aren't hard themselves. I am happy I see D1 vets struggling rn. They're the same people who gatekept me. I can't wait to sherpa people and on a different note get the seal. One thing is for sure, you are at a severe disadvantage in destiny without a clan. Lfg won't cut it for consistency.
