Nothing more in this world pisses me off then a Christmas or later noob thinks he knows more about the VoG than me, when he doesn't. So I'm going to compile a list of rumors that only noobs (should) believe in the hopes that they learn a thing or two.
Rumors:
1) Opening the Spirit Bloom Chest ruins/worsens your chance of getting an exotic from the exotic chest
2) In Hard Mode, it is better to be a level above 30, like 31 or 32
3) You can kill all the Gorgons to get the 6th Chest
4) Running, Double Jumping, Meleeing, and Walking have no impact on the Gorgons
5) You have to do Gatekeeper one portal at a time
6) Atheon Teleports people that are the furthest back/Atheon teleports people in a not random fashion
7) Waiting for the rewards screen has a chance of getting you an exotic
Did I miss any? Which one do you hate the most? Please comment below, I'm sure I missed some.
Edit 1: Yes I know a few of these used to be true, but they aren't anymore
Edit 2: Thanks guys, we are trending with nearly 500 comments!
Edit 3: Oh right, forgot about this gem:
8) Its smart to shoot rockets at Atheon from inside the Relic Bubble

"You need to dance to duplicate the chalice of light." Someone told me this once. I told him it wasn' t true and refused to dance. he got so angry at me that he booted me.... -_-

As for number 2, I understand your thinking in that you will not put out extra damage, your defense is higher so you will take more damage, and no I'm not saying you can take 5 extra snipes or anything but it does help.
-
8 is true dumbass. You just can't hit atheon's incoming rounds or the rockets with explode as soon as you fire.
-
2 isn't a rumor, but obviously it'll help you in the matter of damage reduction.
-
21 RepliesHere's another myth, you can get the Mythoclast from VoG.
-
You can shoot rockets out of relic bubble....
-
12 RepliesThe 1st one is TRUE but it only DECREASES the chances. That does not mean it is impossible to get an exotic, but it is much less likely, i have done my own math on it, so maybe i just have bad luck, or my numbers are right.
-
4 RepliesYou actually can shoot rockets at atheon through the bubble It's not the bubble that kills you it's the people in front of you that the blast kills you off of If you don't believe me hop into the bubble next time and crouch right in front of the relic holder and shoot rockets It works
-
2 RepliesNumber 5 isn't necessarily a rumour. It's just easier to do it one portal at a time, for the guys on the outside at least if you're putting two into each portal. Well, that's how my team have done it every time, anyway.

2 Replies"must have rocket with tracking to bring down Atheon's shield"

#2 30 does the same amount of damage as a 32 But level 31 and 32 has a higher defense rating and can take a bit more damage.

9) there is a big bird after atheon, squeeker actually believed me

2 RepliesI actually waited for the reward screen on crota and i got the red death and some else got another exotic There wasnt a notification in the bottom left that i got an exotic either
-
10 RepliesOne group I was in told me that hunters invisibility make the Gorgons pay more attention to you. Lololol

4 Replies-"Dont speak or yell at the mic the gorgons can hear you" - **akward silence ** Thats the best way to spot/troll noobs out there..

7 RepliesIt's April. Pretty sure there are now newer players than xmas. And xmas ppl should be past worrying about VoG by now anyway. Except me. I've yet to run it and definitely admit I know the basics.

Edited by xCross71: 4/12/2015 5:03:50 PMI have had so many arguments over number five and one.

Edited by VenomJoe66: 4/12/2015 5:02:09 PMOmg 8 has ruined my raid
-
How about... The Dark Belows Raid is even better! But seriously... VoG was the shit, CE is a shit
-
2 RepliesOnly the person with the relic can hold down middle while the other guy goes in Venus/Mars gets the other relic. Lmao. I laughed so hard when I heard that lol
-
I've got no problem with people sharing what they believe to be true. At least they are trying to be helpful. I just run by the spirit bloom chest all the time, makes no difference to me.

4 Replies#5 isn't really a rumor in my opinion. I do it because it's easier to hold down a plate with 4-5 people than 2
