I HAVE BEEN RAIDING SINCE 9 IN THE MORNING.

MORE THAN SIX TEAMS, NINE HOURS LATER ON ORYX, AND I AM DONE. #Recruitment and this forum couldn't kill an ogre if they had a gun pointed to their head. They couldn't get a critical even WITH a night stalker shot. Having a team full of Titans and STILL make someone complain about not being SAFE in a BUBBLE and changing EVERYTHING. I can't wrap my head around this. Honestly. I've been going at the challenge for a few days, changing roles without fail, and yet it's always either a glitch or, in most cases, someone can't handle their own task even with the aid of more than three players. If you REALLY were experienced, you'd take down your own ogres and Knights by yourself and STILL have enough time to help others. STAGGER THEM. Don't say they're "teleporting" if you aren't even doing a dang thing to stop them!!! Come ON. And bombs: GET THEM!!! Make sure you're in the RINGS, that's what it MEANS. If I have to stay in the middle and watch as you mess up, call it out, and still not be able to get all the bombs, MORE THAN ONCE, then something inside your cranium is either turned off or rotting. AND PEOPLE. DONT HOP ON TO PLAY IF YOU JUST WENT THROUGH A BREAK UP! Seriously! Why have the majority of my teams consist either of moaning zombies or guys with screaming kids PRACTICALLY ON THEIR LAP. My ears are still ringing, and I don't think they'll stop anytime soon. Is it my fault for playing so long? Sure. I mean, it's not like I've been wanting to play SOMETHING after finishing my finals and ultimately the college semester. And of course, people have lives. Just...in a game of communication and being able to kill an enemy, it's important to COMMUNICATE AND KILL ENEMIES. Take care of your business before you play, read the requirements of my post, then join...for Gods sake. No more. I am passive aggressive, but the sheer ineptness that I've witnessed just switched off that part of me. No more. From now on, I'll have specific requirements, including age, volume of voice + your surroundings, and how much time I'll give. I know now from experience that I can't post a simple "Let's get it done, be 310+". I understand now. Good day. Goooood day. Edit: Before I turn in for the day, I just want to say that this thread was made purely out of the frustration I had built up over time due to the challenge mode. I assure you that I am in fact a team player, and never once have I vocally gotten on someone's case prior to this, nor have I left a fireteam without at least saying thank you or take care. That's all. And thank you to those who have offered their assistance; not sure if I'm going to attempt it tomorrow, but we'll see. My brain is still fried. Update: at 4 ct I'll be running it again with a team from the100.io for about 45 mins, then I'll move on to those here that offered both their teams and aid. And for all this time I've been on the forums (maybe four years?) I have never gotten so many replies. Whoa.

    You're just getting terrible fireteams. My first go took about 3 hours, wished I just left and I probably would've been done with it faster but since it was my first time I bared through it. I cycled through 3 fireteams and following that 4th fireteam, we were able to get it first try for my secondary character. On my 3rd and final go, I cycled through 2 fireteams and that 3rd one we were able to get it first try for my third character. I gave each fireteams 5 wipes before I leave since they are a bunch of randos. I could care less about what they thought about me because I play for myself, not people I play with for one raid and never play with again. I didn't always be so bitter about helping, but spending so much time for something I could be done with for my other characters made more sense to do and outweighed frying my brain for people who doesn't appreciate it.

  • Everyone's already did the challenge. The only ones on lfg right now are the ones who still couldn't beat it, probably for a reason

    Few things I've noticed about LFG. 1) Try to do your raids, if possible, as quick as you can after reset. Majority of the good players on LFG do them ASAP after the reset. If you wait till the end of the week it seems like there is more rubbish around. 2) Make your requirements if your making the team 315+. If your looking for group make sure you post a comment like this. This is actually what I do. "your light level, class, LFG 315+ for quick run, Any strat on Oryx is fine. Adult. Mic. Totems cp is fine." Stating that you want a quick run to get it done fast and mentioning that you don't care about shards tells other good groups your serious about raiding and not gonna waste their time. And you will be more prone to getting invite than the guy who just posts. "318 warlock, exp, maxed guns". If your good, and know what your doing you can kill Oryx with any strat. This tells people you know what your doing and can take anything thrown at you. Again more prone to getting an invite to a solid group. Also keep in mind when you do get into these groups the people tend to be more of the serious type. So if you lied in your comment they are usually more likely to be strict/aholes/prone to kicking you.

      • The worst is the people that ditch after two wipes. I'm sorry, have you never raided before? Wiping is half of everything. Shit just happens.

        • Sorry man. I hope you get it. I joined a friend who had joined an lfg group and needed help the other day. That team had been going for a looooong time. They even got it done and forgot to get the bombs....lol. And they threatened to kick me! I left as I had already done it like 5 times that day and didn't give a single crap. Got my team. Did it first run. ;)

            Someone needs to learn how to tell time. It's clearly only 12 now, so 9 hours is impossible!

                • Recruitment is hit n miss. You should be able to know within a couple wipes whether or not the team can complete the task. If you don't like what you see, move on and find a new group. Using recruitment I found it rather trivial to finish all challenges on all characters.

                • Sorry ya had such a bad experience. Sad to say tho as others have said it's best to use lfg early in the week. From Thursday onward it usually turns into a very toxic/useless place. I usually run with a raid team(tht I found a while back off lfg) but when they're not on I turn to lfg. It's hit or miss but you can't spend too much time if the team keeps failing without progress. As a general rule, everything up to oryx is easy and a few wipes are ok. Once at oryx don't spend more than ~45mins with a team unless y'all are actually making progress. Also, easy way out. 4 warlocks 2 titans. Lololol

                • You need consistent raiding friends, it makes a difference. Random lfg sites = fail, I've nothing good to say about random groups.

                • My best advice to you is to try and get it done in the first couple days. Obviously that can only happen if you have the time. Best of luck getting it done before reset.

                • Anyone else still want to do it? I'd like to do it sometime today, hopefully for more than one character but if I only do one that is good too. On ps4

                • I think the ogres teleporting is just a go-to excuse for people who can't stagger them. Sometimes due to lag, I've definitely seen them teleport but not nearly as often as some claim. A saw a post from a dude who believed they are "supposed to teleport" because they are "taken", even thought they clearly aren't taken.

                  • All the problem was for me was LFG was crowded with incompetent squeakers who didn't ever even beat hard mode so they had no idea what the knights were. I left, a friend of mine had a team, and we went through it flawlessly on one run on all 3 characters,
