  • The mechanics are pretty simple, shouldn't be too bad so long as the person teaching isn't the "just stand around while I try to do everything" guy.

    It should be pretty easy for new players as long as the vets know what they're doing. For the first timers, opening the vault and is just a matter of not letting the minotaurs touch the plate. For Confluxes, it's pretty much kill everything that moves before they get to the confluxes, and don't step in the Vex goop. Oracles is more or less just counting your numbers. If the vets are good then they could probably handle the oracles themselves while the new players play ad clear, but if the new plyers need to babysit an oracle then they just need to destroy it in the right order as they appear. You also don't immediately wipe if you mess up too, provided you all cleanse in time, so it's fine if the new guys make a few mistakes. Templar's mechanics can probably be handled by the vets without much difficulty. Just be ready to DPS him when his shields go down and make sure to free whoever gets stuck (especially if it's the relic user). For Gorgons, just follow the leader and don't use your jump abilities. This will probably be the one encounter where anyone and everyone still messes up semi-frequently, so don't feel bad if you guys wipe a few (or many) times here. For Gatekeepers, you can have the new guys babysit the plates and take out everything that moves. At least one of the vets will be outside the gates at any given time too so they can help the new guys if needed. Once the confluxes appears outside the gates then the rest of the encounter plays out like the first. The only challenging part with Atheon is knowing the oracle callouts. With only 2 new players though, you're guaranteed to have at least one vet with you at all times to assist you. If the new guys get teleported into the portals, they should be the ones to pick up the relic while the others shoot the oracles. once you get to the DPS phase, it's just a matter of knowing who's going to be detained and having them gtfo from the others in time.

  • Very doable if the 4 vets know the raid well.

  • Should be pretty easy. VoG isn't a hard raid and is a great intro for newbies. Be prepared for everything to take a few runs though, people need time to learn.

  • Pretty easy. If it really comes to it you can stick the two new folks on ads for pretty much every encounter

  • If you have someone willing to show you and be patient while you figure it out, its not bad. Other option is get a chill group together and watch guides and go in and try it. Dont expect to complete it first time, and just have fun.

  • It’s not to hard. Some encounters could take 5 runs before you guys get into the groove. Also make sure you guys are using linears with precision frame for dps. [spoiler]nibbles crayon[/spoiler]
