That's more than enough. We need times. I have three 30's, and I know there are some others with more than one so some of us can go more than once to accomodate everyone's needs with fresh runs. Or we could split it up and take a 29 or two.

Okay, this week I can do Tuesday from 6:00 to 11:00, or Friday/Saturday/Sunday whenever. I have two L30 Hunters ready to rock.

Ugh, it's probably the one in the middle top that I dance with all night during the oracles part.

Tonight is the only night I have open. Tuesday from 6:30 on i'm doing Raids. Wednesday through Sunday, i'm dealing with relatives.

I may have to do like last Christmas when the majority would not leave the house. I let each of the kids put a log in the fire place. Between that and me turning the heater up, I got most of them to leave.

I may play anyway. I definitely don't mind ignoring them.

@jsteinhauer are you still looking for a 6th for hard raid tonight and what time?

Okay, I have committed to the normal raid, I think at 7:30EST, on Tuesday. Should only take until 8:30, and I could go then. If the team is all 30, it should only take an hour, so you'd be good to go by 10. If the rest of the 30's are interested?

It does not do you any good, but I'd also consider a late Tuesday start, say 11 eastern, if anyone else is interested? I could possibly, and that's a true maybe, find another one or two level 30's to join. I'd check with them in advance. Maybe Dodger Blue is interested, too.

Is anyone else interested in Wednesday night or Thursday? I work Wednesday and Friday, but we're staying home and having no visitors Thursday.

Wednesday 8cst or later

I don't know what's up with that. I'll do one, if someone wants, but I have this hard Atheon checkpoint that some are interested in, so I don't thing there are six for a fresh raid, and I don't know that there is a team that could finish off Atheon quickly, either. I'll see what time I get on tonight and who is around, I guess.

I will make time for raids, regardless of the houseful of family. I'd offer to run through hard, assuming we have at least 4 30's. Your call. I just don't want to be the reason the raid takes 2-3 hours.

Ok, I thought you were going to do a fresh run. No biggie if you aren't doing it tonight.

Since you guys are experienced with it, just let me know if we go through with it or not, I would also hate to hold up everything because I am not level 30, even though I really really want to get to level 30 by getting the helm, or other drops only gotten on hard.

Catch 22, play hard raid to get to level 30, but be a detriment because you aren't.

Did you decide on a time for Atheon?

I could maybe do Tues or Wed night. Not sure about Thurs, but possibly. I got the last piece of Raid gear that I needed last night. So from here on out it's just a matter of getting some weapons I don't have yet, like Vex Mythoclast.

Exotic helm

[Bizdady]

I'll be off rest of the week so ill be down to raid all day every day!!

[My_Two_Cents]

Slow week in the office, so I've been surfing more than usual today. I found this Gatekeeper strategy I thought I would share, as that's the one part we seem to struggle on at times. As I've never gone into the portals at this stage, I can't say this is common knowledge or not, but thought it might be helpful. Hell, I'll take a stab at the portals tomorrow night if y'all don't mind wiping a few times until I "get it".

Inside:
You get 2 guys who know very well how fast they can kill a gatekeeper and how to navigate one of the portals. You send one in Venus, he rushes to the back without shooting anything. One or 2 go to mars, get gatekeeper low, preferably low enough he teleports to back. Then mars person gets close to gatekeeper (ie close to where relic spawns) and signals venus person, while helper goes out to help with clearing adds. Venus person starts killing gatekeeper as quickly as possible (ideally lvl 30, ghorn or 6 shots of ice breaker/supremacy or other). Synchronize kills this way, Needs to be within like 2-3 secs of each other. Should be noted Venus is in more danger if blinded than Mars usually cause of hobgoblins.

Outside:
1 person on each plate. 2 people free roam (1 until Mars helper comes back out). Only one praetorian ever spawns at a time. The free roamers should go wherever it spawns. A trick to force praetorian to spawn to the left side first is to delay opening right portal by about 4 seconds (ie stand on right plate 4 secs after people stand on left plate).

With savvy people and 2 lvl 30s, you can get both relics within 2-3 praetorians. No hobgoblins, no praetorian swarm, no sending someone to defend conflux alone.
