If you want just let me know, I have the checkpoint and it'll me a try or two to get you the kill

OK back to leveling my 2 mythocasts and 4 helms.

You can do it right now? Lol.

It is in a way, especially after he's been killing you again and again. I've still not seen the pushing off the ledge thing yet on youtube. And my first and only experience with the raid was kind of a mess, from tech problems and my clumsiness.

Mavrick was looking for an Aetheon cheese save. Hopefully you still have it.

As for 'cheating' the game. No, I don't think there's been a 'cheat' yet but there have been 'exploits' but considering how crap the game has been and continues to be with abusing its players; I see it as fair game finding such ways to beat bosses.

There's literally no way players should feel happy about being abused by a game and consider it an 'accomplishment'. Its akin to being a victim of sexual assault and then being told to be'proud' somebody took interest

(I'm not trying to trvialise sexual assault etc. by the way)

I just find the L337 aguements are a bunch of bullcrap. It doesn't make a game enjoyable. Who the hell has 20+ hours to do one damn thing that SCREWS YOU!! If I spend 5 hours just on one part, GIMME A GODDAMN GARANTEED EXOTIC FOR EACH PART!!! otherwise GTFO!

There is 'entitled gamers' and then there's gamers who get screwed at every turn. Bungie are like the sulky kids atm penalising people for having found ways to make life easier in a completely LEGITIMATE manner because it doesn't make the game as artificially hard as they want to piss people off with.

I had a pretty good raid night yesterday. We completed the raid twice, once with my warlock and the other with my hunter. Each total run took us about an hour. Notable loot were:

The Last Word
Praedyth's Revenge
Corrective Measures
Prime Zealot Gauntlets (hunter)
12 ascendant energy
9 ascendant shards

It's a low probability random reinforcement model that keeps you coming back for more, like a slot machine.

At least it pushed me over 150 marks and was able to finally buy the Vanguard Shadow Price, my first Legendary auto which I will use for Crucible. Ill still use my VOC for regular missions.

It was easier than that. Did it again with part of the raid clan. Crazy easy.

Normal raid #9. About 1:15 total time, no cheese. Finally got boots for the Warlock. Just need gauntlets or a hard runthrough. But no more warlock runs this week, unless we do it on hard. Tried a few times to stop the Templar, but gave up. He teleported once.

So my question for those who do it, how do you keep an Atheon checkpoint and exploit it repeatedly? I am tempted to get in on that, but I'm a little afraid of backlash from the raid clan. I could just do it in secret, I guess.

Hit me up Casey if you're still looking for people to beat the last part. I'm on usual time. Still looking for my first Raid gear.

I'd be up for it also, though am an Atheon nube. I should be on most of the afternoon/evening today if you need someone. MaCruz can guide me...

Casey probably has more expereince than me now

Formerly known as the Big 3, it was me, JJ, and Casey playing Daily/Weekly/Strikes when the game first came out during our lower levels.
