There will be three shielded knights in the pit with you. You must kill the two with the shields that don't match the sword you are trying to earn. Then you must get the other knight's health and Darkblade's health down to a sliver, and then kill the knight and Darkblade in that order and within 30 seconds of each other.

It was very satisfying when I got my solar sword last week. Arc is this week.

Thanks for the info. I knew it seemed to easy.


I know a few of us are waiting on Armsday for the sword. Hopefully I can get a team together tomorrow night and we can all get our blades with a few runs. I am getting my Arc as well, one more going for Arc and we have a full team.

I'm waiting for armsday for my sword as well

btw, the nightfall this week is Shield Brothers. which is great, nice quick strike. no burn, no juggler. With 3 it should be a breeze.

Definitely need a team, and preferably a team all going for the same element sword. If people have different elements, then you will just need to get all appropriate knights down to a sliver before killing everyone at the end (swords work best). Timing would be more difficult, and you'll also now have to deal with two knights spamming boom-shots all over the place. And I swear those boom-shots have tracking on them! Once a knight locks onto you, he will not let up until your ass is either dead or clear across the other side of the pit!

I have the arc sword coming tomorrow as well. I'll be the third if you guys want to do it together.

This, there were times where getting away were impossible, lol.

I'm going to need the void and arc tomorrow....

Ah dang! Same here, the team I attempted with just wasn't doing enough damage when we were trying to stagger him (some of them were in the low 290s and didn't have great weapons either). Hopefully we'll all tackle him this week!

[Blu-Benny]

Sure hope they don't have the option to buy exotics in the future.

What would be the point?? Everyone would be the same then.

Half the "fun" of the game is all the *****ing and moaning when you get squat for drops at the end of a nightfall or raid.

Ric likes to use golden gun with nighthawk, it's almost enough on its own.

I didn't even think of trying that last night

It is...I think. When I know we have a GG/Nighthawk taking a shot, I'm shooting adds so I don't get tore-up heading to my bomb.

No health regen and no radar so make sure you take it slow.

So on my "night" off I farmed calcium for my 3rd malice Im at 44/45 now... stupid argonarch rune not charging.

On the bright side I farmed them all up without the guide now lol

Ya I have issues

Celestial Nighthawk'd Golden Gun makes staggering simple.

[spectre08]

that reminds me, I need to grab nighthawk out of the armory and start adding exp.

i'm not getting crap for 290+ helmet drops though, so i've had a heck of a time actually getting the light up on them.

I'm glad you have 3 now. I was feeling like a try-hard when I got mine before anyone else here (I think) and now the natural order of things has been restored.

I dont even have one legendary sword, I think you have all 3 too.

The solar system is at peace.

Tomorrow is the day everyone has 3 exotic swords.

I'll be ready to run strike 3x tomorrow

[Trailbreaker77]

Anyone want to help me later tonight get the three ghost in the daily? Seems like some are speculation this could be the first part of a big quest. I'm not really familiar with VOG and suck at jumping puzzles.

Thanks

If you see me on and haven't done it yet, hit me up. Wouldn't mind doing a nightfall either. Can't screw me over every week... err.. well

Not me! I'm still at 2/10 and 25% on my Arc sword. And even that took 90 minutes and made me shut the game off. Hopefully finishing that off doesnt make me off myself.

But I need to. I'm currently 303 at best. Just gotta raid more. Hopefully I can knock 2 out tonight.
