Level 34 PoE Boss SGA:

This weeks boss has some fun new mechanics that may take a moment to figure out, but if you're struggling on your own here is some help.
This Vex boss's special mechanic is that he will imprison you in bubbles similar to Atheon's. Getting out of these bubbles is very hard, but luckily, he gives you an easy way out.
Before he puts you in a bubble text will pop up saying "Qodron is searching for targets", this is when you need to find a unique goblin named Qodron's Eye. When you kill him it will give the player who dealt the killing blow a buff that will allow him to get him and his teammates out of the bubbles by shooting them.

To summarize:

• Find Qodron's Eye (Shiny special Goblin)
• When the text appears "Qodron is searching for targets", kill Qodron's Eye to gain a buff.
• When you get trapped in bubbles, player with the buff gets teammates out.
• Recommended to use shotguns for this.

I'd also recommend standing on the left side of the map, as Qodron's Eye seems to spawn there. And its easy to kill adds as well.
Bonus Strategy 1: Can confirm the Skolas method works. Titan pops a bubble at the airlock as you enter the arena. Smash boss with Gallahorns. Pop synth inside bubble. Repeat. Boss dead. No need to worry about the eye. - /u/h3llbee
Bonus Strategy 2: If you have the Ram exotic helmet as a voidwalker and a shotgun/machine gun, you can break yourself out of your own detainment bubble without the buff.
Just shoot the bubble until your health goes red, melee the shield and regain health, shoot for three seconds while the Life Steal goes down, then melee the shield again for more health. It works extraordinarily well. I used with a 300 Corrective Measure and broke myself out of my own bubble many times without the buff. This is also useful if you get put into the bubble with low health to begin with. - /u/986JCC
Bonus Strategy 3: Super Good Advice does indeed work. Best thing to do is group up on each other and make sure the person who has Super Good Advice is dedicated to being Jailbreaker.

can't believe how sh!tty the drop rate is with treasure keys from those chests!!! I have yet to get a single one!!

don't waste your keys on anything besides level 35 chest for ship/emblem/shader and for getting the cipher if you get exotic bounty. also, keep a bounty spot open when killing level 34/35 boss. you don't need more queens weapons and unless you're swimming in keys, there are much easier ways to farm the old exotic weapons (I've seen no exotics drop besides the first round).

New Wanted Locations:

So this weekly reset brings you Three newer 'Wanted Bounty's' to hunt down! (Cough cough; two new ones and one old)
I've whipped up some really easy to follow videos for you all to use which i would suggest doing; however i saw you guys wanted a text guide; so i've done my best in that department too!
Happy Hunting!

Wolf Scavengers
Patrol The Moon. The Hall of Wisdom is accessible by going straight under the monorail from the start. Go into the broken observatory on the top of the hill. Once in the Hall of Wisdom, turn left once you're at the bottom here you will see a glowing red/orange wall. This is where the three Wolf Scavengers will spawn
Queenbreaker Captain
Patrol The Earth Immediately head to your right hand side and you'll see a building with a broken wall that you can jump into. Follow the rather linear path through the building (As you do in the second campaign mission in Destiny) Where your first boss fight takes part in this game; the Queenbreaker Captain will spawn.
Ether Runner
Start The Vault Of Glass Raid
Immediately head to your right and follow the pathway.
You should now be in 'Campus 9' Stick to the path on your left hand side
You should see now see a small set of stairs; head up those and keep going forward
There will be a short patch on your left hand side which you need to follow until you see several Vex Portals When you are here there will be a very small pathway with another set of steps; head up these and take a right.
You will go around a wall and head to the left up another pair of stairs; and straight a head there is a dark corridor to go through.
You've just entered 'Endless Steppes'
You now need to jump across to the area where you fight the boss for the mission 'Eye Of a Gatelord' and jump over the wall in that area.
Straight a head from there you'll see several fallen and a servitor; the servitor is your target.
Please note you cannot start the Eye of a gatelord mission and still kill these targets; they will only spawn in the VoG raid; and Patrol!

So it doesn't pay to use it on level 32???

Can you get etheric light from those smaller chests at the end??

I'd like a shot at the chest piece from the house of judgement.

I've got a group for prison of elders. I wouldn't mind running vault/crota at some point...

no. you will just get crap queens weapons and maybe an old exotic out of all chests (besides the 35 with the cosmetics). no light in any chests.

Hopefully we can get through PoE quick tonight and have time for some other things.

So the only real payoff for doing level 32 is the armor core to help build up your level so you can take on 34 and 35 right??

So light is random from Nightfalls and what else? I really don't want to do Osiris.

Pretty much it seems. The 4-arm vendor apparently has a chest piece now (last week was gloves).

[silversnake]

Was hoping for boots instead of a chest piece since I got a chest piece with TOO. Looks like I'll ascend some boots or helmet to be 34.

[Scottie]

So...is Variks only going to sell Strength armor or what?

Cool, hopefully you can do it earlier next time so I can join.
Thanks for helping with the 32 POE.

34/35 prison guarantee an etheric light.

judgment rank, armor core. can get key from side chests. 32 is easy and worthwhile to do. even if you don't need the armor varriks has, you can combine it with the weapon core from 34 to possibly get a different armor piece with different stats or most likely one of his weapons. got a machine gun and scout rifle from my two judgment chances last week. pickles got some shoes.

I kinda miss doing Crota NM/HM but it's hard to find groups wanting to do fresh runs due to PoE/ToO.

Still no treasure keys from the chests last two days. Want to have one and save it for Lvl35.

[CasualKiller]

Need one more to join us tonight for the PoE & Nightfall/Weekly, any takers?

I still love doing Crota. PSN is TTBHG. I'll gladly help out.
