Finally played the raid up to the last boss.
I love it. The raid is really fun. The area/aesthetics are great. The rooms are challenging and require very precise teamwork.
I guess that may be the hangup with most people. A lot of the time, it comes down to every person knowing and performing their role well. The thing I like about that is when you screw up, its your own fault.
Every member has their own actions in their own vacuum, which, when taken together with the rest of the team, leads to success.
Its a very technical raid but that makes it much more exciting and rewarding to progress.
Also, the raid is just immense. Very impressive work.

Anyone up for trials still on PSN?
Name is Hero_1985_
Guess the person above was just taking a poll, 'cause I responded immediately and never heard from them. So, still need a group of 4.

This week is tough but doable, especially if you've got high level people with you. The last room is a major pain in the ass if you don't have decent weapons, though.

Your fire team is set to invite only.
Need 1 more for trials once I'm in. Someone join us!
I think Im probably okay on weapons.
I imagine Riskrunner is really good in that final room.

I will join, psn robertsoneuan92
What's good for the last room? I saw Datto using a fast ROF shotgun. Merciless maybe? Or that exotic rocket launcher for fast, huge, 1-shot dps?

You can join the part you need.
My fireteam/clan had a 301 titan that knew what he was doing. That really helped.
We exploited the oracle that you can make respawn between zones so we went into the final room with a little less than 13 minutes remaining.
The last room was still really hairy. We lost a bunch of time wiping at various phases in the fight, and there's nothing to do but watch the clock tick down over your ghost.
FYI, there were two times during the fight we saw the boss unmistakably fall off the catwalk and vanish. I thought we might have won right then but he returned both times.
I did that with my Warlock today. Got him from 200ish to 295 in about 15 minutes and that was only with 2 pieces. He's 301 now.

Am I the only one getting regular disconnects from the destiny servers?
It's good, just boring which is why I don't really use it in general. That rate of fire puts me to sleep.

Me and my friend wants to do the raid from the gauntlet. He is new for the raid but a fast learner and his light is 285-ish. I think we don't mind if we do it fresh if other players need it as long as we do the garden really fast 
Need 4 players. Know what you are doing and have ghorn y3 light level 402

Need 1 for raid, we are at the gardens
Tried my first ever destiny raid last night. Was 266 gear level. My lord....now I understand the no matchmaking.
We made it past the first part with the

is sooo dumb though. I understand teamwork, but this
is not fun to play. Will try again next week when I get closer to 280.

Woo! Checked off Flawless Trials pretty early in this game.
This was my first weekend playing Trials, so also my first time playing on Eternity.
Eternity is essentially what would happen if someone made a Halo 1 map, but with 5GB worth of textures. In a good way. Also, Countdown is actually fun on that map. I can't get into Countdown on the city map at all.

Anyone else need a Calus kill? I still need it.
I'll take connection based match making over getting put up against someone on my skill level on the other side of the world any day.

That's the fun cap. Working as intended.
Skill is considered in all matches, but in Quickplay it's weighed well below Connection. Competitive is where Skill gets weighed a lot more.

One of the problems with it being 4v4.
Multiple times today and last night.
