I normally help various LFG people with raids. It's fun, I get to enjoy watching others finish raids, but as a day 1 of all Destiny raids and sherpa, I am baffled by this situation:
Vault of Glass. Atheon fight.
Apparently I was kicked out of a fireteam for not knowing the raid mechanics. In year 1, during damage phase, if the relic holder accidentally tilted themself and touched the corresponding rock in center mid, Atheon's splash damage came through the relic shield.
According to a Y3 VOGer, that does not happen and proceeded to kick me because I simply stood where you normally don't get that.
Has that been patched? Can you really stand, as he said, in the dead center and take no damage now?

Yes you can stand dead centre the problem is you must not move and keep the button pressed down. So you must be as far forward as possible to allow them space behind you but if they touch you the shield may temporarily stop and that will allow his splash damage in. Most relic holders do a count down telling everyone to get out on 5 or 8 so that they all out before the relic holder moves so that no body is hurt except by harpies.
