Raids

It seems that raids will be six man teams and only with your friends, this is coming from IGN. And Bungie is going to push us all to the limits. There won't be quest markers or waypoints, so it sounds like we got our hands full.

  • we have confirmation that there are checkpoints. Raids will be made easier to beat in several sessions by the ability to store your insertion points each week - meaning your group can break off and rejoin at a later time. Progress and loot eligibility is then reset every seven days - meaning you can only gain rewards from an encounter once per week.

      • I can't wait. I used to be a hardcore raider in early WoW and love when you actually have to earn your keep. I can promise Giggolo and I will be looking to rock that place ASAP

        • I'm just tossing out some basic ideals here, since it looks like Raids will be six man teams it seems we should be thinking about having two of each class on the Raid team. I know common sense right? But we have to think about sub-class within each one and deciding whom will play what role, a bit annoying at this point since we don't have full details of all the sub-classes for each class. But still all the same, now might be the best time for all of us to start thinking about what role we would like to play in the Raids and upon release date start working towards those goals and of course as more information is posted we can adjust as needed. I personally like playing a healer role and if the Warlock sticks true to that aspect I will most likely go with that, but on the other hand if the Titan continues to turn into the tank I think it will be then I will also consider that role as well. And as for the Hunter, it's just not my cup of tea. It's a cool class, but I prefer the other two. So even though it's early yet does anyone have any thoughts about how we should proceed?

          • Rumor is that it's not the mobs in the glass of vault that were a problem it was the jumping puzzles. 6 people having to synchronize their jumps from platform to platform. I'm curious how much your class and build affects run speed. Part of the puzzle could be figuring out how to balance everyone and for example put all Titans at codex 1 and 4, all Hunters at codex 2 and 6, all Warlocks at codex 3 and 5.

              Vault of Glass raid= Fireteam of 6, friends only. with jumping puzzles and other challenges not just killing. and can attempt the raid 2 levels prior. e.g. Vault of glass is 27 on normal, 30 on hard, and 31 on nightfall. but you can start attempting it on normal if you are level 25. There will be daily and weekly nightfall challenges. also, I found something called "power factor" I am going to assume its somewhat of a difficulty rating or strength of the mobs. Earth explore mode power rating: 158 Moon explore mode power rating: 368 Venus explore mode power rating: 526 Mars explore mode power rating: 842 Vault of Glass normal: 866 Vault of Glass hard: 1200 Vault of Glass nightfall: 1320

              • Man, I can't wait until the day that we are all geared up and ready to gather the team on our first attempt at this crazy incarnation. I think that 2 of each class will definitely be beneficial and I think that the different subclasses will prove indispensable in defeating it (if there is definitely a 3rd then even more so lol) I also think that we definitely need to include 2 of each elemental damage type as well, seeing as certain challenges in the end game will nerf certain elements I'm sure at different stages of the raid a certain element will be made null, although I'm sure this will only be one at a time, maybe 2 on higher difficulties lol the day that we take this on and beat it will be epic :)

                • I've just read that some of them will take up to a few hour's to finish. This somewhat excites and terrifies me in equal measures.
