Destiny came and all of a sudden everyones "Pro". (A note on playerbase and the VoG)
Yesterday I played through the Vault of Glass fully for the first time.
It was great to see the beautiful design of it, but the problem was the people I was with.
For starters, it was a bunch of younger dudes who have a mouth on them xD
This guy was so proud to tell us how his lvl 30 has done the raid 100 times and that his own vault is filled with Legendaries and Exotics.
At first I was impressed, but once we got to the Templar... everything changed.
This was no longer the raid I played the first time, and died multiple times trying to do it legit.
No.
Instead, we had this lvl 30 telling me that "Hunter's are useless in the VoG". To which I asked why (considering we had a lvl 29 Hunter with us and I myself play as a Hunter), and he merely responded because they are.
Now it was only when we got to the Templar that I realised why I wasn't enjoying this.
The players were more concerned with glitching the Templar and Atheon, pushing them off the edge with their EPIC WARLOCK GRENADES, while me and another player sat in a corner, feeling goddamn useless. It sucked.
The whole point of a raid is to come together as a team and devise strategies to defeat the obstacles in front of you. I hardly felt like I even did anything in the raid, as these guys carried on talking about their "Amazing skills at pushing Atheon".
So, I sat in Atheons lair, literally hiding behind a -blam!-ing pillar while this dude compalined that Atheon was not going in the right spot.
I hadn't even shot a single shot at him, I hardly even knew what I was doing because this group were so focused on glitching him out.
I'm now on the Hard mode of the raid, but I don't dare go for it with another bunch of randoms for fear of sitting in a corner once more, listening to try hards as they talk about their 1000000 Exotics and Legendaries.
In conclusion, people are more concerned with glitching a raid and gaining loot, than actually finishing it legit.
[b]What is the point of glitching to get gear, when the gear is used for the Raid anyway? If you want play a dress up sim, go ahead and google a shitty flash game.[/b]
For this asking I'm on xbone

You should start doing it too for the DLC raids if you don't want to meet once again that guy who felt like a champ after making the templar fall, and now wants to try that new cheese technique on that new hive boss. I don't mind people cheesing their way through the Raid as long as they say they want to do so before starting it, so I can know when to leave the party instead of doing something I find meaningless or boring. That whole thing about people being proud of their "making bosses fall "skill sets"" is pretty ridiculous when they go and do it without even thinking about the other people in the party who want to do it legit. Like they're doing you a great favor or something. If I wanted to finish a game boss in less than 2 minutes, I'd go and play a martial arts fighting game, you assface. Anywho, yeah, remember all their names and don't let them in if you form a group for the next raids, since unfortunately most of them won't have the perseverance and the patience to go through a new hard raid before cheesing techniques are found, and will only hold you back. I'm not saying this as an insult, but you gotta admit most of you exploiting the glitches all have a hard time finishing bosses the normal way and are going to shit bricks when the harder DLC raids are released. I understand too though, I know it's boring to go through the same raid again every week for hours, and I know sometimes it's hard and you just can't kill that boss. You got a wife, you got work, you don't want to spend shitloads of time trying to finish a boss and seeing yourself fail again and again. So I kind of get why some people would want to look for the easy way. And that's exactly why I'm terrified that in two months, I will only find dudes who have no idea how to play through a raid normally for the next DLC. I don't want to spend hours in a raid because someone in the party has glitched their way to level 30 and has no idea how to finish a raid boss the legit way, or how to play properly in a team. Or doesn't know why he should use this gun and not that one. Or doesn't know how to use the Crota sword properly. That kinda shit.
