This isn't a nightfall. You don't have to stand on the rocks. The ones that are on the top of the area where the 3 waves of [b]vex[/b] spawn on the Archon Priest [b]strike[/b] when you're opening the door near the beginning. I understand you're JUST NOW getting an icebreaker, but please.. Just don't.
[spoiler]EDIT: Apparently this post was unclear to a few. I don't care if you have icebreaker, I don't care if you bought it, I don't care if you use it. However I do care if you sit at the back of the map sniping off goblins, getting essentially no kills leaving me to do 90% of the work. That's leeching off of me, and is not a play style. I think the icebreaker is great, and I use it for a few things.. But this isn't a nightfall. You're not going to die instantly, and you don't have to stand on that diagonal rock at the back of the 3 wave area on the Archon Priest strike about 1000 meters away, or whatever it is doing nothing for anyone.
EDIT 2: APPARENTLY IT IS STILL UNCLEAR TO ABOUT 2/3 OF THIS FORUM WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT, SO I AM NOW TYPING IN CAPS TO GET THE ATTENTION OF YOUR PRIMITIVE MINDS. READ THROUGH THE POST THOROUGHLY AND HAVE A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT I AM SAYING BEFORE COMMENTING ASININE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE A TOOL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME M8S.
EDIT 3: [b]SINCE PEOPLE WILL INEVITABLY MISINTERPRET MY POSTS IN THE FUTURE, I HAVE A VIDEO FOR YOU. THINK ON IT. MEDITATE ON IT. CONSIDER IT DEEP DOWN INSIDE THE PITS OF YOUR PITCH BLACK IGNORANT SOUL.[/b] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAKG-kbKeIo
EDIT 4: Bolded words were edited in for the special flowers of this thread who needed a little extra help.
EDIT 5: After about a day of this thread being out I remembered the name of the strike. It's called Winters Run. Hallelujah.
EDIT 6: Now that this thread has gone on for a few days and it has played out to my amusement, I will inform everyone that this does slightly bother me, but it doesn't matter to me all that much and I felt like getting a rise out of some people. It was fun everyone, now like it up because we're almost at 100 likes :D[/spoiler]

And strangely enough 3 people standing there all using Ice Breaker destroyed and annihilated all the Vex in no time at all. I think I prefer the fast way over your way.
-
Let em get it upgraded...psh
-
Yeah. I play how I want. Suck it.

Edited by SalineVampire: 1/20/2015 5:22:01 AMYou're welcome for taking out two of the three yellow Minotaurs, most of the yellow hobgoblins and at least one of the mini templars in that 3 wave area btw. While you're running around taking out the crap adds it let's me focus on those majors and ultimates. BTW. Mines maxed and I've had it for awhile.
-
I'll do what I want! (I've had Icebreaker for weeks since I got it from the Nightfall, and mine's maxed too)
-
-blam!- that little sniping spot. I go right in there. I time my shots too with the ice breaker to keep the archon stunned in place so my team can shoot em. Had one game where me and another guy with ice breaker took turns, kept him stun locked most of the fight.
-
Lol at elitist pricks
-
Pfft use the sniper at close range like men
-
I see 32s do this, even before icebreaker was sold, don't think anything has changed, they just have regenerating ammo.
-
It's already happening quick get a fire team and go without noobs
-
What's a vex?
-
Yeah I have noticed since IB sold so many people will just hang back and snipe. From the barrier and walker section in Sepkis prime to the archon priest to the nexus to freaking standing in the door of Phogoth. It's funny.
-
The funniest thing is the 2nd wave when vex snipers spawn in & kill my teammates on the rocks. im like *want a revive do ya bud? well if you werent camping so far away that wouldnt be a problem would it? so youll have to wait,ok?*. Ai snipers are awesome sometimes. :)
-
Who the -blam!- cares
-
You're just not legit if you haven't 360 no-scoped a hobgoblin off the top rock
-
Ghorn till ammo is out. Fatebringer/ novabomb the rest. Get to boss, puts controller down while I'll eat or browse on my phone and let the slackers do the rest. If team is decently good, I'll participate with boss.
-
Who does strikes? Lmfao
-
Actually I've run into a lot of noobs using ice breaker in iron banner this week.
-
Edited by Eterna1Oblivion: 1/19/2015 11:02:24 PMHad two guys sniping on that same spot you mentioned and they were just fooling around since they ran out of ammo quickly and didn't regenerate fast enough... I was killing everything in the first 2 waves but then they started dancing and not contributing so I sat and waited till they finished wave 3 which took them more than five minutes and the worst part is that one of them got an exotic and the other a legendary engram :# lol
-
I experienced this joy today. 4 hours of roc strikes and everyone was using ice breaker the entire strike! I understand using it in raids, and nightfalls. You do not need it for an roc strike.
-
Noobs "bc they have it"...Right. Firestarter for no reason. Entertainment at its finest.
-
Who freeking cares it's a strike
-
Strikes are too easy, there's a reason i run with IB every time m80
-
I go to the rocks with my No Land Beyond, get my six kills then wait for the other guys to do their part.
-
I just got a NLB from roc. I think game wants me to snipe more. Yes?
-
I have the Ice Breaker, I got it Friday evening. I already have 1632 kills with it and have it maxed out. It's a great gun, it's meant to be used....
