We were on fire. In just over 30 minutes, we escaped the abyss, crossed the bridge, and crushed the deathsinger. We felt unstoppable...

... And then we got to Crota.

It was just one of those nights were the Crota encounter would not behave. Cyber would hit sword slams that wouldn't do damage, Crota came down off the ledge and started teleporting, the gatekeeper wouldn't come out of his doorway except to go hide. It was rough.

We did eventually prevail, but we were 2 minutes slower than the Xbox crew.

Still, we seemed to get some good drops, and the run was great fun regardless. Congrats all around.

Again next week?

Hope you like the Nechrochasm. Sorry I had to back out at the last minute. Glad y'all kicked ass though.

1:43:24.

Memorable moments include:

Getting the loot drop for the bridge right before dying, and then having to do the bridge again because the checkpoint didn't register.

Realizing the key to ultimate victory at the Deathsinger was not throwing grenades from below.

Watching Crota kill Zero with his mind, because he sure didn't swing his sword.

Getting Steel through his first hard mode victory.

Playing normal mode after on our alts and having a much more fun, relaxed experience.

DBO prevails! I'm glad we pulled off the win, after so many failures I experienced when hard mode first released I wasn't sure what would happen. Also thanks for the loot guys, got my Word of Crota and the Crux!

Congrats!

I was watching Disciple's stream before we started. You were all efficient Crota-killing machines.

We got some excellent drops as well. Cruel got his Abyss defiant, TheeChaos got a Hard light, and I got a Crux!
