Is the daily Lost to Light? Anyone up for a latenight (9:00PST ish) go at it?
I can only handle one or two tries, but I can't resist the siren's call of an exotic sniper rifle.
Xbox or PS4?

You know I'm down to try. I'll probably try and do some research to see what it takes to get it done.
* Edit: I'll make an event and sign you up for it.
Sounds good

Having a strategy would be good. I could easily be convinced to give it a few more tries if need be.

I'd be willing to help if you guys can start an hour or two earlier. If not, it's no biggie - I already have mine.
Another fail...

Thanks Beardfade and Shed. Definitely the closest Beard and I have ever come to pulling it off. Seemed like a sound strategy, just 30 seconds shy. Maybe next time...

we were so close! we tried the "blights, adds, boss" strategy, but the acolytes just kept cloning themselves faster than we could kill them.
Tried with Squid and his friend yesterday.

First try: complete failure. No hope of doing it.
Second try: no change in strategy. Complete with 2 minutes left.
*shrug*
Potential top tip: I've heard that the Psions only clone if they are damaged, so make sure to not kill them unless you're positive you can finish the job immediately. Also, if you do blights, adds, boss, make sure you actually do blights adds boss. No leave 1 Psion in the rear bull crap. He'll be 6 by the end of the damage phase.

found this video, Oholiab. Datto did it solo his first try, but it's a thorough explanation of where to focus your attention and at what time, something to study for next time.
Finally got mine!
We handled it beautifully. One of us on each side focusing on blights and adds while the third DPS'd the boss down from the entrance hall. It worked out flawlessly as new blights would show up just as we were clearing the final adds from the previous blight. It never once got hairy and the entire boss fight took us 4 minutes, almost exactly.
Sadly, no one got the spaceship.
Details please!?

What light levels were you and what classes were you running? I'd love to know some details. We had so many Psions in our runs, it was mitosis nightmare :)
Mitosis Nightmare should be a band name

When we did it, it helped a LOT to have a Sunbreaker for two reasons:
1. His ult + splash damage wrecked Psions
2. His melee that degrades armor wrecks the boss.
