Sadly no. Rellekh is super disappoint.

We got the rhythm down, but the final round of mines always had a surprise for us. We came really close, but we had to be adults and go to bed at some point.

I've only got Funkmon as a tentative volunteer for Saturday on the Xbone. I can play Saturday at 9 EST if you want.

If they can't, if 1 360 guy wants to help, we could do that.

Thanks Kermit! It looks like you got a crew together, but if you need an extra player, I'll log in around then on my XBONE.

I'd be happy to give it a try this evening if you would like.

Remember you can kill him with rockets before the 2nd mines even spawn. I like to kill all the adds and do it from the left platform. Keep circling the arena until he's really far away when you turn around ready to shoot. If he's close there's a risk he teleports onto you, so just circle again. After 15-25 rockets you can disarm the mines in an empty arena!

Thanks! I may just give that a try. I will say that that works great on current gen where you can have access to your synths with ease. Old gen, its a gamble to access your menu.

That weirdly made a huge difference in my gameplay.

by Funkmon @, Thursday, July 30, 2015, 15:17 (3503 days ago) @ Robot Chickens

I once said that Gjallarhorn had not changed my day to day Destiny gameplay. It hadn't. Because I was still in the 360 mindset of Heavy ammo synths. Knowing I can have 14 shots basically one after another changed how I so encounters, so Gjallarhorn is used by me quite a bit more. 10 seconds to load the menu is way too long.

You shouldn't die from clunky UI

by scarab @, Thursday, July 30, 2015, 16:40 (3503 days ago) @ Robot Chickens

holding reload to use ammo synth would be great.

And would work even on old gen hardware as well as on new.

That does make it tricky! Make sure everyone has full rockets before you begin. 21 rockets plus whatever else you can throw at him should be sufficient.

I shall ever be a puffed-up peacock due to our first Skolas defeat. No cheese, full encounter, with Arc burn. Super frustrating at times, but in the end immensely satisfying to pull off!

We almost had him in one of our earliest attempts, if we could just make it through the second wave of mines we'd have had him for sure. Sorry I had to bail, but I'm in central time. :-/

We did almost have him! I'm sorry because I feel like we let you down too. Next time...

FYI, Rellekh is no longer super disappoint.

...but I still have other characters! So, you know, the disappoint may return.

Success. Thanks DredPirateWes! Thanks DBO!

by Robot Chickens, Friday, July 31, 2015, 04:17 (3502 days ago) @ Robot Chickens

Beardfade, Rellekh and I tackled him in a painless run tonight and burned him before the 2nd mines came. We didn't even use all 21 rockets.

I feel very comfortable with him now and I'd be happy to help out anyone trying to take him down.

So I was scanning DBO before bed and saw your plea after I was all comfy so I rolled over, grabbed the remote and fired her up (never leaving the comforter of course) only to find you had Hanu helping you. SO I rage quit and vowed to never answer your siren call again.

(My Bed/Living Room/ Kitchen/ Tool Storage is all one space making this feasible)

We'd have loved to have you along. We do Crota without a mic, how hard could Skolas be?

Man, we were trying to play with Hanu without a mic. At least you and Robot have a code of some kind...most of the time.

Teabaging a door means lets go Dumbass
Knifing means cover me
Dancing is kinda like LOL/ I got your message (unless you died a dumbass then we'll dance on each others corpses)
Pointing is pointing really (or we shoot with colorful guns to indicate directions)
Sitting means wait, or beer run, or what happens when the beer passes through your system run, or rellekh left the spoon on the pot burning the house down gotta run k bye.
dont really have a wave action
And massive messages painstakingly typed in XBL vaguely outlining a plan

Gee Thanks

If I recall, the burning spoon occurred when Robot was not home, and no apartments were burned down in the incident. Thanks for the reminder of that event. And for the decoding.
