Black Spindle and the Vienna Singer (Destiny)

So not only does that Lost To Light get us an exotic, we also net a legendary starship with a slick black paint job and green tron lines.

As the resident ship enthusiast, this intrigues me greatly. Hoping we can get another shot at this after a few light levels up or something.

I asked someone who had completed for advice, and heres what I got.

+Adds are HP triggered. Which explains why we'd eventually get stuck in that entry bubble behind a wave of bullets. Their are four waves in total.

+Focus adds/blights, THEN burn the boss sounds like the way to win.

+Ideally we get to the boss with 6 minutes or more.


So yeah. Next week, I'm definitely investing in getting my sorry behind into the raid. I figure with all of us being high 290s, maybe 300s, its much more doable. Also maybe more thought into unit makeup. One of each class, new subs.

I never got the Ship :(

Cody got it yesterday I think. Or maybe Korny, or maybe Cyber. Oh well, I got the Black Spindle so I am happy.

When I asked for advice I was told adds spawn forever.

They do.

But if you let the blights and adds sit they build up to the point that you can't even poke your head out to take shots at him. We managed it by killing all (or at least the vast majority of) the adds and all of the blights, then focusing on him, rinsing, and repeating. Makes it MUCH more manageable. At that point the only real struggle is the clock.

I'll give it a go next time then.

This time we just got too frustrated with the game to continue. And for what? A gun we will be guaranteed later? For like 20 extra light? If we worked at it too hard next month when we all have them we'd feel foolish.

When going through this expansion, I'm trying to put myself in the place of Funkmon in March of this year, with all the guns. I'll have everything eventually. No need to front load it. Congrats to those who got it. I hope it wasn't frustrating.

WildthingVII got it in our run last night; didn’t even know it was a thing. Kinda has TRON running lights on it, looks really cool.

Well shoot.

Tried for a few hours last night, the adds got to us towards the end every time. Average time was around 5:30 when we made it to the boss.

But this ship. Gives me a new reason to run it a bunch. ;)

I got one. Too bad the running lights aren't red. That would be hot.
