Kermit's Xbox One Raid progress report. *SP* (Destiny)

Played for about six and half hours tonight.
The raid is amazing so far. Really, really fun. The jumping puzzle is incredible.
We made it to the Warpriest and banged our heads against him for three hours or better. We have it figured it out, we just haven't been able to execute correctly and deal enough DPS to get the job done.
Unfortunately our group is four Warlocks and two Titans. We all feel that a Nightstalker or two would be helpful.
My twitch stream of the event is archived if anyone wants to check out any highlights of the evening. Prepare to be unimpressed!
Looks like we're going to reconvene around 7:30pm Pacific Time tomorrow for another shot, which I will probably stream again. I saw one person checking in and out throughout the evening, I hope you enjoyed watching our failures!
Overall, it's been a great experience, and even though we've failed the Warpriest so many times, it doesn't really feel that frustrating (so far!). I'm sure there's more in store for us once we get past this hurdle, but I'm looking forward to it.
This has been my first full blind fireteam raiding experience, and it's been awesome!
Thanks to the group for running this tonight!

We definitely need to up our DPS. After that run to the Tower, I think we got it pretty high, but I'm sure we can get it even higher. Looking forward to wrecking that damn priest with you guys!
My crazy grav lift death.

Those things are deadly.

The Warpriest was small fries compared to what comes next...
I wish your group the best...

Yeah we discussed this point briefly last night. Just in a "Holy crap this is the first boss, what's still coming?!" sort of way. I'm looking forward to it.
Shut your dirty mouth!

Glad you're enjoying it and don't feel daunted!
Our group was tackling the next big thing and was licking our wounds in the tower afterwards.
Uh oh

My internet is acting up bad today. I hope it's better by Raid time, but currently I'm having sub-megabit download and over a full second of ping.
If it's not better within 6 hours, I think it'd be best for you guys to find a sub. I'll keep you posted.
Confirmed: count me out

Scheduled a tech visit for tomorrow evening, won't expect it to get any better until then, if that.
Don't feel bad for leaving me behind. I can raid with a blind local group later next week, if it comes to that. :)
Confirmed: count me out

Damn. That sucks. ):
I for one am willing to wait until the entire group can proceed together, but I'm honestly not sure if we can make that happen quickly enough for everyone. I don't think I can set aside another full weekend for it until at least a few weeks from now, and I can only do two to three hours in the evenings, and not much past 10:00pm CST.
I open for anything though. I'm ready to continue tonight if that's what we decide to do, and can find a sub.
Reboot everything! Pray! Sacrifice a goat!
We need you!
Did. No dice...

I rarely ever schedule a tech visit. If I do, it's because the goat population around my house is in serious danger of extinction. :p
Don't worry about me. I'm sure you guys can do it. :) I'll be cheering from my phone, if possible.
Protip: Sacrifice your dad BEFORE the goat. LET'S DO THIS

Like a phoenix, I arise from the ashes!
My dad had done a major network fuck-up that I missed... It's all good now.

He was retaliating against you for killing all the family goats.
