It was your gamertag that was flashing; you brought it up yourself. 'Players do not have access to this activity.'

I mean everything was pretty easy, especially on Crota. We shouldn't have any trouble with that. And it helps that the first part is the hardest part.

Just make sure, if you happen to be trying it with 5 people, to set the fireteam to invite only.

Snipe still hasn't had the experience of banging his head against a wall for hours upon hours and not completing the raid. We should give him that.

Heh. Special Pandemic Edition. Now with bonus features including new mechanics and commentary by Morpheus.

I'm thinking a quick flawless raider run on Crota, followed by King's Fall (Hard 310).

Sound good everyone?

Still have this on my old phone...XD

Sound good everyone?

So yeah, he wasn't goin' anywhere. lmao

I’ll have to see where I can get. I have a few KF weapons that were in the vault, and have some armor at 290. I might be able to make something work.

I’m not sure exactly how power drops work in D1 anymore, especially without having ROI. I wouldn’t be opposed to playing to get leveled up to do KF if people really want to do it.

Plus King's Fall increases throughout, ending at either 300 or 310. So just question marks, like the REAL old school. XD

It was fun though, minus the embarrassment of my Right Bumper crapping out on me. The swordmaster's gotten rusty!! ;-(

King’s Fall is such a good raid. I only did it a handful of times, but it was my first blind raid, so it’ll always feel special.

We did Vault and Crota. It was a whole lot of fun, and good reminder of the best parts of Destiny.

Unfortunately, I must have started new characters at some point and then not made it very far. I’m only at 290. Kings Fall requires 390, so I have some work to do to be able to do it. I’m seriously thinking about it, though. I had a lot of fun running through some old strikes.

Also, I never got Rise if Iron on Xbox. It’s still $30, though!

Max light in D1 was 400; I would be shocked if the raid required 390 (there was an expansion after that).

Hmm... looks like Normal has recommended 290, hard mode recommends 310.

Man, what did I see that was 390 then? In any case, my light was low enough that it wouldn’t even let us start King’s Fall on Normal.

Are the Age of Triumph versions 390?

I guess I'd completely forgotten about the Age of Triumph version. That doesn't explain why the game wouldn't let you START on Normal.

I'm lost. And sad - that was my favorite D1 raid, in the end!

Huh. Just checked out raid.report, I had 8 Normal clears, 23 Hard (310) clears, and 4 Hard (390) clears. Difference between fastest runs on Hard (310) and Hard (390) was 24 minutes - i guess it wasn't that much harder! :)

I still remember swearing I'd never run it again after my first time through the Tomb Ships.

Wrath of the Machine difficulties were 370, 380, and 390. I guess I'd forgotten how late that came out!
