I'm at 284 and its tough so far. I was logging on tonight to see what others were doing instead of a raid and maybe trials too. What time you on today as I could help with the nightfall?

I know. I'm gonna ask the ones that have got the furthest on FG to see if we can do it before reset. It would be ace to get the clan reward for everyone.

@Capn_Underpants @DarkArch3typ3 @Amnotright you guys swapping to the earlier time today? You'll then end up with 5 and we'll soon have one I believe.

The new trials starts today, with it now being 4v4. We don't know what the specifics are yet regarding how wins work and how different it is to next week, other than we need 7 wins to gain the Trials clan reward. As it is now linked towards the clan I think I'll give it a go this time round. If we don't win much, we don't win but as its a new mode and its got to be worth a go. Especially now that there is a Search and Destroy mode which I've found to be a good improvement on just Survival 3v3 back in D1. Anyone want to try it? Being honest on the outset, I'm not sweaty tryharding this as I know I'm never going to be the best but we could win something for the clan that excites me.

These are temhe reason it went down for some time the other day It represented a known hate symbol, therefore Bungie made a quick move to remove it. Apparently there is a chest piece now as well that may be of close similarity. Not sure what will be done about it. More people seemed to be bothered by the downtime rather than the similarities on Twitter.

Is there anything else to do about Strange Coins or any engrams, mods, etc available as well? Btw, Merciless is an absolute beast for bosses. Possibly a great purchase for the Raid if you haven't already dropped one.

When someone finds him can you post it here please. Thanks.

Perfect Rich! We really could and should have enough gameplay to put together FG Montages. PvP will clearly have some in there for the obvious team kills and killing sprees. However, there's always some great moments in PvE that is a great battle or clusterfuck event that was amazing to be a part of. I suggest we get the ideas down but also start pushing clips to youtube so we can send to you. Is@Greboth going to help you on this too as its a lot just for you to do mate.

I forget, do they have a type of Pro Clubs we could all take a player and play together?

So tonight we have a few more raids that I put on the calendar. Both have 4 slots left so make sure you get on them and RSVP on the Calendar Event if you can or can't make it. We've managed to get fireteams together for 3 of the 5 arranged so far which is pretty ace tbh.

Get your name down then if you want to dude. They'll be people that see this.

We managed to complete an Heroic Cabal Rig one (with the vents). Didn't realise you only have to shoot out one from each level; top, middle and bottom. Bottom is hard to find but using something that has a large clip help, like Sweet Business. Still by far the hardest of the events for me.

I didn't put a 6pm BST one up but I can if needed. The ones on there are 8pm BST and 10pm BST.

There's raid times available today but I've been manic at work today and I'm pretty fucked from little sleep all week to get a chance to do it yesterday. Apologies I've not had chance to really ask people what the score is for tonight and tomorrow. If we do get enough, I'm happy to see what time it is to see if I can help but equally I'm keen on enjoying the content and helping others complete stuff and get their Power levels up.

Glad you both enjoy them, apologies they took so long. Hopefully you all can get some use out of them. Via the FG App

Thanks Gary. Not got much time to be around today but have looked at this before. Good vid. Via the FG App

If you want to run the raid blind still please don't read this! Well it was a long haul but after 4.5 hours we got through 3 phases until getting to the Dogs section which we didn't really try because of the time. Start wise was finding an entrance. Chris found underneath the initial bridge some levers, 6 in fact. We worked out pretty quickly the levers would stay down in the right order. It has to be quick and helps if someone calls out the lever numbers to be pulled. (Corey wrote the combination down, we can add it later). First phase is to then get 3 staffs, in an order, and bring them to a triangular place in the map. You lose a staff if you get overwhelmed and a Centurion gets to one of them so you have to get 3 in a row and defend at the same time. What worked best for us was 2 went to get staffs (you have ads and a boss to kill first each time) whilst the other 4 defend the triangular point. Next is Pools. I think both teams got stuck here but when you know how, in the end it would probably take 15 minutes. Its effectively like the relay totem in Oryx with 4 plates in corners and you have to pick up orbs to get a buff. What that does when you stand on the plate is make the chain infront of you go down. You need to keep switching with a runner either side to keep momentum going. Once all done that a bong will go and you get around the middle. The buff btw allows you to run in the black water without damage. You then have to get the protection in the middle ring and shoot 9 purple hanging bell things. I don't know how many phases you get but its a struggle if you do take 3/4 gos. We did it in 2 which was mental but amazingly rewarding. You then have to do the staffs again. Felt more intense. We then got to a phase with dogs that you can't shoot. Felt very mechanic based but we stopped at that point. Via the FG App

Yeah, we did pretty well in 4.5 hours! I'm pretty fucked now though, gonna slow down my progress for my own sanity but I did what I wanted which was to run the raid blind on launch day. Will create a Spoiler thread because some want to experience it blind still. Via the FG App

Don't worry bud, I made the mistake of saying it in a thread the UK time. The Calendar automatically adjusts to your timezone when you look at it. Regardless though, we managed to get 2 teams together but I don't think we have absolutely everybody raid ready just yet so you didn't miss anything bud. Via the FG App

We have 6 for first and second raids! Good luck FG and enjoy the ride people! Via the FG App

Nice Kevin! Just to check, did you mean 8pm or 10pm as this thread relates to the 8pm UK start but you've said you're 'going' to the 10pm one? Just let me know either way

Currently we have spaces left today: 6pm Raid - 4 spots left 8pm Raid - 1 spot left 10pm - All 6 free I can't make the 6pm which is abit of a bummer but if the 8pm raid goes down well or finishes at 10pm I could maybe join that one too. It would be great if we could spread ourselves around considering theres enough to be raid ready for these. If we don't we always have the other dates and times.

Solo stuff counts too. That happened to me last week and it added some. It would be weird otherwise becausr you need a way to contribute yourself to get 5k and earn your own personal legendary engram. Did you find out why we weren't getting Clan XP for those Public Events? Via the FG App

Droped Sweet Business twice last night. The 99 clip is amazing. Also wrecks in PvP if you keep the gun rotation going.

Like you've probably seen @MrBiron I'm open to listening to what it is and what's involved. I'm sure it came up before but people were a little nervous about it. Plus we are one big giving family that looks out for each other. Coming in October, I plan to pick up about a large giveaway we all help out in ahead of Xmas. Happy to look into it. More importantly, what do others think?
