Ran a long raid with a LFG group and got through most of it, here are my thoughts on the tricky bits
confluxes and oracles, both ok, I think if you struggled with the confluxes its possible due to lack of raid weapons, Need that oracle disruptor perk, vicious circle though as you need to get past oracles to get a weapons drop. Will get easier as we all get gear. Oracles for me as all about roles, counter sniping and add control so important with two people on oracle patrol.
The Templar challenge. Actually just seen a 105 second cheese video on the destiny forum, worth looking at. We did it from the right hand side with relic holder blocking the left teleport, and 1 guy blocking the right teleport.
Was tough, Titan bubbles and storm caller orb generation essential. Two people with swords to kill the adds, two people with galley and snipers to do most if the damage. He's a sitting duck if you can survive the adds.
