[Insanecyclone]

[jmc]

Anyone wanna run me through the nightfall tonight around midnight est?

Yet to do it, 267 light

On for a while, if anyone looking to do raid (especially Calus) or Trials or w.e

Legend of Acrius strike:

Spoiler: show

The strike is basically a prestige nightfall (timed, prism modifier, locked loadouts), so you need to be 290+ -- although, I'd say wait till 300.. Cleared it with three 290s with around twelve seconds left. We approached it with the nightfall burn idea (three arc subclasses, everyone saves their supers to burn down the boss), but it just wasn't possible, at least not at 290. Still kept all three arc classes though.
You start with seven minutes, but can kill anomalies (glowing blue orbs essentially) to get thirty seconds more. You can see them by the blue glow they give off, but some are hidden, so you'll want to look around a bit.
In the first area, wait till the tank gets lifted to reveal the core, have someone grab it and run it straight to the spot and ignore any remaining adds. I think the biggest threat in that part are the three psion snipers which one shot you.
The carrier slams it, and then everyone should hug the left side of that area to avoid all the adds and book it to the room you go through to continue. Go together because one person on their own will get demolished. From there, bait and kill the lieutenant you need to kill to open the next door. After it's dead, make sure you get the two anomalies you can see from the door behind you.
Run through the next room and run to the area you can call your sparrow. There are a couple anomalies scattered along this route and out in the open, so keep your eyes open. You can't just spin around like normal, so we ran to the left side of the ship, hopped up, then called our sparrows under cover and ran from the adds.
The tank room is rough. We had one person hit the right switch, then everyone went to the left side and skipped the first tank. We then used our supers to clear the adds here and worked down the second tank. Since we all popped our supers, we had enough orbs that we could get it back by the boss fight (although you might be fine even without orbs). I would say we lost the most time on this room, so yeah, just be aware it sucks. I think on our best run we had around five minutes as we left this room (although we didn't beat it that time..) and over four on the run we cleared it.
When you enter the boss' room, there are a bunch of anomalies -- one gives a lot of time and is on the right side of the room I believe. Just treat this room normally, be careful, pick off the adds, etc.
For the final part of the strike, our plan was to push him to the first tower, kill adds, push him to the second tower, kill adds, then use our supers to bring him down after he came down the second time. In our winning run though, because of adds and deaths, we didn't have enough time to do that strategy -- we just pushed him to fifty percent, then popped supers and beat him. When we popped supers though, we thought he was running to the second tower, but then he came back. I will admit, we got super lucky -- twelve seconds left and we barely had enough damage (as he died, the two of us still alive died to his firey AoE attack). Then again, the previous run, we failed when he had a sliver of health left, so fuck that fight >.>

Up to mid-280s after raid. Will be back after the Vandy / K St. game (starts at 4:30 PT; should be back around 8 PT, but chance I end up boozing at bar for a bit after). Also have MIDA now, so down for some late night Trials.

VU just won it's first game against a ranked non-conference opponent in 70 years. I am quite inebriated, but home now and would love to do some Trials.

Someone started mapping the underbelly of the raid.

Really enjoying the raid so far. But side note,... the insane buggy-ness in the Dog section of the raid makes me think it was never even tested.

i mean, the amount of times a run was ruined because a dog "saw" somebody up top or literally glitched its path, either walking one way and facing another, violently spinning/turning directions to "catch up" with its path, Or running off only to come back running to the same spot to see someone, or worse even, literally just seeing/detecting someone through a wall... like, I can't convince you unless you've experienced this, but legitimately 0 chance they could physically see anyone and they just b-line for our group and ram themselves up someones ass then "Detect" them...

It was the most hilariously maddening experience I've had in a raid section. It's just unreliably buggy.

I mean we all laughed so much at some of it but at the same time I feel like we'd of won this tonight if not for the amount of times we were screwed over by a bug.

Any Xbros want to get together and raid tonight? I'm a Leviathan virgin. Power Level 286-289 right now.

The Clan is currently at 99/100 people, so I'm creating a list of people who do not have D2 characters yet. I don't want to kick anyone who might pick this up on PC or maybe hasn't picked it up yet though, so if you're part of the clan but haven't picked it up yet, please let me know.

[Wulfgang]

Drunk Trials with randos late last night was not the greatest idea; got roflstomped. Think I'll stick to the BG crew for now.

Logging on in an hour; down for whatever, though I may start a Warlock alt as well.

[Dngnhack]

Anyone plan on raiding or trials today?

Here's the list of people who don't currently have characters. I pretty much stopped when I started seeing people with linked Blizzard accounts since I figure everyone on the list past that would have had to link since D2 was announced. If there's an asterisk, it means you didn't have it linked so I couldn't see if you had a character or not. Also, some of you have multiple accounts in the clan, so if you could tell me which one is the real account, that'd be great too.

At 295 now (290 with my standard gear). Will anyone be trying to raid today on Xbox?

You can get to irrigation solo, but drain you have to kill at the watchers.

Can open the ordered switch door solo though.
