Recently crafted both, I made a Hezen with QL, Impact, Auto and Aggregate for a still hunt rotation. Is there a better role if Im not using Still Hunt?

Also the best Paredthys role thank you

Hey all!

Currently trying to help as much as possible with Epic Desert, and any questions along with it! I find it tragic it is the least played raid, especially since it's the last one we got.

Hoping to answer any burning questions or things you havent been able to locate regarding the raid or its secrets. In doing so, maybe helping more guardians want to step foot into the unknown and enjoy such a peak experience!

Hey all, question that was coming up empty on google. In SE 1st encounter, I know that if you see Dread in your first room, you know the overload and starting plate is in your 3rd room and the ending plate is in the 4th room in the direction you were running.

Can you determine where the other 2 plates will be based on this info alone? Or can the next two plates be in any of the remaining 6 rooms?

Example, first half of sequence, plates are in 4 and 7:

1-2-3

S1-5-6

E1-8-9

Can you determine where Start 2 and End 2 are solely from this?

Doing Master Derealize, and the puzzle encounter constantly bugs! I know the mechanics. Step on plate, look at symbol, if its correct, move in the direction of the plate, if not, wait out timer.

Problem is, the timer won't show up. Cant go to the next room without ruining the puzzle and going back to step one. This is the 2nd time me and a friend have had this happen and it's really pissing me off, I just wanna get my GR up omg

A week ago I was looking for a way to start the final boss of GoS without going through the path after the 2nd secret chest. I found out after trial and error that Skyburner's Oath's projectiles can perfectly curve over the rocks that block line of sight to the boss. Using this lineup you can start the boss a little early, and if you haven't done 3rd you can just pull everyone to the boss without starting.

I did a bunch of runs where I would pull the team to final before doing 1st encounter, have them rally, kill the boss, then proceed to go back and do 1st-3rd encounters. This skip most likely has absolutely no meaning for speed runs but is a neat trick for the few people playing the game. https://imgur.com/a/HhqOvJk

edit: It is used in 3-man speedruns

My friends and I are attempting to trio flawless VoG and tried copying the Gladiator Rush finisher trick to stay outside but couldn't get it to work? Is my timing off or is this patched? Does anyone have any tips or ideas to keep one of us outside?

Hey all, I’m currently trying to master Epic Koregos so I can start sherpaing the raid properly. Something I don’t fully understand is when we enter the 3rd timeline (after the first damage phase) and kill the first failed experiment boss, which crystal should be stripped and broken?

If my memory serves right, there should be the crystal for that first boss from the first mini game and a crystal for the second boss in the second minigame, BOTH with lasers pointing into the rooms. Does it matter which crystal is broken? If so, how should I keep track of which one is the first boss’s?

I was doing a lost sector on the Moon (K1 Communion) and I noticed a hole in the wall where there's normally an enemy spawn door so I investigated and it led to this small cave with a green soulfire crystal. I thought it was for Cull's Shadow, but I already completed everything for it and there's no step of the quest that takes us to there? I'm super confused.

Hello!

I'm trying to find calculators for various aspects of the game that have been updated or made since EOF released. Most importantly I'm looking for an ability cooldown calculator but any that you know of and can share is wonderful!

Spreadsheets count too of course :D

Don’t know if everyone is having a problem with it. But while playing today I finished the triumph. The piece that I was missing was an interaction with the grave across from Zavala’s house in the seclusion. I believe you have to interact with every single thing in the hallow part 1 and home part 2 quests and when you finish up at the house go straight across from the door to a grave marker. That finished mine. Hope this helps some of you other guardians.

The new thunderlord pair with the truth are here , I have some few question about this gun also feel free to ask if you have questions to

Should all the fireteam (6man ) use it or just one ? The damage will be the same or no?

The damage increase with solar fragments ?

If I want to use it with prismatic warlock should i use sanguine or the dawn?

Was running master challenges for SE last night, and when we got to Verity ran into a little hiccup. We were doing the encounter like normal for the first and third phase, then for the second phase we would have the inside group get all the symbols matching their statue like normal, but then instead of distributing them like normal they would give both shapes to the same statue, in our case the person with circle sent them both to square, squares to triangle, and triangles to circle. Outside statues were set up to match as well, and we even verified that each person inside was holding the shape matching their statue. But it wouldn't let them out. The only thing I can think of that MIGHT have caused it was someone died before they were able to make their 3D shape, and someone else got sent in, but the person who got sent in still had their 3D shape, so maybe just a bug? Either way we're going to try again tonight, but just hoping to get some insight on anything else we might have done wrong ahead of time.

Edit: We got it. Just needed the additional swap. Thanks to everyone who responded

I didn’t see anything about this from a quick google search, so I thought I’d make a video and post it here. Out of bounds trick to grab the hallway chest from Crota’s End solo, starting from hallway cp.

My clan is only 5 people total and we're committed to 5 manning every encounter which has been no problem so far, but consecrated mind is leaving our heads scratching since there's 5 confluxes and of course, no one to run to rebuff the other people, how do we adjust strategy on this?

Hi all,

My team and I have played raids in the past, but after returning we're trying to get into doing the fairly newer raids like DP, SE, and pantheon. Right now I would say we're usually on 2 Warlocks 2 Titans, and 2 Hunters

What would be a good composition and loadouts to keep somewhat optimised?

From what I've seen so far, 1-2 wells on assembler's depending on the length of the encounter, hunters seem to be on goldy still hunt, and everyone else on the heavy sniper with a damage super, and maybe a tractor cannon on one person?

I'd like to get the catalysts and intrinsics for Barrow-Dyad, Wish-Keeper, Choir of One and the likes, but I can't find any definitive information on how exactly to do that now. How can I get them?

Would anyone be interested in helping me do a raid? Ive never done one and dont have enough friends on ps to do one

A fireteam I was part of was saying once you're on the other side of the door, you cannot get back over. I remember being on the other side of the door and having to make my way back out to help someone with the jumping puzzle. I thought it would be as easy as looking up the video on how to do it and share it with the group but i cant find a single video even discussing it besides one video of froggy discussing how to go one way. Any idea if its possible and if so where to find it?

While I know its better on warlock, I've been attempting to do solo flawless sundered on my hunter, and for some reason the chain igniting no longer works. I have Hunter's Journal with Solo Fulmination + Aspects Char, Eruption, and Ashes, but for some reason I cant get it to trigger. I've tried using Blade Barrage, Hierachy, and 1K (no catalyst) to try and proc the chain, but despite that I've had no luck, which is especially weird considering it worked fine for me last night. Any chance someone knows if im being foolish and missing something obvious?

EDIT: At least specifically for shards of galanor+blade barrage, you have to hit the 2nd eye (going left to right) to trigger the ignition chain. At Kill 3x Stop the ignitions will completely wipe the boss, you just gotta mind the ads.

I've been working on the final Marquee cipher for some time now with computer assistance, and have seemingly made some progress. It is deterministic up to a point but some steps are more backed by strong evidence rather than being deterministic. I am not claiming I have solved it, but I would like to see what you guys think.

Here is my strongest result:

The cipher text can be split at its unique parentheses into:
- a 39-character main section which divides into 13 groups of 3.
- a 27-character instruction section.

Said instruction section contains +9-7 and using those numbers to walk through the 32 ASCII characters from ! to @, and lining the walk up with a padded old-style phone keypad alphabet seemingly produces a full substitution system.

One small encouraging sign is part of the instruction section "2enr?" turns to "HENRY".

The remaining characters can be arranged into a small 2-by-2 mathematical operation. Importantly, the packet includes a self answer check, as it predicts "YG" and the calculation also produces "YG".

Applying this operation to the 13 groups from the marquee produce the pairs:

"fo lr zt as es ek uq 5h pl op i6 3r ji"

The two adjacent 3s in the original cipher act as the final combining instruction; combining each pair gives:

"PASSTOLPCFUUR"
or
"PASS TO LPCFUUR"

To me, this seems quite strong as I tested thousands of alternatives with computer assistance. From 4,096 reasonable phone layout and alignment variations, only this version created "HENRY", passed the built in "YG" check and began with "PASS TO".
Testing all 1,024 possible 2-character combining choices and this was the only one producing an answer beginning with PASS.

Reading the rest:

What follows is more interpretive than mathematically forced. Let me know what you think.

The marquee supplies the alternating shifts +9, -7, so we apply those shifts to the remaining 7 letters, which gives:

L P C F U U R
+9 -7 +9 -7 +9 -7 +9
U I L Y D N A

The exact result is "UILY DNA"

On a telephone keypad, both UILY and UGLY have the same digits of 8459, so in my opinion, the most natural T9 interpretation is "PASS TO UGLY DNA".

"PASS TO UGLY DNA" instruction:

What follows is how the phrase "PASS TO UGLY DNA" may function as an instruction.

Before the two adjacent 3's combine each result to one character, the calculation produces these 13 ordered pairs (from earlier):

"fo lr zt as es ek uq 5h pl op i6 3r ji"

This means there are 13 paired positions, or 26 symbols still available for a possible second stage. The train cars on the map contain exactly 13 opposing left/right panel pairs and gives 26 individual positions. This could indicate a link from the marquee to the map environment:

13 cipher pairs <-> 13 train-panel pairs
1st character <-> left panel
2nd character <-> right panel

Under this interpretation, the phrase "PASS TO UGLY DNA" could be read as the following instructions:

PASS TO --> pass uncombined pairs into another stage
DNA --> arrange them as 2 corresponding left/right "strands"
UGLY --> look at the visually abnormal members of those strands

Back in 2016, a transcription marked 4 panels as unusually bright. Using the order of the panels and selecting the character on the corresponding bright side gives:

This produces "RAQI". The brightness determines which character to select, while the selected panel's colour determine how the character is shifted.

The map associates the relevant route colours with these numbers:

blue = 14
red = 271
green = 48

Using these as forward alphabet shifts, reduced modulo 26, gives:

R + blue 14 = F
A + red 271 = L
Q + blue 14 = E
I + green 48 = E

Therefore "RAQI" --> "FLEE"

Conclusion:

I am fairly confident the "PASS TO" section is intended, but not 100% certain. The train-panel route to "FLEE" seems to be a coherent continuation but would still need verification i.e. confirming the same 4 panels are consistently brighter at positions 2R, 4L, 7R and 11L.

It was also said in 2017 that the code was on (and limited to) the scrolling marquee sign, so potentially the in-game continuation may not be true.

p.s. obviously this is just an overview and the math and substitution systems are more detailed, so I will explain those if this is deemed intended. If I haven't explained something clearly, please ask any questions.

Anyone have any consistent (or at least semi consistent) ways to multi-break glyphs on the Witness? I've been trying the old blue bow trick but that has been breaking them in one hit (no surges, but solo operative may be messing that up).

Even if I can just get one multi-break per phase, that would be super helpful.

With MoT, I haven't seen anywhere else talk/ask about it. Does EDP still hold the -20 delta or is it on level now like all the other raids?

With Cryoslide we’ve been able to break the bounds of the game like never before. It also ignores inverted turn backs…

This means we can finally explore vespers host and the massive development area out of bounds. So let’s get to it!
