I really want to try the knights strat... I see it, and it looks a lot less chaotic IMO. Never done it, so I don't know, but would love to try it

Question on challenge mode.

We killed the warpriest but unfortunately as we were taking him down the aura person died and I got the aura a second time so we didn't beat the challenge . I know I cannot get the regular loot again but can I still get the challenge loot or am I SOL?

Could always go at it again and find out... I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure if you beat the challenge mode you'll get the loot as the loot table is different from the actual boss, so in theory you should get the challenge drops, just not the drops from Warpriest.

That is what I think but was not sure. After the game maybe I will try again (from the start of the raid)

Okay, so it looks like we have a least a partial group for Oryx HM after the game? I'll try to plan for that.

If we end up doing that, my vote is for knights. No knights gets too hectic based on my experience as it's hard to down all the ogre's at once and then the adds cause issues. Killing the nights is not overly difficult, though it can be a challenge at times, especially the last one. Good communication should be enough to deal with that though - it's my preferred strategy.

It's not a significant nerf though... the cooldown and armor reduction is warranted IMO.

I wonder if they are going to balance the other classes with each other as well... Or at least fix the short stop on the bladedancer.

Sorry looks like I'm out for tonight. Got sucked into a Christmas party lol

[Anduril]

Hard to say whether it's just right or a little too much. On one hand it's pretty easy to hit a floating titan with a sniper compared to a Gunslinger and their less predictable/instant shots. I think we'll find Sunbreakers a little frustrated that they don't have other viable builds because the main perk tree choices are the best by nature of sucking less despite being nerfed.

All these Striker changes are welcome. Lots of perk tree choices to consider as well as the exotic armor like Helm of Inmost Light getting an indirect buff.

I think I'm out for tonight too, so don't wait up. Good luck with Oryx! I'll be on tomorrow afternoon for trails though if anyone is interested

I'd be down to be some trials fodder.

Also, we should just do the Oryx cp tomorrow sometime since it seems not a lot of people are going to be on tonight

[TjRhythmic]

What time were people thinking about getting on tonight to run that Oryx cp... or, the full raid?

[TjRhythmic]

I won't be on tonight, have my son's Christmas concert to attend.

[Deviaant]

With completing the warpriest challenge yesterday (Thanks everybody for being patient, especially you stryker) I got a couple 310 drops and I managed to bump my light up to 295. Plus I learnt +2 agility weapons are pretty dang helpful.

[TjRhythmic]

Anyone down to HM raid tonight or tomorrow?
