How does 10:30am sound for everyone?
We're going to Costco first thing in the morning as we usually do but would it be terribly inconvenient if I humbly requested that our start time 11:00 in the AM instead?

Yeah I can usually get 8-9 fully charged shots off a cannon in one teleport. Can get about 120k damage per shot with WoL/tether. I think it's especially important in the final damage phase to keep the cannons available until Aksis moves to the front to make sure you can actually kill him. In the other damage phases you can do crazy ass damage with WoL/Dank Drinker with the last teleport if he conveniently spawns in front of you.

I'm running some Trials tonight, but would be interested in VoG depending on timing. If I'm on, send me a message.

We might have someone on our collective friends list that might be down to raid. Don't need to LFG it if we don't have to.

We all still good for 11 this morning?

Haven't been able to get the challenge done after two serious attempts.
I'm only 390 but I haven't found dying has been a problem, but everyone I've run with seems to have serious issues with it. I'm running the raid armor that protects when holding a siva charge though, so that might really be helping me.

Had to run with 3 different groups before we passed challenge mode. It really is amazing how people don't prioritize properly in that fight. Honestly, your only real job is to stay alive - everything else is secondary.

We had one guy keep dying and he'd always say the ads were too much after he picked up the charge - then don't go pick it up! He could not seem to understand this concept that missing a bomb or two was okay. It tended to be the same people dying too.

EDIT: Added bonus on this was a group of squeakers was where we passed challenge mode. We only wiped a couple of times and cleared the challenge. Had maybe 3 wipes total in all the other encounters. I almost backed out right away when I heard their voices ("mom! do we have any more coke?"), but they turned out to actually be the only competent group.

First time I did Vosik HM (not CM), I kept dying because I couldn't figure out how to protect myself when I had the charge. Then I realized there was an armor buff on the raid chest piece when holding the charge. Suddenly nothing could kill me. It was great!

Challenge mode was a pain but our group was solid and we manage to pull through. I think as we progressed we got better and learned real fast what not to do. This is probably the best group I've worked with when it came to communication. Stryker was good at keeping us focus and I think we communicated well.

Also, we beat the under 6 min mark for the death zamboni.
