I hate to admit it but I still have only ONE clear of Crota hard.
I keep getting in LFG groups that aren't that good, or give up fast. Besides I have not tried a ton.
But, it's hard! The oversoul at the end just, makes it always going to be fairly difficult. Especially if the swordbearer isn't on point.
Then I get in these groups that get confused or dont even know how to time the hits on Crota correctly to kill him on the oversoul. It's frustrating, probably half a dozen times I have been right there only for some stupid thing to go wrong at the very last second. And I dont run the sword.
Another problem is I typically end up raiding between like 3-7 AM, and the groups seem pretty poor at that time. I need to start raiding a little closer to prime time.
I really dont care, I have enough shards for my 2nd 32 now, I just want the shader on my 2nd character too.
Really on the verge of running out of things to do in the game. After I get my 2nd Crota clear, I'm probably just going to piddle around trying to collect exactly the weapons I want, and do bounties to level them for the next forseeable weeks. Probably run CE from time to time just for kicks and whatever oddball thing I might be pursuing, like a raid helm with orb health regen.
I decided I like LDR better than Black Hammer on Crota. It hits just a little less, but you get one extra in the mag and six extra in reserve, plus you get the armor piercing bullets that come in handy to shoot through barriers in a couple places, such as the swordbearer and the 2nd ogre sometimes.
Thus I typically run, Gallahorn, LDR, and Badger on Crota.
Alternately, I'd run Suros, LDR, and a legendary RL. Generally health is not enough of an issue to give up Gally, I'm pretty good at staying alive at this point. The alternate lineup is more something I switch too if I take heavy damage, until I recover it. With the unfortunate issue that it saps heavy ammo to switch.
I bought about 15 heavy synth with glimmer. Last resort but Xur doesn't have them. And I already probably used 4 or 5 on failed Crota runs this morning.
Since I think I'm on the verge of not running Crota's end as much anymore, I may pull up my 3rd char, armor him to at least 30/31, and just start running nightfalls 3X, since that's where you get the best guns in theory.
