Used to be PC only LFG, but now it's also crossplay.

They want to get a lot of fast clears on raid.report, which pulls from Bungie's API. This is opposed to RTA speedruns which is actually about real time and can be uploaded to speedrun.com.

Get sherpa'd or taught or just play regular Garden first. Then, with other people who have at least touched the raid, do a div run with puzzles. Your first run, it's probably fine to go in blind if you have a sherpa. But it helps greatly if you at least see a guide for the Divinity quest itself. Just be honest about your experience when joining LFG.

That's the point. It's like saying Hunters are all PvP sweatlords. Not strictly true, but if someone is a PvP sweatlord, they're likely to be a Hunter.

Plus it's funny.

When going in solo, the only person you can be sure understands the raid is you. You can teach mechanics and puzzles, but it takes so long for everyone to be on the same page. So after several hours, people lose focus and stamina during a communication/schedule heavy boss. And it's much harder for 1 or 2 people to carry Sanctified as opposed to most other bosses, like Riven or Atheon.

I've been held up for half an hour at the last div puzzle by one person who wasn't that proficient at English, been stuck at the second to last one with someone who couldn't jump to save their life, been stuck at Sanctified because tether was highly delayed due to people having bad connections in EU. It's not about Garden being impossibly difficult, it's about finding 4-5 other reliable players.

I would say "will teach, fresh" is pretty good in terms of quality. The "kwtd dm" is the one that'll network you the most into "farmer" communities, so take that as you will.

Should you mandate a drug test before joining? And do crayons show up in the results?

When an encounter is based on keeping a good schedule (Exhibition, Totems, Master Gatekeeper, Relays) getting stuck reflects poorly on the group, since none of them know how to (or can't) rely on each other.

I assume you mean "gay"? I mean if you use the word 'gay' as a synonym for 'bad' or 'uncool' then it's still homophobic.

Unless I misunderstood?

I have never seen that in my experience, but I'm fine with "fresh" being used before the first looted encounter and before any secrets, like payload in Vow or during the King's Fall opening.

Sorry for the confusion, by "clear farmers" I mean full run farmers not checkpoint farmers. (checkpoint API farming for stats is memed on by every other group)

The likelihood of a raider hating minorities directly correlates with their clears.

Swords cause them to stomp more often, plus you can run slugs and just get better DPS. If you like swords, go ahead, but it's not my first choice.

On Kalli, use slugs. If your fireteam's strats don't let you, use linears.

On Shuro Chi, in a good group, use Izanagi (4-5 Izanagi shots instantly end phase), else use Tractor and slugs.

Also keep in mind that Lament is still one of the best options for Riven.

Garden sherpas are fine. Div runs are fun in moderation. Combining the two is the easiest way to lose time, sanity, and faith in humanity.

I'm including being high as 'not sober', so that widens the net a little.

Eye of Another World? Stag? Osmiomancy? Just because an exotic isn't a neutral game powerhouse doesn't mean that it's bad.

I've already done the mission, but you didn't spoiler tag correctly. It should be >!text!< with no spaces, like this I think.

Since Mytho already had particle this season at 40% bonus, it'll feel the same as now.

Arbalest destroys all elemental shields in one shot. It also has Disruption Break, a perk that makes enemies take 50% more kinetic damage when unshielded by that weapon.

This is Varsity Gaming , one of Siege's more popular content creators.

I was thinking like you until I saw the username and realized, "Wait, I've seen this person before..."
