Any commitment-shy raiders out there? (Destiny)

by Earendil, Friday, October 03, 2014, 11:09 (3947 days ago)

I'm a "working professional" that moved 3 weeks ago and got married 8 weeks ago. I'm trying really hard not to let Destiny ruin my new life. It's difficult :)

When I play with people, it's almost always my brother and a former room mate, Also working professionals but they have the benefit of being unmarried.

We'd all love to try out the raid sometime. We even attempted to poke our head inside with just the three of us. We almost made it, but out level 26/27/27 couldn't quite get the door open alone.

I'm wondering if there are any other DBO peeps on the XBox One that would be willing to spend an uncommitted hour or two this weekend or next week to try out the vault. We can't commit to two hours a day, or 12 hours in a single day. I doubt we'd start with the expectation of finishing prior to Tuesday. But we'd like to be able to check it out and get our feet wet.

Let me know if anyone is interested. The three of us are currently sitting at 27/27/27 with each of us in a different class. Though I doubt we'll care if we only get volunteers from a single class :)

Cheers,
Earendil / Finwe Of Noldor


tl;dr
Want 3 more busy fools that want to peak inside the Vault of Glass but don't have time to finish. Platform = XB1

I'm completely down with this. I've been dying to get in since the first week, just didn't want to tangle with registering at some other site, and trying to get hooked up with people and manage schedules, etc.

My group is 3 members. We're US-based, in the EST timezone. We typically have a window between 5:30 pm EST and 7:00 pm EST during the week, and on weekends, it varies (we can be very flexible).

I'm a 28 Warlock, both subclasses maxed, most armor maxed and pretty decked out. My 2 compatriots are both Hunters, L27 and L26. I'm absolutely game to find some time to troll around the Vault. The non-committal part is the thing, because you never know when you might have to drop suddenly to go do something...and I would hate to do that to a group of people...but if we all go in understanding that it's a possibility, and we're just messing around to test it out, then that's exactly where I'm at.

Feel free to reply on this, or add me on XB1:

I will likely be on MUCH later tonight (date night with the GF), so if I don't accept right away, I promise, I'm not ignoring you.

VVintermute, what are the chances you and your 2 buddies would be up for spending a couple hours on the vault saturday morning? We're on the west coast and I *think* we could hit it starting at 8am our time (11am east coast). We'd be able to play for probably 4-5 hours I think. Still trying to nail my two friends down for timing :)

If you need to fill a spot, I've been wanting to try the Raid as well, but I can only play late at night after the munchkin is asleep; after 9pm pacific usually. But I can play into the night if necessary. :)

And noted as cool people :)

I'll point out again that I tend to play with two other guys I know in RL, so if I'm not inviting you to play every time I'm on, don't be hurt :)

They tend to be on after work, 8pm-11pm, sometimes later. I'm usually on from 10:30-midnight PST, which is after the wife goes to sleep.

This weekend is kind of a mess, but if we can put something together I'll be sure and ping you guys.

I'm on at random times but at the moment readily available during the weekdays Mon thru Thurs.
And I too have wanted to try Raiding but without the commitment. Maybe just a raiding hookup.

My GT is red robber and I like to play as a defender Titan and a support role. I've almost maxed out my defender class and my striker is complete. Please add me, I need some peeps. I have a mic but I'm usually quiet and mostly talk game stuff.

Cool! I was on late last night, my son had a really weird day. Tonight should (hopefully) be back to normal. Still shooting to be on around 9/930 pacific.

Hmm, I'm on late EST, to 10:30 PST would be about 1 am which is a stretch. Still if you have an earlier start I would be happy to join.

27 going on 28 Hunter (Gunslinger maxed, blade dancer getting there).

I too never know when I will really be able to put in the hours, but would love to go on a list for casual invites (Kind of against the point of the raid I guess, but I'm sure it'll work out!)
