Sort of reminds me of those old electric football games :p

Also why on earth are you using a scout rifle on the abyss?! Fatebringer, a sniper, and an HMG makes it ezpz :-p. I'm sure once Cruel gets done with the video and we can add commentary we can add tips.

Horse shit. I can fire from the hip at head level and straight destroy 5-8 Thrall in a couple shots. Truly the definition of EZPZ, no?

I find it a lot easier to headshot at those ranges with fatebringer vs a firefly scout rifle. If you can do it, than it's a great choice.

I say that as someone who feels your collective pain. Flawless Raider can be a brutal thing to accomplish... but that only makes it that much sweeter when you pull it off :)

Good luck on the next run!

I actually ran the Abyss with Gheleon's Demise (with Firefly) during our last normal run. I actually liked it quite a bit. The rest of our fireteam was nailing everything at close range, so I was able to focus on the enemies further back than usual. Fatebringer is a far better choice in most cases, but with the right fireteam a scout rifle can actually be very useful.

I actually noticed that you had that when last we played. I have one with a great roll and I STILL can't get it to kill stuff. Don't know how you did it.

As I said, it wasn't as effective as fatebringer, but it was great for picking off Thrall in the distance. You guys were doing such a good job dealing with everything up close, I just ignored the enemies that were right on top of me and focused on the path ahead or behind us.

I drop down all the time with MIDA and have never died because of it.

It could be a combination of factors. For example, if you have your subclass spec'd out for high agility and recovery, but low armor, you might be too weak and too fast to survive the fall. Add Mida on top of that and who knows.

Do I look like I don't know what I'm doing? Wait, don't answer that.

1) I was actually checking to see how well Gheleon's Demise + Firefly worked down there.
2) Notice that I switched to Fatebringer later on. This should tell you something. ;-)
3) My secondary is Ice Breaker throughout. Greatest shotgun in The Abyss.

When the PS4 clan ran Crota Flawless there were quite a few times that people had their falls broken by another guardian. I found that if I tried to soften my landing by hitting jump shortly before I hit that I would actually die MORE OFTEN than if I just left my controller alone.

While editing the video, I was wondering if the speed boost on MIDA Multitool caused us to hit the ground with greater force. Next time I'll see if turning it off for the jump makes a difference.

The game isn't going to land you on top of someone's position, so just don't run around until everybody lands.

You would think that might be the case, but it's not. The game definitely dropped us on top of each other more than once. See the very first drop; I don't even have control of my character before breitzen lands on my head and sails into the chasm.
