I still get a chuckle out of the fact that we spent hours getting through the Gorgon maze that first time, but now get through it in less than a minute :p

On try 6.

True, but it's usually the first "real" attempt after someone mentions that we need to quit screwing around so we can move on :p

Playing a Coop Night Nightfall with Kermit and Stabbim and being shocked by Kermit's immediate death at the first doorway. I got a good chuckle out of that one.

I should guess that if I were remembered for one thing ... ;)

I've heard stories about your adventures with bluerunner for years, but it's been a pleasure getting to know you and playing with you, red.

EDIT: One of my favorite memories with you was getting into the Cosmodrome Breach area back when it was locked. Fun times.

Bluerunner shoulder charging the rando off of A on Shores of Time. The video is around the forum somewhere. I was in that game nearby A at the time if I recall correctly.

The game just wouldn't be the same without you guys though. Most of my best experiences included DBOers and Destiny just wouldn't be as good of a game without y'all.

I'm glad you finally joined us. You and I need to run some Trials this fall.

After that we looked up how to do it and were like "oh, dur, invisibility."

Killing bladedancers, titan strikers, bubble bros, gunslingers and sunsingers:)

And those few moments in Trials where I prove that I can really play.

Oh and watching Beorn, Korny, and DPW roll to the lighthouse on Twitch.

was week 2 and had arc burn. currently the #1 most memorable video game hour of my life (i'm sure i've forgotten some others... i'm old).

It was definitely not meant to glorify the old method of material farming.

Our Swordsman was a veteran. His timing impeccable, he swung his stolen sword into Crota's hide once, twice, three times, four. And again. And again. Ogres slain, Crota was done for. Two more swings would sever his connection to this underworld plane and banish him for all eternity.

And then tradgedy struck.

Wedged between a wall of Thrall and one of Crota's generals, our swordsman knew his end was nigh. His rifle empty, he primed a grenade and ensured he took his foe with him. We quickly dispatched the Oversoul, but we knew - without our Swordsman we would surely fail in our mission.

"Someone grab the bloody sword", came a disembodied cry. Our fearless leader, still supporting us from beyond the veil.

I was already there, delusions of grandeur filling my head. Maybe I would save the day. But Crota had already started to move, shooting across from the right to end our existence.

"Tell me when", I called as Machine Gun fire chattered into life around me.

"Tell me when. Tell me when"

Our timing was off. Crota was already kneeling when the signal came.

Five voices cried in unison - "Go!"

I leapt across the gap, but in my panic had come up short. I swung the sword with all my might, and the momentum closed the distance. In a flash I was upon him. Vengeance for my friends who had died in the pit. Vengeance for the Guardians who failed to stop him on the moon. Vengeance for Eris and her fireteam. Vengeance for our Swordsman.

With a rumble, Crota was gone. I had done the impossible. I had slain a god.

Are you insane?

... no?

• When you still had to farm materials, I went to Anchor of Light on the moon and this random guardian was there too, we spent almost 45 minutes zooming around, finding chests, finding helium, waving and dancing to each other to let each other know we found something. Completely cooperatively but with no verbal communication. At the time materials were precious and I gathered more in that session than I had for weeks before hand.

Are you insane?

In the midst of all the excitement over The Taken King, I thought it would be fun to take a look back at our first year with Destiny and pick our favorite or most memorable moments:

1. The first time that I used the Nova Bomb during the Alpha, I knew that I was a Warlock 4 Lyfe:

2. The first time that I outwitted a Bladedancer.

3. Our Flawless Raider practice nights that culminated in a tense, buggy showdown with Atheon.

4. Running the Crota Raid blindly, figuring out each step as we went, starting with an epic run through the darkness (dat final stand on the plate before we learned about the cheese rocks).

5. Using the pre-weapon-tuning Hawkmoon, and getting stuff like this 16.0 K/D. Also, can't find the video for it, but acquiring the Hawkmoon by dropping into Cody's Nightfall in the last seconds was memorable, as was his reaction. :P

6. Successfully killing Crota on Hard after hours and hours of trying (with a prototype strategy that would soon become the standard).

7. The Comeback.
Us: 15,920
Them: 19,025
FORTH EORLINGAS!

8. Our very first match in Trials :P

9. Dropping Skolas in one minute after bashing our heads against the wall for hours.

10. Pulling off an epic play, only to get shut down by Shaxx...
