    Think I am looking forward to the Oryx raid the least - though I do really like the look of the Oryx raid gear. None of the Kings Fall primaries are guns I like, elemental damage is going to do little to up the desire factor for me.

    I do like Kings Fall as a raid, but the weapons don't have the same allure as the other raid weapons. Also, not ToM nerf will be felt a hole lot more now we won;t be massively over leveled.

    I am looking forward to elemental Wrath weapons though - big fan of all the Wrath primaries.

    I'm looking forward to finally finishing a few quests that were about, or related to KF.
    Also, actually finishing it. I've only ran it once and we got as far as Oryx but didn't manage to kill him.

    Fairly sure I remember most of what to do but there'll be questions anyway, more of a recap I'd say, just to make sure I remembered correctly.

    Yeah, not fussed about KF Gear, especially since it can already be ascended to LL400 if you have it.
    The Boots and Pulse and Machine Gun being the main ones really.
    I can't see myself being hype about getting any gear really.
    Meanwhile, it will be nice to get 3 AoT Ornaments per raid run cause there' 3 challenges.
    9 more Ornaments will have my guys looking tasty with the gear
    What with it being such a long, complex and tight Raid might just get the Warpriest Challenge CP on all 3 chars, doing the Totems at LL390 will be zero craic
    I'd say a Lot of LFG and inexperienced people will struggle with the mechanics of Golg and Oryx themselves when they have to account for not being 2-3 shot by mobs that they could tank before overlevelled (Oryx Plate 1 Snipers/Tomb Ship/Acolytes Eyes combo anyone?)

    Kings fall is my favourite raid, mainly because it was my first proper main raiding experience with everyone and I know it oh so so well so I am really looking forward to it this time around. ToM will be fine with a blessings will ya stop :)

    Kings Fall is a fine raid, by my god is a time sink, especially with 3 challenges and at a relevant LL. You'll see very little traction in trying to get a group at 10:30pm etc

    There's not much traction there anyway. :D

    Thats the nerf - The blessings effect goes immediately once your proc the ToM perk. So no, it won't be fine with a blessings!

    It will be of good use, still, vs the sisters and vs Oryx - but the Ogre's are going to need more work.

    With Iron Banner on this week too - and part of the AoT book - there is going to be more of a pull away from the Raid which we didn't have the last weeks.

    Thing is, Kings Fall was the only relevant raid for like a year so it was done to death too and doesn't have that nostalgic pull like VoG and CE.

    Would have made more sense to hold IB for another week.

    This a new neft or the same nerf from before RoI dropped? Because i remember it working fine when they nerfed it back then to keep healed etc.

    Sure then it would be just going up vs Wrath - same thing.

    They'd need to have held it off for two weeks so it goes up vs Crota second time around.

    Will be interesting to see if there are any KF changes - such as to make the totems section quicker a la the oracles in VoG.

    The Totems are the worst

    If you have the Jade Rabbit, it is a huge help at the Totems cause of the constant ammo and it can (or at least could) 1 shot Acolytes making the whole experience less hairy as the mobs won't stack up as bad

    And when you get to Oryx, please for the love of christ use a good sniper on the Shade. It absolutely wrecks him if you pop a few 1KYS (or similar) shots into his fat head

    Harrowed Quiliams Terminus is a must pick for the whole raid

    Black Spindle for Warpriest and Golgoroth (Sleeper as your exotic if you dont have BS)

    Ideally bring 2 of each class right off the bat, makes life much easier in the long run

    Chaos Dogma and Ex Machina are also gonna be good choices.

    Smite of Merain is a fine pulse rifle, especially with firefly on it. An adept version would be greatly accepted.

    Yep - thats the only one that got much use, imo. Exotic version has firefly, which is nice!

    Wrath is still relatively new. Less of a decision to choose between the 2 imho.

    Won't the crota weapons be useful in Kings fall now esp. for the totems.

    Wrath has good weapons AND good armour. Kings fall had neither bar the 3 pieces i mentioned earlier
