    Ammo is a nightmare when it comes to Calus. It got so bad I had nothing to kill him with at all. I ended up having to fist him.

    Yeah, remember when I said 'Don't start this yet.... Cal, Culh... when we are shooting Psions I will take out the one on the *PING*'

    Generic - "Sounds like you had your strategy, lets go.".

    Thats when we were discussing strat....:mad:

    Stormcaller warlocks with arc soul are handy for the skull team and the dps phases, we were hitting high 60's easy enough most times and decent damage then as well. Extra little bit when people are reloading is always handy.

    Great little yoke that arc soul

    Everyone crouched behind a titan rally barricade works well too, reduces the spread of the skulls and eliminates reload time.

    This is worth a watch tbh for 2 main reasons.

    1) I've always found watching Slayerages limited fireteam videos handy cause they make it really easy to see the mechanics and the comms are usually really clear

    2) It shows some very swift and effective Crystal running

    Also, this...

    Yu-Gi- Oh Shadow Realm floor map

    Green spots are safe, red ones are either ramp (R) or holes (H). Starting from the bottom to the top.

    DO YOU EVEN MS EXCEL?!?!?!. Notice the slightly darker lines

    Also, general pro tip from watching tonnes and tonnes of YT vids: Somehow get the Raid Rocket Launcher or another one with Clusterbombs

    I did not notice the slightly darker lines, no.

    Have the raid rocket launcher but no decent level on to put in to it. Highest I can get it is 289 by sacrifcing Wordiff Coil plus putting a mod into it.

    Whats the use case for it? Merciless or Sword (?) vs Dogs. Merciless vs Bathers. No need in Gauntlet - is it just for shield damage vs Calus? Can't imagine it doing effecient DPS vs Calus when not dealing with shield

    Dogs and Calus damage, especially when combo'd with Rally Barricade

    Basically all the 1-cycle, limited man runs, 1-minute runs etc etc all seem to be using it

    Examples below:

    Given the Gauntlet and Baths can be done by basically any class.
    Whats the optimum Raid comp for the boss?
    I'm thinking 2x2x2 more or less, but with a slight preference to Warlocks for their Rifts

    Team Teleport:
    1x Warlock with Healing Rift for during the Clappy Shield
    1x Gunslinger Hunter with Celestial Nighthawk from dropping the Clappy Shield on command
    1x Roaming Super (any class I guess?) - if it's another Warlock, can drop empowering rift during DPS

    Team Suck:
    1x Stormcaller Warlock with shooty orbs and healing for skulls
    1x Titan with Rally Baricade for reloading
    1x Rally Barricade/Empowering Rift for DPS & Nova Bomb to throw at boss/Golden Gun with CN for Boss Damage

    You need 1 titan for the barricade when shooting the skulls too to make sure you get more quicker instead of losing some when reloading :D

    Whatever. I don't have a Titan. You know what I mean :D
    Flashbacks to Sniper calling it "Ward of Dawn" in VoG.... I was like "Is that the damage bubble?, yeah, use that thing"

    Would AoE grendades work for the skulls, like when you throw one at a door as the enemies come out?

    I threw down a few nades but didnt notice them taking out skulls so not 100% on that, however the tall titan shield will also kill them if the skulls float through it.

    Doubt it but it would make it seriously handy.

    Sorry I should have said 1 titan needs to have the barricade for the plates aswell and throw it down on plate 2/3.
