(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This is written by me from what me and my raid teams have done. We have not beaten Crota so I don't have any tips for that part but I know how it is done.


Forming the bridge: This is a basic concept you have to do at the very beginning and for the next two parts. You just stand in the ring for a designated amount of time and to form it.

To start the Raid you need to form the first bridge and jump in the hole.



Part 1: Find your way through the darkness.

You can follow my "cheesing" way if you want to call it that or a "glitch" found here: You must login or register to view this content.


To beat it legitly everyone needs to stay in a semi-tight group and follow each light. There will be a Darkness indicator on your left, the higher the number the slower you go. To "cleans" your self you have to stay near each lamp for a designated amount of time until your "Darkness" is very low or gone.

You will want to follow each one until you reach the last one which is near a ring where you have to activate the ring for the bridge. Be careful traveling between each light, there are holes you can fall in and die.

You want to try and get the full team to the bridge ring, or at least 5. If two people go down just wipe.

When you are at the ring you will have to hold it until the bridge has formed. You will have to fight thralls, knights, and ogres. Once the bridged is formed and you start to cross it you will begin to be cleansed of your darkness and you just keep running into the light at the end of the tunnel.

TIPS: Hunters with cloaking abilities are good for this part and part 2.
Just cloak and stand in the bridge ring.
Also warlocks with self resurrect are good at the bridge incase they go down.
You also need your agility up to make this part easier.



Part 2: The swordbearers.

There is a bridge activation ring on each end of the bridge. When the ring is activated the two "totems" we shall call them need to be defended on the side the ring is captured. DO NOT CAPTURE BOTH AT ONCE! To defend the totems all you have to do is stay in the little ring under it with the light. If the light turns red you aren't on it and if you stay off to long it wipes your whole team.

The swordbearers will come soon after the bridge ring is captured. You need the sword to cross the bridge, if you dont have it you will die. Once you are across with the sword you have to kill a blue knight (each time a swordbearer is killed a new knight spawns and it will go up to 3 being there if you dont kill them.) THE ONLY THING THAT WILL DAMAGE A BLUE KNIGHT IS THE SWORD!

Once 3 people cross everyone still on the first side get off of your 3 "spots" and run back up to where you first spawn. the opposite side of the bridge is the same concept as the first but instead of loosing team mates from the first side you will gain them on the second.

When the 3 people up top at the "spawn" have killed the swordbearer the closest person needs to grab it and run to the other side, but make sure your friends have there side bridge ring captured. Then repeat until all are over.

After you are all over you will get off the bridge ring and 3 people stay near each totem. You will have to kill enemies until ogres spawn. Once ogres spawn, those are the enemies you need to kill. Once both of them are dead that part is over. You may need to kill additional enemies to make it easier.

TIPS:Me and my team beat it with 4 people over there, once 4 people were across (try for 5 if you can) the other person(s) on the spawn side to to kill themselves. This will register as all of you across the bridge and the enemies before the ogres will start spawning.



Part 2.5: Thralls/Shriekers

There is a never ending spawn of enemies and you have to kill and push at the same time, kill the shrieker and the next portion is opened. Then drop through the hole and done.

TIPS: There is a chest but this has to be done FAST! Kill everything fast then run to the whole, across the hole a chest should be spawned in an open door. If the door is closed you did it to slow. You have to bust balls to get in that door before it shuts (atleast 1.) Once someone is in there it will eventually open back up and everyone can get in.



Part 3: Wizards/Shriekers

For this part you will want to go to a side, for now we will say the right. Take out the 2 knights at the top of the stairs kill a few additional enemies then make your way up the stair case to the right and take out the knight up there. From there walk in the room and a which will come out with other enemies. Kill the wizard then a shrieker will spawn and kill it. More adds do spawn so you will need to kill some of them too. Then make your way to the other room on the opposite side and do the same thing there but kill more knights as you progress.

Once you kill both wizards and shriekers the shard room will open which is where the 3rd which spawns. If you do this to slowly a 30 second timer will pop up and at the end of the timer it will wipe you. You want to kill the 3rd which by the end of the timer. Then you guys can run out and pick off some adds just to be safe and everyone needs to stand close the the shard.

Will update on Crota when I get the chance.
