    At 365 your only way to level any higher is very random drops of exotics. Legendaries stop decrypting at 365 (until the tues patch) so you are limited to doing the raid or a random drop from the NF which isn't really worth your time. You MUST do the raid to level up any higher as of right now. I personally hope they don't make it to where anyone can level to 400 without doing end game content. That "to me" is what separates the casual player to the player that will put forth the effort to do what it takes to get the most out of the game. Someone that can just hit 400 by fucking around picking up drops doesn't appeal to me at all. That is just my opinion. Same thing with every MMO I've ever played. To get the best gear you had to do the end game content. Randoms that just ran around questing were locked out of that content until they decided to do it. That's the way "I" think it should be in this game.

    That is the reason I run Trails each weekend. I want all the Trials gear and emblem. That is by far the hardest thing to do in the game. Yes I am that vain that I will stand in the tower with all my Trials gear and the Outbreak Prime because others will look and ask how to get it? It is the hardest shit to get in the game and I've put forth the effort to get it. Others that used to be 335 with no end game armor / weapons or trials armor / weapons just got there the easy way. If that sounds elitist that's because it is. I'm willing to put forth the effort that others are not therefore they should not be allowed the same armor / weapons / stats that I am allowed. Just my opinion.

    Im not looking to run HM at all for my 1st time through WotM. No way am I that dumb. Ill run it twice on normal just to get the Outbreak Prime and wont go near HM until im in the 400 cap like the suggestions say. (Or if I stall out) which I dont think will happen post update.

    What i was saying is that I didnt run it cause purples will drop up to 385 after Tuesday and im progressing well right now without the raid by running strikes for keys and opening the chests after.

    The reason why Im focused on LL is everyone on .io for the XB1 is wanting 375+ for Aksis 2.0.

    Most of us arent pro status like you and dont have a constant supply of good pro status raiders like you.
    So i figure im better off waiting until next weekend to run it.

    I suppose I'm glad I'm not on Xbox. We defeated Akis sub 375

    I know people who have on XB1, but again. You have a solid group of people that you play with on a regular basis. My group of people wasn't even available this weekend and the one that was, didnt want to touch the raid.

    Im in no hurry and im at the point now where the Heroic SIVA strikes are fun. After Tuesday they will be hard again but at least im super close to 380 now and have no doubt after I decrypt the large pile of legendaries in my vault Tuesday night, I will be over 380.

    I run the 320s for keys and exotic wity 3oC. Once i have 2 or 3 keys I go into the SIVA Heroics and Nightfall to pop chests. This method besides ranking faction has worked really well this past week.

    Dude, there's no difference in the player base between Xbox and Playstation. There have been thousands of forum wars about which is better since before they both came out and they each have good and bad points but I've played on both and see no difference in the type of player that plays them. You will always have a wide cross section of players on every system. I'm in 100.io group for adult gamers and that's who I game with. We have regular sherpa runs for people that need help where we'll take 2 or 3 through at a time paired with more experienced players so they get some gear and experience.

    GT?
    I would be very interested and thankful if you can run me and a buddy through perhaps this weekend?

    The guys I know that have done it and willing are in the UK and we always seem to have network issues with them.

    Perhaps Sunday morning if you are west coast?

    If you're interested in signing up just go to Gunslinger Gaming and create an account. Add yourself to the master list for whatever game you play (there's groups for every game on every system) and then join the 100.io group (it's called Gunslingers X1 at the100)

    My GT is BwA Blitz but the best thing to do would be to sign up to the site and jump in a 100.io game. Feel free to add me and we'll try to get something going, but most of the guys I game with arrange games through the 100. I know it seems like I'm flogging that site but most guys will be already committed to games they have scheduled on there.

    i need to get in on it as well. the .io group i was put in seems pretty crappy as far as groupings go. haven't attempted the raid yet, but sitting around 368-369, IIRC.

    It's really not that difficult. The 2 most important components are DPS and communication. A decent exotic sword comes in handy as well, either Raze Lighter or Dark Drinker. I got by with Gally though.
