i helped 70 guardians (XB1) get there first spindle and it was a blast and if you are still in need of a black spindle i will post a link to my recruitment post for next time around.
i thought i add my first time soloing it video, i was asked a few times if i soloed it so i thought i put the video up :) (i dont have a recorder to record the whole thing sadly but it shows how little time i had left)

how many times did you guys run it? and did you get yours for the first time?
till next time guardians :)
Edit: black spindle strategy that works 100% (this is meant to work for non exotic sword users, low lights and new players)
Step 1: when you go in the room announce that you only kill the taken and blights first. (this is wave 1 with 2 phalex)
Step 2: damage the boss intill you hear blights forming then stop shooting him immediately.
Step 3: kill 2nd wave of taken (blights first) This is the knight wave (4 taken Knights flame shields)
Step 4: damage the boss intill you hear the blights forming then stop shooting him immediately.
Step 5: kill the 3rd wave of taken. (blights first)This is the centurion wave. ( 4 taken centurions with arc shields)
Step 6: damage the boss intill you hear the final wave of blights forming then stop shooting him immediately (you don't have to as there is no more waves but it makes it easier)
Step 7: kill the 4th and final wave of taken (blights first) This is the captain wave (4 taken captains with flame shields)
Step 8: Kill the main boss and you are done (you should have time to spare everytime depending on how fast you clear the other rooms)
I hope this helps all others I don't have time to help and or there not on Xbox 1 :)

Myself and a clan mate got the spindle on our 1st ever try, a dedender titan with dark drinker and i was a stormcaller. We got to the boss with around 6 mins to go, we killed the boss 1st and THEN we focussed on blights. Truth, stormtrance and darkdrinker took care of the blights pretty quick and we finished with just under a minute to spare. The stability isnt great... but also havent used in the raid yet. Its on my warlock.
