"Raid Academy" VOG & CE on Xbox 360

[b]If you want to know how to participate, please read the FULL details below.[/b] Hey everyone, I am looking to help out new raiders or people who are having trouble finding groups. I'm tired of people not accepting others for the following: 1. Being too young. 2. Being under level 28 for normal, 29 for hard, etc. 3. Never having done the raid. Here's the deal. I am looking for people who have never done the raid or people who have been denied into the raid because they are under 28. If you are at least 26 (for normal VOG) or 29 (for hard VOG, normal CE, etc.), preferably have a mic, and are willing to take directions, I am looking to help out. This is more of a training thing, so if you are just looking for another completion, try finding one of the other groups. This is to teach proper raid techniques (no pushing off bosses or using class exploits) to newer players or people who just want to get a different perspective on how to do the raid. On top of running full tutorial raids, I also run specialized technique training. This includes sessions that specifically let you practice with all raid relics, soloing portals in VOG, handling inside/outside of portals on Atheon, successfully running lanterns on CE, etc. These will vary as they come up, but details will always be provided and instructors will demonstrate before you do it so you can see it being done. These will be in a calm environment with the sole purpose of letting you become comfortable with the more specialized "positions" in the raids. Anytime I do a tutorial raid or specialized practice session, I will first invite anyone who sent me a message on Xbox Live (GT: Shwartznwalder). I am not always available, so it's best to send me a message on XBL. I'll reply letting you know I got the message and that I will save your message to invite you next time I'm doing a session. I will then make a post on this thread stating what type of session I will be doing after I send invites out to all people who message me on XBL, and anyone who sees it that meets the qualifications from earlier in this thread can join. It will be a first come first serve, but I generally do several in a row, so it's usually just a matter of waiting a little while to get in on the next one. If you don't need a tutorial raid, but like the idea of what we're doing (I normally pull in a helper or two, usually people I met from this very thread), leave a message on this thread and a like. Keeping it at the top will help other players who need it find it.

  • Shwartznwalder was awesome. He taught the entire VOG raid step by step to us newbies. He had a lot of patience with us and so did his friends. I recommend him to all the newbs who have never been in the VOG before. I would love to do it with him again if he has spots to learn the relic mechanics next time. When he is teaching, he wants to show you how to do it the real way. No cheesing!! He also takes you through all the loot locations. If you've never done the raid and are at least level 26, send him a XBL message on 360 when he starts one of those tutorials. He does both VOG and CE tutorials on easy mode. Thanks again Shwarznwalder. Your time was much appreciated. Finished a tutorial VOG in less than 2 hours!!

      Alright, I'm starting up a VOG tutorial raid. I have 1 spot available, so send me a message on XBL for an invite. As always, these are designed to teach mechanics. If you are just looking for another completion or to be carried, I'd suggest looking for a different group.

            Awesome. I've been wanting to learn mechanics of the relic (besides quizzing myself from Reddit VOG guides in iBook) and just be a more effective player to start doing hard raids. Edit: Unfortunately, it looks like you play when I can't. I'm Central Time Zone and play after 10 pm most nights. It's all good, though. You are providing a needed service to my fellow raid noobs. I have a friend who can play during the day and I'll forward this info to him. Thanks for your work.

            • Did my first VOG raid last night led by Shwartznwalder, accompanied by his friends, and another new raider. They were great, walked us through all the mechanics of the raid, and were very patient, especially with my "jumping problem." LOL Many thanks, it was a lot of fun, and I hope to raid with them again!

              • Just finished my first raid with Schwartz and some of his team with one other newcomer. Very informative and easy to understand each section with the instructions given. Would recommend anyone wishing to try the vog for the first time to message Schwartz on xbox and give it a try. Thanks guys I got some cool weapons too!

                                Alright guys, I'm running some tutorial raids, starting with CE. I have 1 spot available. Send me a message on XBL for an invite. As always, this is a tutorial and there is a lot of explanation. If you are looking for a run through is recommend finding another group. This is designed to teach mechanics and proper raid techniques.
