I have to get this off my chest and I figured there was no better way then to share it with my fellow dads.
My good friend (who is also a dad) and I set off to attempt our first nightfall strike. This week's strike seemed to be a little bit easier than past ones, so we watched some YouTube videos and figured we'd give it a go.
We don't exactly have the best gear, but things were going well, we were just going slow and making sure everything was as predictable as possible. I ran defender Titan so I could bubble rez if needed and tried to play a bit more cautious than my buddy. It turned out to be a great idea because I had to rez him a few times.
We finally make it to the final boss and things are going well, then the failure noob moment happened when the boss is at around half health. I had been using ammo synths the whole strike when it wasn't safe to run around and grab ammo. We had killed a wave of mobs and Sepiks was just firing away from a distance. I figured it would be a good time to do an ammo run, I informed my buddy and out I ran. Once I reach the middle (top level), Sepiks teleports to the middle himself and one shots me... My buddy sees me go down and immediately runs out to try to rez only to be one shot himself. After a bit of cussing at an hour down the drain, we then laughed, called each other noobs and ran the weekly heroic strike to make ourselves feel better.
Maybe we'll try again this weekend, if our wives let us, haha.
Thanks for reading!
TL:DR - my buddy and I are noobs and fail at nightfall
Edit: Thank you all for encouragement and helpful hints and tricks! This makes me want to go home and run the strike right now, haha. Dang these responsibilities :)
