  • Mission Statement

    To put it quite simply- WE ROCK. Have you ever noticed how you login to play a multiplayer game and almost immediately your enjoyment is destroyed by some petulant twit who seems to have nothing better to do than try and tick off you and everyone else playing the game? Annoying, isn't it? That is the antithesis of what the DoD ArchAngels are about. We are a group of like-minded individuals with families and careers who like to get together and regulate the Darkness like nobody's business. We like to kick butt and chew bubblegum, but we're usually all out of bubblegum. This is the type of group where your sense of humor and class will get you a whole lot farther than your k/d ratio. If any of this sounds appealing to you, by all means, let your freak flag fly and join up! I promise you will not regret it. Happy hunting!

Rep farming

Hey all, I have stumbled upon a great rep farming video. I'm interested to give it a shot if anyone else wants to farm your preferred faction rep, works for everything except crucible. so video is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kr41CIlL7Tc&feature=youtu.be All credits go to nJoi who made it. This will take some coordination and may be a little slow at first compared to their supposed 800+ rep/hour. But if we get a team together or a few teams if there's more than enough for 1, this should go smooth once we settle in. Here's a breakdown from bm_nJoi off Reddit if you don't want to watch the vid. 1. [b]3 Man Fireteam[/b], Split Cosmodrome into 3 parts, each member takes a location - The Skywatch, the Mothyards/Steppes, The Divide/Rocketyard - Stay spread out to be able to cover as much area per player as possible, overlapping potential objective areas is potential time lost 2. VIP's spawn in [b]Rocketyard, Skywatch, and the Steppes[/b] by spawn - [b]never abandon VIP or Kill Everything patrols[/b]. Others can be abandoned if nobody is near the objective. The spawn of the patrol isn't always near the actual VIP, so communicate who actually gets the kill. 3. [b]Farm patrols vigorously[/b]. Triangulate position of objectives and have one member complete objective as the others farm their respective areas (Skywatch farms[b] Loot Cave[/b], Rocketyard [b]farms chests[/b], Mothyard farms [b]Spinmetal[/b]). Abandoning patrols is okay, but try to minimize as it is time lost farming - only abandon stubborn ones or ones that nobody is close to quickly do and they can be replaced. 4. Allow players to do nearby [b]Public Events[/b] if you need marks. Pay attention to the number of other players doing the events, because soloing them slowly can cut your numbers in a big way. 5. Learn to [b]communicate[/b] very well to improve rep/hour numbers, because good communication allows you to locate objectives quickly and to know when to abandon a patrol for a more accessible one that is readily available. Most notably, communicate when to go for objectives and when to be farming per member. Pay attention to what types are near you even when you're not going to be picking it up first, so that you can know to replace a stubborn patrol quickly with the easier one you have nearby. 6. If you really want to solo, farm VIP spawns by the spawn point into the Cosmodrome at the Steppes. It's to the left of the basement with the 3 level 18 Hive Majors (used to kill everyone in beta). Watch the video it explains this much better! :P So thats my bit, post if you're interested, I hope to be on tomorrow night (sept 23) @ 8:00 MST or so, thats about 10:00 CST I think... Cheers!

  • Sorry I didn't get in touch with you last night Flyboy. Got wrapped up with the queens wrath quests. Once this is over we can look into the rep farming, or if I see you on and I am free I'll send you a message! With the short time frame for the event I'd like to get in what I can while I can however.

    • samaraiS and I did a modified version of this on Monday night and it was EPIC. Patrols were completed in less than 30 seconds (for some), and the loot/engrams we collected were pretty great. Can't wait to try this again on Earth this time.

      • That is AWESOME!!! I'd love to get a fireteam doing that. I'll try to get on around that time if I can. Cypher, what's your PSN ID? And is this on PS4 or PS3? PSN ID: flyboydrury09
