I'm down to partner up with anyone doing it on the Xbox One. Level 30 Hunter CryingFreemanYo

What time? I have a group looking to fill out two slots for an Xbox One raid shortly after everything goes live.

Open invite for anyone who is level 30, by the way. PM here or, better yet, Xbox Live message Eric WK.

Figured this might help some people who are preparing for tomorrow's DLC drop - here's a video on everything you should be doing to get ready for The Dark Below:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAIThkw2cng

The narrator of the vid claims 4 pieces of new vendor gear will get you to 30, while 3 pieces+1 exotic will get you to 31. I previously heard 4 pieces of vendor gear will get you to 31 (as opposed to 3+exotic)

Do we know which is accurate?

I really want to try this at 4 AM EST. Any other groups forming besides ComputerMK's?

For people that are busy :p
I normally roll with my raid group at 4 am EST for 3x hard, weekly and nightfall
Looking for a group in EST for the afternoon Wednesday or Thursday. 3 level 30s, maxed out weapons everywhere! But no ghorn :(

I'll also be looking for/organizing a group to go in either tomorrow night or wednesday. Most likely Wednesday as Ill be trying to get nightfalls finished first...

Have you transferred/equipped all your useful gear to your main/raid character?

I cant listen at the moment but can anyone do a quick summary? What should i be doing to get ready?

Effectively - make sure you're at your glimmer cap, you're going to need money. Also, if you get any special packages in the post from vanguard/crucible quartermasters, don't open them till Tuesday (when the DLC drops) and the same goes for handing in exotic bounties.

Aside from that, stockpile Black Wax Idols, you'll need them as a new currency.

The narrator of the vid claims 4 pieces of new vendor gear will get you to 30, while 3 pieces+1 exotic will get you to 31. I previously heard 4 pieces of vendor gear will get you to 31 (as opposed to 3+exotic)

Do we know which is accurate?

My mistake, I can confirm 4 pieces will get you level 31. The new Vanguard/Crucible gear has 33 light per piece, and you need a total of 131 light to be 31 (33x4 = 132). But for 32 you WILL need Raid gear.

Man I think I just screwed up big I finally this morning got crucible rank 2 and enough to buy a legendary arm and chest piece so I did. I only went from lvl 24 to 25 sadly. Now I see that in a video on this page I should of waited to buy those purple pieces until tomorrow and I'd be instantly at lvl 30. Can I dismantle them and rebuy them tomorrow or am I stuck?

dismantling them not gonna refund you the marks you used to buy them so yea, you're screwed until you can afford the marks for the armor again.

Best of luck to all the GAFfers going in minute one! Hopefully one of you you can stick it to Primeguard and give GAF the world's first trophy. Even playing field now.

Won't be checking any streams or anything since I wanna go in blind on friday, but do hope to see some progress updates in this thread.
