Destiny 2 players slam \u201cEager Edgelords\u201d for ruining Crota\u2019s End BungieDestine 2 players have become frustrated by Guardians using Eager Edge during Crota\u2019s End to try and speedrun the opening Lamps encounter throwing the raid for their team. Crota\u2019s End has proven popular since its arrival with many praising its difficulty and fun rework of a Destiny classic. Although the final boss plays a big part in that difficulty it\u2019s not the section that Guardians are having difficulty completing. Instead, it\u2019s The Abyss encounter \u2013 often called Lamps \u2013 which is causing problems. The premise is that the raid team is dropped into a dark area and needs to traverse between these lamps to clear their Weight of Darkness debuff. However, the lamps explode after just a few seconds so it\u2019s important to stick together, but not everyone in Destiny 2 is a team player opting instead to rely on solo movement techs to rush ahead. Destiny 2 Crota\u2019s End encounter ruined by Eager Edge sweats A frustrated Destiny 2 player posted on Reddit expressing their irritation claiming \u201c\u2018Wannabe sweats are making Lamps the hardest Crota encounter.\u201d The post elaborated: \u201cCould really do with not having to fight against Eager Edge speedrunners leaving everyone behind and refusing to communicate then acting like everyone else is the problem after they Eager Edge into a hole or die from holding the chalice when they\u2019re the only one three lamps ahead.\u201d \u201cGot no qualms with giving the speedrun strat a few tries if everyone\u2019s on the same page about it. Got a lot of qualms with that one Eager Edgelord who doesn\u2019t seem to understand that you can\u2019t actually solo the encounter,\u201d the top-voted reply responded. Another like-minded player replied: \u201cThe problem is that those players are just stupid and doesn\u2019t understand the speedruns they watch. Speedrunners (or any sweat trying to go slightly faster) would understand the encounter mechanics and would know that simply running forward alone is worthless.\u201d Others criticized how these speedrunners do more damage than good: \u201cPeople will take an hour trying to do the \u2018fast\u2019 way, even though they could slow down and get it done in 10 [minutes].\u201d Not everyone agreed though: \u201cI\u2019m surprised that these comments would have you believe that absolutely nobody is getting Eager Edge to work. Sure some people fall into holes, but like 75% of the time we\u2019ll still get it on the first try and it\u2019s much faster than waiting at every lamp.\u201d Eager Edge is a mobility perk exclusive to the 30th Anniversary swords that lets Destiny 2 players launch forward after swinging. It is often used in speedrunning strategies to skip long sections but can be problematic if used incorrectly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
