Find a Team With Communication
If you’ve played Destiny: Rise of Iron’s raid at least once, then you undoubtedly learned that communication is the most important element of the entire Wrath of the Machine raid. You can be powerful, but if only one person messes up, it means failure more often than not in the most important segments of the raid. Knowing where Aksis is teleporting to, communicating dropped Siege Engine parts, and keeping an eye on monitors in the SIVA density room are all very important.
You can help your team out by having a mic or at least being able to follow instructions in hectic moments. Even better is if everyone on your Fireteam is on the same page when it comes to calling things out and covering objectives. While it is possible to complete the raid with complete strangers who refuse to be friendly, it makes a large portion of the entire challenge unnecessarily difficult.
