a tip to get better loot from the raid

I've used this method multiple times and have a high success rate. I just completed the raid as I type this post, and I got the boots, the chest, the helm, plus other shit all in one run. It's simple actually. If you are able to do the hard mode raid, you have a simple advantage. When doing the hard mode raid first instead of doing normal mode then hard mode, you get the normal mode loot from checkpoints and bosses, WITH your hard mode loot. That is a huge difference and I'll explain why. When doing the raid on normal mode you get your rewards pulled from the "normal mode loot pool/table". So if you complete it on hard first instead of normal, you get BOTH loot piles from the hard mode loot pool table. Thus, giving you a better and more efficient chance at getting raid gear or weapons. I haven't been dissatisfied with this method yet. EDIT: I never said that this method is 100% or is a sure fire way. I'm merely pointing out that it gives you better chances to get what you're looking for since both rewards come from the hard mode pool. Don't do hard mode one time then tell me I'm an idiot because you got a ship and energies. Obviously it's still an RNG and will more than likely take over 1 attempt. EDIT 2: I already proved that it pulls your normal mode loot from hard mode loot pool. If you aren't understanding that, or comprehending HOW that can be helpful for you, then don't worry about it. Pretend you didn't even read this. And don't wonder why I didn't reply to you. EDIT 3: stop asking me to explain why you only get ships and energies from atheon. This method is for the ENTIRE raid run. I'm talking about all the chests, all the checkpoints. Not for you weak ass atheon farmers. If you want something other than a ship and materials, do the whole raid. Please comment and post if this method works for you and let myself and others know.
