New Strike Playlists - Mammoth and Dragon

Ok soon we will be getting The Dark Below and moving up to lvl 32. But there are a few issues with new level caps. Namely in this game two big issues, one of which is the amount of content that is trivialized at the new "end-game." Now you may be saying to yourselves, "WTF are you talking about Effin?" Well, I'm talking about the Vanguard Strike playlists and how those two new levels are going to make Strikes in Tiger playlists to become trivial, to the point that 31+ characters are going to be able to walk through them like Daily Missions since they are capped at lvl 24 anyway. I propose two NEW Playlists which will be set at lvls 26 and 30. What makes them new? Modifiers, btw we need more new Modifiers Bungie. The modifiers would be random and would create a more dynamic approach to the Strikes. Forcing players to think about their loadouts and adding a bit of challenge. Of course there would have to be a risk/reward evaluation and it would be nice if they added the possibility of acquiring Acendant Mats and Exotic Shards to the lvl 30 Dragon Strike playlists I am proposing. Thoughts? Comments? Ideas? EDIT - It seems I jumped the gun, Bungie is adding higher level strikes. One thing I would like to mention is the random modifier idea where starting at the 24 Tiger playlist, every 2 levels of difficulty add one modifier. I believe this would add a bit more life to the boring strike grinds

  • Also, I think there should be a 4-6 man level 30 strike playlist.

    • I really like this idea, this is great, although it would be nice to have a 28 one as well, especially as nightfall is gonna be lvl 30

    • It seems that random modifiers in the strike playlists is something a good amount of players would enjoy. Let's see if we can bring this idea to Bunige's attention.

    • I fully support this idea. Randomized modifiers would make the strikes much more challenging. Right now they are quite boring.

    • I just hope they add random modifiers then there would more reasons to have fully maxed weapons of different elements and add more dynamic I love the sounds of that idea

        • There's going to be a beefed up level 28 strike playlist in the DLC. Maybe another one higher, though I doubt it. Modifiers would be cool for the playlists but the rewards couldn't be too great. Otherwise they miss out on a lot of the traffic looking to do the nightfall/weekly on Tuesday.

        • The DLC was confirmed to contain higher strike difficulties due to the leak.

          If you are overleveled for the content the game scales you down (Or the content up I guess) to even out the field. I believe regardless if you were 6 levels over the content you would really only deal/receive damage as though you were 2 levels above. Hence why level 30's can still die when selecting the level 8 earth strike, and why you can't one shot all the yellow bars in that strike. Edit: Granted, new modifiers and such could be useful. Though keep in mind the only change in exp you'll see is for the end. a level 2 dreg and a level 24 dreg still give the same exp for kill.

          • I like the ideas in general. The random modifiers could create variety for those folks who have exhausted the end game. I'd about awards, but it's a good idea.

          • I dont oppose ideas, but theres a long line of them that I doubt Bungie will ever get to or listen to.
