Hit the nail on the head. When trying to solo something in the Forge after waiting for no one to show up it gets frustrating when you get shut down by a rogue exploding shank or Captain punch. The only thing I think you left out is the fact that in Court of Oryx, if you failed an activity it refunded you the token so you could try again. The Forge does not. So after an impossible timer to come back to the activity runs out (costing you the Siva Offering AND the Splicer Key you used to try to get back) you cry. The Forge could be great. Really great. It needs a spawn point, stackable offerings (even one of each damn type), a longer "Retry" timer, and the refundable option would be excellent. On a side note, I'd love for a place to either turn in all the Court tokens or burn them for rep. Now they just sit there because I know the minute I destroy them Bungie will give us a method to use them.
