I wanna get every ones take on this. Personally I like the VOD Raid However a few things i did not like
1. The raid only had 2 Boss Fights they could have easily made it 3 or 4 Fights i prefer boss fights over encounters
2. The last Boss Design was nice something different we havent seen however the CareTaker was another Orge Reskin just like Golgoroth from Taken King and Morgeth from Last Wish at this point Bungie needs to bring something new to the table already. Tired of reskins with diff colors.
3. Maybe a lil less symbols to remember 28 is a bit harsh make this a bit reasonable i want to have fun in the raid and not have to think so damn much while having fun
What's everybody's thoughts on VOD and future raid and boss designs? More Encounters or More Boss Fights?

Edited by RageMonster2569: 3/21/2022 5:13:32 PMI finally got around to doing Vow, and it was the first time I did it. I was add clear first encounter and clutched up as runner on last obelisk when everyone else was on other side of the map, was runner in caretaker, splitter in Rhulk and shield bearer in the 3rd encounter. I absolutely loved the raid. Making a mistake while running during caretaker didn’t wipe us and I even got to save the obelisk encounter which was awesome. Rhulk curb stomped me a total of 23 times, and I fell to my death due to hitting my head 6 times and died to adds like 3 times. This was as good as my first deep stone completion, and it felt like a perfect raid to me. I got to use my favorite relic, the shield, I was important to the team and did 3 million boss damage on rhulk. The jumping puzzle takes a while, but it was cool. I liked all the encounters equally, and I highly recommend doing the raid if anyone reading this hasn’t. The encounters just need communication and caretaker was very easy with non contest mode. I personally like having an equilibrium like this raid did, makes the raid feel balanced and you are doing damage strats while also being able to use what you like equally. Great raid, and I was able to run what I like so it’s good in my book.

1 ReplyI’d rather have a mechanic-heavy encounters than more boss fights. Boss fights are boring. The boss just stands there while you unload on them.

I’m just tired of every encounter of every raid being able to have an instant wipe from one person making a mistake. It’s the complete opposite of teamwork and communication, discourages guided games, is lazy balancing bypass, and just promotes people to look for members that already have multiple completions. I really don’t care what they do with the encounters if the fundamental design is flawed.
