Hey Crota, it's Bankss, listen... I... I've got something to say... I miss you. We had a special bond you know. I'd hit you with the sword, you'd hit me. But things are different now. You see, you haven't kept up with the times and I had to move on. I'm with Aksis now. He's okay. No swords or anything but he at least cares enough to give me higher light gear. I know I came back once just to see if you'd changed. But you haven't and I don't think i can stick with that... So i have to move on. We've had a h*ll of a time together way back when and I wouldn't have changed a thing. (Except for higher light gear *wink *wink) But Aksis is my new Raid Boss now. You'll always have a special place in my heart. Hope Bungie fixes you and Aetheon soon!
Always,
Agent Bankss + Team
P.S. Give DwightTheAcolyte a promotion! He's doing a wonderful job!
[spoiler]If you didn't get the hint, I want The old raids updated please. Bungie. Please. I cri evrytiem. :([/spoiler]
Edit 1: This One's for TopHead. A letter to Atheon.
My dearest Atheon,
It's Bankss, remember me? Time is an inescapable thing, and just like time our bond. You see Aetheon when me and my friends were introduced to you we stood in awe of your towering throne, the Vault of Glass. You gave us and many others experiences and memories many will not forget. You were something different. You were our first. You were greedy, you held on to the things others sought for and gave them scraps so they'd come back another week to obtain light level 30. You had us on our knees begging for your mercy along with templar back in the start. Many would walk in and come out either broken, or with sweaty palms, an inventory of loot, and a smile. But even if they did not make it, you still made them smile looking back. And looking back... you make me smile. Atheon my dear, it's hard to see you get lost to time (Kind of Ironic right?)and while you may be lost, we can always find you in our hearts. Stay true, we hope to see you rise again.
Always,
Bankss + Team.
Guardians! We're trending, while this post my just be a string in the community, it helps build a stronger web! Share this let's get the word out! Even though they are aware, let's let them know we mean it!
Edit 2: This one's for Tomahawkman! Skolas!
Skolas,
It's Bankss! It seems we've haven't met in quite some time now. It's not you it's me. After i first killed you, and after you killed me and my team for the hundredth time because you were so OP, I fell off the Prison of Elders scene. You see, you were too aggressive for your own good. And you had some really annoying friends. You know "They are dead, you are not!" And " Yesssss Guardian! Yessssssss...." or "Sylok the Defiled!" You friends were loud and weirded me out. Especially the Warden. Tell him to stop staring at me with that eye of his. It's like he's checking me out or something. It hurt to stay around them for so long. And while Bungie did help you out by trying to reconnect you and our community it seems to have fallen short with me because while this game we live in is a grindfest, I did not enjoy it so much with you. You can call me old fashioned but I'm more of a raid man myself. I'll still miss you though, you were different than everyone else. But I've got bigger and better things to do! Sorry.
Stay different. There's others out there for you!
Sincerely,
Bankss.
Edit 3: This one's for SuperEnderBoss who requested oryx!
Oryx,
It's Bankss. Sorry it took so long to write you. It's just that shipping a letter from Earth to Saturn can be quite a challenge. You see, you were something special. You had the "boss build" strong and mighty and towered over us yet, when we work together we blew you to bits just like your son Crota! He's doing well though just to let you know. I'm gunna stop by his place soon and take him on! Anyway, you see, you were special because you turned a raid into what it was supposed to be. You taught us a valuable lesson and that's how to work together. Something us guardians will hold on to. And you meant alot to me being Crota's father. Sorry I annoyed you when I killed your son but hey, he had some cool guns and things happened so I hope you can understand. Anyway, thank you for your wise lessons, thank you for the Touch of Malice, thank you for a fun teamwork required raid! I hope we get to fight again when we're evenly matched!
Love always,
Bankss
P.S. Sorry I killed your son! In case you wanted to know, his last words were," Rrrraaaaaahhhhlllghhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooo!" I think you can translate that. Best wishes.
P.S.S You gotta hire someone to clean up the Dreadnaught, it's a real mess, there are spores everywhere and dead bodies and thrall poop and I'm pretty sure I stepped in some doing the nightfall today... ewww.
To those who are saying that people including I, would only want the raid just for the loot... back when Crota was relevant I killed him 120+ times. To help people out and it was for me, the most enjoyable especially being sword bearer. Thank you to those who understand. Have a wonderful year 3 guardians!

18 RepliesMy question is this. Do people want the old raids back, or do they just want updated raid gear? I see post like this and think that if people wanted to do the raids and get a challenge out of it then why not slap on some weak gear and go?

Rest in pepperoni sweet prince.

6 RepliesI'd really like to see the old raids get updated. It'd be cool if they changed them up a bit too. Making all the Hive in Crota's End Taken, or SIVA-Fying the Vex in Vault, along with splicers in the fight. Or just straight up mixing and matching parts from each raid. Like having the Templar fight just before fighting Oryx instead of the sisters. And putting the sisters where the Templar is. This one is a serious stretch, I know. Or adding new mechanics to each part of each raid. Maybe taking a Strike boss and making them a raid boss? I'd dearly like to fight Taniks who shoots missiles instead of Skolas. (I know, Skolas is not a Raid, but it's an endgame activity).

1 ReplyDear crota I miss the days of your eternal lag and glitches, chasing me into the center room, not spawning the ogres on time, the sword bearer not spawning, the sword disappearing too soon. Going right when you were supposed to go left and then Teleporting left and killing me.. Good times.

1 ReplyI am dead, you are not yessssssssssssss You're more then welcome to drop by my prison cell and spend some time with me, being level 35 is kind of lonely. I'll make sure that traitor Variks the "loyal" rewards you with some reputation for your time spent

1 ReplyYou remember going into crota for the first time ever...dropping into the thralls....finding that first chest, team mates saying it's just a chest for resources.... "Psykobeasty has found ICEBREAKER" My team was so salty through the entire raid

It seems as though my father is angry. You forgot about him. Make another letter for him before it's too late. -Crota
