Bring hard mode raids back

As of right now, raids are kind of a joke. Once you learn the mechanics, there’s no other mastery. They are simply too easy. The rewards are also lackluster. By offering a hard mode, more hardcore players can get a more difficult challenge. Hard mode should also offer unique rewards along with being more challenging. By keeping normal raids, you can still appeal to the more casual players.

  • Normal raids in D1 were (in general) much easier than our current raids in D2. That’s not to say that I don’t think our current raids are pretty easy, but for a normal raid to appeal to casuals, it’d need to be a little easier (not Scourge tho, that’s fine). I more think hard modes are needed for a source of truly meaningful endgame rewards. Give us hard mode weapons with slight damage bonuses against the correlating enemy factions, or specific enemies in the raids (i.e. Berserker, Angelic, Might of Riven... is that its name?, the Taken Knight that drops the relic in LW, etc. ) Give us hard mode armor ornaments like D1. Supreme raid mods, cool shaders, emblems—all of it, just like D1. I think Bungie’s current raids are great [i]normal modes[/i] but if there isn’t going to be a hard mode to amp up the rewards to 11, than they’re going to have to start satisfying those desires through these normal raids. GoS is probably the raid closest to having done this. I feel having a season dedicated mostly to just updating old raids, strikes, balance passes, quality of life, etc. (like Age of Triumph) would be much more valuable than another horde mode and a few exotic quests.
