1) More and different loot drops.
2) Enemies are higher light level. (Recommended Light Level is 380, everything including and past the second Vosik encounter is 390).
3) No revives (excluding self-resurrection).
4) Encounters that featured chests needing SIVA Cache Keys (Vosik, Siege Engine, Aksis Phase 2) will now spawn 2 chests, both requiring SIVA cache keys. The ones we're used to contain NM loot, whereas the new ones are a different colour and contain HM loot.

Additionally, HM exclusive "Spliced" armour has been introduced. This is the same as the NM armour, except they're different colours, and HM armour can have [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Armory/Detail?item=2634463554&itemname=Perfected%20Ornament]Perfected Ornaments[/url] inserted into them, causing them to glow with SIVA. However, I don't think anyone has found a Perfected Ornament yet; best guess is that they drop from Challenge Mode.
[b]Opening the Door:[/b]
I have heard reports that the Voltage Eaters spawn slightly faster.
[b]Vosik, the Archpriest:[/b]
1) 6 SIVA charges have to be thrown instead of 3.
2) 1 big monitor lights up and has to be shot more than usual.
3) Safe room doors are half-closed, so you need to slide into them.
[b]Siege Engine:[/b]
After a certain amount of time has passed, a Perfected Walker will spawn in front of the Siege Engine while you're trying to deliver the parts.
[b]Aksis, Phase 1:[/b]
There are 2 SIVA turrets on the ceiling, and one on Aksis' platform that will shoot at you. They can be disabled for 20 seconds by shooting them. These disappear before Phase 2.
[b]Aksis, Archon Prime:[/b]
9 Elemental Servitors spawn instead of the usual 3, and 7 SIVA charges need to be thrown at Aksis to trigger teleport. It should be noted that spare SIVA charges can be used to destroy Elemental Servitors.
I will edit this post as new info comes to light. Keep this bumped, guardians.

1 ReplyJoined a group last night for vosiks phase 2. These guys couldn't even hit him with the bombs. A good few failed attempts. Some teams are just dreadful

5 RepliesNeed to fix the misinformation OP.

5 RepliesIs there an advantage to using one SIVA charge to destroy a servitor, giving you another? Is there some other benefit from killing them with them now?
-
17 RepliesWay better raid than shitty vault of glass
-
The fallen Walker isn't tied to Mesiks dying and only one giant monitor turns on at a time
-
3 RepliesVosik was the hardest part..Everything else was easy after that. And I like that, no stress is pretty good in a raid.
-
The walker spawns when meksis spawns
-
Me and my team beat it fairly easily. I expected it to be easy though.
-
"Hard" mode.

1 ReplyAppreciate it. Thank you.

20 RepliesEveryone saying it's easy as shit. No, just because it's easy for you and your 386+ weekly raid team does not mean it's easy for everyone. There are countless people that have yet to even mean normal mode.

1 ReplyThis heroic is so easy lmao, did first try on aksis two times in row so far going on my 3rd character now

4 RepliesGot as far as vosik. I will beat it this week mark my words

2 RepliesEdited by SergioVengeance: 10/19/2016 3:13:41 AMLegendary Weapon Engrams are still decripting to TTK gear though. I am trying to bring awareness on this issue. I made a post about it here. Please let's get this trending https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/215907660?showBanned=0&path=0

My Clan and I went in not knowing the changes, had a few wipes, but we got to the start of phase 2 aksis and called it a night. Seige machine was really interesting, not expecting the tank to fall out of the sky :)
-
Bump for later please.

Edited by ErrorSeven: 10/19/2016 6:47:45 AMHow have you not updated the walker part yet? The walker comes with the fifth drop shift. On normal mode, the fifth drop shift drops in two or three captains in front of the Siege Engine. On hard mode, a Walker takes their place. Also, during phase one of Aksis, all three turrets are not on the roof. The ones in the left and right sides are but the one in the middle is attached to the platform that Aksis is on. It's right in the middle, near the ground.

8 RepliesThank you for this list, I have not attempted hard mode yet (370 and lagging further behind...) but holy shit a walker spawns on siege engine?! *hurls*
-
2 RepliesHard mode was disappointingly easy. Those turrets were more annoying than anything in the entire raid. Ah well. Free loot!
-
8 RepliesCmon bungie this is supposed to be the "hard" mode you know...that difficult mode. They could have made the servitors deal damage or only give 2 guardians empowerment.
-
5 RepliesOnly 1 monitor not 2.
-
6 RepliesAn update from someone who has actually played and beaten hard mode, as you obviously have just copied this off Reddit for karma on forums... Vosik It's not 2 TV's, it's 1 as it always has been, it just is bigger and has more hp. Siege engine Tank doesn't spawn when you kill the captain, it spawns when the parts get roughly halfway to 3/4 the way to the siege engine.
-
1 of the 3 monitors have to be shot.

1 ReplyI smell a Dark Drinker nerf soon. ☹️

5 RepliesEdited by Gavareno: 10/19/2016 3:09:12 AMHard mode was easy aksis was nothing. But the walker was a Huge surprise and my friends had to 3 man it and still get the parts in there spot[spoiler]believe it or not they clutched it and we beat it [/spoiler]
