It might be cool, but too hard for my team.

[i][b]The community response to this idea so far has been amazing! So far we have 90+ up-votes, 375+ replies, and over 2800+ votes by Guardians who absolutely want to see Nightfall Raiding added to the game in some fashion or another. Keep up the positive support, and this could very well become a part of the game we all love! I will do my best to keep the OP updated to best reflect the feedback in your replies. <3 Billtacular III[/b][/i] - - - - - - - [u]Nightfall Raiding[/u] I was talking to my clan the other night, and the topic of a hypothetical Nightfall tier Raid came up. Every week*, one of our existing three raids will rotate in as the Weekly Nightfall Raid. The raid will have a set of 5 modifiers similar to current Nightfall strikes, which will change based on which raid is being featured. The spawning will work similar to how it does in hard mode raids; If you die, you cannot be revived. Upon a full team wipe, you will be respawned at the last checkpoint your team had reached. If your team returns to orbit without completing the Nightfall Raid fully, your progress will be reset. You have to complete the entire raid at one time. Completing the Weekly Nightfall Raid could reward Year 2 exotics, Year 2 versions of Year 1 exotics, Year 2 versions of old raid armor and weapons, special emblems/ shaders/ ships, legendary marks, tons of rep, tons of strange coins, etc. Would you give it a go? It would give us a good reason to revisit year one end game content, as well as providing a new challenge to our current end game. Share your thoughts and ideas for this new weekly challenge! *A lot of members of the community have suggested that the Nightfall Raid gets rotated bi-weekly, or even monthly. - - - - - - - [i]My added thoughts:[/i] [spoiler] -Remember that sweet blue flame that year one nightfall completions gave us? They didn't make it into year two. :( Maybe those who complete the Weekly Nightfall Raid can see this legendary flame once more? A very possible and unique reward that is currently missing. -Thinking about the blue flame a bit more, Bungie could add a new never seen before particle effect specifically for this triumph. Imagine landing back at the tower after completing the WNR, and your entire team has lightning streaking all over them. Or possibly motes of light swirling around them. Bungie played around with such cosmetic effects in Halo Reach. It wouldn't be too farfetched to add some new visual enhancements for such a feat. -Another reward from the WNR could be a secondary set of armor. Imagine getting a new set of 310 vog gear from the vog NF! It could be a year 2 set of the same gear, or Bungie could add a completely new set just for this activity. Now I'm really starting to hype myself up on this idea. Damnit! -I was wondering how long it would take before someone came in throwing around the term "elitist." We didn't even make it to 50 replies. Let me clarify for anyone else who thinks this way: I am not claiming to be good at Destiny. I am not claiming that my fireteam/clan will even be able to complete these challenges. What I [i]am[/i] trying to do is put some constructive feedback into these forums to make Destiny a better game. If all you can do is come in and call me an elitist, you are doing the opposite of helping this community.[/spoiler]
