Okay, first things first. I'm fully prepared for all the "Lol git gud scrub" and other similar comments so I'll ask you to kindly refrain from that elitist garbage please. Also refrain from calling me a crybaby or whiner or whatever because forums aren't meant to be a circle jerk about how great and perfect the game is when it clearly isn't.
As it stands, the raid is too difficult for "normal mode". I'm not saying that the enemies are too tough or whatever but there are some serious problems that need addressing. One problem is the revive mechanic. A 30 second timer or wipe is just awful. Even worse is that you can only revive someone once. As someone who completed all the raids prior to Rise of Iron multiple times, I am fully aware that Raids are meant to be difficult but this isn't friendly towards newcomers. It's not even friendly to the casual player. It literally only caters to Elitists. Trying to get through a raid where you keep having to wipe because someone keeps dying is just awful. It isn't fun, it's tedious. The raid should be fun, not tedious. I get the feeling this mechanic is going to extend to future raids aswell. It's awful.
Another thing - Tougher enemies in the raid require lots of heavy ammo. How are we supposed to kill them by ourselves if we don't have enough ammo because of the way ammo drops are handled now? Ammo in D1 would drop like candy. There was no need to change it.

your completely wrong honestly the raid is a cake walk once you know what to do the bath house is easy literally just switching spots dogs you can kill on the first round one on each dog they die easy and the boss is just knowing the mechanics and having good communication there's really no reason you should be dying in the first place unless you get overrun but even then you correct your screw up next attempt if anything its easier then all of d1 raids but super unrewarding and super glitchy they need to redo it all and make it actually worth a damn getting 500 glimmer from raid chests is just stupid of its a struggle for you you need to put a better team together or raise your light lvl more

Alrighty bud. Please don't ask them to turn the raid into a strike. And git gud skrub.

The raid has been out 2 days Leave this post until a few more weeks, then judge. It can't be worse than POE back in year 1 after the burn had been removed.

I guess I wasn't quite clear enough. [b]I understand that raids are meant to be hard. I completed all the raids prior to Rise of Iron multiple times. The enemies are not overly tough or anything, it's the revive mechanic.[/b] If even one person is not up to scratch, the whole team has to wipe because of that person. In D1 raids, you could make-do with one person not being up to scratch. But now, thanks to the revive mechanic, everyone must be of similar skill plateaus.

I actually think it's too easy. Once you learn the mechanics it's super easy. The people you are playing with are just bad. If you need help PM me. I can explain how to do every part with ease.

Everything else in this game is already pretty dang easy. For those of us that enjoy a challenge the raid is one of the only things there is. The raid is an endgame activity, meant to be hard. It's obviously not impossible since there have been plenty of people that have beaten it.
