Raid feels too much like work instead of fun....

Does anyone else feel this way? Instead of making it with a bunch of puzzles that wipe out thee entire group with the slightest mistake,couldn’t just be set up with hrs of really hard enemy encounters with a few sub-bosses to make it more fun & appealing to everyone? I mean seriously I usually just look for someone with the boss cp to avoid all those ridiculous areas beforehand.....

  • Not to mention, you have to maintain radio silence through most of the encounters to hear call outs. No playful banter like in D1 Raids.

    • I respectively disagree: I find this raid to be fun I run the raid with friends regularly over the weekend with all 3 characters I find the mechanics to be a nice change of pace - though like any raid, all it takes is for 1 guy to foul up n it goes to shit : we just laugh it off n reset We probably can get the raid completed in under an hour n a half

    • Raid content is supposed to be difficult.

      • That's kind of why VoG was my favorite, KF and WoM where also similar but added more mechanics. Some mechanics are ok and organized fireteam shooting with bosses along the way is what I enjoyed in the previous raids. I've beaten the Calus raid once and really didn't like it all that much and it seems to be the same with my clan, not really liking all the puzzles it's a little too much and making it not that enjoyable, that and the raid gear is nothing to write home about, no raid perks at all.

      • You do realize that raids are meant to be "challenging" That's the meaning of end game, if you've never raided in another game then I can see why you're tilting off the face of the planet. I completely welcome the tactics the Calus fight has brought, sure - not the hardest but it requires the team work any RPG should be willing to put out in order to feel like they have achieved. Just work on it, if you have people that you supposedly almost 'lost' as a friend - then your friends need to take a chill pill and watch a 2 minute tip video for the fight instead of going in blind. Better luck next time.

        • Most of the game requires little else besides gunning things down. So the Destiny Raids turn that on its head with 'Piano opens door' mechanics. Now if the rewards were much more appealing...

            If it was just a really long activity filled with a bunch of sub-bosses, then it would just be a strike not a raid. The puzzles and mechanic-focused encounters are what separate strikes and raids.

            • The Raid always feels like work until you get the system down, then it's fun until you have everything. IMO.

              • Do you need to do all the shit before the boss to get the milestone?

                • The hard Raid is certainly to much work to repeat it on a regular basis. Sometimes we jump in for a bit of a challenge. The normal Raid is actually quite easy once your team nails down a pattern.

                • Agreed. Its the most unfun thing to do in gaming. A FPS that requires me to run around with stupid mechanics and do almost NO shooting at stuff. So boring. This game needs major help and quickly.

                • You don't like shooting at triangles? Or dogs that don't attack back? Don't like runnjnge around and then shoot some lamps? Then finally get to a boss, that's not really a boss. Kill adds and skulls, then hop on a pillar while he doesn't even shoot at you. This is high end raid content for sure

                    It feels like the Special Olympics...not a raid.

                  • not really, all the stuff is fairly easy. I just feel like the raid isn't worth doing. which is why I beat it once legit, and now just cheese it. cause I already proved I could do it, now I want to just get it done with fast. Although since I got my last armor piece today I probably won't be doing it again

                  • Puzzles are the worst thing Bungie added to the raids. Reason why I haven`t played this raid at all and never will. Last time I checked Destiny is a shooter.

                      Yeah, I've always wanted Raids to be about teamwork and shooting mobs. There are other more creative encounters that have been great though. Gorgons in VoG; Hell Mouth of Crota's End; Tomb Ship Platforming in King's Fall. I would like to see more special enemies that wipe teams that need to be found and destroyed as opposed to the mechanical fights like we see in the Baths, Calus, or Oryx, etc. None of the encounters are all that bad. I actually like the raid when it is accomplished in a decent amount of time. When it doesn't work, it sucks big time.

                    • Well make it a bunch of bosses then people complain it's just bullet sponges to get gear. personally I like the mechanics in the Raid and find it challenging to complete. I can see it getting a lot easier as more and more people are comfortable with the encounters. In most games Raiding will generally always have some mechanics that if ignored, will wipe the whole Raid. Just takes some patience and communication.

                    • I tried the raid a few times and almost lost friends because its just not fun or exciting I hope the raid lair proves to be more fun and has way less highly coordinated anti-climactic mechanics that start fights

                    • Agreed. The raid is NOT hard. Sadly the raid is just NOT FUN. Have fun and may RNG be forever in your favor.

                    • I agree OP. I've completed it numerous times across all 3 of my characters, done all the challenges, and done prestige... and I just don't have fun in there unless I'm completely wasted and have a cool group who is also partying...
