Should old raids take turns weekly as a featured 390-400 heroic raid?

Yes

397

Maybe

45

No

44

I, like perhaps many other Guardians out there, hate to see the old raids die. Crota's End, Vault of Glass, King's Fall, and eventually, Machine's Wrath have been almost completely ignored since their drops have become obsolete after each new update. My suggestion is that an old raid (as of now 3 to choose from), may be featured as a level 390-400 where old gear drops at levels that are now deemed appropriate for modern guardians. At the end of each week, a new raid from the past may take the spot light for the next 7 days and so on; similar to how the raid challenges currently work. I find that this will make available more activities to guardians each week by using content that is already within the game. Guardians will have more to do each week and be able to relive favorite moments and battles within the Destiny universe that have barely been touched since the arrival of each year. Of course, this entire concept is entirely open for debate and changes as readers may see appropriate. Whether you agree or not with my proposal, please vote and/or post in the comments below. Thanks for your time.

  • The old raids should take turns doing things of a romantic nature to each other until we end up with a bouncing baby abomination begging to be put out it's misery every week.

  • Nah. Here's what you do. Monthly nightfall raid. Only a heroic version. Darkness smothers you. Trickle and heroic are permanent modifiers. 3 more role randomly. Every challenge mode is active (create ones for Crota and vog). Welcome to hell.

    • I had a similar idea, only a monthly raid with nightfall modifier, burns and challenges. Make it stupidly hard and dish out some sweet sweet treats at the end. Something to give us a challenge again!

    • The raids are fine as is, but there should be a way to bring up the gear. As far as the elemental primaries, I still don't get why they're gone(I've heard and argued on this topic plenty, please don't). Maybe they could figure something to do with them.

    • They made a mistake by not allowing content to be valid after it's been replaced by new content. There would be so much to do if every raid was a route to end game levels instead of having to grind the same stuff over and over. It's sad that they create their own limitations on valid content. I'd be raiding on all 3 characters every week if I could choose between VOG, Crota, KF, and WotM.

    • Absolutely, as long as they increase Vault space as well.

      My suggestion would be making new, raid specific modifiers, such as making you do less damage to oracles in VoG, making the presence of crota active throughout the entire raid, adding a 25% health-lock to the Warpriest, making orbs not respawn in Golgoroth, and making it so that there would be a team wipe if the same person ran again in Oryx, etc. Vault of Glass and Crota's End would be more challenging in general and King's Fall would make Warpriest harder by making it so you have to use all three obelisks, Golgoroth by making one orb impossible, and Oryx by making it so almost everyone has to learn how to run. These are only a few modifiers that would be created though.

    • And add Heroic Modifiers to it. Arc Burn, Fresh Troops, Grounded, etc.

      • Make it like 380-400 though to make it a little more accessible. Or make it so that normal mode is 385 and hard mode is 395.

      • This is a great idea. Maybe even throw a Skolas run in there for good measure. Make everything relevant again.

      • That's too much frigging about all it needs is it drop gear at year 1 light level but needs to be infusible upto 400 thus still making current end game activities still relevant to reach max light whatever gear you use

      • I think they should all be available all the time, I personally dont want to have to wait 2 or 3 weeks if I want to run vog or Crota, I dont want to run any of the others.

        Would it take turns then? 1. VoG 2. CE 3. KF 4. WotM Then it will go back to VoG then repeat in the same order? Or will the order be randomized so that weekly raids aren't repeated back to back?

        • I like this idea. And if you aren't up together on the current weekly raid and struggling, the next week you can go do it at the lower level to practice. But as we know itl never happen.
