Leviathan = Destiny Olympics not Raid
This raid feels like busy work. You just hope your classmates finish their at the same time and with out error so your busy work counts.

2 RepliesThe first 3 encounters are fine IMO. What I hate is calus. Any mistakes are instant wipes, there's no "dam, forgot to hit that physion, get to the safe room" or something. Its just instant wipe. There is no room for error. The new revive system makes this even worse. Never thought I'd say this but the old system is better IMO. Yeah, the person would stay dead but at least the whole team wouldnt have to wipe because calus sent the guy without a token into the room and someone hit the tiniest bump sending them flying a mile high.

All they needed to do was license the asian dudes from dubbed Ninja Warrior shows and have them do whacky commentary.

5 RepliesOnly the Gauntlet feels that way. The rest of the encounters were fine. Only thing that should have been changed was take Gauntlet out and put in a sub-boss. The Castellum was a big miss as well. You shouldn’t have to do the same repetitive grindy encounter that doesn’t reward you with anything FOUR times to clear the Raid. Getting keys from bosses that you have to run around under the ship and find the chests to was dumb as well. Just make the bosses drop the loot directly. As far as the 4 main encounters? They were all fine except Gauntlet though.

7 RepliesWorst raid ever. Jumping through hoops, hiding from dogs and pollinating flowers?! I want to use space magic and powerful guns in epic battles with aliens and bosses. What is this raid?
-
8 RepliesComplete busy work. Its a FPS for god sakes, and instead of shooting and killing bosses, Im jumping through rings, sneaking around with an orb in my hand, and punching stuff. I get there needs to be a mechanic and design, but its so stupid. I do more running around than shooting at stuff. And those chest keys! OMG worst design ever. You have to spend 2 hours running around trying to find where these chests spawn, only to get complete garbage from them. The map is unnecessarily big. Why in the world is there all that space just to run around not doing anything. Then to get the chests, i have to do these stupid mechanics in the room just to open them. Finding them was enough of a chore. Any why is the end game RAID boss static? He doesnt move. Not fun at all.

10 RepliesEdited by BIGwillestylz: 11/20/2017 7:44:23 PMThis raid is the worst raid they ever released. Second worst? The war machine raid. Actually this raid is a reskin of that raid

This was my thoughts pretty much . Raid is Luke smithed.
-
Leviathan sucks. Horrible Raid.
-
Leviathan is garbage.
-
Honestly this is the worst raid ever. Super boring and not worth it. I remember running VOG and WOTM even after having all the loot because they were fun.
-
So much this. I was thinking about r last night when my buddy messaged me asking to join a raid and how I just didn’t feel like it. After AoT dropped, I was running at least 12 raids a week and enjoying the F out of it..... there is no magic left in D2 (they nerfed the hell out of my space magic) and I didn’t even feel like playing....... anyways, on topic.... with every other raid, you were legit fighting an enemy for your survival.... this is as OP stated, a bunch of stupid games for your guardians..... like, boss Callus is sending his employees to their deaths for fun or something when fat space turtle isn’t even there to fight you at the end.....

1 Replythis raid is utter crap and the reason im not playing D2 anymore , even if anything else sucked but the raid was awesome it would be enough to keep my playing.

1 ReplyEdited by Sin: 11/20/2017 6:50:07 PMI just don't get it. Bungie had a chance to really make this raid fun. Got to the dogs with my buddy and of the six of us, only two knew what was going on. Why the -blam!- do I have to watch a YOUTUBE video on how to proceed through the dogs area? And how would you figure it out otherwise? From everything we've seen so far in Destiny 2, it's been "shoot this." Now I'm having to sneak around with spores and stack the spores and make sure the guy up top shoots it with his laser beam all the while avoiding detection and then after you get 96x stacks you have to go back and kill the dogs at your designated area..... wtf? Here's a free one bungie: Your fireteam drops into a black hole, another dimension. Floating platforms all around. They start moving. In the middle of all the floating platforms, a giant abyss/snake/VEX monster materializes. You have to carefully dodge not only the attacks from the monster, but eventually the monster will destroy all the platforms. It should have recognizable attacks: charge ups, sweeping attacks, aoe attacks. It shouldn't teleport anywhere, and for the love of god, stop giving these bosses immunity for no reason. I want to shoot stuff, not jump through hoops.

5 RepliesIt's more like a gameshow. This raid is literally the Cabal version of MXC. All it needs is Kenny Blankenship and Vic Romano announcing the annoying ways we die and it would be complete.
-
1 ReplyGauntlets is the lamest part if the whole raid imo
-
18 RepliesThis is a Space Shooter... goal is to save the galaxy... What the hell is Leviathan? Bungie failed again. I have ove 300 hours in D2 on two different Platforms and I still can't tell you what the hell a Leviathan is.. I'd say that's a problem.
-
Everytime I use to step foot in the Leviathan I felt like I was in the movie "The Ringer"......
-
yeah kinda feels like guardian special Olympics - where we literally jump through hoops to satisfy Calus. LOL
-
Yes the raid, especially the Gauntlet feels like a destiny Olympics and from what i have seen the only loot to grind for is the rocket launcher and that is a maybe.

[quote]This raid feels like busy work. You just hope your classmates finish their at the same time and with out error so your busy work counts.[/quote] I like everything about Destiny 2 other than the Raid. It's too mechanics heavy, you aren't playing the game.

2 RepliesEdited by CannyJack: 11/19/2017 3:36:01 AMDestiny carnival games, as it were. And yes, the lore says that's entirely the point. In other words, they couldn't have come up with a better way to make me feel like I wasted my time if they'd set out with the [i]express intent[/i] to destroy any emotional investment I might have in the game. I mean, we lose everything from D1, have to claw back all that shit we already did, and the big endgame is to be someone's dancing monkey. Fu-u-u-u-uck that.

Should read 'Not so Special Olympics'

1 ReplyYes that would be teamwork..and the gauntlets are superb, as is the rest of the raid.

1 ReplyWell, this Raid is almost a "Greatest Hits" style with it's Raid encounters with slight twists to the formula for each. -Baths are like the Totem Run from King's Fall, except you have a central objective to shoot. -Pleasure Gardens are like Gorgons except you kill all of the Gorgons to proceed. -Gauntlet is like Deathsinger Sisters, except you have two runners instead of one, and everyone is a runner in the end. -Calus is like Atheon except you get to choose your two teams (like you could with Atheon at the very beginning); two teams in two different "worlds" trying to regroup to damage the boss. Except there are way more callouts between the teams than just where they are. Now, did they do these old Raid encounters justice in The Leviathan? That's up to your opinion to decide. I personally really like Dogs. The Solarbeam thing is really cool, and I wish it was used for more than empowering and killing one enemy.

So what you’re saying is you want a raid without challenge?
