Strange Terrain has never made sense as a strike, as we already killed Nokris in the story missions.
Or so we are led to believe. My suggestion is that Strange Terrain, like the Hollowed Lair, be provided a loophole in which the repeated strike can be explained in the lore. The explanation? Nokris resurrected himself.
Nokris is already known to be a Necromancer. We see him exercise these powers in the strike itself. If he can save others, why not himself? (Ironic)
To do this wouldn’t take much. Just tweak the dialogue a bit with Zavala and Ana saying he’s come [i]back[/i] instead of this being his first appearance. In fact, you wouldn’t even have to re-record some bits, and just add the new dialogue at the end.
Of course, if it really isn’t too much trouble

1 ReplyThat could explain it. I’m still trying to decide if he has a Throne World, with him being a necromancer that goes against the Logic

Strikes don't like having continuity with the current timeline, so Bungie's "pocket in time" logic gives them a pass to always act like it's the first time and still exist in the game. (Yet seasonal activities don't cause screw you).
-
Neither of the Warmind strikes make sense. They act as if we never fought or knew about Nokris or Xol, even though the strikes are literally just rehashed story missions.

Nokris most likely has a throne world

3 RepliesI believe the word your looking for is throne world. Although never mentioned in warmind it makes sense he would have one since his brother and dad have them. I also think xol has one as well since the whisper mission shows us he is still alive. There is also evidence we dont kill him since his death animation is more like he is teleporting out, not dying.

Edited by FdYAcsoyPKN83gLE: 1/25/2020 11:33:26 PMHow about change the strike to not be a copy & paste of a story mission.

Change the Sloan dialogue first. Changes her mind in less than a second.

1 ReplyWhy not? I remember when Bungie fixed new dialogue to the strikes in the first game, for example they explained how Omnigul came back and the funniest dialogue exchange was in The Nexus where Cayde joins the conversation to which Ikora asks why he is there.

Xol rezzed Nokris for the 2nd strike. Nokris tried rezzing Xol but we stopped him. The Will of the Thousands strike happens at the same time as the campaign. It's an emergency and Ana sent out a distress signal. You either join "the guardian", are "the guardian or random guardians join you, or they don't.

The Strike is the Canon version imo.
-
The strike isn't a separate mission from the story mission. Bungie made the story mission replayable as a strike. So canonically we've still only killed him once.

Bruh..... Really?? Smh......

I bet your brain almost explodes when you run Looped.

All these issues with the game and this what you would like for them to fix...

Fun thing that makes the dialogue even worse. According to the lore and Bungie themselves when running the strike playlist it's a simulation. Yet we talk like we've never met or fought him or Xol.
-
2 RepliesThe whole story of Destiny is that we are in a Vex simulation and that’s why everything happens over and over again. Yeah. Think about it.
-
And find some reason for Xol too. Nokris is definitely the easier of the two to rectify but both of them peeve me in a weird way when I hear the dialogue. It’s a petty complaint, but it’s so strange how every other strike from story missions have some loophole to keep it from just being the story mission.
