Gambit - Now Even Worse
Up to now I thought the WQ was the best thing Bungie had done to date, that is until I tried Gambit.
I am no fan of Gambit and only go there for the drops, but it's got even worse. I could not believe how bad it was with the changes. Having to run round the map looking for the attendants just prolongs the agony making the encounter drag out. Plus the invader is still over the top and having no rader guide for the general direction is appalling, if there was going to be one positive change that would have to have been it.

Straight up truth. May not even play it for the the Weekly Quests.
-
I don’t recall anyone asking for the change to boss back to the immunity -blam!-.
-
Needs to be permanently vaulted…

8 RepliesNot just Gambit, the entire game is worse. With this update Bungie has made it pointless to masterwork any weapon that is not exotic. I guess it’s good because I don’t need as many cores now but it sucks that they took away orb dropping from weapons. Let’s be honest, the only reason they did that is because their servers suck and the constant generation of orbs was about to make their garbage equipment crash. This was a change to help Bungie and nothing else.

It's awful
-
I'm in there for pinnacles and then I'm gone. Only reason I played more than 3 games this week was for the challenge. Didn't think they could make gambit worse but they figured it out. Can't wait until they take it out of the game completely.

1 ReplyThey need to dial it back to gambit prime or how we first had things when the mode launched it takes way to long an feels like i gotta empty two mags to take out a red bar enemy 😅
-
23 RepliesYeah adding immunity phases killed whatever good the other changes did.
-
i commend you for your bravery in even attempting to go into Gambit. I am in the ever growing crowd that believes Gambit should be deleted in the same way Mercury and Brother Vance were.
-
Can't stand it. Gambit even more painful than it was. Now it's completely unbearable

1 ReplyGames seem to take forever …. So boring

1 ReplyI shall continue my upvoting of these topics. Yeah, Gambit sucks.

1 ReplyHow can Gambit get worse, seriously?? Surely Gambit being the pile of sh!t it is, can't get any worse??

Edited by Gunship: 3/1/2022 6:47:16 PMLove Witch Queen in general. But I [i]never[/i] liked gambit. It does seem even worse than before tho... Re: Radar - I should mention though, just to be fair, I got a weapon drop today in gambit, that had a new perk; If you hit an invader with it, it will Tag them for your whole team. It was a SMG if memory serves... It think there have been so many sweeping changes to the sandbox, it will take us all a while to really see how they change gameplay. For instance just last night I realized I might actually be able to find a use for warlock exotics other than Ophidians or Transversive Steps! Lol...
-
I disagree..I think it's a lot better than previous iterations. It's never going to be 100 % truly fair and balanced but it's much better.
-
3 games, pinnacle, out, see ya next week The BEST bit was respawning me right in front of the invader who jus G'Horned me.. amazing. Killed by invisible auto tracking cluster rocket from invisible enemy? We'll, -blam!- you buddy. Die again hahahaha New spawns are garbage.
-
Its better… until you have summoned primeval which is 80% of gambit at this point with invades literally every 15-20 seconds with constant heavy and envoys that are on the other side of the map every 15-30 seconds. Tbf i could probably cope with the invades as its always been a bit of a cluster f*ck with that one but having the boss go invun every 20 ish secs and then an invader comes along, gets 1-2 kills and now from a third left to max health with how tanky primevil is now…. Yea kinda feels like a slap in the face after you put in that much effort. Think they forgot to tune how much health gets put back on per kill while beefing up the boss.
-
As someone who is still very used to gambit prime, i am quite enjoying rolling over people who have no idea what they're doing now.

1 ReplyI hate the fact that the boss in gambit is now in phases. Had a team who was severely in the lead (1 bar left) and we got shat on by the opposing team. I want to be able to melt the Gambit boss again. Not deal with a shielded enemy who is immune due to having to find things to kill. Give us back gambit from Beyond Light, where it was better gameplay..
-
not changing the rate of invasions during primeval phases was a mistake. the team that spawns the primeval first can currently invade quite often, while the other team is just trying to get all their motes to spawn their primeval. I thought there was some kind of a "catch up" system in place, so that the team that was way behind could have a chance. not really finding any info online, does anyone know what the current rules are? recent TWABs only say 'unchanged' with no specifics.
-
Horrible… I felt personally the invader came in when we where trying to bank and we were trying to clear out blockers… four games yesterday and it was like we were facing a team of gjallahorn users… just point and shoot in our direction and we all died with 5 million motes each! LoL
-
I like everything except the immunity part.

5 RepliesGambit is way better
-
most people "absolve" 3 games and thats it for the week.
-
2 RepliesInvading is significantly harder given that both teams have heavy ammo on demand now. You know how much of a pain it is to invade against a team of 4 people with gjallarhorn? If you're still getting destroyed by an invader, they're either playing better than you and deserve it, or your team is playing poorly and deserves it.
-
I think it's an amazing change because I was sick of tractor cannon synthocep Titans melting the boss in 30 seconds.
