To all the babies crying about Atheon "exploit"
I am so tired of hearing you babies cry about the "exploit" of pushing atheon off. It is NOT an exploit. Just because somebody was smart enough to think outside the box it is an exploit? Not hardly. Many critically acclaimed and loved games have moments where if you think outside the box you can easily pass an otherwise more difficult encounter. Ff7 for instance has an undead boss that can be one shotted if you use an item on it that is intended to revive a player. Is this an exploit? No, it is just critical thinking. During VoG before the templar you have to down fanatics and upon death they drop an aoe. When you see this do you stand in it? No, you avoid the green shit. Why should atheon be any different? Raid mechanics generally call for you to avoid standing in aoe so it is only critical thinking to try this on atheon. Basically just because somebody thinks of a clever way to do something doesn't mean it's an exploit. I'm sure I will get flamed into oblivion for this post but I don't care because it needed to be said. Keep crying guardians and have a nice day. Git Gud.

Ive been thinking about it a lot since the hotfix. The platform fix? I can understand, but if its an unplayable area, dont spawn snipers on there as if to say "hey! Look its a platform!" And draw attention to it. Or the other option would be allow platform use on normal, and remove it on hard mode. Likewise with aetheon. Easy mode, he will simply back up and fall off (it still takes skill, and teamwork) while hard mode aetheon gets teleport. Not too hard, and i think anyone doing hard mode will understand that its hard mode for a reason. The vex nerf...im torn. Personally i think it should not have been nerfed. If its the best gun in the game, you should be able to roll through any pve mission laughing all the way. The pvp aspect is different. I think that all weapons should have equal scaling damage output in pvp, and if its the iron banner, or a mode that takes your gear, and weapons into account, well you know what, if your getting wrecked constantly by a dude in pvp because hes got the vex, well then take your but out of pvp and go find yourself a raid group. Until i was able to get into the raid, i was cursing this games obvious favoritism to the pvpers left and right, thankfully the queens missions alleviated a lot of that gripe, but it remains a little because us pvers just had the best gun in the game nerfed drastically because some pvpers were tired of getting spanked. I will end with this. Last night was supposed to be our clans raid night. Look forward to it every week, but we didnt run the raid last night. Why? We simply did not feel like it, and the reward at the end is no longer enough to get everyone to stay comitted.
