    You’re not trying hard enough if this is the lamest thing you’ve ever done in video games. This is a pretty fire activity.

    • I’m sorry for all the people yelling “skill issue” and then explaining why its actually not a skill issue lol. But in all seriousness yesterday’s Rushdown bosses weren’t great. I really appreciate using old bosses, but those bosses are often mechanic heavy. Quria, for instance, is really daunting if you never played Season of the Splicer and fought them before. Same thing for the Ahamkara Illusion for those who haven’t played Witch Queen. I don’t feel this game mode is excluding new players as it helps them see previews of DLC’s they may have missed. My largest issue is the unwillingness of experienced players to understand that some of this is new to some people.

      • I like that Bungie was trying something different and I love the idea of this mode. But after playing it a few times, it gets boring. And the worse is expert with randoms via matchmaking. It’s terrible when I’m the very few that knows every single boss encounter, mechanics, etc. and the randoms are mindlessly running around, getting killed and wasting all the revive tokens.

          Ahamkara encounter is just boring. The nightmare encounter is also kind of boring with it being just ad clear and doing a bit of damage but isn't too offensive. However Nightmare crota is bugged and shouldn't be one shotting this was an issue they patched years ago yet is an issue again now, and quria is just an annoying fight with how its arena is designed and the shields at the beginning making it a slog to deal damage. Adding The Witness encounter at the end was pretty stupid since a lot of the mechanics are just sitting around twiddling your thumbs while the timer ticks down. Compare this to the first day where you could easily clear within 8 minutes, now this rotation has exponentionally increased completion times simply because of the line up, scaling and bugs. Its not a bad activity its just like any other ruined by poor design choices and bugs that'll take time to tune and fix.

          • They should have put a mechanics notes for each boss fight. I think that would have helped.

          • This mode is just not fun. Way to much immunity, dumb mechs (looking at quria) and this dumbfuck 1hit meeles from anything. This riven aspect is also complete bs. 1 sec damage, 30 sec wait...

            • 99% are extremely intuitive. Either shoot the big ad, pick up the relic, etc. The one that isn’t instantly obvious is Quria needing you to shoot the pink diamonds to spawn the relic orb.

              • My biggest issue is the rewards. We should be getting way more than just one bronze medal for completion. I hope Expert gives better rewards, because this is not worth anyone's time.

              • Boss fights outside of literal raid bosses in this game are all very intuitive. Specially in Destiny. All factions have overused mechanics in one way or another, if it isn't just kill ads and then the boss. Hell, even some raid bosses are super intuitive. "Do oracles", "Deposit bombs", "Deposit Motes", "Hit the boss with a relic of some kind". At this point if you see a shielded boss and don't know what to do that's just a skill issue.

                • That's some skill issue, you wouldn't have problems knowing what do do IF you did those boss fights when they were around back then etc

                • Then don't do it. No is forcing you to. Also, it's called [u][b]rushdown[/b][/u]. Not do it at your leisure. Don't do a boss rush if you don't want to deal with a timer, and all of those bosses have the same exact mechanics they did in the missions they are in.

                  • If you've been around... It's all been done before. How much intuition does it take to repeat something?

                        • Disagree. I like it and I’m happy they are trying new things with these seasonal events over the same ish every year.

                            • Maybe don’t take PvP weapons into PvE boss rush first of all. Also. It’s boss rush. So unless you know how to actually shoot your gun correctly you are gonna fail.

                            • I enjoyed Rushdown. But then again, Destiny players complain about everything. Even if it’s perfect, they’ll find a way.
