Anyone remember strike bosses?

I thought strikes were supposed to have boss fights at the end, but every time I do one now, everyone pops their super and the strike ends. Please add strike bosses back into the game.

  • I'm still trying to get the triumph for standing in the flame attack for 10 seconds of the Prison of elders servitor. Not that I really care though, burning bosses down instantly is fun.

    • Eh. Personally I liked the Restorative Mind strike (giant Harpy, ps exclusive until D2 launch). You actually could kill the boss immediately with the right modifiers, but if you fail to do so, there was a simple mechanic you had to do to damage it. Problem is, I saw many complaints of trolls not allowing the team to progress. That's why it's a hard thing to balance. If mechanics are involved, they have to be simple enough for people who are not communicating to understand, and there will always be people looking to piss off people for fun (moderate sadism if you think about it).

      • Those of us who are up to date on our expansion purchases should have something like SIVA Crisis Heroics to keep things challenging. The strikes are too easy. A 680 version Heroic.

        • Bungie heard you and added several immunity phases into the game. Then everyone complained because it took more than one second to kill the boss.

          • Strikes are by far the most boring thing in game right now... Just hold forward on stick, burn boss and... next... D2 supposedly is a shooter but feels more like a runner most of the time... And the grind for the pinnacle weapons just encourages speed running the strikes which is boring as hell... Instead of run 50 strikes or whatever id much prefer kill 100000 enemies or something... LESS RUNNING MORE SHOOTING PLEASE... The Iron Banner pinnacle weapon triumph for the wizened rebuke was way better as it was kill 500 guardians and not complete 100 crucible matches or something... But yea strikes need lots of work in general...

          • The only strike boss really is the Fanatic since he can’t be killed immediately

            • The problem is their health. In D1 you fought to beat the boss and the fight made it fun, but in D2 you either delete them or watch as they leave the fight for 5 minutes at a time, so you end up with either no battle at all or a boring one

                • Yep, Yellow bar Cabal are harder to kill. Make the bosses take less Super and heavy damage. Boost kinetic.

                • What would be sweet is raid strikes where you just run that segment of the raid but like a strike instead of entire raid Yeah it would be six players but no raid gear

                      • They should add Pinnacle Nightfalls to the game that are super hard versions of the strike list of nightfalls for that week. New and improved super shitty modifiers, trash has 1 mil health each, yellow bars have 10 mil health, the boss has at least 50 mil health. extinguish non optional (OG), time limit of 9 minutes or your health starts going down by 9 every 7 seconds. What's not to love?

                          • I speed run everything and kill the boss as fast as possible because I've been doing the same strikes since d2 came out. At this point I'm not really here to waste my time on a strike that I've done over a hundred times. I'm just here to get the rewards. A solution would be to update all activities and add new things.

                            • I'd say add a new current-light strike playlist that updates with each expansion, like the old D1 Y2 heroic playlists. That way, those of us that find catharsis in absolutely [i]obliterating[/i] a boss before it can blink still get to, and those that want a challenge will also have an option. (Some of us just can't be bothered spending 5-10 minutes on the same strike bosses that we've already killed 83,759 times since launch)

                            • Lol, at least people don’t run melting point whisper with catalyst well of radiance and tether that much and run whatever exotic they want, but I agree with what you are saying.
