Why don't we have an endgame activity similar to Prison of elders?

I've been playing a lot of Destiny 1 and am seeing a lot of gold eggs from that game that is real fun and rewarding. Imo Destiny 2 really needs something like Prison of elders but I wouldn't want a copy of it though, just a similar idea with rounds and rewarding loot chests after the activity.

  • The Menagerie (and Override to an extent) hit those old PoE vibes for me.

  • Why don't we have alot of content we used too. Most games that keep going like this with seasons and DLC get better. Destiny is going the other way. Maybe time to ring the bell and work on D3.......

  • I want some kind of endless Tower climbing mode in either the ascendant realm or the Clovis Simulation with an endlessly generating Pyramid tower with some kind of darkness monster as one of the bosses.

      Because people hated Prison of Elders man 😂😂 I enjoy posts like these. People don’t know how good they had it until it’s gone. Now look at the mess the game is currently in.

      Bungie: We will make you a great matchmade activity as you request! But the rewards will be terrible, or the matchmaking wont work, or it will be too difficult, or it will be too easy, and we guarantee that we will never get it right! I should say, Court of Oryx was pretty good. Small but people played it for a long time. Archons forge was fun, but matchmaking was broken. POE was fine to solo, but the loot was pretty meh. Hard mode POE was fun when the LL was increased. Skolas was ridiculous. Got him week 2.

      • Prison of Elders got a lot of hate from the "Hardcore" players because it wasn't a Raid. Personally, I liked POE. The lv.28 POE had match making, so it was one of the few times in D1 that I able to participate in an Endgame ( like ) activy.

          [quote]Why don't we have an endgame activity similar to Prison of elders?[/quote] Either the devs that created that are working on the other projects Bungie has going The devs that created it quite working for this company Or, Bungie doesn't care to create content similar to that P.O.E was fun for its time when it first released, but as the other studio that created Menagerie? it would have been nice to see that effort put into P.O.E. Not the loot system, but adding extra challenges with new areas to explore.

          • I would love this so much. I also wish they updated Altars of Sorrow too. Bringing back PoE would be great. I'd love a challenge.

          • We now have neither the archon's forge nor the menagerie. Only old strikes and PvP with its eternal problems.

            • Loved PoE, multiple unique boss fights and a genuine but doable challenge when it first dropped.

              Definitely needs something worthwhile, I've gone back to playing monster hunter with my kids that game actually feels rewarding when a decent drop occurs. D2 could take some positives from other games and become alot better. Mhw adds tempered and arch tempererd variants with unique drops. Nightfalls could change to something similar and add unique rewards. Borderlands series 4 weapon unrestricted weapon loadout In D2 we have an ......emote wheel.... Even AC Valhalla has daily and weekly quests for opals, D2 could add something similar for upgrade materials like golf balls.

            • Well there is sorrows harbor rounds followed by a chest - except the rewards are below sunset level, its still fun. There is still the blind well - same as above. Both the "prison of elders" clones / remakes / whatever you want to call them are available, fun, can be a challenge, but not rewarding

            • We did but sun setting happened. We had Black Armory. We had Menagery. We had Escalation Protocol. But they removed those to make room for the amazing new activities that replaced those...

              But its so much easier to Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. Right now Bungie are doing something super special; so we're currently going through a big Ctrl+X. This time, to spice things up, they won't even Ctrl+V. [spoiler]Imo, should've just kept Menagerie with rotating loot each week or season.[/spoiler]

              • Making content is hard. Besides it'd hit the content vault after a season if it was popular

                • They would ruin it by not giving matchmaking with most difficulties and champions. But yeah not having played D1 it looks intereseting.

                  • Honestly I'd take even just a straight up copy/paste with updated loot pool prison of elders. Had so much fun with friends back in the day in it + it could be very challenging at times and very rewarding, not to mention they already have some of those assets in D2
