Make Contest Modifier A Permanent Option For Raids

Contest modifier offers an incredibly unique and difficult challenge that's not present anywhere else in the game. It can give people the same feel of the day 1 raid even if they weren't able to make it there on launch. Adding the option could also possibly provide an extra piece a loot per encounter completion or triumphs as incentive. The raid becomes a cakewalk in terms of difficulty in comparison after day 1 and I believe this is a change many people currently want and would help keep raids interesting and relevant when played repeatedly.

  • Or you know, just bring back hard mode raids.

  • I just wish they would go back to making hard mode a thing with changes in the raid not just lowering your power level and having champions

  • Yes totally. I also had a cool idea for something like this. Remember the old Five of Swords nightfall card that allowed you to choose your power handicap as well as modifiers and such. Let’s say you could 2x 3x 4x as many Spoils of Conquest based on how high you multiplier is. And for the people who wanna run Heavyweight for an even easier raid, it also works. I think this would satisfy casual raiders as well as hardcore raiders.

    I support this, but I've also seen people saying it should reward the Contest mode emblem from Day 1. I could not disagree with this more. The difficulty from Day 1 raid is not the contest mode; it is the fact that strategies and even mechanics are not fully deciphered and mastered until days/weeks later. The difficulty comes from how quickly you can learn and adapt. Giving someone unlimited time to do this removes all of the challenge and deserves no reward. TL;DR, Make Contest a permanent selectable mode, but keep the Day 1 Contest Mode Emblem only for Day 1.

  • I mean, what they could do is tie that into the heroic mode if they bring back heroics.

  • Yes please can this be a thing!!! I tried and failed day one DSC but had so much fun doing it because it was challenging( even is not as hard as previous raids) and would love to be able to try and to see if I can do it without the time limit! Also yeah having now done it without contest this is almost too easy so more challenge would be good to have!
