An idea to help spice up strikes...

Why not bring back the modifiers [b]small arms, specialist, and daybreak[/b]? It'll help spice things up in the vanguard playlist. People will dust off their favorite weapons to take advantage of the damage boost and daybreak will add a fun extra level of difficulty mixed with a touch of mayhem. All were in D1 and could easily be put into the rotation.

    They just need to be more rewarding, and really more challenging, a legendary strike playlist would be a start, with a level cap and interesting positive and negative modifiers to navigate. And secondly they would need to be more rewarding, each strike should have its own unique themed armor or weapon drop seperate from the nightfall pool, everyone loved the scored guardian games strikes , so add strike scoring back Alot of these ideas came about in D1 and were popular , so the mystery is why Bungie abandon them in D2?, you build on and improve good ideas, not replace them with bad ideas , that's like if they scrapped the wheel and tried a concrete block

  • All things considered I don’t think those modifiers would even be noticeable.

  • I can't really recall ... Did strikes ever have a rotation of difference enemy races but for the same strike? Would be interesting to see random enemy classes in different strikes. Cabal/swap with taken, vex swap with fallen so on. Or even having random enemy race incursions in other strikes.

    • I was hoping your suggestion was "Make new ones with each Season". Somewhat disappointed..

          On my opinion: Give the normal strikes some fun aspect, some level advantage would be nice. Who cares when you kill easily the boss, the rewards in normal strikes are very underwhelming. And it would give the levelsystem in it's current state more reasons than only grind. Better thing would be some reasons to play normal strikes. For example specific loot like in D1. Could be new weapons or old one like some favourites from the past (maybe craftable) The skeleton key system worked very well. Why not bringing that back? :3 For those who don't know: Back in D1 you could farm skeleton keys to get specific loot (mostly weapons I think) from a special chest at the End of a strike.

            Ive felt the mode needs to have straight up “party mode” like mechanics. Not unlike when you can have regenerating power ammo in Dares of Eternity. Let’s get crazy a bit too. Maybe bombs only. Those bombs from the corrupted strike, but they have spawns at every encounter. Maybe even various seasonal and unique powerful weapons. Like the vex beam, javelin, synaptic spear, scythe. And for enemies with certain shield types that can only be destroyed by specific weapons. Randomized (Daily) selected Special or Heavy weapon, that is the only weapon type that will get ammo, and it has infinite ammo. All other weapon types equipped have 0 ammo all the time. So when this modifier comes up in rotation it could feature Trace Rifles, maybe another time swords, maybe another time Sniper Rifles, etc. A message comes on screen when you transmat in as to the weapon choice you need. Enemy assignments. Each Guardian is given an aura around them. Red, Blue, Green (whatever) and enemies (mini-boss and below) are also given random auras too that match each player. An enemy with a red aura can only be killed by the Guardian with a red aura. And maybe some modes that only exist if the fire team is premade. No randoms. Like Mayhem rules with friendly fire turned enabled. Instant respawns, lots of ability energy, loads of heavy ammo, but you can kill your teammates. Scoring is based on gaining points for combatant kills, with points subtracted for teammate kills. Escort. One player cannot die and has to be escorted to the end safely. The player cannot use weapons or abilities, but carries a buff that they lose on death. If they still have the buff at strike completion every gets a guaranteed high stat exotic of the same slot as the daily Legend/Master lost sector. These are random each strike/activity, and you get an on screen message telling you what the modifier(s) is so you know the rules when you start each one. Post strike stats can also vary. Like kills per seconds. Kills per attack when using things like bombs or the scythe. Bomb passes.

          • Take out battlegrounds and add in some kind of repeat prevention so I'm not doing the same strike three times in a row.

              D2 strikes are already easier than D1. Bring back heroic strikes, and with a solo option.

                • Add animated emblems with some having a chance to drop from enemies/ triumphs. Give us a tribute hall that we can customize. -Dummies/ trophies that we can decorate our hall with. -Have them drop from bosses/ trash within strikes. -some tied to triumphs. Add graphics that we can put on weapons. Give us sight options instead of barrels.

                • Loved D1 strike modifiers, would love to see them back in D2. I mean, why not? Everything else seems to be returning. While they're at it, maybe they could throw in Strike specific loot as well. I'm sure Everworse won't mind.

                • Need heroic strikes back. Delete 2 matchmade nightfalls and add their loot to heroic strikes that actually rotate playlist and add more modifiers. Playlist for me has been dead most of D2 because running strikes just to run them is boring and repetitive and loot sucks in general playlist, while nightfall is literally just repeat same mission infinitely on probably a sad nightfall for the new weapon while a previous season weapon is on a easily farmable nightfall. Whole system is jacked when you factor in some strikes just need to be thrown out. I’m at the point I’d rather they delete most D2 strikes and replace them with d1 strikes because enemy density is better and it feels like less dungeon-lite minus the rewards.

                  • If you really want me to play strikes then we need strike specific loot. Im not talking about what we currently have either like palindrome, I’m talking about very unique and exotic looking stuff. Back in D1, there was a strike that granted a taken sword, another one had a taken shotgun. Were they the best weapons in the game? No but they were extremely unique. Thats definitely a way to start making me play strikes again, other than that the rewards at the end needs to feel more rewarding. Why would I ever run a 30 minute strike for blue loot? Or pathetic low stat legendary armor? This game is so stingy with loot that it honestly turns me off from wanting to play the game. Even the vex mythoclast drop rate for example is absurd, I saw a guy with 300 clears and still didn’t get it. After seeing that you better believe I’m not gonna waste my time ever doing the VOG.

                  • They’re gonna have to remove & replace 90% of the strikes in the game They’re bland, generic & going on for 5 years stale Bring back positive modifiers, skeleton keys, strike loot pool [b]worth obtaining[/b], focused armour & make everything (weapon wise) craftable (2-3 Redbox per weapon)
