Which Raid was Most Fun? (Explain Why)
Personally I Enjoy VOG and CE The Most,
Though VOG Was Both Fun and Well Made, CE Seems to have a Stronger Pull on Me, it's Short and Sweet,

I still like VoG because of its feeling and the atmosphere. The fact that you go deeper and deeper into the vault. These strange background and templar noises (wrrrruuuuuuaaaaaarrrrrr) The timey-whimey-stuff at the atheon fight. All of that makes it feel like the best Raid for me. Just to say it, i have not done the WotM raid, yet.
-
CE my favourite as it needed less jumping. I am the worlds worst jumper so VOG was frustrating, take that out of the equation and its still the best raid. I got fatebringer on my first run, nobody spoke to me for a couple of days! In my opinion Bungie really stingy not updating all the raids up the current light level each time they raise it. First year weapons still by far the best, I foolishly deleted a lot for vault space a real mistake.
-
I'm an alpha, and I remember the days of burning through VoG and it was incredibly fun, and I still say it's one of the more difficult. But when it comes to fun, actual laughing with my friends the first few runs, it has to be Kings Fall. It is the longest raid by far with 4 boss sections. It has multiple jumping puzzles. The front door alone with the portal. Ships. And doorway are incredibly fun and were quite challenging for the first tries. Once challenge modes came out it added new intensity. Out of all the raids it utilized full team cohesion better than any others.
-
VoG not because of nostalgia (I've only done it in year 2) but because once you get really good at it, communication isn't needed. That leaves you free to chat and have fun with your raid group and build friendships. Plus it makes it so much fun. It's also not too long like KF but is longer than WotM and is the ideal time for a raid.
-
I feel crotas end could be a lot more fun if they changed something's. Like making lamps more challenging. Make it where your going to need to stay together to survive. Like make the lamps last longer before blowing up but take longer for the darkness to go away. Some how fix the bridge. Were you have to build it

12 RepliesIt amazes me how every time one of these posts is made, VOG is above all else. It's purely nostalgia, because that and year 1 itself were not nearly as superior as so many people claim.
-
4 RepliesVault of glass is my favorite still because in my opinion it was the most thought out. Still run it from time to time with a few friends, one of which I met in my first raid over two years ago
-
i like Kings fall because its the only time the final boss wasn't "Hit it til it dies" If we're talking about the full raid then Wrath of the machine. It felt much more like a team effort but didn't require too much communication. It felt just right.
-
Crota's end, because at one point I could solo it on my hunter

1 ReplyVault was the right mix of environments and mechanics vs shooting. CE... I can solo. Have beaten 100s of times 2 man. KF was just way to heavy on the mechanics. People would demand a wipe after anybody died. WotM is a lot fun, but nobody wants to do it for fun. Except some friend who want the OP quest. Then we need to do that dumb puzzle room and they can't understand it for some reason...

Edited by Benzene21: 1/4/2017 4:28:35 AMCrota was the most fun because it is less repetitive than the other raids. Nothing beats that first part and being a swordbearer. VoG is basically a strike in the first half (just waves of enemies). KF was fun but bosses had similar mechanics (not oryx), so it felt repetitive. Same with wrath.
-
VoG by default due to sense of difficulty and achievement for winning. I'm a year one player on PS4. Nostalgia is not why I choose this raid. Every raid since has not been up to par. CE I can solo, that's not a raid then but rather a strike. KF, wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy overly complicated for the new player. Sherpa was difficult at the very best and if one person dies the entire encounter is usually over due to wipe. Did have some element of fun and accomplishment when finished but that rarely happened. PoE not a raid, Skolas was easy and can be soloed now with swords. WotM comes close but with our level being higher than the end game boss, it's easier and doesn't give me that sense of accomplishment.
-
I see the word amazing in this post a lot. Know what's amazing? How many people can't get the gist of Aksis phase 2. Amazing.
-
Can I just explain all of them? Wrath of the Machine This raid is very fun, from honing your skills as a bootleg football player and slamming Aksis' back. The music for each section gets me hyped and the only reason it wouldn't be number one is because Vosik is a major asshole sometimes. King's Fall The least fun... I swear to god. I love the music, I love the gear (sometimes), I love the bosses, but the mechanics get in the way too much. This causes teaching new people or having people not knowing what to do but hiding it a severe pain in the ass. That and most people sitting there like stationary targets make death easier, and usually when one fireteam member goes down, the rest of the fight is nigh-impossible. Crota's End I hate this raid with a passion. It would be fun if it wasn't the glitchiest thing in Destiny. The lamp accidentally blowing up the second you come near it, the bridge, the deathsinger wiping you after you kill her, the Crux not dropping, Crota getting up too quickly, etc. It's all bullshit. Vault of Glass While the Confluxes and Atheon can get irritating, it takes longer to teach new players King's Fall than to teach them VoG. Killing a Gorgon is exhilarating and grouping up in the middle to take down Atheon can be loads of fun.

5 RepliesI like VoG and CE but I enjoy CE a bit more. It's fast paced and I have a friend that I always do it with. We two man it mostly. I just did the whole thing with him yesterday.
-
For me CE, cause I can solo it and I enjoy the boss fight.
-
1 ReplySkolas. Only 1 problem though, it's not a raid :( and assuming it's not being cheesed. It should have been a raid though. Fun game mechanics you see nowhere else. Standard add-clearing aside as that's just a chore, but better when combined with the mines. No checkpoints leading up to him gave a level of difficulty and commitment. Those burns though...looking at you Hive room. Too bad the shitty rewards made most of my friendlist not want to do it.
-
Edited by Weemzy: 1/3/2017 2:04:22 PMDefinitely VoG as it has a nice mix mechanics and gunning and a nice journey. I also liked Crotas end when it wasn't being cheesed.
-
Vault was the best because it was the first raid which set an example for the rest... kinda.
-
Vault of Glass was the most fun in my opinion. None of the other raids really gave me the same feeling of awe. My first Atheon kill felt like a huge accomplishment since my team and I were so under leveled and we didn't have oracle disruptor weapons. [spoiler]Plus Fatebringer dropped from VoG!!![/spoiler]
-
Vault of Glass was fun, Crota's end was short, boring, full of glitches and bugs, and I only did it to raise my light. King's Fall was tedious and took forever because when I asked for people that knew how to do the raid, I meant I wanted people that had actual experience because I wanted to get it done in an hour, and I have yet to complete Wrath of the Machine because people just decide to leave whenever they want instead of saying, "Hey, I'm leaving in like 10 minutes, you should probably look for someone else so your entire team doesn't leave while you are looking for a 6th!"
-
1 Reply1 - Wrath of the Machine, short and intense (if you know what I mean). No puzzles if you skip the monitors yay. 2 - Vault of Glass, fun group activity but oracles takes forever. Best weapons dropped here. 3 - Crota's End, nice as a solo challenge. The hunt for Necrochasm was real. 4 - King's Fall, this near-endless maze was barely fun. Did I mention I hate puzzles?
-
Being a player since launch, VOG was like the best thing ever. With the race to finish the raid, secret chests so on and so forth it is probably the best because it was the first. Since then everyone to an extent knew what to expect with bosses, mechanics etc. so for me personally VOG was the best constructed raid of them all.
-
I'm a masochist when it comes to video games, so King's Fall is my favorite. Never played much of year 1.
-
Im a year two player, sadly I didn't have the experience of doing Crota or atheon when I'm year 1 but I liked kings Fall way better than The new one, the new one is fun but to short and somehow Kingsfall was way more awesome
