Nexus and Phogoth removed from the campaign?

So I'm playing through the campaign with a buddy of mine who's new to the game and I realized the story passes right over the nexus and phogoth strikes. They're on the map and playable but theres no longer a mission tied to them. I loved those. Why are they no longer part of the story mode? It's bad enough they were removed from every vanguard playlist. Year 2 players probably don't even realize they exist

  • I think I read something somewhere about them being re-vamped?

    • The first time I defeated sepkis prime was a pretty awesome moment in gaming for me. A huge floating mechanical eye ball that these weird aliens worship. It was kinda unreal man. Even though there isn't as much content as we would like doesn't make this a crap game. They really did do some awesome stuff and people need to acknowledge that. I'll be happy to do these revamped strikes.

      • The Thorn exotic bounty had that super wizard in the Phogoth Strike that was damn near invincible during vanilla.

        • I miss these strikes SO MUCH!! It was good bringing back the archon priest strike but you can't beat phogoth, the nexus and sepiks prime

          • I think it's kinda strange. They tied in some of the Venus missions to HoW, and The Archive to the Sleeper Simulant. Not sure why they didn't just do the rest as well. Seems kinda half-assed to me.

              • They were two of the missions that are being redesigned for RoI.. so it's possible it's only temporary until RoI releases.. just a guess tho..

              • Also some story missions were not put into quests too. Shrine or Oryx, The Archive, The Buried City. Quite disappointing really.

                  The nexus is relevant if you're on PlayStation because it's referenced in the restorative mind strike. Phogoth was kinda just a threat to us but nothing more.

                • None of the strikes did in year one. Those quests that ask you to complete devil's lair etc also did not exist. Heck you could skip some story missions like the Draksis mission as it was more of a side quest.

                  • Never apart of the main story progression. They were optional, only strike that added to story was the devils lair in vanilla, and then omnigul in tdb

                  • The only strike that ever was part of the Story was Devil's Lair, the rest were optional and just added story, also Taniks and Omnigul are both core story strikes now as well. I really liked seeing the re-ordering of the story when TTK came out because of how early we got to play a lot of the missions. DB started at like level 9 or 10 and you got Murmur before Strangers Rifle. HoW started at around 16ish and was part of the Venus storyline.

                    • I just want Sepiks, Nexus, and Brogoth to come back up to date with possibly a couple of surprises. [spoiler]Like the heavy pikes in the Winter's Run strike.[/spoiler]

                      • No strike in vanilla Destiny was ever included as part of the main story progression. I should know, I finished the entire story before ever doing a single strike. Omnigul was the first strike that was part of the main story line. It was the final step in TDB's story.

                          • I wish they would add these strikes to the heroic strike list. It's stupid As hell that they took them out In the first place. This addition by subtraction shit that Bungie pulls is ridiculous. I'll give them some slack just in case it's because of legendary consoles, but for RoI they better not be getting rid of stuff!

                            • The Archives mission as well as the Askor strike are skipped over as well. Scourge of Winter (The Draksis mission) is in a questline, but takes place in the wrong timeframe.

                              • Ttk was pretty well setup with the questlines but the "story" mode was f'd up somewhat. They attempted to salvage & reorganize what was an already butchered storyline. It really saddens me what the vanilla Destiny storyline was supposed to be and what it has become :'(

                                • As I recall. Strike missions weren't a part of vanilla destiny story. Once you were high enough level to play them, you could get a bounty that asked you to kill said strike boss.. but they didn't flow with the story per say

                                • There's a Vanilla mission on Mars where you have to stop the Vex from protecting the gate to the Garden. They could change it and link it to the Undying Mind where after the events of Vanilla, Vex are attempting to seal the gate. After destroying them you would start the Strike to find out why they were protecting it.
