Prestige mode is live! I’ll be running it with a team as soon as it goes live on Xbox one. I have roughly 8 completions on normal mode and know how to run every role on every boss in the raid, so I’ll keep my eyes open for anything that’s different!
Here I will list all the differences from normal mode to prestige mode for those who are at work/school or otherwise can’t find out themselves right away.
Drop an upvote or comment to save this in your list so you can keep an eye on the changes!
And if you’re on Xbox one and you’re looking for a good raid team, feel free to add me!

PRESTIGE MODE
———————————
Entire Raid Changes
[spoiler]Loadouts - NOT locked! :)
Revives - Just like trials. You have a revive token. Once you revive one person, you can’t revive again for that challenge or until you wipe. ALSO, if you DIE you LOSE your revive token and can’t revive anyone. So dying really takes away two revives from the team, because not only do you need to be revived, but you can no longer revive anyone else.
Enemies- all enemies are MUCH tougher. Even with a full team of 300+ it’s proven a challenge. Bring high DPS high ammo guns.
Raid Access- you can not access hard mode unless you have beaten normal mode. [/spoiler]
Listed in this weeks order
Courtyard (Opening Doors)
[spoiler]All enemies are BULLET SPONGES. Bring a very good heavy and a roaming super.[/spoiler]
Gauntlet
[spoiler]PLATFORMS - Two psions spawn after you shoot arrows. The normal one at the bottom of the arrows, and a floating one that spawns in a random location that needs shot down.
Need a different runner each time. Every person must run once!
During the last phase of running there are 3 orbs per connect-4 Wall, instead of 4.[/spoiler]
Dogs (Pleasure Gardens)
[spoiler]8 dogs now! 2 new dogs, one at rock and one at L2.[/spoiler]
Baths/Pools
[spoiler]During your DPS phase there are more bathers that spawn.
Once your first DPS phase is done you can NOT go back to your original plates. Instead the game randomly assigns 4 people a plate. When DPS is done you will see a symbol on your screen (sun, chalice, dog, axe). You must go to this plate.[/spoiler]
Calus (Final Boss)
[spoiler]No more Throne room or Void teams anymore. As soon as a throne room person kills a psion they are teleported into the void and a random person is teleported out of the void. This happens for each phase of symbols, so 3 times each run on the void.[/spoiler]
Legend of Acrius
[spoiler]Completing the final step of the quest doesn’t award an upgraded gun. The reward for the final step is simply an ornament for the shotgun that you already have.[/spoiler]
I think that’s everything! My thoughts; hard mode is not for your casual gamer. You need all 6 people to be seasoned gamers and seasoned raiders. Everyone needs to know just about every role during every fight since the random rotations force everyone to play every role. But knowing isn’t enough, you need to have good communication and the skills to execute. Just like normal mode, if one person messes up just one thing it sends the team in a downward spiral. This might not be. Raid for LFG, but more so for playing with people you know and play well with so you’re all of equal skill level.
My randoms today couldn’t beat it, but me and my friends will at some point. I gotta have that emblem! Good luck to everyone.

1 ReplyEven so if one is simply after the trophy, im going with Nightfall. Hell the rewards from either are pointless at 305 anyway.

5 RepliesWelp looks like i gotta learn the void side of Calus now
-
Yeah...I’m not doing this more than once. Just to finish the Acrius quest.
-
Not sure if it is worth it or not. Seems like slim rewards.

3 RepliesNo care to beat it. No reason to beat it. An emblem isnt that important to me. No light level increase, no new anything beyond cosmetic. Sorry bungievision, no interest in your raid and thats sad as my clans name is Raidn with your cabals out. Your raid blows.
-
3 RepliesYou put more effort into this great post than bungie did making hard mode. What’s the point of hard mode if you get a gun ornament and a headache from tedious, cheap mechanics and bullet sponge enemies
-
2 RepliesOmg, I thought Hard mode would allow the power increase. Same stuff but up to 350 power. I will pass thanx. Man, I hate to say it but for the most part Im done till the next DLC. Except to play for fun. Cant get over how much Destiny kept my interest for years and Destiny 2 only lasted 2 months. Messed up, really is.

1 ReplyThanks nice post. I guess i will be doing that once. Wow bungie thanks for nothing ! Thank god for Fortnite smh

No more bullet sponge bosses, but making every ad a bullet sponge that hits like a truck is a-ok

9 RepliesWow. So now that prestige has everyone do void/throne and gauntlet runner I wonder what they'll have us do for challenge modes.

13 RepliesEdited by Seraphim Crypto: 10/18/2017 11:24:19 PMJust a note, the four plates at Pools are called Chalice/Cup, Dogs, Axes and ([b][u]what we call it[/u][/b]) People. Sun is the plate in the center, where the symbols above it appear. Otherwise great post! EDIT: Not even an Aura as a reward? I was hoping for one.

3 RepliesThis game is going one way as it stands and that's down caluss ass hole!!! It's awful.. all that hard work to get D1 to where it was too this dog shite. Unreal. I played every raid hard or prestige on the day/ hour of release !! But this not even bothered about, what waste 3 to 6 hours of my life depending on team I get ,just to get the same gear I can get from normal mode. Oh sorry you get a emblem which you will replace with another one the next day. Serious work needs doing to this game. Shame really
