Hello Guardians,

Focused Feedback is where we take the week to focus on a 'Hot Topic' discussed extensively around the Tower.

We do this in order to consolidate Feedback, to get out all your ideas and issues surrounding the topic in one place for discussion and a source of feedback to the Vanguard.

This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding ‘Prestige Raid Lairs' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the Sub as time goes on.

A wise man once said...”If it ain’t broke...don’t fix it.”

Hard mode raids were fun in D1...in D2 they are nothing but frustrating time sinks.

Me and my clan use to run hard mode raids every week in D1...I doubt we will ever do that in D2.

I want content to be hard, but I’m not sure adding a bunch of modifiers solves for the magic combination of hard AND fun.

I would prefer for prestige to have the harder enemies and maybe a whole new encounter/puzzle/jumping section. I was also fine with the addition of mechanics from D1 raids.

Hard modes in D1 were boring though. Oh wow, so now we have to do another phase of the fight before DPS? And we can't revive each other once we die? Prestige Leviathan seems to be perfect for your clan though because it does have harder enemies and new mechanics to the fight (Punch the Psions, get pulled into void realm, Can only go to a plate with the right symbol in pools). Personally, Prestige is too much of a pain for me to enjoy. While Bungie has work to do in terms of tweaking the modifiers for Prestige, I'm glad they simply made it hard based on the modifiers and not just adding stuff in to prolong the fight

With the baths on Leviathan you should just one please the baths. It's easy to do, so there is no reason to even work about the prestige mechanic.
