yeah I did the entire time legendary solo cause I'm sick in the head, there were parts definitely designed with having a fireteam in mind. Calus, the dark resonance rooms, the bossfigjt before Rohan sacrifices himself all had a lot of bizarre bullshit difficulty that are probably placated by having multiple people working simultaneously and drawing aggro

I feel like this Legendary campaign is the "Halo 2 Legendary" level of difficulty. It's loving hard, but very doable... even solo. It's not for everyone and I strongly recommend that if extremely hard games are not your forte then don't play legendary. Normal is fine. The +20 power you get from legendary is not worth it if you aren't having fun. But if beating your head against a wall and figuring out exactly where things spawn, when, and how to deal with that is your thing... boy legendary gives that to you in spades. It's a very good piece of hard content.

honestly yeah, my only issues are stuff that'd definitely also happen on normal like all of the smash bros poo poo the cabal can hit you with or getting suppressed over pits or getting a droppod to the back of the head. When it wasn't doing that poo poo it was really fun, even when tormentors were there

It's hard to take a lot of people in this thread seriously when they out themselves as being unable to handle basic gameplay we've seen before, complain the game is too hard (I'm a filthy casual who never did a GM lol no it isn't) and describe things they don't like as "aids". Even when they're right about something it's more like a broken clock thing. But unfortunately if you skim over like six people then the thread is actually really quiet, so I guess that's engagement.

strand is really fun in raids, I'm gonna put cigarettes out on the next fool who tries to tell me to put on a well I do feel a little lost on what to use for damage though. Wendy works, LFRs still work, but I feel like I should be expanding my horizons with the new mods and whatnot

I think jumping straight into Legendary with no build in mind besides “well…100 Res is still pretty good right?” definitely led to the campaign being more frustrating than I would have liked. Also and maybe this is a symptom of insane Destiny Brain but the asset reuse is so so noticeable now, and lampshading it with stuff like Osiris saying “wow this is just like that place on Venus!!” doesn’t make it any better.

If it’s so easy do some GMs lol. The legendary campaign became easy as hell once you realize you can skip Strand outright in some areas. Like the entire final level up to the boss you can just not use Strand. Happy Noodle Boy fucked around with this message at 00:40 on Mar 3, 2023 |

I was grappling with the new ammo finders a lot. as for the Ishtar collectiveness of it all Idk, I've never minded asset recycling and I appreciate the explanation for it. Neomuna still feels unique even if there's a DSC-y jumping puzzle or something

the forced strand sections were the worst for me since my only set of at-light gear had 18 recovery because why would you ever need recovery when you had devour. i must've wiped at the last section of headlong for like an hour before giving up and putting on an underlight assassin's cowl.

My standard gear set is something like 50ish most stats but around 100 recovery and intellect. It's generically useful. Plus star splitter scales, which are also generally useful.

GM Warden of Nothing is one of the easiest in rotation. GM Proving Grounds in it's original incarnation was loving HARD. Getting Conqueror in that season was a triumph I am very proud of. But GMs are designed to be farmable. They're generally easier than "Achievement" hard content. The Achievement stuff (like legendary campaign and day1 raiding) is on another level because you're only intended to do it once.

I don't get why they didn't tie grapple to jumping. If you're on the ground you jump, if you're in the air you grapple, if you grapple to a strand grapple point it doesn't cost you grapple charge. Give people enough grapple charges to cover the same amount of ground as any other sub-class and call it a day. It took them around two years to figure out strand? I think they need to do some house keeping on their design process.

Schneider Inside Her posted:Just can't beat this Tormentor. I'm very much enjoying redoing this fight only to get grabbed by the Tormentor and killed. It's hell good. I love it So, Tormentors are fairly easy once you figure out the strats: First, equip the one point void damage resistance booster in your chest armor slot. The damage from a grab can only take you down to a chunk of HP left with it. Which will give you time to sprint away and regen so long as you weren't stupid and ignored the adds. Without a damage resistance buff slotted the grab is usually a one shot unless you were stacking health (haven't tested this yet). Also, Tormentors are hilariously dumb once you learn their AI. We're talking "dog following a shiny red ball" levels of dumb. If you bait them right starting at phase 2 they'll just chase you all over the place while occasionally swinging a scythe ranged. You can do this picking two elevated platforms (since their speed decreases while airborne) and jump between them while the Tormentor just completely loses it's poo poo and screams in rage with every grab cycle since it desperately wants to grab you but can't quite overcome it's lack of speed compared to your aerial movement capabilities. Just keep in mind that the Tormentors can either inadvertently or intentionally bait you out of this strat if you aren't careful. The second boss fight with one has a lot of walls with two of the raised platforms you can kite with on either side of a long room, and that cheeky bastard knew to hide behind it and jabber random words at me. I almost ran out to shoot him before realizing there was that glow behind the wall.  Granted, that first time has that "AH gently caress gently caress gently caress GET IT OFF." feel to it where you try to get it away from you since they're in your face and trying to smack you with a one shot. They're definitely a change of pace from normal gameplay. But I don't think they're poorly done. I'm dreading the moment some cheeky dev decides to put three boss tier Tormentor's in a single fight or some bullshit to create artificial difficulty though. The point of Tormentors is that you can't just sleep walk through them like most normal enemies, you gotta keep your eye on it as much as possible to know when it's entering a grab or flying slam phase. Having more than one attacking at once defeats the point of the challenge and makes it somewhat luck based unless they tune the damage down.

Just gotta hope the ammo doesn't run out before you can finish the fight. Going in unprepared that first time can definitely be tense though.

Seems like a lot of the game's platformy bits straight up aren't possible with Blink, and making it work in PVP is possible if you focus a whole build around it and go into that with the expectation that it still won't be very good. Then I found out that Dawnblade has a little air dash they can use with an extra button and for gently caress's sake why not just put Blink on that button I mean god drat

The most damning evidence of how rushed and bad the campaign was is the fact that between every mission instead of a cutscene or explanation you had optional "interlude" conversation options that are completely pointless

It's worth noting that commendation rank is higher than total commendations, but I couldn't tell you what the ratio is. My assumption is that you get more rank for higher difficulty content? As with many things, I Wish The Game Explained It

just finished campaign thoughts: its like beyond light with a way more fun campaign (barring headlong). my overall ranking is: 1. witch queen 2. forsaken ?. lightfall ?. beyond light 5. shadowkeep 6. destiny 2 lightfall could definitely takes a solid third over beyond light if the post campaign story stuff is at least cool. if the raid and post raid stuff is cool that could really help a lot too.
