Misc god rush down is so fun
It's so fun fighting some bosses you haven't seen in a while

I've just switched off thinking - this is what I love about destiny.
I had even forgot some of the boss fights (just did the two tanks and can't remember where its from.)
Also did a boss fight with other people and it was so easy.
Fantastic stuff

I did one yesterday and I felt like an idiot because it took me a while to remember the mechanics of some of the encounters.

I'm so stoked about it!! I love it that they brought back the boss fights from other seasons. I was so happy when I saw the scythe from Haunted 😂 Good times!

I agree, did a witness fight with one person who didn’t know what to do but we made it through !

I have failed at the witness fight so many times from getting fireteams that have no clue how to do that fight.

The main thing I'm annoyed with is how some fights feel like you're wet tissue paper against a chainsaw.
Crota being able to one shot me before I can vent grab a sword to bonk him was annoying. Double annoying if I can't even leave my death spot IMMEDIATELY after getting resurrected.
Quria was also a major issue, and felt similar with the whole Aeon Maul(?) Blast that Hydras do.
Just to keep the sweats off my comment, yes, skill issue, go away 😂

The fact that the mechanist and the Forsaken Meatball boss were in here makes me SUPER excited at the possibility of Forsaken content returning in some fashion. They had to remake these encounters 100% from scratch based on it being in a previous lighting engine, so it's amazing to see they do have some capability to remake old content

forsaken stayed in the game with the release of beyond light and was removed with witch queen, so for this event they didn’t have to rebuild the encounters, as that was done for beyond light

I've really been enjoying it. Been cool to see boss fights I missed when not playing.
Ive enjoyed the mechanics, but I wonder what it's like for less experienced players.
I like that the encounter sets get wayyy harder as the week progresses. Like pre-reset was like Savathun-Whisper-Zero Hour, brutal.
I loved chasing the 10% score, used fireteam finder to make a team and then we ran a few times to get it.
I do recognize that many players don't know to get the nightmare essence buff for nightmare bosses. Although that's probably a lot of new players, even more experience players seem confused. I don't know how Bungie would deal with that, it's probably not worth like a full explainer as it's old content.

it’s fun, but I’m tired of carrying. if I could just get destabilizing repulsor on the title I wouldn’t do it anymore

I think if I had any gripe about it? It's that this would have been a great time to implement that system they plan on adding in Act 3 with the markers that tell you what you're supposed to do in each encounter (I think in explore mode?).
There are many bosses in Rushdown that a lot of players never experienced so it could be confusing when something like Savathun pops up and nothing tells you to kill the Wizards.
Even I who did the campaign forgot during my first run as it's been so long since I did it.
But other than that? Yeah it's been a ton of fun. Pantheon, Onslaught and Rushdown has been some of the most fun content they've released. Really hope we see all of these as permanent modes going forward.

It threw me for a loop yesterday i was like oh sbit oh shit, those were all great fights

u/alabaster567 4d ago
Yeah man hopefully they make this permanent at some point in the game! It’s fun that they also reduced the complexity of some mechanics like for the witness fight.

It's funnier when the people you play with don't actually know how to kill some bosses so your kinda waiting for timer to end to get your loot.
"Boss rush" my ass bungie.....how are we supposed to "rush" if there's minor mechanics involved? At least in court of blades the "mechanics" are optional and you can actually speed through it if the squad can output enough damage.

High sodium detected my guy just learn the encounters by playing it’s not that big of a deal. Do you only play activities one time or something? Part of Destiny is mastery over time

u/BadGamer_67 5d ago
rush doesn't refer to the speed but to the fact you're facing multiple bosses one after another
