Once a pond a time Crota was big and bad. Guardians feared his presence and dreaded passing the chalice of life. Then hard mode came out and this chalice of life became nothing but a distant memory. Soon guardians just forgot about the normal raid altogether and easy mode wasn't even an option anymore. Hard mode became normal and our standards were raised along with the difficulty. Guardians started looking for there next challenge after conquering this "hard mode" and were left wanting. Wanting for too long. "I'm bored"

It's because, as with everything in life, people learned how to deal with this new challenge. It doesn't mean it isn't hard or challenging. Go take a team full of newbies who've never done a raid before or seen a video walkthrough through CE if you want a challenge. I just really -blam!-ing hope they don't ramp the difficult by implementing some bogus crap like extending boomer range or randomizing sword duty based on feedback. It's already bad enough that they randomize the team that gets tped in VoG when originally anyone could choose who went.

Once upon a time, ascendant shards were rare.

The greatest challenge in both raids is no longer the raid itself, but the bugs.
-
It still is with randoms

I used to play destiny everyday, then I took an arrow trough the knee.

I remember when you used to be able to get in a hard raid without a gally
-
Tell that to my squad last night. Had to drop them and go get my hunter and hit LFG THEN yes it was easy
-
Still is. Remember when Atheon used to be difficult?
-
As a sword bearer half of the time I don't even grab the chalice haha I also suggest to my team to not use it either just to make a tiny bit of a challenge in normal mode which really is super easy mode even without the chalice haha
-
Its because of the raid itself. It forces you to become better. I do like it that way.

[quote]Once a pond[/quote] lol sorry I don't mean to be a dick but that made laugh a bit.
-
remember the time CROTA used to be fun ? i dont
-
pepperidge farm remembers
-
Ya lol
-
I still remember the night the raid opened, it took us about 4 hrs to get to Crota and then it took us about 8hrs to kill him cause we had no idea what to do and also we were kicking and inviting people cause others had to leave.

Normal is harder than hard because you get the noobs not knowing what the fukc to do! The amount of time you hear, "it's cool I have self-res" as the oversoul blows us all away. Give me 3 weird Americans, the quiet Dutch guy who's PSN always ends with NL and the annoying kid with Ghorn who won't shut up about it any day.
-
I remember watching the first hard raids on twitch and the raiders commenting "this will never be quick and easy like atheon is" now i do the crota fight for lolz when i'm bored. also the normal raid sometimes feels more difficult since people are not as disciplined to the strat :D

Used to run two raids a night on Tuesday and all the nightfalls. Just can't be bothered anymore. Will pop on for some PVP now and then but I have everything so I'm done until May.
-
I remember how I said it was impossible. 2 days later. A week later. 3 weeks later. I find it easier than Atheon.

Ugh oh
