Honestly, I feel as if though the Prison of Elders is going to be a breath of fresh air for destiny. The Crota raid was a disappointment and VoG got stale after the first few times. Four alternating arenas with objectives is going to allow for a constantly changing and interesting survival/arena experience. Plus there is going to be some sweet new loot drops and bosses included. It's like a raid that changes every week! Personally I wish it was 6 player survival instead of only 3... But either way I'm exited.

Edited by Hoggzi: 4/19/2015 3:23:00 PMI've got a sneaky feeling that it's going to be 3v3vhordes.... i don't know why but I do know that it would be a bad move to split up raid groups completely. Fair enough only a small percentage raid but the only way it would work is if you can play it more than once a week so you can run with all members etc. If you check raid statistics on the app, there's new stats for zones captured/offensive kills....wouldn't make any sense to put that there if it was just hordes. Also just to add, it seems the community is split when it comes to PVP and PVE, merging these modes would be a good thing.
