It's Time We Retire the No Knight Strategy

I know I'm going to be flamed for this since my elitist and hardcore ideology and opinions are widely unpopular among the casual majority on Bungie.net but I will attempt to bring light on yet another cheese strategy found by the ever so cleaver Destiny community. The [i]No Knight Strategy[/i] as many of us know is a cheese strategy in which Ogres are weakened but not killed until after Oryx is staggered in order to skip the task of killing the Light Eater Knights. As you're skipping a raid mechanic, this is not a legitimate strategy, but is merely a cheese, on par with knocking Atheo off the ledge in Vault of Glass or the bridge in Crota's End. I don't believe cheeses should be condoned by the community or the developers. Just like in games like WOW, I feel cheesing and/or exploiting should be punished by a short temporary ban with your raid gear and completion taken away. Bungie should at the very least fix this exploit so raiders will be forced to complete it legitimately and possibly one day, follow in the steps of more hardcore and competitive games where etiquette, competition and difficulty is proudly embraced. Please debate, fellow Guardians and please be respectful to other's opinions. [b]EDIT[/b]: I'm not going to be able to respond to everyone. The haters are flowing through the gates once again. I asked for it though. lol

  • I spent 6 hours with a group last week just attempting this "strategy" on a Friday night. It was everybody's first time actually trying Oryx on hard which might have had something to do with it. Everybody finally left after somebody started raging, blaming everybody for not pulling their weight because he constantly died. Fast forward to the next day, found a competent group. Beat it in 2 tries of running the normal strategy. Not really a cheese though. If people want to use, let them use it. The knights are triggered by the ogres death. I wasn't aware that Bungie has stated we had to kill the Ogres right away.
