Kings Fall Challenge Mode. Worth it or B*****it?

There's no arguing everyone wants 320 drops and people who only care about the rewards i understand you will say its worth it, but for people who have ran the raid 3 times every week you will be at least 315 and the raid is not very challenging and do not need a higher light level to become more capable of completing the raid because they have adequate gear already. Firstly the excitement of 320s should have been satisfied in hard mode with some form of smart loot. In the last 2 weeks iive received nothing of any worth. If you have a 315 chest piece you should not get lower than 315 on that character. The lack of 320 drops from the regular hard mode raid is the only reason challenge mode is somewhat relevant. This weeks challenge (the first week) is Warpriest and is nearly no change for most groups, some groups even 1 cycle the encounter, and its not a challenge even to the definition of the word. I understand that most of the player base consists of casual players but will Bungie ever make an encounter for the hardcore players? Challenge mode should give you rewards you cant get in hard mode. 320 drops aren't anything extra they've always been there you get have a 1/11 chance of your drop being 320 which are pretty crappy odds. As someone who no longer cares for the rewards available in the raid all i hoped for from challenge node was a difficult encounter aimed at hardcore players. I also would like Bungie to come out and tell us if theses "challenges" will continue in this way or if Warpriest is just a starter challenge and as we get the Golgorth and Oryx challenge the hardcore players will finally get the attention from the developers. Also, is there just one challenge per boss or will the challenge on that specific boss change? Bungie need to give some information on challenge mode ( yes i understand they want to keep some things secret but a teaser to make us actually excited wouldn't go amiss) If you agree or disagree with me comment below why, I want to see how other people feel about this. Note: I'm very tired as of writing this so if it doesn't make sense in some parts just tell me and ill fix it. NOTE: I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE 320 ARTIFACT. Some people in the comments clearly not realising this. I also dont care for gear i can get from the regular hard mode raid. The double rng in the raid is a separate issue altogether.

    If you don't care about the loot, then I don't know why you're playing this game... This game is literally ALL about the loot and rewards (as non-existent as they are...). This game isn't a challenge at all for anyone who's used a controller at some point in their life (and can use their hands in coordination with their eyes...), so, If that's all you're worried about, go play a different game. In summary, DON'T BUY THIS GAME'S FUTURE "CONTENT" FOR YOUR OWN SAKE. RUN, CHILD. GET AWAY, BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE ;n; Edit: I'm also not agreeing with bongee for designing the ENTIRE GAME'S LOOT SYSTEM like this; I hate it too... I'm just saying how it is.
