Serious question Bungie.

In the last TWAB when mentioning the sniper rifle nerf you said it was partially due to players sitting in the back being safe. But Bungie, you’ve designed the game, especially endgame, this way. Bosses and even majors will stomp you into oblivion if you get near them. This rules out close range weaponry. How do you want us to play? In the GOS raid the finale boss has to be damaged at ranged. I really think the stomp mechanic needs looked at. Instead of the stomp, why not an AOE attack like generating a ring of fire that radiates outward? Or lightning or void. This way we could jump over it with the right timing. This would still break up dps instead of sending us into orbit. Thank you for reading. If you agree please upvote so Bungie see’s this. Edit: I’d like to thank everyone for the likes and discussion. I thought maybe someone from Bungie would respond but I guess not. Thanks again.

  • That's what I've been saying. Look at most end game encounters in this game. What happens when you run up to a boss and try to sword/shotgun/fusion rifle them? They stomp you into the next galaxy. In raids, it's pretty much a guaranteed death sentence. When they build encounters around sitting in one spot and damaging the boss who's way far away, what are you supposed to do? Kill him with a scout rifle? Look at the raids from D1. Atheon: sit on middle plate, shield against attack and shoot the crap out of him with ghally or a sniper. Crota: lol solo with sword. Oryx: this would actually work. We killed him with the Touch of Malice which was technically a scout rifle lol. But the other encounters in that raid (warpriest and golgoroth) what did we use? Triple tap snipers or Whisper. And what about good ol Aksis? Each encounter, we used snipers. Excluding the boss for some. Some liked to dark drinker him to death. Me? I always sniped him (and did most DPS that way). Long story short, we've ALWAYS been using snipers to defeat bosses in end game activities. Why is it all of a sudden the "wrong way to play" for Bungie? Boggles my mind.
