Rank 11 is ridiculous

So I just wanted to rant for a minute on Rank 11 requirements, specifically the solo dungeon completion. Soloing dungeons is never really something I cared too much about. For me the game is better with people, and whatever I gotta do to get the pinnacle and move on to the next level, I'm gonna make it as streamlined as possible. BUT I'm very much a completionist, and as soon as ranks dropped I knew I wanted rank 11. If only to say to myself I have the skill to get to it. I sat down this afternoon and built my char, got my backup weapons, stocked up on rallies, and set to it. Smooth sailing until I get to Akelous and get him down to 1/4 health. Really feeling like this is doable and almost at the finish line. Get SLAPPED with a "connecting to destiny" error and get sent to the login screen and put into a login queue. All it took was a quick google to find out that I'd completely wasted my time and was gonna have to start over fresh. I love this game, have since day one. It's almost the only game I've played dedicatedly since it released. Even through all the instability, all the bugs, all the server errors, the weekly 12+hr downtime, I've come back to it time and time again and got back to it. But this specific completion is ridiculous, and I'm spicy mad that I'm sitting here wasting my time on getting a SINGLE completion to get me to rank 11 on a game that just isn't stable enough to allow it. I (and many people) don't have the time to absolutely waste to complete this if the game isn't even stable enough to let you stay online. Allow completion with checkpoints, allow people to go to orbit, make a TINY concession towards people who have stuff going on in their lives. Sure rank 11 is "supposed" to be the elite in the game, the best of the best PVE wise I guess. But this waste of time piled on top of months of downtime bugs has me so ill I'm thinking Guild Wars 2 is looking especially fun right now. I hope if any of you out there feel the same way I do, you'll say something. That's all, from one lifetime game player to someone at bungie that hopefully sees it. *steps down off soapbox* [spoiler]Moderator edit: This thread has been updated with tags that are more appropriate.
