My thoughts exactly. I was more mad about this than the weapon nerfs. There is still risk involved in that method and it isn't an instant win. Oracles WILL mark you unless you are on different platforms and hit every oracle every time. A lot of the platforms you would wanna use to hit the adds and the templar are in range of the templar and even the minotaurs so it's still pretty dangerous. But what pisses me off is they are basically telling me I can't use and entire weapon type for that portion of the raid. Sniping is a strategy I like to use when I can but you don't snipe on the ground near your enemies with more waves of them showing up every second. You definitely don't snipe with 3 minotaurs spawning behind or in front of you so that just eliminated an entire style of play for the most part. I find that annoying considering if they even tested that with a Warlock they'd see you can reach every damn platform in the room no problem. I was thinking the hobgoblins got us from here now it's my turn to use it to my advantage. But no, Bungie wants us to play close quarters the way they tell us, where they tell us.

Ran the raid last night.. relic holder kills harpies, everyone else stay alive until relic special then everyone snipes.. oh and we were on ground level. Wasn't any harder than the platform.

Well I haven't tried it but I meant sniping enemies and the templar. And using a sniper at ground level to just shoot him when his shield is down is fine but I like to clear out trash with a sniper since it's faster than running around like a madman and trying to keep track of oracles too. Having maybe even 2 guys on outside helping clear and then everyone else inside keeping an eye on oracles and templar position can't be used as a strategy anymore. I don't like being limited in my choices. Also trying to use a sniper during enrage just seems like a bad idea. Idk how it worked out for you guys and I'm sure there's a way to make it work but you don't wanna be ADS when 4 minotaurs show up because they'll teleport their foot into your lower intestines and blow your head off. I'm sure it can be done during enrage but that's definitely not a good situation for a sniper. The only reason people would do it for when Shields drop is because a sniper is a high damage weapon and people feel it's worth the risk if all normal enemies have been cleared or even if only a couple remain. Then what if people want to use the interrupting his teleport method? He calls minotaurs every time for that and if you do it during enrage that's just more fuel to the fire.

True, what about the start point? Didn't notice any hobs there.. can still snipe trash mobs just have to keep an eye out for those hobs..
