  • Now that Vault of Glass 2.0 has been crushed to bits, I feel like I can give some thoughts on what changed, how it changed and how I feel about said changes. But overall, Bungie did a very good job with Vault in Destiny 2 and I look forward to seeing how other Destiny 1 raids will be revamped, should they ever come to Destiny 2.

    I really liked this version of vog. It’s hard enough where you can’t exactly fall asleep, and it’s pretty fun too. Also I agree about the two emblems thing, I did the contest mode but not challenge mode, and I was kind of sad knowing that I wouldn’t get an emblem for it even though it was still very challenging

    • @TigerBears11
      @TigerBears11 Před 3 lety +24

      I’d be a little sadder over getting the contest completion but not a challenge completion if the emblem was better. I think the 10 Sherpa emblem is infinitely better than another black raid motif emblem that isn’t even recognisable as something you’d get from VoG.

I just don’t think the in-game reward for the second run was worth the hassle when I know I wouldn’t have had the time, and I think there should be more acknowledgment for players who finished the standard contest mode.

      A quick and dirty explanation of how easy Nu!Templar is: I had never played VoG before. I elected to learn how Relic works for that encounter because sure, why not, I might need to do it later, what the hell. I proceeded to whiff every. Single. Teleport block. And besides stripping the shields contributed nothing to DPS. We still got it first-try. And I got a lovely triumph out of the deal.

It was first put into place with Crown of Sorrow.

    I think the importance of the relic was intentionally decreased by Bungie with this rerelease. I remember them stating a while back, with the Crota’s End sword as an example, that they wanted to avoid situations that put too much responsibility and importance on one player’s skill out of the group. The nerfed relic and decreased importance of its abilities bring it more in line with the other roles for each encounter.

      100% agree that this raid is better than d1 version but curious where it places on your list of all raids(assuming you have played all)
      My list:
      1. WotM 2. LW 3. SoS 4. VoG(d2) 5. DSC 6. KF 7. Levi 8. SotP 9. CoS 10. VoG(d1) 11. GoS 12. Crota 13. EoW
      a few side notes for the list GoS day 1 experience is top 3 along with LW and VoG(d1)/KF one of the d1 raids at least
      CoS ghalran is easily in my top 3 boss fights ever but first encounter is so awful it falls way behind
      Crota was a fun gimmick raid to solo but not really a raid hence so low despite being fun however EoW is just so bad it still is ahead of it
      Levi is probably not as good as SotP but it was d2 first raid so gets a little bump for me as its got fond memories(also levi speed run week is amazing)
      SoS gets a lot of hate but as you can see its in my top 3 i think people just are scared of it because the raid is actually really hard compared to average destiny raids but with practice becomes really chill and fun
      WotM probably has the best boss fight ever created the best supporting boss(maybe atraks can compete for that or war preist) and it easily has the best encounter ever created in the game with it being Zamboni that shit was just incredible and so refreshing

    The Templar's lower damage is based on the Rez tokens. It was fine to die randomly in D1 because in 30 seconds you were back, now however you only have 6 tokens.

  • @JJMomoida
    @JJMomoida Před 3 lety +20

    To be honest, been playing since vanilla D1 and the nostalgia goggles are fully off. Even back in D1, I felt Vault of Glass was just... eh. Baby's first raid, I guess. My preference has always leaned towards more mechanically dense raids such as King's Fall and Last Wish. This isn't to say VoG is boring or anything. I just don't have much nostalgia for it and it's not my preferred length as far as raids go. This past week has been interesting cause I've been in a few groups of D2 players and D1 "vets" so I've gotten to hear all kinds of opinions on this. From the "that's... that's it?" (mostly coming from D2 players) to the "FUCK YEAH"s (mostly from D1 vets).
    From a development standpoint, it's interesting to see which mechanics Bungie has attempted to iterate upon over the years. I thought it was cute that they brought back the Golgoroth-esque "GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM PEOPLE" mechanic with the detainment at Atheon. From what I've seen on social media, some people are pretty split on the oracles having an order? I personally don't mind it, but as someone who depends on LFG 99% of the time, it's been a struggle sometimes. Hell, that one "that's it?" came from someone in an LFG group after us being stuck at oracles for like, two hours... and then killing Atheon in 20 minutes... lol. Anyways, I'm fine with this change.
    All in all, a fun experience. Will probably run it weekly until I get Mythoclast. It's a fun raid, but not fun enough that I'd run it just for the hell of it like I did with KF and Wrath.
    Edit: A small thing I would love to see them bring back is... just... MORE blurbs of flavor text that appear in the combat feed. The "Guardians make their own fate" that shows up when Time's Vengeance adds a lot of flavor to the damage phase. It not only alludes to the fact that guardians are paracausal, but it's also like a big middle finger to the vex and just kinda... hypes you up for the damage. It's a sort of "go get em, kid" from the devs... lol... And I wish they used it more. Not in every fight, of course... but I do feel like there are key encounters where you can use the combat feed to convey that it's "time to fuck shit up" in a way that resonates with the player.

    • @user-eh1gc7xo7q
      @user-eh1gc7xo7q Před 3 lety

      I feel the same about VOG. Nostalgia blinds me for most of it, mainly the memories of what happened between friends playing it then the gameplay itself. The Raid itself, like you, has always been mediocre in my opinion. Part of that was it always felt so calm doing it, when I enjoy tension and constant communication. I suppose that feeling has increased when comparing it to every other raid, as for the most part Bungie improves them with each new one. I also rely on LFG, and I think many almost wanted it to be better than it was. A few tried to make it sound better but honestly I could tell they didn’t enjoy it.
      The mechanics of the oracles are pretty good. Requires some communication, and was fairly easy to get a hold on how to create a system.
      Overall though, a raid that is pleasing to run through but not necessarily challenging and lacked teamwork skills I think are necessary.

    My only complaint on the day one challenge. For some reason my team had alot of glitches. The tower to open the door randomly disappeared on us after it was almost complete. Took another hour to build it again. Anti barrier mods did not work. Ammo finders did not work. At some points no heavy bricks dropped for us for almost an hour despite having ammo finders for heavy. Other than that it was fun and hopefully I will have the day off again when the next one drops.

    2 things me and my raid team do during the Atheon fight:
    1) with the floating harpys that spawn in the air, we always leave one alive on each side, that stops more from spawning (its now a meme with us that we say that every time we start the encounter). yes you have one sitting there sniping with its laser beam but better than then continuous respawn.
    2) the team that gets teleported, they immediately grab the relic and run to the far end of the room, as you essentially spawn in where Atheon is, so we run to what is essentially the normal spawn location, and the non-teleported team we have the caller stand there as well. this way everyone has the same view, makes the oracle calls easier.
