MORE ACTION LESS PUZZLES
It takes 5 minutes to complete the mechanics and then 30 seconds to melt the boss. Miss D-1 Strikes with a Boss fight that was action packed.
I would much rather enjoy an EPIC boss fight at the end of every strike/portal activity as opposed to lazy time gate sequences.

Yeah it's kind of bad when Tormentors - as bad as they may be - are the pinnacle or gameplay mechanic bosses. They're basically the only ones that require you to fully approach it as a shooter. Everything els is basically waiting for a shield to go down or activating something before shooting a static boss.

Bungie only knows of a few ways to make a fight "harder": infinite adds, spongy health pools, immune phases. Bungie only knows of a few ways to add "puzzles" to a fight: dunk a ball, stand on a plate, shoot a switch. The last time they tried anything else, we got Matterspark. The Monkey's Paw curls.

Edited by JazzyPaladin477: 10/31/2025 12:16:16 PMRemember the shield Brothers boss fight? Thats how you do damage phases if you are going to do them. Non stop action. That was my favourite nightfall.

1 ReplyI think the only D1 Strike boss that had some mechanic was the Echo Chamber Harpy (don't remember the name). I think the Nexus Mind got one too with the Age of Triumph Update. There might have been more, but it's nowhere near the number of D2 Strike bosses.

Instead you get the same copy paste health gated slop boss.
