Different raid strategies for different platforms. (Destiny)

I'm on PS4 and have noticed differences just raid crew to raid crew.

First time I ran Golg we did the crate thing, but distracting with one guy in the back is waaaay easier.

Sisters/oryx platforms I've got through a lot of iterations of what to call them, and the one my raid uses now is that the first platform to be jumped on (regardless of where it is) is platform #1, and the same guy is always platform 1, the same guy is always 2, etc.. That leaves one guy as a "swing" for sisters if a platformer is in the shadow realm, or for oryx if someone dies. This is not really a strategy I'd use with a new player, but with experienced people who get the fight mechanics, it is super easy and keeps everyone's role and timing the same.

I like that approach, but I'd like to have that approach for both the sisters and Oryx fight. Sometimes I've had people want to do it one way for sisters and another way for Oryx.

Why on earth would you change in the middle? It's the same dang room and the same dang mechanics!

That's what I said, er, thought. People have strong feelings about raid strategies.
