An arbitrary timer that just ENDS a fight in progress with no possible explanation, with the timer modified by equally silly arbitrary actions-- one of which is the LITERAL definition of "jumping through hoops" is just terrible.
What if it were rolled into a different mechanic? What if your light slowly drains during the fight, and you restore it by doing the same things you do now to get time?
I'd be all for kicking players to orbit for losing, and even for giving an extra reward for finishing before a timer expires, but in a game that has mostly removed the bullshit from the previous title, this is a bit of new bullshit I can do without.
Nah. I think it's awesome. You actually have to strategize a little bit and formulate a strategy. You could beat any nightfall in Destiny 1 by sitting back with an elemental scout rifle. We got our ass handed to us the first time we tried the nightfall week 1. By the end, we beat it with 7 minutes left to get the Rat King.
