It's 2018, who else hasn't finished Osiris yet? (Destiny)

Bungie really doesn't seem to care if people have great difficulty completing some game activities. Maybe they will care when we move to other games.

Maybe we can successfully grind for superior weapons that could enable us to succeed.

The Leviathan has been beaten by a deaf team, several teams that did not communicate in any way (even HUDless), the entire raid has been 4-manned, and the final boss has been 2-manned...

At some point you have to stop blaming Bungie or the weapons, and start looking in the mirror at what the real problem is, man...

We've had discussions about how pretty much any weapon is viable throughout the raid. We've raided with Blue weapons and armor. We've raided with mostly blind teams. You seem to be one of the only people constantly complaining about content being "made too hard", but honestly, the problem lies with you and your team. The content is fine. The level requirement is fine, and the mechanics are fine (there's several ways to beat the encounters, even!).

You're a highly skilled player, Korny. It makes a difference. I will say most of the raid team I play with most often is ~50, and at times we've had some epic struggles completing certain challenges. I think we all believed we could do it eventually, though, and there's little or no complaining about the problem being Bungie. DEEP, if you and your group complain like you do here, then it doesn't surprise me you fail. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. The mental game is always an element of performance. Believing that we could always improve is what gave us the motivation to continue to refine our strategy until we found roles each of us could perform consistently. I'm not saying it's not possible that the raid is too hard for your group, but to the extent that I've ever entertained the thought, I've been surprised at how easy they can be later when we each do the right things consistently because we've built up our skills and muscle memory.

P.S. I love the raid lair.
