You're missing something, Rag. (Destiny)

You do kill oracles in the Templar fight, yes. You do kill Praetorians to open the door, yes.

The difference in the Atheon fight is that AS SOON as you get teleported, you're on a timer. The players outside the portal are fighting Supplicants, which are harpies that can home in on you and ONE HIT KILL YOU. The players INSIDE are slowly going BLIND. Their screen filled with darkness to where they can't see anything. If the Relic user doesn't clear out the enemies in time or by chance dies before the grenade meter fills so they can cleanse and release the blind from the players, the party wipes.

I've run through the raid four times, Rag.

I've killed Atheon once. That's how difficult it is. Even with a team of 28 through 30's with experience we couldn't even do it. I spent ALL DAY yesterday attempting it to no avail.

Your team has to work like clockwork, and assigning teams to do a certain job is what gets you through it. Making this random will eliminate all possibility to plan ahead or an already grueling challenge.

I'm sorry you haven't done the raid to experience this, but as someone who has I can't think of a worse idea.
