You definitely have a point. It's just kind of shocking that it took the world's first VoG hard mode Invigorate 15 hours - compared to less than half an hour here. Even if this group cheesed as much as possible, TripleWreck's team beat Crota Hard in about 40 minutes with no cheese. And I think the main reason this went so much quicker is because Bungie didn't really introduce new mechanics/puzzles to figure out - they just leveled up the enemies.

There's another major difference between the first VoG hard mode runs and today's Crota runs. The first teams to attempt VoG on hard did so pretty much right after completing it on normal mode for the first time. Since Bungie separated the release of the hard mode raid from the release of the normal raid this time, the teams that are running Crota today have had a couple of extra months to find their rhythm. The only real difference they'll face today is having to put a couple of extra rounds into most of the enemies.

Just out of curiosity, how fast were people running hard mode VoG a month after it was released?
