Virtually the same experience. (Destiny)

Everyone's had that in this game I think. Doing Sexy Prime, hiding on the walkway, and the other guy is standing by the subway car. "The fuck is he doing?" You go over there. Turns out it's a perfectly legit way to take the encounter.

In fact, in just that particular mission, which I do not find remarkable, I personally have done it in plenty of different ways as I evolved as a player. I started by hanging out by the thing the ghost was cracking. Then I did it on the walkway. Then I tried from the entrance to the room where the Crota wizard is sometimes. Then I tried it from the subway, and as I became better at the game, me and friends have started just running to where the bad guys spawn and killing them there for added fun.

Then there's the tank. Snipe from the entrance, snipe from the far left, those are pretty similar. But you can do it mid range from under the bridge. You can take out the middle adds and get him with auto rifles close to the tank from the left pillars or the right hallway. You can run up and shotgun him in the neck. You can blow off his legs, or blow off his shank dispensers, or blow off his secondary cannon.

Then the Sepiks Prime battle. Take him from the top, take him from the bottom, take him from the middle, hide in the right room with the shank bags killing adds as they show up and taking potshots at sepiks when you can, use bubble titans at the entrance and just stand there, hide in the left room and snipe through the window etc. The boss room has fewer meaningful options than the other encounters in the strike, but even that fight now has changed substantially. I used to go on the right and spend a lot of time killing adds. Then I would hide on the left and snipe him through stairs. Now I just shoot the piss out of him wherever and become a burden on my teammates as they revive me.
