WARNING - Archon Priest Strike Broken After Patch 1.1.2
So apparently Bungie tried to patch the Archon Priest Strike in 1.1.2 without telling anyone and did it poorly. You can no longer snipe from above the Vex Waves spawn half way through the strike at all without risk of breaking the whole strike. I had read that you couldn't use the highest rock anymore so I wasn't even that far away. I was sniping from where you shoot the 4 goblins right when you first enter the area. I made it to the second wave just fine and then everything de-spawned and I had to go re-engage the door. [b]After killing the first wave a second time nothing else spawned and I couldn't re-engage the door, I had to just go back to orbit.[/b]
Just trying to make some other people aware so others don't have to waste their time like I did. After some more research a decent way around this is to just leave one enemy and run down there to kill it then sprint back up to the top.
UPDATE: (Thanks beedel): "This is unintentional" per bungie: [url]https://twitter.com/bungie/status/590576802713706496[/url]
Edit - added bold and attempted to clarify what is broken.

Lol that shit just takes longer... You have solar burn which makes it easy mode...
-
Maybe if people actually stopped trying to cheese, you wouldn't have a problem. Don't give me the bullcrap about it being a sniper spot, there are plenty of long lines of view elsewhere on in that area.

6 RepliesIt's not broken, Destiny just patched a game that boasts the player can create their own unique content because the strike wasn't been playing as how they intended. Seems like a catch 22, if I can't play the game how I want, but what do I know, I'm just a dumb consumer. No raid, no IB, no new content for another month. What do I care? They already have my money (as I bend over to take it in the rear).

6 Repliesgreat change ! Its the same with phogoth, if you exit the second door he will be re-chained and has full health again.
-
Took me 45 min of pure confusion this morning blaming it on lag since it was reset.
-
3 RepliesThe absolutely hilarious part is that the work around is to simple leave 1 enemy alive at the end of each wave and go down and kill him, then return to cheese spot. THAT cracks me up

1 ReplyBLAM! you Bungie. It's been 9 months like this. As is the broken rewards system. But this gets 'fixed' -first after 9 bloody months being the same 'shot' - while the rewards system can still hand out the 12th whatever exotic while another guardian is desperately seeking the same exotic. Good job guys! You sure know your priorities i.e. how to piss people off. Liked the 'no raid' response much? Here is a big FY!

3 RepliesI don't mind fighting them. It's the 1 shot kill from hobgoblins that make this a pain. We went to the rocks, killed the hobgoblins, smacked the rest of the stuff in the face.

6 RepliesEdited by An Oracle: 4/21/2015 7:42:29 PMI'm glad that after 7 months they've decided to fix things like this, rather than basic issues that should have been addressed by now. Heck, you still can't restart a story mission on anything but normal mode. You still can't skip cutscenes. But this was apparently a pressing issue. Edit: it appears this was unintentional, and is being researched by Bungie.

I played through soloing up til archon just fine. Used the spot with the rock next to the cavern above where the enemies spawn, right around where the 3 hobgoblins spawn.
-
Snipe as usual. Save one mob and come down to the bridge and kill it. As long as you kill the last enemy in the "new kill zone" it will progress the waves. Took me 4 first wave resets to figure it out.
-
Thanks Obama
-
Yeah the wave if glitch. I did it from hiding at the door. You suck if u need to snipe archon. Have two peiole with galis anf hes down in less then 30 -seconds same thing for weekly for truth
-
Yeah archon priest gets dusted in 25 seconds it's so terribly broken
-
1 ReplySo is anyone from the old Bungie even working for them anymore? They wouldn't have pulled this shit back in the day.
-
Not seeing how it's broken
-
1 ReplyI'm surprised they didn't patch the ledge u can snipe from right when u enter the Archon's area. Or did they?
-
3 RepliesDon't use the rocks so I'm good, if you need to snipe from that high you probably should git gud ;)
-
It's broken for cheesers only. Grow some balls, it's not even hard.
-
6 RepliesWhat about if you stand at the ketch?
-
Are you sure? I was just doing it earlier and everything was fine.
-
1 ReplyIm experiencing the same
-
2 RepliesI just solo-ed it and I stood in the same spot , then I wen inside the cave for the last wave nothing like this happened. Maybe its your connection bro
-
1 ReplyI don't think it's cheesing. Staying out of range of the enemy and sniping seems like a legitimate gameplay style to me
-
2 RepliesI just use my gjallarhorn and finish him in less than 30 seconds with a decent team
-
dictating how people should play a game is a great way to get them to leave >_>
