World Boss and High Level Patrol
I support World Bosses. I also support higher level patrols.
New World Type Bosses should be made.
Edit 1: Please read the whole post before commenting please.
And they should do like Star Wars the Old Republic did it, have them in specific areas on the map, and not Random, instead having a "Button" of sorts that activates the World Boss. Much like the pile of bones in the Ol' Loot Cave.
But it would require increasing the patrol Guardians from 3-6 but preferably 9.
World Bosses in most games are meant to be taken down by very very large crews, basically they are meant to be taken down by all players in the current world. And on say an earth patrol, you really dont want to be hashing out with a World level boss with a bunch of level 5's at your side.
Oh!! Even better idea!!
A new Patrol button, World Boss Patrol, party size 6, Level Requirement of 32, This way all people in the instance are at least 32. Once the "button" is pushed an alert goes out to all people on the planet. "The World boss has been awakened, backup your fellow Guardians!" Giving all players in the instance time to get there, and it will require a minimum of 14 players to take him down within a decent amount of time. 6 players could do it, but it would take forever.
And not some silly bullet sponge, A legit boss. A giant Ogre, bigger than Phogoth. An even more powerful Gatelord.
And no Gimmick crap. No Death Containment bubbles, setting fire to the world, none of that. Minor enemy spawns little peons that normally spawn there, all red bar. No Yellows.
Also the Bosses should be Red skull bosses, something 3-6 Guardians simply cannot take down by themselves.
Areas for them to have their Spawns:
Moon
-Hellmouth, MF climbs right out and onto that platform.
Venus
-Over where VoG Starts, MF either A. Smashes right out of the Vault, or B. Cutscene of a Giant Vex gate opening at the bottom of the cliff and he climbs up.
Earth
- Forgotten Shores, A. Comes up out of the ocean right there starts wreaking Havoc. B. Ketch Lands and drops off the Big Bad.
Mars
- Mars is a Tough one for me as im not sure of a very good place for a world Boss there.
But there is all my idea for it. and i apologize for the length.
Please add you comments and ideas below. I feel like this would breathe a lot of new life into patrols for higher level players. Once the level caps increase a third Patrol option should be added increasing the levels of all enemies on the planet again including the level of the world bosses.
Edit 2: For those of you who dont know what a world boss is, there are some great videos on youtube, and information to be found on google to give you much more in depth idea of what this is, normall i would provide all that information but it would make this post far too long.
Edit 3: I would like to tie in this post to this as it could make a Good reward, or tie it in with something else as a reward. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/132380341/0/0
Edit 4: I would also like to Tie this post in done by @Dead Arashi. It would make a great tie in, and the Currency in his post could be a main drop from the World Boss. Here is his post. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/128964822/0/0
Edit 5: By instituting a lvl 26 and up patrol they could bring back the Blades of Crota and have them there, and by instituting a 30 and up, you have a place for wolves, by instituting 34 and up you have a place for the new TTK one. Appalled i hadnt thought of this before as it keeps special things from each expansion relevant to the player and providing them places to do it while leveling through that expansion.
Edit 6: A lot of people are telling me they are adding something similar to world bosses in Court of Oryx. Until they reveal this i will not say it is a world boss, but i will say player activated events is a start. Hopefully if it goes well, they will add more in an update to the other worlds. I hope it is done right and is epic but i am reserving full opinion until i physically play one. If they do and its right i hope this post gains even more support and grows even more, maybe we can get it all that we want here!

I feel World bosses would have to be unrelated to the core of the story and not associated to any of the races. It wouldn't make sense to have a hive world boss stronger than a god king oryx. For instance, a cthulu inspired boss with side lore but no real importance to the main story.

World bosses yes higher patrol no. i leveled up the enemies in the areas did not.

3 RepliesMy only problem with this idea is this: [quote] Red skull bosses[/quote] When mobs are Red Skull you cannot deal damage to them, like they straight up do not take any damage whatsoever. At least that's how it was in vanilla and I highly doubt it was changed, but who knows.

Love it

2 RepliesI love the idea of high level patrols for six man teams where there are some serious enemies as well as bosses. But worlds bosses? Yes, yes and yes. Get some vehicles in there too for some large one that takes a lot of firepower.

Alot of mmo games already done things like that. Hell ragnarok had items to summon a random boss anywhere except in towns.

6 RepliesGuild wars 2 had something like that. You would have 20 to 50 toons hanging around where the dragons would attack and there were critters there you could thump on while waiting. When the dragons finally attacked, the numbers if players would swell to uncountable. During the fight if someone went down a complete stranger would be healing you to continue the fight to get the big loot chest at the end. Good times......good times. And a capital idea! Bungie should send u a tshirt for causing a great trend with this post. :-)

3 RepliesWorld boss with a patrol of 30-50 people. I would love to see a massive boss that takes 50 rockets and just laughs.
