Kings Fall Day 1 Experience and Feedback

Hey yall, just want to critique the balance of the day 1 kings fall experience and the day 1 raid experience in general. In short, the damage required for the first boss in DSC, VotD, and kings fall makes the event inaccessible. My clan has been damage gated at the first boss for all 3 of these raids. It's understandable that Bungie wants a solid dps check to make the raid race more competitive, but it's been a bit much for Atarax, Caretaker, and Warpriest. I hope Bungie can do some testing to find a better health total for these bosses. I'd rather not have to prepare the absolute best dps currently available. I think destiny is better when people can use what they enjoy most within reason. My team couldn't get Warpriest presumably because we didn't all have the new linear with firing line combined w either Izi or wither hoard. In conclusion, we are always excited for this event. Raids are special and require teamwork and friendship to figure out on day one. We'd rather be forced to figure out difficult mechanics than be forced to run the same load out as everyone else. Thank you to anyone who's reading this. Did anyone else have a similar experience? Cheers to all of us who will beat this first try tomorrow after challenge mode is disabled.

    Yeah, I have to agree. The LFG team I was with had one solid run where we got as long a damage window we could every time and used all 4 damage phases with Izanagi-swapping Stormchasers, Wells and a Div, barely did 60% of Warpriest's health. That despirited us, because we had no idea what we could do to almost double our damage when everyone was using meta loadouts and playing well. Everyone has to be using a meta loadout, play flawlessly, stack every buff and debuff at all times [i]and[/i] the whole team has to get lucky with ammo all throughout. Having seen what Warpriest Challenge Mode is, I'm astonished that any team was able to beat it, given how much DPS time you have to sacrifice just to avoid an instant wipe.
