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.

    Never did a day 1 raid before but yesterday was my first time and my team also struggled at warpriest. I was doing well over 5 mil In 3-4 phases but my team couldn’t keep up. I wouldn’t say it’s an issue with contest mode being challenging, but more so your team is just not equipped to handle it. If 5-6 people are using good loadouts for damage & ad clear i can imagine contest mode being cake.
