I'm someone who gets on Destiny and plays almost every day, I've put plenty of time into Destiny, I love playing the strikes and raids, they have a lot of replayability, but PoE is simply not needed. To start, the rewards are absolute crap. A shitty queens weapon, some motes of light, possibly a strange coin, and a shitty weapon from Variks? Come on. And Prison of Elders itself is so boring and repetitive. I still have so much fun with Crota and VOG 7+ months after they came out, but I haven't even played PoE for over 3 weeks because it's boring and the rewards don't even make the grind worth it.

The only true challenge in it is 35. Even that isn't really hard team work and communication. With mechanics that only require run around when objectives come up and shoot when you're safe to...really is a fun fight but it lacks a challenge if you're decently geared.
