Crown of Sorrow Is and Was a Huge Flop, and that is sad
IMO COS is the worst raid 'lair' experiance we have had so far in Destiny.
The setting is unimaginative and bleak. The armor is meh. The guns are meh. And the associated exotic is so awful no one uses it in any situation, ever. The mechanics and requirements also seem like just a phat pain rather than fun and interesting.
Bungie need to learn from this one. If you view my profile on raid.report I have a lot of raids completed. I really enjoy them. I also really enjoyed Niobe Labs.
I havent even done CoS. I dont see the appeal and I dont see the point.
Thoughts?

3 RepliesI disagree with everything you said except the loot. The loot is mediocre...but that has been true of every Destiny 2 raid. The only weapons really worth chasing are the exotics....and even that is questionable given the brutally low drop rates. I think Crown of Sorrow (except for the final boss battle) is one of the best raids since Wrath of the Machine. Having to manage buffs that only allow you to damage certain enemies brings back memories of the Skolas fight in Destiny 1.....but COS is a lot better and a lot more fun to play. My only issue is with the final boss fight which is more of the same stand-and-deliver damage dump that is so often the case with Destiny 2 raid boss fights. There are only so many variations of the Golgoroth fight you can stomach before it simply gets stale and not-very-enjoyable.
