if we're being accurate, that particular part is what he was wrong about. More than one team infiltrated the monolith. Only one crushed the Witness' hold on the light.
This raid reminded me of the quote from Orin back in Season of the Drifter when she spoke about how we are different because we can "leave the game". Similarly, Elsie chose to stay in our timeline because our Guardian was somehow different in this timeline. I believe it is perfectly represented in the Verity encounter as the only way to win is to spectate other Guardians while dead; something the Witness could never have planned for. I absolutely love how breaking the 4th wall is our key to victory.
Dude when the witness started edging and yell “I am final shape” before finaling his shape over the community, I have never seen anything more beautiful
@@AllTheNamesIPickedWereTaken Exact same here, I was 13 in year 7 enjoying destiny with the boys hating on being hard capped level 29. Now i'm in my last year of my optometry masters, bought my first house and soon to be engaged. life is crazy but it's good to come back and see how far we've come.
I haven't even seen this in my subscription feed yet! I just happened to already be watching the Raid Series Playlist again (showing it to my hubby this time), and noticed you dropped this banger! 🤘🏽😎 Right on Evan. Thank you for all the hard work you put into these man. The community really enjoys & appreciates it. And many thanks to you & CB for the amazing RaidZone show you host every World's First contest now. I've watched it's evolution since the very 1st one, and I'm really proud of where you've taken it since it's beginnings. It's my go-to spot now for every WF race. Eyes up, Guardians!
I understand why they mute the comms, because thats the place everyone strategizes, but i dont think that its neccesary to block the entire screen, because you would need to watch all team member screens at the same time to understand the encounter and even then there will be a lot of chaos.
I think its because most of these teams have a "coach" that watches the other streams and informs them on what the other teams are trying and what fails or succeeds. So they black out the stream to prevent this. That's my guess. I'm not saying I like it kinda pointless to stream a raid when 90% of the time you aren't seeing the raid itself.
no you wouldnt have to watch the entire team, less than a minute after ATP unblocked their screen on witness fight, another team was already watching and calling out every single thing they did, everything they tried, everything they got wrong and everything they got right. literally less than 60 seconds before another top teams streamer was stream sniping live and calling out strats. stream sniping is bannable on twitch btw lol. just 1 person watching 1 other persons stream gained them a massive advantage as it gave them hours worth of ATPs legitimately learned info 1 5 minute attempt
The point about hiding comms, buffs and screens. I think sweatcicle's point about redeem never hiding comms in their world firsts is valid. They just shared important info in discord. I dont think streamers should be ruining the fan experience when these are the biggest numbers they will get all year.
Sweat, Gladd & Leopard were 3 of them I watched that didn't mute comms. I think Kackis might have muted comms, but kept video going. Because Gladd didn't go black-screen, I subscribed to his channel. I didn't mind muted comms, because a lot of info is given verbally + text chat. I DO have a problem w/ signing up for a streaming event that makes you money for streaming... and you give viewers Blackout. They should have either not signed up for TR (like Parabellum did not), or ended their streams.
Yeah I agree, there were streamers hitting back at people online who complained about black screening, people have a choice whether to watch but streamers should not be allowed to sign up to twitch rivals and gain the money from viewership emblems unless they are showing the full race.
@@gazzacfc2010Steeamers nedda stfu frl like igaf about “bwut bwut we wanna win da wace and have and advantage” like sylau frl this a day 1 raid race bungie wants the community to unite and enjoy the show, but nah we got rhese virgin dweebs covering their screen instead of having a full blown competition
I hope y’all speds realize that it’s a race, they are trying to win it which means doing anything to get that w. Some people wanna win and some wanna just have fun and entertain, if you were racing and were good at the game like some of the top people you would do the same.
I love love love the design of Verity. The visuals of the light and dark realms, the way you can see the dark realm creeping in at the edge of your screen at all times, and the chilling sight of your calcified fireteam and the whole concept of needing to save yourselves from your certain death.
About the muting comms and hiding screens: It makes sense why they do it and I support the fact that they're so competitive they want to get every little advantage they can get, however, if they're going to straight up full mute and completely hide the screen for hours, they might as well just not stream at all, heck, I think that might be more beneficial to them just because their PC doesn't have to handle the stream on top of the game and discord
I get it, and partially agree, but part of me wants to believe that because Parabellum didn't have a public stream going; that allowed them to focus more on the Raid itself than stressing about giving away nuggets of information to competitors. That's not to discredit the skill of any of the teams, but I think when you don't have to worry about other teams ever knowing you're in the race, that you can focus more on what's important.
Find it very weird for the D2 community to react like this when this has been the common norm for any other mmos in raid races, the only reason WoW streams their world race is because the top teams get heavily sponsored and paid to do so.
no rheres nothing to get stop trynna back up these loosers, bungie should bann muting comms and covering screens mext time, this is a time bungie wants us to enjoy and unite as a community, but some dweebs had to “have an advantage” this a competition to see whos best, get that 😸 shii outta here
Streamed this day 1 to a couple of my friends from school. They had no idea what was going on but just wanted to see my reactions when I beat it the next day lmao, I didn’t even get past first encounter on day 1.
@@endofjimmyz I care more about having good team mates then caring about peoples feelings. I don’t go out of my way to be an asshole but I’m definitely capable of it.
@@kylekilgore291The fact that you feel the need to call your teammates "mentally challenged" tells me that you're more than likely 100% the reason your team didn't make the clear.
It took my team 25 hours to complete. I choose to believe that it truly was 25 hours of radio silence to the vanguard till we left the monolith to chase daddy darkness down again
Don't forget that during the Day 1 of the Last Wish, almost everyone was underlight compared to the mobs and bosses. So theoretically, if during Last Wish players were the right light level, the raid would've been completed much, much faster. This makes Salvation's Edge even crasier of a raid
With the Tom Brady at the Super Bowl example, no he wouldn't broadcast his huddle, or show the play book, but they still show the game itself. There's a difference in cutting voices and bluring buffs and just completely blacking out your screen or showing just your face. Why even bother streaming at that point? Well, I know, money is why. Bungie themselves hyped up the day 1 as a community viewing experience, then most teams involved completely blacked out their entire screen. And in the end, it didn't even really matter as the team that won wasn't streaming and got the info anyway despite all the blacked out screens.
the fact that bungie "gave away" 'final shapes' during verity is incredible when you realize the encounter is all about giving away your final shape for a new one.
This raid was surely something else. When Raid launched, at 7pm CEST for me, my clanmates and i went in istantly. Yet, we spent 4 hours into the first encounter, yet we had no idea what we were doing. Around the 6 hours mark, i had to close for the next morning i had to work, so i closed at 1 am, went to sleep, woke up at 6 am for i had a shift at 7 am. My clanmates closed alongside me, for they still had no idea what to do and had to close as well. Morning went by, yet i was still following the raid race, in fact at 10 am i opened twitch, and saw how people were still racing (thanks for the Raid Zone event btw, Evan!). At 1 pm, i finished my shift, went home, booted up my pc, tuned up on Raid Zone while making lunch.. I was so focused on watching the race (people reached the Witness, but we couldnt see stuff since most of the players started covering their screen), yet it was a moment so tense, i even cutted myself while cooking. The idea that it took longer than Last Wish, that only one team beat it under the 24 hours mark, the Excision activity... This raid is peak Destiny.
im on the side of the muted coms and blacked out streams just really sucked. it was exciting at the beginning watching teams go through the encounters and talk to their teams but once that happened why stream anymore? if you really don't want people stream sniping your progress just dont stream, but its their job too and i get it. it just made it a terrible experience to watch for the last leg of it. but the idea that its a privilege they even streamed in the first place is a crazy message to send to your audience, esp the people that sub to them.
For some it ain't even their real job, it's just extra money since most competitive players in destiny don't have a viewerbase large enough to sustain themselves. Now, if you win and do something with it then you become as large as Gladd or Sweat are now after they won LW, if not, then you become like salt who didn't go that route. No shade at salt but this is just how it ended up working out.
You had me tearing up at the end when you made me realize I’ve been playing this game for 10 years and that massive chapter was coming to a close. Thank you for the incredible video and thank you destiny for all the memories
I know RON gets crapped on for its difficulty and soloability, but I think it's okay to have easier and more difficult raids. Maybe they could scale the rewards based on that. Nice to be able to have a relaxing time with the boys in RON from time to time.
You mentioned wanting selectable difficulties for raids and bringing back contest mode as an option. I’ve talked about this with my clan members for a long time, and some of the ideas we have cooked up include the following. 1) (highly unlikely) alternate contest emblem. You give an emblem that is similar to the contest emblem (like colored variant) or just an entirely new emblem (bungie can cook emblems up, see pantheon) to push some people to go get it, with a triumph being added for each raid. 2) artifice raid armor with bad roll protection, meaning members can select a stat focus for the raid and the game will guarantee 62-ish + armor on any armor drop. 3) raid weapons will be fully enhanced adept weapons with randomly dropped perks. If the perks are bad, it will drop good masterwork mats and if it is good, it’s a keepable weapon. 4) lastly, each encounter clear drops a bunch of materials (once per week or something to prevent farming easier encounters) like 2-4 ascendent alloys or shards plus some other drops along the same line.
I heard Oneirophobia, The First Disciple and Keep of Voices motifs within the Witness theme. I wonder if the song contains parts from each final Raid boss or just these three(2 disciples and one of the firest themes in general)
Your introspective outro, dude... 10 years ago? I was an angsty kid in middle school with a chip on my shoulder. Now? I'm fresh out of a trade school and starting a new job in a entirely new field in less than a week. It's crazy how much has changed.
It’s also cool that in the herald encounter, around his little battlefield are statues of all the disciples in their death animation. Nice little touch
I remember watching a bit of the race when it started, sleeping for work and waking up to see teams on 3rd encounter. Also that shot of our guardians looking at the traveler I so awesome.
Funny how you shared a clip of the Archimonde fight in regards to mechanics v. execution of raids. I was a Mythic raider in late WoD/early Legion, and I remember that fight kickin' my team's arse. I always thought it was weird/lame how when we did a new raid in WoW, the mechanics were already -known-, and we just had to learn when and where to stand while maintaining a near perfect rotation of our class abilities. Going from that playstyle to the Destiny raid scene was total whiplash, to be sure. I think I prefer Destiny raiding for that reason, as it feels much more rewarding to problem solve then to forced to be perfect, even if you only get that dopamine on the first clear, it's long-lasting. Hell, I still get goosebumps reflecting to my team clearing Rhulk at the 22h mark. That said, this raid was a wonderful combination of problem solving and execution, something we've only really seen in Destiny once before (being LW obviously), mad props to the teams that cleared it.
In terms of the day 1 watching experience, I got over the muted coms but I thought that covered screens were a bit much. text chat I get but the fact bungie put the timer at the top for the encounter made it so you saw like 60% of the game with some still images covering the gameplay.
4th encounter can be simplified even further for inside too, you just hand everyone their original shape, then from left to right they hand out their shapes to the other 2 people, so if it was tcs, left side would have 2 triangles after everyone hands the statues their symbols. Then after everyone has their own shapes, you triangle would hand it to middle and right, then middle and right side would hand everyone else their statues shape(to avoid overloading the right side with shapes, there is a 3 shape limit). then you just grab your shapes and exit.
No disrespect meant for Parabellum actually winning the race, since they didn't even publicly stream, I have nothing against them. I simply respect those who stream start to finish, more than those who hid comms and blacked screens. Those who valued their community over their "advantage" are the best. In MY perfect world, all the world's first teams would have to figure the raid out between themselves and wouldn't have to worry about other teams stream sniping info for an advantage, but I know this is too much to expect, so good on those who didn't let it bother them.
I understand blocking comms during the raid races, however a lot of teams outright blocking the entire screens yet still streaming ultimately defeated the point of streaming the race in general. I much would've preferred people who would block their screens out completely to simply not stream at all
I first started raiding back in 2014 with vault of glass, and got antheon , and though I never finished it, I am just so happy to see how far raiding has come from kings fall, to last wish. And now the final raiding of the saga. And the thing I thought of the memory of that vault memory, and how much has changed in ten years
That last line about Evam being 27 in a month is wild. I started got destony the first Christmas it was out in 2014. And when I finished the black garden/campaign the first time i was 11 years old... Im turning 21 next week and i havent fekt this good about destiny in a long time.
13:33 Holy crap dude I absolutely love Colgara boss theme. I was about to fall asleep and my eyes shot open when that theme started playing. My heart...right in the nostalgia
I think my favorite part was the post raid video we see before Excision. The 6 guardians who got the world first are now, quite literally, part of the lore. Of course they couldn't model them in to a pre rendered cutscene but if Bungie could have found a way to do it they would.
I think hiding screens is annoying because the raid race is supposed to be watched and with knowledge of cheating in the past being a thing (kings fall) players should be forced to keep screens shown but be allowed to mute coms. I mean hell for as long as the raid was too there was devs watching and man it wasn’t entertaining seeing just face cams or a s**t post on my screen for them to only turn it back on when the encounter is done
Facts. I also hate when Evan and CB defend them by using the “Football game, clip board covering the mouth” example because it doesn’t make sense. In this case you can’t see anything at least in a football game you can still watch the football game 😂
@@BailyC295 that was a very poor analogy. It was more like them telling everyone to leave and turning off the cameras in the last 10 minutes of a football game.
Honestly the only way to actually watch the raid race was through you on twitch. Everyone being on no comms makes sense from a strategy perspective, but as a viewer, it’s just unwatchable. I watch these streamers for their commentary 90% of the time, and hearing nothing is a slap in the face.
Great video as always Evan. A really fun experience chilling with and CB after only getting to 2nd encounter after hours and hours. My opinion on hiding screens is that I fully understand why it is done but for the viewing of thousands of people its kinda lame. If you have a giant audience watching you and your screen is completely black, I dont know what the point of streaming is at that point.
Jesus christ its called hyping yourself and the team up professional teams in any medium say shit like this all the time. They were just on one encounter for literally ages and they were aware that teams were ahead of them morale was down so one member says something like this to help everyone's mental.
Shout out to Redeem for being the only major team not to cover screens/ mute streams. Everyone else soft af it’s about the viewing experience just as much as the race
I subscribed to Gladd as a thank you for not going dark. I wouldn't have minded muted comms, but blank screens seem to be against the spirit of signing up for a streaming *event*.
No it ain’t. It’s a competitive race first and foremost. They mute n black screen because Some of these teams take that seriously. None of them *have to* stream it. And if they do, it’s at their discretion, not yours. Don’t like it, either play the raid or watch someone else. Everyone’s got their own approach, be conscious of that
So then they shouldn't have streamed, that simple. They're trying to make easy money since their viewerbase is pretty miniscule, instead of making better content. There is a reason that Gladd and Sweat didn't mute or hide screen, cause they have viewers that enjoy watching them and not just the game. @JesusMartinez-xv8if
@@JesusMartinez-xv8if Such a BS excuse. Your entire post falls apart the second it's mentioned that a lot of people PAID TO WATCH THIS. Not only that, the streamers got paid for viewership and time as well, with the expectation to deliver a product. Honestly people should reach out to Twitch and/or do mass refunds/cancelling of subs. Teach these streamers the same lesson Helldivers 2 had to be taught.
We need harder diffuilties for raids so bad. Day one contest mode is some of the most rewarding destiny I have ever played. Side note 10 years ago I had a horrible drug addiction and was so broken. I remember the day D1 came out I got the white playstation bundle as a gift from my mother. I didnt leave my house for an entire month and would only do drugs and play.During such a dark time Destiny was the little bit light in my life. Now 10 years later I am a husband, father of two girls, own a house, sober, and a great job still playing Destiny. Greatful I got to see the end of this saga.

Thank you very much for your stream and video! Our team only got as far as the 2nd Encounter and it was great fun to continue watching you! GG to Parabellum.
The screen hiding and area blurring for day1 raids is so funny when at the end of it all a team that didn’t even stream it won 😂 makes me happy. Screen blurring hiders are a meme 😂
There will never be a gaming moment like this one, the raid was absolutely perfect and excision actually made me tear up, bungle reall had the golden hand this dlc and will go down in history as one of the greatest I just wish I found a better team, I firgured all the mechanics but they just didn’t care
My fireteam had been slugging it out in the first encounter for hours and hours on day 1, none of us were watching streams. When we got the pop up in game that a team had beaten the whole raid it was SO hype - it pushed us to at least clear that one encounter in contest! (We’ve beat it now lmao)
I have an idea for an exotic pulse rifle! “Dynamic Pulse Frame; this firing mode fires a two-round burst at about 900ish RPM; and upon holding down the trigger, the weapon will switch to full auto mode. (600 RPM) Figured I’d throw this out there
Our day 1 was wild. We had a team planned before Into the Light dropped, but once Pantheon hit some didn't want to play anymore. Then they apparently made a new team and never told us. So we also made a new team with the few we had, went in and did the 1. Encounter. We were all pretty tired after 4 hours, so we went to sleep, cleared the 1st Encounter after 1 hour and then got to the second. There we tried, but then gave up because we didn't want to alter too much of iur fun with our builds in order to survive. Meanwhile the other team didn't even made it past the 1st encounter and gave up the same evening. I see this as an absolute win We never looked at guides btw. I am really proud of us as we even had a few that just started in Lightfall For the race where noone was showing any info: I get it. My mates were mad but I do understand why. It's about everything, cooperation between teams could spell your doom
"An absolute blast to watch" when all of the tems blacked out their screens. What a fucking joke. I'm so glad that a non-streamer team got the win, as soon as I heard I tuned in waiting for saltagreppo to cry
u are salty that teams cover their screens yet celebrate that a team that didnt show ANYTHING won? Thats some weird logic if u ask me Imagine NO team would stream, would you prefer that over how it is now? in sports like football the headcoaches talk over headsets to their coaching staff and then communicate it to the players, even going so far to cover their mouths so no one can lipread, are u crying over this as well? Its just competitive behaviour and thats fine
@@meikl777 Streaming but still muting/hiding the screen is trying to have your cake and eat it too. Either be competitive or try to get attention, trying to do both at the same time just makes you a loser.

My opinion on hiding sceens comms etc. It’s super annoying and sucks some of the fun from watching. BUT As someone who does a lot of raiding and has participated in Day 1’s I completely understand. This is a race, no prize for second place. All it takes is one person on another team to notice you do something different from them, put one part of a mechanic together and if they can execute it, well say bye to your lead or even 1st place.

@@burstpanther6352 Evidence of your clear. You don’t have to hide the entire time, just when it’s neck and neck. Ex: 4th and 5th encounter were justified being hidden

I understand why they mute the comms, because thats the place everyone strategizes, but i dont think that its neccesary to block the entire screen, because you would need to watch all team member screens at the same time to understand the encounter and even then there will be a lot of chaos.
I think its because most of these teams have a "coach" that watches the other streams and informs them on what the other teams are trying and what fails or succeeds. So they black out the stream to prevent this. That's my guess. I'm not saying I like it kinda pointless to stream a raid when 90% of the time you aren't seeing the raid itself.
no you wouldnt have to watch the entire team, less than a minute after ATP unblocked their screen on witness fight, another team was already watching and calling out every single thing they did, everything they tried, everything they got wrong and everything they got right. literally less than 60 seconds before another top teams streamer was stream sniping live and calling out strats. stream sniping is bannable on twitch btw lol. just 1 person watching 1 other persons stream gained them a massive advantage as it gave them hours worth of ATPs legitimately learned info 1 5 minute attempt

The point about hiding comms, buffs and screens. I think sweatcicle's point about redeem never hiding comms in their world firsts is valid.
They just shared important info in discord.
I dont think streamers should be ruining the fan experience when these are the biggest numbers they will get all year.
My favorite part of the raid race was watching a black screen, a blurred screen, and a face cam for the last 6 hours of the race. Incredibly riveting
Respect to Redeem for not muting their comms, actually really enjoyed watching Sweat during the race.
Sweat, Gladd & Leopard were 3 of them I watched that didn't mute comms. I think Kackis might have muted comms, but kept video going. Because Gladd didn't go black-screen, I subscribed to his channel.
I didn't mind muted comms, because a lot of info is given verbally + text chat. I DO have a problem w/ signing up for a streaming event that makes you money for streaming... and you give viewers Blackout. They should have either not signed up for TR (like Parabellum did not), or ended their streams.
Yeah I agree, there were streamers hitting back at people online who complained about black screening, people have a choice whether to watch but streamers should not be allowed to sign up to twitch rivals and gain the money from viewership emblems unless they are showing the full race.

I love love love the design of Verity. The visuals of the light and dark realms, the way you can see the dark realm creeping in at the edge of your screen at all times, and the chilling sight of your calcified fireteam and the whole concept of needing to save yourselves from your certain death.
I was a diehard fan of 24, that was the most gorgeous anxiety inducing transition I've seen in years! Well done and thank you for this video!
Verity is already one of my favorite encounters. Everything about it is so cool and it’s so satisfying to complete.
Same, once I learned it I loved it
About the muting comms and hiding screens: It makes sense why they do it and I support the fact that they're so competitive they want to get every little advantage they can get, however, if they're going to straight up full mute and completely hide the screen for hours, they might as well just not stream at all, heck, I think that might be more beneficial to them just because their PC doesn't have to handle the stream on top of the game and discord
You got free emblems and tracking and you didn't have to watch
I get it, and partially agree, but part of me wants to believe that because Parabellum didn't have a public stream going; that allowed them to focus more on the Raid itself than stressing about giving away nuggets of information to competitors. That's not to discredit the skill of any of the teams, but I think when you don't have to worry about other teams ever knowing you're in the race, that you can focus more on what's important.
Find it very weird for the D2 community to react like this when this has been the common norm for any other mmos in raid races, the only reason WoW streams their world race is because the top teams get heavily sponsored and paid to do so.
no rheres nothing to get stop trynna back up these loosers, bungie should bann muting comms and covering screens mext time, this is a time bungie wants us to enjoy and unite as a community, but some dweebs had to “have an advantage” this a competition to see whos best, get that 😸 shii outta here

The real edging was waiting for evan to release this video
Don't forget that during the Day 1 of the Last Wish, almost everyone was underlight compared to the mobs and bosses. So theoretically, if during Last Wish players were the right light level, the raid would've been completed much, much faster. This makes Salvation's Edge even crasier of a raid

With the Tom Brady at the Super Bowl example, no he wouldn't broadcast his huddle, or show the play book, but they still show the game itself. There's a difference in cutting voices and bluring buffs and just completely blacking out your screen or showing just your face. Why even bother streaming at that point? Well, I know, money is why. Bungie themselves hyped up the day 1 as a community viewing experience, then most teams involved completely blacked out their entire screen. And in the end, it didn't even really matter as the team that won wasn't streaming and got the info anyway despite all the blacked out screens.
the fact that bungie "gave away" 'final shapes' during verity is incredible when you realize the encounter is all about giving away your final shape for a new one.
This raid was surely something else.
When Raid launched, at 7pm CEST for me, my clanmates and i went in istantly. Yet, we spent 4 hours into the first encounter, yet we had no idea what we were doing. Around the 6 hours mark, i had to close for the next morning i had to work, so i closed at 1 am, went to sleep, woke up at 6 am for i had a shift at 7 am.
My clanmates closed alongside me, for they still had no idea what to do and had to close as well.
Morning went by, yet i was still following the raid race, in fact at 10 am i opened twitch, and saw how people were still racing (thanks for the Raid Zone event btw, Evan!). At 1 pm, i finished my shift, went home, booted up my pc, tuned up on Raid Zone while making lunch.. I was so focused on watching the race (people reached the Witness, but we couldnt see stuff since most of the players started covering their screen), yet it was a moment so tense, i even cutted myself while cooking.
The idea that it took longer than Last Wish, that only one team beat it under the 24 hours mark, the Excision activity... This raid is peak Destiny.
im on the side of the muted coms and blacked out streams just really sucked. it was exciting at the beginning watching teams go through the encounters and talk to their teams but once that happened why stream anymore? if you really don't want people stream sniping your progress just dont stream, but its their job too and i get it. it just made it a terrible experience to watch for the last leg of it. but the idea that its a privilege they even streamed in the first place is a crazy message to send to your audience, esp the people that sub to them.
For some it ain't even their real job, it's just extra money since most competitive players in destiny don't have a viewerbase large enough to sustain themselves. Now, if you win and do something with it then you become as large as Gladd or Sweat are now after they won LW, if not, then you become like salt who didn't go that route. No shade at salt but this is just how it ended up working out.
You had me tearing up at the end when you made me realize I’ve been playing this game for 10 years and that massive chapter was coming to a close. Thank you for the incredible video and thank you destiny for all the memories
I know RON gets crapped on for its difficulty and soloability, but I think it's okay to have easier and more difficult raids. Maybe they could scale the rewards based on that. Nice to be able to have a relaxing time with the boys in RON from time to time.
THE RAID THAT EDGED DESTINY!!!
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO
I was there live and slept and woke up as it was cleared
You mentioned wanting selectable difficulties for raids and bringing back contest mode as an option. I’ve talked about this with my clan members for a long time, and some of the ideas we have cooked up include the following. 1) (highly unlikely) alternate contest emblem. You give an emblem that is similar to the contest emblem (like colored variant) or just an entirely new emblem (bungie can cook emblems up, see pantheon) to push some people to go get it, with a triumph being added for each raid. 2) artifice raid armor with bad roll protection, meaning members can select a stat focus for the raid and the game will guarantee 62-ish + armor on any armor drop. 3) raid weapons will be fully enhanced adept weapons with randomly dropped perks. If the perks are bad, it will drop good masterwork mats and if it is good, it’s a keepable weapon. 4) lastly, each encounter clear drops a bunch of materials (once per week or something to prevent farming easier encounters) like 2-4 ascendent alloys or shards plus some other drops along the same line.
New intro welcome to the raid that EDGED the whole destiny 2 community. The longest it’s ever had
I heard Oneirophobia, The First Disciple and Keep of Voices motifs within the Witness theme. I wonder if the song contains parts from each final Raid boss or just these three(2 disciples and one of the firest themes in general)
Your introspective outro, dude... 10 years ago? I was an angsty kid in middle school with a chip on my shoulder. Now? I'm fresh out of a trade school and starting a new job in a entirely new field in less than a week. It's crazy how much has changed.
It’s also cool that in the herald encounter, around his little battlefield are statues of all the disciples in their death animation. Nice little touch
"And now you have to do this, two, more, times"
That explains the one tweet of they need a raise and to be fired
I remember watching a bit of the race when it started, sleeping for work and waking up to see teams on 3rd encounter. Also that shot of our guardians looking at the traveler I so awesome.

Funny how you shared a clip of the Archimonde fight in regards to mechanics v. execution of raids. I was a Mythic raider in late WoD/early Legion, and I remember that fight kickin' my team's arse.
I always thought it was weird/lame how when we did a new raid in WoW, the mechanics were already -known-, and we just had to learn when and where to stand while maintaining a near perfect rotation of our class abilities. Going from that playstyle to the Destiny raid scene was total whiplash, to be sure. I think I prefer Destiny raiding for that reason, as it feels much more rewarding to problem solve then to forced to be perfect, even if you only get that dopamine on the first clear, it's long-lasting. Hell, I still get goosebumps reflecting to my team clearing Rhulk at the 22h mark.
That said, this raid was a wonderful combination of problem solving and execution, something we've only really seen in Destiny once before (being LW obviously), mad props to the teams that cleared it.
what if instead of salvation’s edge, it was called salvation’s freak and we had to freak it on the witness
In terms of the day 1 watching experience, I got over the muted coms but I thought that covered screens were a bit much. text chat I get but the fact bungie put the timer at the top for the encounter made it so you saw like 60% of the game with some still images covering the gameplay.
4th encounter can be simplified even further for inside too, you just hand everyone their original shape, then from left to right they hand out their shapes to the other 2 people, so if it was tcs, left side would have 2 triangles after everyone hands the statues their symbols. Then after everyone has their own shapes, you triangle would hand it to middle and right, then middle and right side would hand everyone else their statues shape(to avoid overloading the right side with shapes, there is a 3 shape limit). then you just grab your shapes and exit.
Yup thats how my teams do it.
I remember clearly what I was doing when they finished edging. crucible, respawned, my team was behind by about 20 points and I was using lemon
The use of the tears of the kingdom Colgera theme during the first encounter was soo nice
I applaud teams that streamed their entire run without blocking everything or muting audio.
No disrespect meant for Parabellum actually winning the race, since they didn't even publicly stream, I have nothing against them. I simply respect those who stream start to finish, more than those who hid comms and blacked screens.
Those who valued their community over their "advantage" are the best.
In MY perfect world, all the world's first teams would have to figure the raid out between themselves and wouldn't have to worry about other teams stream sniping info for an advantage, but I know this is too much to expect, so good on those who didn't let it bother them.
I understand blocking comms during the raid races, however a lot of teams outright blocking the entire screens yet still streaming ultimately defeated the point of streaming the race in general. I much would've preferred people who would block their screens out completely to simply not stream at all
Here’s to the future of Destiny🤝

Congrats dude, well done.

Rip desticles
I first started raiding back in 2014 with vault of glass, and got antheon , and though I never finished it, I am just so happy to see how far raiding has come from kings fall, to last wish. And now the final raiding of the saga. And the thing I thought of the memory of that vault memory, and how much has changed in ten years
I am so hyped to be watching this Video! Good job on raid zone Evan!
That last line about Evam being 27 in a month is wild. I started got destony the first Christmas it was out in 2014. And when I finished the black garden/campaign the first time i was 11 years old... Im turning 21 next week and i havent fekt this good about destiny in a long time.
the only thing i edge to is the sound of the plates locking
Atp showing there screen on day one was the most hype moment for me. Such an enjoyable night watching it all.

I don’t know if anyone else realizes this but the background music is from the calamity mod for terraria
I watched many hours of the stream. Amazing, just amazing. Keep up the great work evan!!
Watching Raid Zone from start to finish on Day One and it being my first raid race made for an absolutely amazing experience. ❤
You just had to be there. What a moment!
13:33 Holy crap dude I absolutely love Colgara boss theme. I was about to fall asleep and my eyes shot open when that theme started playing. My heart...right in the nostalgia
I think my favorite part was the post raid video we see before Excision. The 6 guardians who got the world first are now, quite literally, part of the lore. Of course they couldn't model them in to a pre rendered cutscene but if Bungie could have found a way to do it they would.
no they wouldn't lol
Muting comms wasn't the issue, it was people just streaming a black screen/blurring their gameplay so you can't see anything.
I think hiding screens is annoying because the raid race is supposed to be watched and with knowledge of cheating in the past being a thing (kings fall) players should be forced to keep screens shown but be allowed to mute coms. I mean hell for as long as the raid was too there was devs watching and man it wasn’t entertaining seeing just face cams or a s**t post on my screen for them to only turn it back on when the encounter is done
Facts. I also hate when Evan and CB defend them by using the “Football game, clip board covering the mouth” example because it doesn’t make sense. In this case you can’t see anything at least in a football game you can still watch the football game 😂
@@BailyC295 that was a very poor analogy. It was more like them telling everyone to leave and turning off the cameras in the last 10 minutes of a football game.
Or they could be like parabellum and not stream so literally no one can watch the raid race at all.
YO RESPECT FOR USING STAINED BRUTAL CALAMITY FOR MUSIC
Honestly the only way to actually watch the raid race was through you on twitch. Everyone being on no comms makes sense from a strategy perspective, but as a viewer, it’s just unwatchable. I watch these streamers for their commentary 90% of the time, and hearing nothing is a slap in the face.
I have never been more proud of my fireteam when we cleared this raid ~40 hours into contest. What an awesome experience
At least you can see the huddle in football lol
Great video as always Evan. A really fun experience chilling with and CB after only getting to 2nd encounter after hours and hours. My opinion on hiding screens is that I fully understand why it is done but for the viewing of thousands of people its kinda lame. If you have a giant audience watching you and your screen is completely black, I dont know what the point of streaming is at that point.
hearing the arrogance of that dude from Elysium "It's almost like we're just better at the game" I am so happy they didn't win.
👍🏻
Im gald that HE didnt win, but i felt kinda bad for his team, either way, act like an ass and get what you deserve
You and everyone else, I think. Myself included.
Really funny that the comment came after being stuck on an encounter for 11 hours because they couldn't figure out a puzzle.
Jesus christ its called hyping yourself and the team up professional teams in any medium say shit like this all the time. They were just on one encounter for literally ages and they were aware that teams were ahead of them morale was down so one member says something like this to help everyone's mental.
It was crazy that was watching it all the way up to when I fell asleep then when I woke up IT WAS STILL GOING
Shout out to Redeem for being the only major team not to cover screens/ mute streams. Everyone else soft af it’s about the viewing experience just as much as the race
I subscribed to Gladd as a thank you for not going dark. I wouldn't have minded muted comms, but blank screens seem to be against the spirit of signing up for a streaming *event*.
No it ain’t. It’s a competitive race first and foremost. They mute n black screen because Some of these teams take that seriously. None of them *have to* stream it. And if they do, it’s at their discretion, not yours. Don’t like it, either play the raid or watch someone else. Everyone’s got their own approach, be conscious of that
So then they shouldn't have streamed, that simple. They're trying to make easy money since their viewerbase is pretty miniscule, instead of making better content. There is a reason that Gladd and Sweat didn't mute or hide screen, cause they have viewers that enjoy watching them and not just the game. @JesusMartinez-xv8if
@@JesusMartinez-xv8if Such a BS excuse. Your entire post falls apart the second it's mentioned that a lot of people PAID TO WATCH THIS. Not only that, the streamers got paid for viewership and time as well, with the expectation to deliver a product.
Honestly people should reach out to Twitch and/or do mass refunds/cancelling of subs. Teach these streamers the same lesson Helldivers 2 had to be taught.
44:47 I remember this moment during the live stream the most. ATP clearing Verity was sooo hype
We need harder diffuilties for raids so bad. Day one contest mode is some of the most rewarding destiny I have ever played. Side note
10 years ago I had a horrible drug addiction and was so broken. I remember the day D1 came out I got the white playstation bundle as a gift from my mother. I didnt leave my house for an entire month and would only do drugs and play.During such a dark time Destiny was the little bit light in my life. Now 10 years later I am a husband, father of two girls, own a house, sober, and a great job still playing Destiny. Greatful I got to see the end of this saga.

Felt so sweet seeing a team not streaming win world's first after having everyone go completely incognito
Oh no, they just went incognito even harder by ending their stream entirely after the 4th encounter. Lol
My fireteam had been slugging it out in the first encounter for hours and hours on day 1, none of us were watching streams. When we got the pop up in game that a team had beaten the whole raid it was SO hype - it pushed us to at least clear that one encounter in contest!
(We’ve beat it now lmao)
Should have read "The Raid That Nearly Ended The Lives Of Top 30 players"

Figured I’d throw this out there
I loved it when the Witness said
“It’s salvation’s edging time!”
And salvation’s edged all over the placed.
Our day 1 was wild. We had a team planned before Into the Light dropped, but once Pantheon hit some didn't want to play anymore. Then they apparently made a new team and never told us. So we also made a new team with the few we had, went in and did the 1. Encounter. We were all pretty tired after 4 hours, so we went to sleep, cleared the 1st Encounter after 1 hour and then got to the second. There we tried, but then gave up because we didn't want to alter too much of iur fun with our builds in order to survive. Meanwhile the other team didn't even made it past the 1st encounter and gave up the same evening. I see this as an absolute win
We never looked at guides btw. I am really proud of us as we even had a few that just started in Lightfall
For the race where noone was showing any info: I get it. My mates were mad but I do understand why. It's about everything, cooperation between teams could spell your doom
"An absolute blast to watch" when all of the tems blacked out their screens. What a fucking joke. I'm so glad that a non-streamer team got the win, as soon as I heard I tuned in waiting for saltagreppo to cry

It’s super annoying and sucks some of the fun from watching. BUT
As someone who does a lot of raiding and has participated in Day 1’s I completely understand. This is a race, no prize for second place. All it takes is one person on another team to notice you do something different from them, put one part of a mechanic together and if they can execute it, well say bye to your lead or even 1st place.
