Destiny 2's new raid was beaten in less than three hours
Lightfall's Root of Nightmares had one of the shortest world first🔯 races in the game's history

The new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Destiny 2 Lightfall raid, Ro𒁏ot of Nꦦightmares, was cleared for the first time just two and a half hours after it launched.
Bungie's reports of the first completion on Twitter, though it's still validating the results at the time of writing. But don't lie; as many players have pointed out, a fireteam led by from the group Hard In The Paint was seemingly the first to beat the final boss. There certainly didn't appear to be any foul play, so I'd say we have a winner. (Update: Bungie's .)
. Beyond Light's Deep Stone Crypt took about five and a half hours, and Shadowkeep's Garden of Salvation was just over six hours.Nothing else even comes close to the 18-hour race for Forsaken's Last Wish raid, of course. And♔ at two hours and change, the Root of Nightmares is more on the level of Scourge of the Past and the Eater of Worlds raid lair, which took teams around an hour and a half to clear.
Wh✅y was this raid race so much shorter? It's partly a functi🌠on of how encounters are designed. The main hurdles in the infamously long Last Wish race were complex puzzles, for instance, whereas the actual combat was fairly tame. Root of Nightmares doesn't seem to have that kind of roadblock.
Just as importantly, raiders are getting 🌱better at figuring out Bungie's design language, and on top of that, Guardians have gotten exponentially stronger since the last raid. Between the 3.0 subclasses, Strand, and new Exotics, we're stronger than ever despite mod nerfs, so even the toughest bosses will fall more easily. Still, a day-one raid completion is quite the achievement, so well played to all involved.
Earlier this week, Lightfall added an Exotic mission to Destiny 2's oldest area.
