Rank the raids best to worst

[Emil]

I'll start
best:LW (longest, most creative and the most fun raid)
GoS (tether mechanics are great)
CoS (I like the mechanics)
Leviathan (underbelly and challenges are fun)
SotP (ranked second as soon as I get my damn anarchy)
EoW (normal is not considered a raid, but prestige is ok)
worst: SoS (not a bad raid, just very annoying to do as prestige)

[Mez Koo]

Scourge of the Past
Garden of Salvation
Crown of Sorrow
Last Wish

Why do you hate EoW and SoS prestige so much?

I don't hate them, they're just my least favourite raids in D2. The loadout restrictions aren't great though IMO.

Leviathan prestige is fantastic. It makes each encounter a little bit more challenging by introducing a new mechanic to each one. Once you've got a handle on Leviathan, you can jump into the prestige version for more of a challenge. EoW and SoS add restrictions rather than complexity, which is less interesting and more oppressive IMO.

Idk about that, since dogs just adds 2 more dogs which doesn't really make the encounter much harder, but yea, otherwise that is true. Loadout restrictions don't really matter since the best build is still 5x nighthawk+ 1 well for the best DPS phases

Idk about crota, I don't consider it a raid, it was more like a strike just like EoW, also, why WotM so low? It had the coolest weapon quest ever! (Outbreak prime)

Honestly that sounds amazing, I'd love to tag along.

Vault of Glass, Kingsfall,, Last Wish, Garden of Salvation, Crotas End.

[Lusus Symphonia]

End of Crota doesnt count as a raid, it could be two manned, look at my PSN profile for evidence, I managed to 3 man that raid easily as Crota only needed two gjallarhorn rockets, 3x normal melee and 1 heavy. (IIRC) with a invisible hunter.

The only raid so far that has given me difficulty is those that require others to perfectly do their job like the gauntlet in leviathan and cooking the cannons in eater of worlds.

It's worth mentioning that I've had difficulty grouping up friends to raid recently which means I haven't ran raids past year 2.

The 2 extra dogs make it considerably more difficult to move around and grab spores. You also have to be more organised when it comes to DPS as there are more dogs than players. I've played with a few groups who have really struggled with dogs in prestige.
