Ghost of Deep Boss Health Reduction?

[Orange Madness]

A friend of mine keeps teasing me about NOT wanting to do the Ghost of Deep because it is annoying with the tasks and health bars of the enemies. Something I want to clarify is that they are trying to twist my arm AGAIN in trying out this stupid dungeon again because "there was a secret nerf to the boss heath" which I do not believe in at all!

Can someone clarify if this is a lie or not? The individual keeps swearing up and down that this is a piece of fact, but I strongly believe they are lying to me to just do the dungeon.

the boss has the biggest health bar in destiny at 12million it was at 15 so it WAS nerfed slightly but its still 2 oryx health bars

Why try to cheese it this is end game activity, it should suppouse to go around 2 to 10 phage's depending on how good your build and power level is. If you are or your friend aren't feel confortable doing it then you shoud take a look at your build maybe make your whole build all over again. Im telling this is a build problem because half the comunity doesnt realy know how to make builds and they are to proud to admit it. Its acualy preaty simple JUST MAKE SOME ORBS.

And compare to other dungeons this one is preaty straith and simple. There are still people who doesnt even know what to do in spire even if they have completed before. There is duality which it was far harder when it was still bugged. And avarice.... God i hate avarice so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ much

Why do you hate averice? Curious.

The mechanics arent that crazy complex. Or is it just the dongeun overall?

If you are doing the dungeon with a full team, it isn't that bad at all, it's only with fewer players that the health bars become a drag, most especially solo.

Yet this is the issue: we tried a full team with damage kept in mind, but yet we could barely scratch the bosses.

We first tried two Warlocks---Arc and Solar---along with a Void Hunter, and once the bosses were vulnerable, Well of Radiance and Chaos Reach were popped, along side with the Void Hunter applying Debuffs and shooting the boss with a high RPM Machine Gun (Solar Warlock was applying same idea). The Boss went invulnerable, we made such little progress on the boss, the bar was barely noticeable on damage; no scratch.

We then tried doing other ideas such as Gjallarhorn spam---with Well of Radiance---, 3x Machine Gun Spam---with Well of Radiance---, even just trying 2 Solar Hunters and 1 Solar Warlock---with Well of Radiance---and Spammed Handcannons with Lucky Pants; nothing. Hell, we even tried stacking the Osteo Striga poison damage with Scorch damage, and HAHAHA nothing happened, but it did do something.

For the first boss ( the one with the pool of water directly below the arena)

You want legend of acrius w the catalyst and go to town.

For the sedond yea its a PITA. Is actually use malifesence w lucky pants as its insane right now. Either that or get two tracking rockets and gally.

I hate because of sparrow and fallen shield part rest is okay but its unreasonably long because of this 2 parts

[Kylito]

Player 1: Arby, fusion, B&S rocket, well.
Player 2: Witherhoard, Fusion, B&S rocket, damage super.
Player 3: Any, Any, Gally, damage super.

1-2 phases easy. Don't have a warlock? Use bubble and linears on Oryx's head instead.

Double special isnt advised anymore due to the recent ammo drop changes when doing that strat.

The only change is that you don't get as much heavy. It's still very much viable, worst case if you run out of ammo, swap to a primary to create bricks and then swap back.

I dont know where you got this keyboard warrior idea about builds being the problem when the only question he had was if his friends was lying about the health nerf or not! Builds has nothing to do with being able to complete a dungeon or not it simply just makes it easier. Even if you had no build and you needed 20 dps phases to do it you would still be able to. The owner of the thread is frustrated with the health bar considering that majority of all other dungeons doesnt even come close to the health which the dungeon boss in Ghost of the Deep has. 12 million health is twice the amount of templar in VoG on normal. And she craps out 12 moths every 10 secs while having you dealing with insane amounts of adds and mechanics. Duality was 10 times easier and so was Avarice. Spire is harder now because they nerf the ability dmg on the boss from 92% more to 0% but is still doable faster than Ghost of the deep.

And last but not least.. Your spelling. Omfg If you wanna go on a rant about builds being the problem and orbs not being generated at least make a spell check before you send it. Every second word is spelled wrong!

3rd Phase Arby is also good. Unless your super is a roaming super that you can use to take down the shield which would make you lose between 5 and 10 seconds of the dps phase. I would Suggest Arby + add clear weapon + Cold Comfort with Tracking. Or Hothead.

I'm pretty sure there actually was a nerf to her health, as when I first cleared that dungeon, our damage totals added up to 12 million HP. When we clear her now, she has 9.5 million.I even took a screenshot when we first noticed her health pool change because I was laughing at my team doing piss-poor damage.

The only difference now is that I use Arbalest to drop her shield with a single hit, instead of us wearing it down normally. Maybe the damage from her shield is added to the damage total if you don't use Arbalest to negate it.
