Yep... The WALL
Yes. That one you thought about. Don't know if it is me or others. I'll try to upgrade my weapons to 53 and modules too. I don't have friends to coordinate stuff. Either I play on matchmake or solo. If I can't beat Devourer I'll go back to Destiny 2.
IMO, having to have 4 players full optimized on meta build to do a campain boss is stupid design.
1,7k hour in Destiny and never was frustrated. 44h in TFD and already thinking twice on keep playing. Welp, it is what it is

I tried Devourer with team 3 time, failed. Tried it solo and did it first time.

You don't need a full optimized team. I tried it 4 times and got through it with some randoms. Sometimes you may have a worse team than others. When I saw a team that seemed like they had a half decent shot I made sure not to be what held us back.

Some have had more success solo.

Either way, yeah, can be a wall. But it may be a short lived one.

Yep, I agree. doing some of those bosses are a pain in the ass. Limiting ammo drops and the timer kills the experience. Its like this Dev learned nothing from Bungies mistakes over the years. Bungie realizing that White normal ammo was a big issue so they removed the need to pick up that ammo type. This dev, they are completely clueless.

I'm so sick and tied of running around looking for Standard Ammo to drop in a boss fight. It just kills the experience and leaves a very bad taste in your mouth.

same here. It's much easier to kill the healing things alone than with 3 other people that have no idea that they need to kill it lol

I will never understand this, I played all colossi with random groups and I never had any issue with any of them, I mean sure some took like two tries, but I have never struggled with a "wall", my friends are quite behind me with progress, but so far theyt haven't had any issues with any of the interception battles either, are you sure it's not you who is underperforming? You know you can check what resists do you need and what damage type is best against each colossi, right?
what wall? the only one that you can't solo is hanged man

there's no wall, just use the game mechanics, the game tells you the recommended amount of poison resist to have and the damages type to use/elemental weakness.
Just equip some common mod and upgrade them a little (no much)

in the Beta it was a wall because we were stuck with lvl 35 weapon max (struggling to have more than 25k dps) but now, you wan have a 55-60k dps weapon without mods at this level !

Troubleshoot:
- Are you hitting Colossi weakpoints? Remember you can check them using TAB(or whatever button is assigned to your Ecive button)
- Are you attempting to tear off weakpoints? When a weakpoint is colored gold on the Ecive, you can grapple and attempt to tear it off. Doing so also helps in giving your team DPS while it's downed in your tearing attempt
- Have you tried upping/adding mods to your weps? << THIS IS IMPORTANT
- Have you checked out your own Descendant modules? << THIS IS ALSO IMPORTANT
- Have you upped your reactors/components? Make sure your reactor is the same element as your descendant, and optionally, you'd also fulfill that other sync requirement described on the reactor. << THIS IS ALSO IMPORTANT
- Have you worked on your reactors and components to synchronize with your descendant and playstyle for the situation? << THIS IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE THINGS ABOVE.
- Are you currently comfortable with your weapons? Maybe dealing damage from afar is a better option.
- How about tried another descendant, maybe improving your starter?
- Have you upped your mastery? Those gives stats too.
>>TIP: BUNNY IS NOT THE SOLUTION TO EVERYTHING<<

Yea colossi are quite a pain in the butt to deal with, but you can definitely do it after a few tries and with luck on parties.

Devourer is totally doable with randoms. Just don't waste time with a team made up with Bunnies. Play as Ajax and get into a team with randoms that are made up by just about anyone else other than Bunny. Also, make sure to bring something like a shotgun with electric damage to take out the healing orbs.

Skill issue.

For one you can do all bosses solo, you don't need to have meta build just correct mods,
ie. don't go in fighting Devour with toxic dmg and full fire resistance, tho maybe if you lucky you'll beat it with that while bashing your head against wall.

For me devour was pretty easy no invincibility phase... but than again I read and most people don't read ♥♥♥♥ going in with barely modded gear just swiping off all the tutorials trying to teach them things than they complain and cry how tedious it is or just see people begging for carry through bosses rather then learn what they actually need to do.

So far looks like Pyro is nice filter.

just get a tamer machine gun, use weapon transmission to your max lvl if really needed, make sure hp,def and ele resist you have on your frame, u dont need reactors or forma on anything just mod properly

Elemental resists are not really a suggestion. They might as well be mandatory, at least getting to 80% of them.

When soloing Devourer with 1800 tox resist I was able to facetank a great deal of his damage even as Bunny. Dodging means downtime, downtime means DPS lost and the prick heals, so that's no good.

Not all weapons are created equal. Some weapon variants have huge DPS lead on other weapons in the same category for some reason. So get yourself one of those and level it up when needed.

Damage drop off at range is massive in this game. You don't really feel it when fighting collosi since their HP bars are massive. But keep it in mind, due to just the sheer size of those bosses you will likely lose a good chunk of your damage.

Also Devourer's scaling is scuffed. He's much easier solo.
