Yeah it was obnoxious for them to design things like the labyrinth and the ridiculous jumping puzzle, and then put the flawless raider achievement. The jumping when you're relying on 6 people cooperating was just stupid, as was when they randomised the porting on Atheon, going against their own design intentions that they documented online, where everyone would learn their roles - yeah, well done there. Plus it didn't glitch as badly before they "fixed" it lol. The hard raids weren't so bad at 33/34 - I basically did nothing in Crota; just stayed alive - the guys had it down pat lol, so I still have no idea of the mechanics tbh.
The hidden bridges are another totally stupid idea; I was totally foiled by them in the mission to set up the patrols, and the stupid ghost doesn't even try to help out "oh I see you're falling to your death a lot, maybe I could help?" Plus the direction arrows are so wrong so much of the time that I was not trusting it anyway lol. Every time I go into VoG on the new story missions I fall off to the left because that is where it directs me. Lucky I don't drive or I might have been one of those people that ends up in the lake with GPS :D.
