Speedrunner Ranks Every Raid Encounter in Destiny 2

[@ultimate3885]

3rd enc Vow is my fave encounter in the game. Fast paced, high action, controlled chaos. Super fun

[@corvo2913]

you clearly didn't spend 2 hours on it with noobs

[@biltongandboba]

​@@corvo2913 The clue is in your comment... noobs...

[@CiteWhyclosa]

Also one of the most fun lowmans. Trio vow i think made it my favorite d2 raid

[@Bakedbeans87]

Same fr fr

[@sQuaTsiFieD]

Agreed, wish there was more of these but for some reason people think more bosses makes a better raid. Would much rather see encounters like this with mini bosses along the way. This was such a great encounter on contest mode, but a great example of one that is ruined by champions on master mode..

[@D2Beagle]

Babe wake up, new Aegis upload

[@poppa6259]

Thank you mr relic for giving me my official opinion on what should be my favorite raid encounters (: Turbo cold comfort dump dps for everything!

[@MegaBeanHead0]

Seeing you wellskate into a wall to get really high is always so satisfying lmao

[@sydious_s_snake]

Not from a speedrunning standpoint but from a good team composition and good execution standpoint, acquisition and caretaker will be my favourite encounters of all time, they reward good execution so well and flow so well as encounters that I can't think of anything that might beat them

[@ERFMXVCC]

If Crown of Sorrow were still around, I'd be super interested to see where you'd put that opening encounter

[@TheAegisRelic]

Probably mid tier, tedious but optimizable

[@realjevans]

that encounter would not be as slow as it was back then because of how much stronger our ad clear kits are now

[@austingoold8662]

I wish they would bring back crown and scourge, those were so fun

[@paul2725]

great video, I really like this tierlist because it considers in factors that as a non speedrunner you wouldn't even consider :D

[@Eazyrun]

Peepo with the Other Half is so cute to look at, I couldn't even begin to play the video

[@KingLeaps]

He probably goes over it in the strat portions of the video, but I’m very interested in whether the removal of fall and collision deaths play a significant role in changes to a strat.

[@TheAegisRelic]

A little, collision bouncing is a big part of some strats but not game-changing

[@xtreme_d2]

you should rank every single item listed in the API :) but literally you are the goat thx for the video

[@splintercell320]

How would you rate the jumping puzzles in a speed running sense? Last wish - taken realm Garden - after evade and after concentrated mind Deep Stone - space walk VoG - gorgons Vow - after caretaker Kings fall - ships and before daughters RoN - Before first boss Crota - guess there really isn’t any unless counting shrieker hallway

[@TheAegisRelic]

I could do a transition/skip ranking that might be interesting

[@DomiBlueShellz]

I know i'm Late but i think a skip Video in General would be really intersting... Kinda Just going over the Skips in the current wr and then maybe a Ranking Like in this Video... Maybe with : consistency difficulty Tech used and the timesave it Provides​@@TheAegisRelic

thanks a lot for the video and your Ranking!

[@luk4aaaa]

another video from one of the best D2 content creators, lovely.

[@KevinRichMark]

You gave Shuro and Exhibition S tier, once again Aebis you earned my respect 🙏🏽😳

[@sauceinmyface9302]

Why is tcrash so good on Atraks? Every traditionally good super seems to struggle to get good damage but tcrash always does insane amounts despite its lower damage.

[@lazykb]

The supers that have better damage in less than 3 seconds are only blade barrage and Attacks specifically has issues registering damage from lots of little projectiles. Novabomb exists but is just pitiful damage compared to t crash. And Needlestorm has the blade barrage issue

[@TheAegisRelic]

Hitreg issues

[@MrSnail-]

Aegis could you give us some common loadputs to use for each subclass

[@TheAegisRelic]

Yeah something like that is coming soonish

[@MrSnail-]

​@TheAegisRelic thanks bro you a real one

Hey, i know this is gonna sound crazy but i met you in, gambit, and i wanted to say your a god

[@TKBadMoon]

I am 100% here for the speedrun tierlist arc if you do more fun/subjective tierlists.

[@hydraslayer8469]

Not sure if you are still reading comments on this video, but if you are, I was wondering if you had any plans to go over what makes a primary weapon good in the current sandbox? Not a "ranking all primary weapons" video necessarily, that would take an excessive amount of time, but something to help figure out what we should be using when not using double primary. Love your content btw!

[@TheAegisRelic]

Working on it rn

[@andrewmarklowitz2728]

hey recently over the weekend i ran into some guys and ran a few times with em and got a 12:20 dsc time how good is that cause they said it was really good.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Current record is 10:00

[@andrewmarklowitz2728]

@@TheAegisRelic sweet id say a 12:20 is solid then

[@TheAegisRelic]

Yeah 12:20 is a great start

[@Maelsstrom]

i believe that there is some RNG timeloss in 2nd encounter GOS was watching mgeiners recent speedrun explanation and he says if angelics is not on someones 3rd sub its a reset.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Yeah I spoke with that team as well as my team and I believe there is a way to completely mitigate that RNG

[@RoyaltonDrummer922]

I’m shocked that Last Wish doesn’t completely break when you do 2 encounters at once

[@DrakeyG_03]

I always like seeing speedruns, and speedruns in this game are always interesting. However, I always wondered that as Bungie buffs or nerfs certain things, how much does that effect strategies and world records. Is it possible that certain times in certain activities are not possible to achieve anymore because of certain balance changes.

[@TheAegisRelic]

It's quite annoying but recently it's been alright

[@realjevans]

people believed that was the case after the sword skating nerf in season of the worthy, but we were still able to break records from before then. most of the time, the power creep of our character far outscales any changes that effect a speedrun over time.

[@Sebastian.Van.A]

Then there - Aegis. Imma give him 5/5 out of amazing content. So, yeah. Thanks!

[@mabaxb]

Crown of sorrow has the best encounters and the worst encounter. I would do things to have the raid back. Maybe even mow someones lawn.

[@VortexVR1337]

OMG GUYS I MADE IT IN AN AEGIS VIDEOOOOOO

[@GMurph2336]

I’d like to hear your take on the changes coming in s23. Many exotics, abilities and weapons you’ve talked about not being useful because enemies in Destiny aren’t really dangerous. How do you think things will shake out with the nerf to orb generation and will other exotics/abilities move up in usefulness or tiers?

[@TheAegisRelic]

Will talk when new season drops :)

[@NAPainter]

Im glad you knew I would come for you if you ranked it any lower, and put caretaker in A tier. Bottom of A tier is a fine line but I'll allow it.

[@Gloglue]

What are your thoughts on the speed runs for the older raid that were removed from d2?

[@TheAegisRelic]

Wasn't around for those unfortunately :P

[@F3rr1s2goated]

Whats the shotgun or perk on 3:17

[@TheAegisRelic]

[@lizardguy2150]

Which Raid speedrun is the hardest to get down in your opinion? Love the content!

[@TheAegisRelic]

RoN, VotD, SE, LW are all pretty tough

[@ilyskrt]

you should make guides on how to speedrun each raid.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Will do!

[@Shoegaze-]

That’s way too much effort and it would be for nothing lol. The only real way to get into speed running most raids is learning from other speed runners and practicing a LOT. There is no way you’d be able to memorize and apply all the strats in a speedrunning video for a raid it’s too much info and you can only practice effectively with other experienced players.

[@temp_name_change_later]

I just discovered your channel so I'm not really familiar with D2 speedrun strats, but it's interesting to see that you're using Mtop in a lot of these clips even though it's sunset. Is it still that good? I've basically retired mine since sunsetting but are there situations now where it's still worth using?

[@TheAegisRelic]

It's purely for movement (height boosting) or dying fast

[@listed3252]

what is the fastest way to hit powerful cap it takes me so long to

[@alessandrocappuccio5421]

In vog can't you just skip plates? I mean you can skip it through the ground to the left of the encounter

[@TheAegisRelic]

You can but Confluxes doesn't start until entrance is over

[@whoneedbag5264]

man that in game chat is wild 😂

[@TheAegisRelic]

[@musicaltarrasque]

Are there any places in d2 rn where swordblock boosting is used? for skips and stuff

[@TheAegisRelic]

Not really

[@musicaltarrasque]

:( its so much fun tho. Hopefully final shape raids/dungeons can use it

[@limbo8749]

May I ask, wtf was the ability in taniks (the solar warlock)

[@CiteWhyclosa]

If you’re talking about as they started, that was a wellskate. Looks more dramatic because the screen shake from taniks spawning in animation

[@flamexbl6282]

descent should still be -1 for rng but not bc of augment pickup locations (that doesnt matter) but bc of the chance of getting far right core and both left dunks which just an automatic +4 to +5

I very love Rhulk encounter, it requires a good coordination, like to see speedrunners cooperation in dps strat while procing Verity's, sad to see your low rate.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Yeah it's not bad but it's easily the weakest Vow encounter

[@SynerG]

What about the GoS skip where you just skip the entire raid?

[@TheAegisRelic]

That doesn't actually do anything to complete the raid, you do part of that route to pull half the team to boss (3-4 instead of 0-4)
