Val Ca'uor theme, but only the good part(Phase 2)

Unlike the boss fight, the music is actually pretty good!

[@deductivefan01]

I did not expect this to blow up, I literally made it for myself to listen to because I didn't like the first half of the theme haha.

[@killeratj.7025]

I wish they did more themes like this it really feels like your fighting a raid boss.

[@jimijenkins2548]

Just like Val Ca'uor didn't expect to blow up lmao.

The fact that this dude, a D2 final boss for a raid, is a lower rank than Valus Ta’aurc, a D1 strike boss, will always be funny to me.

[@Grancop00]

It’s kind of cool. Like the Red Legion is so prestigious that even its low ranking leadership is powerful enough to be a raid boss

[@FiskyDergn]

@@Grancop00 it's more to show the Legion's desperation. Constant strikes from the vanguard have whittled away their command structure so greatly that they have to be led by a Val. Thankfully Ca'uor is actually a pretty smart strategist, but was unfortunately no match for the guardians.

[@KomodoToast]

It doesn’t matter what it is, bungie will almost always make some of the best music for whatever they are making it for

[@MajicMarco]

I genuinely believe this encounter should be used as an example of a good boss encounter. A great test of cooperation

[@spookwavevevo]

I think it's the single best encounter Destiny has had. I absolutely love having an encounter where all 6 people have to be on their toes the entire time and everyone has a role. You can't just throw 2 people on ad clear. I'll admit the bugs can ruin it, but when it works properly, which is more often than not, it's SUCH a good encounter.

[@CeceGames]

My sibling walked in on me singing along with this and I was kind of embarrassed

[@BlackLionRampant]

It's too bad that we're usually busy screaming callouts and for the ball passes to actually hear the boss theme in this encounter lmao. I hated Spire so much because it had so many failure points. Fail to pass the ball properly? Wipe. Fail to blow up the ships on time? Wipe. Fail to hit the ball on Calus's Spirit Bomb? Wipe. Fail to DPS enough? Wipe. DPS enough and kill Val Ca'Uor but bugs out for SOME reason? He dies, but you wipe anyway. -_-

[@deductivefan01]

My 1 experience with the raid was filled with so much screaming random shit I was honestly lost 90% of the time. Was funny as though.

[@chillidari-9392]

That's what makes a raid good. Destiny raids are nearly impossible to wipe in, Val Cau'uor and Riven legit are such incredible fights and a great change of pace from the usual certified destiny snoozefest

[@Jordi.thefirst]

I love this theme I even made my own headcanon raid like right before Curse of Osiris DLC a Red Legion General has devised a plan to blow up Mars and having the astroids from said destroyed planet to destroy Earth. Like you fight him and his army in the core of mars this is basically like a all or nothing gambit like how they tried using the Almighty

[@deductivefan01]

Bungie couldve done some much with this raid, its a shame they only started actually making a story from Beyond Light.

Xol could have been a raid boss where using the valkyrie was an essential mechanic to stun him and reach dps.

[@AxisChurchDevotee]

Leviathan Play a game show for the entertainment of the former employer Calus. No real stakes here and is akin to a beach episode. Eater of Worlds Take janitor duty for Calus to deal with his Axis Mind problem before it takes over the leviathan. Mid level stakes since the Vex taking the ship would probably be bad. Spire of Stars Stop the red legions new leader from taking control of the leviathan. High stakes since the red legion winning would be VERY BAD for humanity. Crown of Sorrow Once again take up janitor duty to help deal with Calus's basement problem. Low stakes for us since it's not our ship but bad for Calus.

[@AstrumKitten091]

I'd say CoS could be bad for us too. If gahlran defeated Calus, then we would likely be next.

[@onememetorulethemall4301]

Tbf Gahlran would probably be very bad as well considering what happened the last time Cabal and Hive ended up joining as one

Hearing this again really shines how bungie's approach to music has changed completely. There are so many choices in this theme that probably would be very different if it were made (or remade) now

[@vorpalweapon4814]

It was kind of a weird track even for the time. Calus, Aksis, and Oryx are all relatively modern when it comes to how the boss tracks were composed for their respective fight. Argos, Ca'uor, Crota, and Atheon are kind of the odd ones out.
