Queen Wrath missions are hard. I mean we had in our party of 3, me at 23, another at 25, and one at 28. Enemies were 24 and we all died 4-5 times. It almost felt like 4 to 5 shots killed you, and really need to be selective and smart on cover. .
All Queen's Wrath missions come with a set of
Mission Modifiers, much like Skulls from Halo they make the game harder/easier in asymmetrical ways. Likely you are getting boned by the Elemental Mission Modifier.
Every Queen's Wrath comes with an Elemental Mission Modifier which is the fun part about Epic missions. For example if the Solar Burn Mission Modifier is in play, all Solar damage will be doubled. This means that all your enemies that use Solar damage (Goblins, Hobgoblins, etc.) will do twice their regular damage, suddenly a single Goblin is capable of downing an entire team. However, Elemental Mission Modifiers work both ways meaning that when you do match the Elemental critique with a class ability/weapon and you get precise shots(hitting the enemies weak point) you can do up to four times the normal amount of damage. Not counting the absurdity of Sniper Rifle crits or point blank Shotgun shells. I beat the final boss on Destiny alone with an HMG in under 5minutes, I literally blew away 1/6 of the bosses health with each round. I like the Elemental Mission Modifier because while you can easily blow away a boss, a creep can catch you unaware and kill you without warning.
Every time you start a mission or enter a Darkness Zone, right above your HuD a brief list of the Mission Modifiers active in the current mission will appear. Keep an eye on those and plan accordingly is my suggestion.
I have three exotics thanks to Xur how about everybody else?
