Pretty much run hard mode, and get ready for Trials.

I had sorta hit that point a little bit once I started approaching 310 before HM. Only the raid dropped 300+ items. Therefore, what was the point of even doing the rest of the content?
Trickling of content has helped that so far, as does some of the end-content exotic pursuits. I haven't had a chance to do a lot of the side items previously. But I've been stuck in a hotel room in Winnipeg the last two weeks. Gave me a chance to chase up Malice, Sleeper, Fabian and Simulant. So lots for me to do haha. And thank God they upped the nightfall drops, because I still have a lot of sub 310 gear still.
But to your point, it's sorta been like this with all the other DLC so far, where you hit max level, and then you either take a break or just play a lot of PvP hahah. Fortunately the amount of content prior to hitting that wall has been awesome this time around.
And yeah I'll have to disagree on the raid. It's been swell. Definitely on par with VoG. Mind you I only have about 6-8 normal clears. I'm pretty sure I have friends who have done it 3x a week since maybe week two hahah. Also the HM mechanics for King's Fall vs. the HM mechanics of the other raids have been better.
Re: Golgoroth HM. We did the one orb method, and that went relatively smoothly. He was already enraged when we dropped him, but it still worked. We're also slowly managing Oryx HM. We managed to get two bomb cycles in before calling it a night.
