I wanted to hear some other people opinions. I can never do more than 3-4 SHs at a time since the jumping between platforms is a lot of tedious work. I would propose the platforms would be better structured. Symmetry and maybe a boss move pattern depending on platform setup.
I think it's a neat aspect to the game personally. As ranged dps, I can generally stand on the ground and find line of sight to attack, but that takes more effort and time than just jumping on the platforms to begin with. Everything you do up until strongholds mainly involves keeping your feet firmly planted on the ground, with the exception of a few leap pads, so it's a nice change of pace.
