Are...are you serious? bungie please continue to not listen to this raving lunatic. Please do not ever consider going back to a RNG drop for new gear instead of allowing us to grind low-medium difficulty content for new exotics.

  • Those lost sectors reruns ON TOP of RNG are asinine. Worse than the faction rallies lost sectors. Just a snooze fest. It’s so lame and boring. Can’t even get excited when an exotic engram drops anymore cause you know it’s just gonna be the same exotics you got Yr1 Ain’t nobody got time for that

  • rng drops gives you a good reason to play the game.

  • That’s funny cause I thought the community at large has said stop doing so much RNG. IE gun crafting

  • The heavy reliance on RNG for endgame content is one of the biggest reasons why i stopped playing back november 2020. Players fall behind because of mechanics they have no control over. If bungie cuts nearly all the RNG aspects of endgame content for mechanics which are more reliable and consistant then i (and many other players imo) might make a return.

  • Well you’re in luck cause of things like legendary lost sectors, gun craft, umbral engrams system. And probably more i can’t think off off the top of my head. They’ve done a lot to give players targeted farms

  • There are, I'll concede that. Doesn't change the fact that I hate the system. Stopped focusing them around week 7 of a 6 month season!!! I refuse to believe I'm the only one, It's almost always garbage. Destiny has been suffering years from garbage loot. I shard 99% of all my drops.

  • Yes how much of that is still RNG based? You narrow down the options but you can still get trash out of those options. And don't get me started on the powerful/pinnicle engrams 🙄

  • Another person who thinks it has to be all or nothing. I never said to remove or even change the Lost Sector system. I said that I wanted to add option of also having it drop in the open world but it would, obviously, be non-guarantee; whereas, the LS is the guarantee when it does finally reward an exotic. I want players to be able to choose how they grind. Having only one source in the LS system is boring. Not hard. Boring.

  • I think that’s just so incredibly nit picky

  • Wait... Wanting players to have a choice, even just a couple options, in how they grind for gear is "nit picky" but demanding players only have one option that they must play over and over again to the point of utter boredom isn't?

  • You understand there’s no exotic farm right? It’s not player choice it’s RNG. Out of everything you could worry about it’s 6 drops that would take you a hour to collectively get.. I understand what you’re saying but it’s a frankly ridiculous thing to make a post about. Had it been server stability, class balance, pvp content, sand box updates etc. I would’ve said hey each their own but that just seems incredibly petty.

  • Oh wow.. Okay, so, for next time, I'll go down every single grievance that everyone has already talked about about a thousand times that I also have a problem with. Instead of, ya know, sighting one of my personal biggest reasons I don't want to get the expansion which is the tedium and boredom of doing the Lost Sector system. It's not petty, sugar, it's me stating one of my biggest, personal issues with the game which is, more or less, an example of a huge problem with the game which is by not allowing players to grind how they want to grind. That the game firmly narrows your path for any "progression" to just a handful of activities to do over and over and over again. Which. Is. Boring. I don't mind grinding and I don't mind that some LS are a challenge. But if I want to go do other activities while still having a chance at getting one of the main rewards I'm after, I don't have that option. It's just this boring sh*t on loop. I clamor for this game to truly give players options on how to grind. Tougher activities that almost or do guarantee your rewards and easier things that you have a much lower chance on. All possible to give you the rewards you're actively hunting. But when it comes to the endgame stuff, there aren't many options and most are just one which renders previous options moot. God forbid I want players to have options in how they play. It's like a sin around here.

  • Again though that’s not player choice. It’s petty because world exotic drops are a VERY low chance most people would give up and go grind anyway on top of which there are a lot of exotics so you’d need a fraction of a % to get around having to do 4 lost sectors. And it doesn’t stand in the way of progression because they’re not power drops. I’m sorry that’s such a pain point for you but yes it is petty. And the reason bigger issues get more attention is because they are BIGGER issues. If you don’t want to do legendary lost sectors that’s fine there’s a ton of content In witch queen. Just don’t do them.
