Plus just remember people who had early access explained you don't need tier 5 to actually enjoy the game or to do harder content... They suggested the most items you should get is tier 4. Example when I completed mystic the full campaign I didn't have tier 5 I only had tier 3 and one tier 4 hand cannon.. I just think people just want to overhype the max loot excellent that's what a lot of streamers do they just overhype things that shouldn't really matter to the majority of the community... Like with one person who had early access they explained that tier 5 is purely cosmetic yeah you get more enhanced perks but in terms of weapon damage the damage is very similar to a tier 4 only a 2 percent difference.. Just like the tier 5 Armor All it gives you is one extra slot and a little bit of extra energy it's not that different from a tier 4. Think about it too if you do the mystic weekly mission every week and you use your attunement up to December hypothetically you would actually have all of your armor and weapons up to t4 by the time we have the dungeon next season.. I feel like that is more grind effective because that percentages will make your life a whole lot easier and harder content compared to power because at this point though power is just a grind it's just a number there are people who are below 200 and they completed mystic they were under 70 levels... Think about the current progression right now people level up either they glitch the game or they abused lost sectors which can be very boring. Or just like what some people are saying once they hit 300 they noticed that the climb to 350 is very slow and that you have to constantly add negative modifiers to make the game extremely hard just to get one piece of loot to level yourself up they feel like it's not worth it it's just nothing but stress. I know the popular opinion about this with streamers is that they don't mind the content being harder but they believed that the rewards should just drop 6 drops if you're gonna play on the hardest difficulty it should be worth your time..

That's not entirely true if you do the altered pursuits oops they do give you a tier 5 shotgun and the auto... You get the shotgun when you complete the mystic explorer quest line you get the auto when you complete all of the triumphs associated with the title fated weapon which most people do have everything completed at this point if you've been playing kepler this whole time.. The only thing that people don't have complete yet is the final sidequest which will be released tomorrow according to bungee they disabled the mission last week or so because they said there was an issue... Most importantly each week twice you can do the weekly mission on mystic and you're guaranteed a tier 4 reward regardless of your level you just have to complete the mission.. This is why my Titan he's only 270 and before he was even 250 I already had an armor load out of tier 3 and weapons of tier 3 and tier 4... So clearly the loot is not completely locked behind 550 power you have to be 550 power to get the drops in the portal but not with kepler.. There is an upgrade in kepler where you have to be 350 and it automatically makes all drops in kepler a tier 4 and in some cases tier 5... Most people like streamers don't talk about this kind of stuff with Kepler because they're more focused on power grind and make them videos they ignore the entire expansion entirely that's why most streamers don't even have any kind of tier gear above 3. I know that is the popular theory with the community that people believe that bungie made the progression slower so streamers have a reason to make videos such as guides which a lot of companies do do this to promote stream or content to reduce the content and make games harder so streamers can benefit from it... We seen stuff like this with games like outrighters and the first descents even with assassin's creed. This is why a lot of video game Communities and video game journalists believe the streamers have way too much power when it comes to decisions in a company these video game company listens to too many streamers and it results in the product going down the s****** we saw this with anthem..

My thoughts exactly. I’m a new player worn out from learning all this -blam!-. Once I caught up in the final shape this happens. Now grinding again this is not fun. A lot of money to pay for this -blam!-. I expect way better than this.

I'm at 222 light and funding playing the same thing over and over again almost unbearable - and this is from someone who has over 6k hours in the game.

Suggest you DELETE then..

let's stop playing the game!

They need to fix the grind issue very quickly
