What Are The Rewards For SKILL?

Why are "good" rewards locked behind Power? Why does it take so long to hit high Power? Where is the reward for being SKILLED? There is no reward for SKILL - players are only rewarded for their TIME, and most of us don't have the hours to spar to level up. I get WORSE rewards even when I play BETTER than my team. Stop basing reward tiers on POWER and start basing them on PERFORMANCE

  • I find it pretty unacceptable that I can get a 20 kill streak in comp and get a B rating

    • it's probably the biggest reason i'm very happy I didn't purchase the DLC or will continue to put my time into destiny. just feels too linear and not rewarding.

    • It's a real bummer, you should be rewarded for quality gameplay, exceptional moves/ performance, even before EoF, doing something fancy got you nothing.

      • You can skilfully stand on a plate in solo ops while you capture it.

        • Skill? this is not the game for you. All you need to get the best stuff is time, how much time you dedicate and how much time you sacrifice to the game now, its no longer about skill for good loot, it is now about a war of time and attrition. If you have the time to play then you will have loot, if not then no loot.

          • Time spent grinding and guardian rank determine your loot quality currently in Edge of Fate. So why in the hell would the difficulty of the content be tied to the quality of rewards? Thats why Raids and going flawless in trials pre-EoF provided some of the best weapons in game. [i]Wait a second... that does not make any sense...[/i]

            Bungie: You popped off and got 40 kills? Grade B. Also Bungie: We see you grinded 100+ hours of caldera but got two kills and died at least 15 times. Grade A and Tier 5

          • You are playing Destiny. Skill isn't known around these parts.

            • Cheating is so rampant they gave up and made it a time commitment.

                You can get Tier 5 armor in 3 minutes in a glorified lost sector Go flawless in Trials?, Complete A Contest Raid ?, Tier 1 for you !! This system rewards engagement over skill, if you see someone with max level gear, you don't think "That guardian beat something difficult", you just think "That guardian has alot of time on thier hands"

                • The reward for being skilled is performing brain surgery or rocket science......making a house....playing video games takes 0 skill. Just flailing thumbs......

                    • The player base complained when loot was locked behind skill so nothing was sacred anymore. The only way to maintain any level of exclusivity is to lock stuff behind long grinds now

                    • Please add tying Guardian Ranks to loot quality as being D as F. Thank you.
