Heroic Menagerie will be the only thing people will run after they nerf the chest. And that is due to the swords dropping from the boss.
Sadly I don’t see why they are “fixing it” I’ve opened the chest about 130 times and I’ve gotten about two god rolls. It’s not like it’s overly generous. Also consider the amount of gear in the loot table that is worth Farming for. You have quite a few really good weapons, Austringer, Beloved, Erentil, etc. You also have the Dreaming City armor that gives Enhanced Perks.
Also consider that Armor 2.0 will probably make all current armor obsolete for PVE at least, so it’s not like farming quickly and efficiently now is going to impact playtime in the future considering we will be building our stats in Shadowkeep.
I say keep the chest as is!

I've brought that up but people don't get it. The armour will be pointless in sept

I didn’t recall seeing that. I figured that would be the case anyway

It was said by Devs on the guardian con stream, someone asked if current armour would be useless in sept n guys like 'no it'll totally be useable, were not changing old armour, armour 2.0 from Yr1 n yr2 will be rolled out slowly in yr3'. This is how tone deaf they are. It won't totally be usable, it'll be useless because new armour will have more stats n more mod slots, duh. And I'd guess the 2.0 armour will used as content for season pass stuff, so like next Christmas 'boom here guys new armour set, reverie dawn 2.0' lol

“Usable” in the sense you can equip it, not useful because you are going to lose a lot of stats and perks.

I suppose it partially depends on how much super mods/grenade mods/ and melee mods will still effect cool downs with also having intellect/strength/discipline. As well as the artifacts. Or if you can even have those mods on old armor come September.

You can't, they already confirmed Yr1 n yr2 armour won't update (the stuff you have already), 2.0 versions of Yr1 + yr2 armour will be rolled out slowly over time and you'll have to reacquire it :(
