[b]“Seasonal Ranks are now available for the Vanguard, Crucible, Trials of the Nine, and Iron Banner”[/b] A new grind— but for What? Just Ornaments? Or did u actually add a whole new loot table of items that are actually WORTH grinding for, and a [b][i]special[/i][/b] and desirable item for maxing vanguard rank— like you did for crucible?? [b]In addition to the above, the baseline difficulty of Heroic strikes is boosted to be closer to Nightfall difficulty[/b] Oh and you increased rewards for this too? Or wait, no you didn’t... so it’s harder Bc... it’s harder... rewards should match difficulty. People whined about grind so now you’re introducing it arbitrarily without making it worth doing in the end. This doesn’t make this game type better, just harder. *insert crying about why X type of player (hardcore/casual) is the reason D2 sucks*. We want grind, but we want layers of reward that include progression and super rare items... there’s no interesting new strike loot here, why would you make this harder? Yeesh. [b]Items earned via Bright Engrams, Bright Dust, or previous Matrix activations will contribute to the knockout list[/b] I get that prismatic activations stay knocked out permanently... BUT Do bright dust and bright engram acquired items stay permanently knocked off the prismatic matrix, or do they just knock them out of the matrix for the week that you earn them? One of those promotes player control, the other promotes silver sales. I may have my answer right there, but I want to hear it from you Bungie. [b]“Players now may receive one Bright Engram per character (account limit of three) from Tess for the seasonal milestone”[/b] - I hope this means a season milestone is in ADDITION to a bright engram for each level up... [b]Fixed an issue in which scoring did not add points for killing the bosses in the Nightfall strikes “A Garden World” and “Savathûn’s Song” [/b] -Perfect timing after last week’s grindfest... lol
