BUNGiE Staff, (Pete) I have a simple request. I am bringing this to everyone's attention because it has been a topic of discussion in the past, and it seems as if actual communication is a thing now. I am going to make an ass of myself, and assume that the community overwhelmingly agrees with me. My request is as follows; [u][b] Address The Loot System[/b][/u] Many of us are frustrated that progression, as far as light level is concerned, has halted. Compared to being level 29 and reaching the previous max light of 30, being forever 319 is much more frustrating. A year ago there was a single method of achieving max level, and it was pretty much a guarantee that level 30 was achieved when a certain piece of gear dropped. A year ago there was a single layer of RNG with the leveling system. Now you give us the idea that we are capable of achieving that maximum light level via different routes, i.e. sparrow racing, trials, iron banner and what not. The truth of the matter is these multiple routes of achieving max light level have effectively implemented multiple layers of RNG onto what already existed. This [u]Double RNG System[/u] in which we are rolling for gear and then rolling for the specific light level in addition needs to be addressed. This specific system is preventing the majority of us from hitting max light. I do the hard raid on a weekly basis. The amount of moldering shards and items of 100% non-useful gear that I received, gear that is lower light than what I currently am, is astonishing. It should not be like this. It is a complete waste of time playing the same old content, over and over, and NEVER getting that ONE piece of gear that we need. The challenge modes were a good attempt at fixing this. However, it seems as if those implemented yet another layer of RNG. I've done the Orxy challenge each time it has been on rotation. I only receive weapons from beating it. The game refuses to give me a helmet. Same with Warpriest and Golgoroth. I only get the weapons from the challenge modes. I am rocking a pretty solid arsenal of 320 weapons, but I sure as hell don't have a 320 ghost despite all of my raid completions, iron banner matches, nightfalls (do those even drop 320 gear [b]LOL[/b]), and 5 trips to the lighthouse in year 2. I don't understand why the loot table can't give us just a little bit of love for being so dedicated and playing the game so much. This shouldn't happen like this. It is discouraging, and makes me feel as if BUNGiE really does not care about the time I spend playing this game. It makes me feel as if BUNGie wants the community to play the game in a manner which is forced upon us, and if we don't like it we can just not play the game anymore since that is really the only other option. TL;DR [u]Please address the currently broken loot/light leveling system.[/u] Edit #1 Pretty much 100% consensus. Progression system is ineffective. Edit #2 I totally understand the different between 319 and 320 is very miniscule. I doubt that King's Fall, Trials of Osiris, or Iron Banner will be significantly easier just because I am 320. The simple fact of the matter is I have ran all of these events every single time they have come out, and I still haven't reached that maximum level. It gets to the point where loot is making the game worse of an experience than it should be. Edit #3 I received my 320 ghost from Crimson Doubles. Thank you for that. However, I would prefer if the loot system wasn't broken to the point the development team needs to fork out ghost shells in a newly created reward package to cover up its screw up. Please address the overall system now. The poor drop rates are prevalent in the Iron Banner, any given Crucible mode, Nightfalls, Heroic Strikes, and in King's Fall both normal and Hard. THE ENTIRE LOOT SYSTEM IS FLAWED. Glad to see we are still trending over almost a month. Let's keep bumping this thread. Its been [b]an entire month[/b] and no official reply. [b]This thread is currently the #4 top rated for feedback, and we still can't get an official response [/b] Cozmo, I have a hard time taking you seriously. You don't address anything at issue. Please address the loot system. Make a statement. Give us statistics. I mean come on. Everyone already knows that the loot with the Crimson Doubles was a joke. THE SAME THING IS OCCURRING EVERYWHERE ELSE IN THE GAME!!!!!!!!!! We get responses about petty improvements that will not make any real impact on the game as compared to a revamping of the loot system.
