Menagerie/Strike Hypocrisy

I love how everyone is super mad the menagerie is having its loot reduced saying one chest for the effort isn’t enough, but a lot of those same people also complain that Bungie hasn’t added any new strikes which are the same length, probably longer, with less payoff. Just wanted to point that out, downvote away.

    • If the glitch had never existed, people wouldnt even know the difference. Let them get upset. If you want that God roll so bad, you'll do Menagerie for it.

        Strikes are not the same length because you can skip 3/4 of them. That said, I don't care about the chest bug, menagerie is fun either way...and you can get Leviathan mods making it a better option (for the first 9 runs at least).

        • It is what it is. You can pull a lot into this issue. After my length response, the “educated” response was “Play the game and stop complaining”. Take from it what you will

        • People want new strikes so they have something new to look at. It's that that simple. Everyone complains about strike loot as well because it's trash. Strikes, like most content now, are just background noise for people to get their pinnacles and powerfuls. The only things Strikes have going for them that Menagerie doesn't is bounties and tokens, meaning strikes do add up to a higher loot pool, even if most of it is just extra trash. People don't want Menagerie to have a single chest because they don't want it to fade into background obscurity like strikes. I don't understand how people have such a hard time grasping this.

          • So true. I like the menagerie glitch, it's great! But honestly... even without the glitch it's better than most other activities! You get one or two guaranteed drops every time, you can even choose what you want. That is a massive rng reduction here!! You can do the nightfall once per week and get two rng drops with a little chance of specific loot. Normal Strikes are useless when you have done the daily and weekly challenges. But anyway.... keep the glitch bungo. thx :)

          • Yeah but strikes dont take 30 minutes and most strikes have strike specific weapons like wardens law and pinnacle weapons like wendigo. Menagerie gets boring after the first few times and I'm only playing it to get a God roll fusion now and then I'll never play it again and probably never the heroic since theres no incentive. Strikes are fun and quick and I dont have to worry about blueberries messing up the mechanics.

            • We’ve had more than enough time to farm everything from the menagerie, so a lot of us won’t have to go back anyway.

            • Putting strike specific loot into nightfalls only wasn't our idea. All Bungie.

            • Strikes have been utterly pointless beyond the powerful weekly rewards for ages now. Not to mention there isn’t much incentive to get powerful rewards (at least from strikes) once at max light.

            • They need to add bosses, rooms and rewards to menagerie and add it as a playlist. Updating with every dlc. I love the mode. And we need a new strike and crucible maps every dlc. Strike specific rewards as very drops. Curated rolls for night falls as random drops for 150k plus. Lets go!!!

              • This is how I feel as well. Unless you're not doing menagerie correctly at all, it takes about 15-20 max. Same as a normal paced strike. But at the end you get a custom loot drop of your choosing. Still worth the time investment.

                • Strikes aren't meant to be a rewarding endgame activity, the menagerie is. I would like to see strike specific loot added to the heroic strikes, but other than that, I'm fine with where strikes are atm, in terms of rewards. They'll likely be adding more strikes with Shadowkeep.

                • To be fair we've also been asking for strikes to be more rewarding for ages. I think we should go back to the D1 Skeleton key system, then make a few more pieces of loot for the chests

                  • Because menagerie is more fun and (usually) takes more time than strikes

                      • Strikes are repetitive weekly chores for powerful engrams. Yes, we do complain because they are old and tired with very little variation to enemy types and enemy placement. When the Menagerie gets fun-policed, we all will keep doing it as a weekly chore for powerful engrams... until we dont need powerful engrams.

                      • And that’s why I don’t really play strikes unless I have to.

                      • I agree with the nerf but respect bungie for not patching right away. Can't expect to get 10 farms from 1. The only thing however that needs an increase of chests is the heroic version i recommend 6 since it clearly the most challenging. You shouldn't get big rewards for farming normal menagerie when its guranteed and not at all difficult.
