Gunsmith rank up is WAY too slow

Please adjust. Gunsmith is finally useful but I've been stuck on rank 9 for like a week now. I'm not saying it should rank as easily as it used to, but this is terribly slow.

  • I’ve dismantled thousands of pieces of armor and weapons since Witch Queen came out and I’m only Fabled III with the Gunsmith. Haven’t touched a single Gunsmith bounty though.

    • It's probably because people would just buy from collections and delete to rank up fast if they had the resources

        • Absolutely. I’ve run 8-9 bounties almost every day day for the past two weeks and I think I’m level 9. That along with the almost constant dismantling of gear, to only be at level 9? That’s ridiculous isn’t it?

        • do bounties help? If not, do a lot of end game activities, you'll get a bunch of useless weapons you can breakdown. I don't even do the pinnacles and I'm at 13

          • The Gunsmith rank system is designed to influence you to dismantle many of the weapons in your vault. Don't rely on drops only for significant progress.

              Love how they got rid of and made us spend all of our gunsmith mats just so we can gain rep the exact same way but at a slower pace

              • I agree. It's super disproportionate to the other vendors. I've been playing A LOT since Witch Queen dropped. I've reset Vanguard like 3 times, am over 30 with Fynch, etc etc., and I'm always scrapping gear and doing Banshee bounties, and I'm only at rank 12. It's pretty ridiculous.

                  • I just don't understand why they felt that Banshee needed a similar ranking system as the core playlist. Regardless, I do agree that the process to increase his rank is too slow.

                      Yes they made his rewards like the other reps... But it's meant to be extra you do along side the others. Do you see a gunsmith ritual activity on the map? Because I don't. If there was then sure, speed that -blam!- up. Do agree they could make getting his engrams faster though.

                      • Yes it is to slow I'm at rank 9 with him while in the others like vanguard I reseted already and for shaxx I'm rank 16. Overall it is very slow.

                        • If you are compelled to rank up faster you get 80 rep per character doing the daily bounties, so 240 rep a day right there. Not something I’d be willing to do but an option if you want it to go faster. I’ll level up when I level up. 🤷🏼

                          • Agreed. First banshee was 20 xp per rank... Then it was 100 xp per rank because bungie said people stockpiled lots of materials before forsaken...and they would lower the requirement afterwards...which never happened. Blue's were 1 xp. Legendary's 3 xp. Now its over 200 xp per per rank.

                          • They will leave it [b]as is [/b] for the entire season (to maximise hamster wheel time) Then state at the end of S16 that it was a bug & will be rectified in S17 They did that last season with Gambit & Vanguard (they were 75% slower than they intended) I still don’t think they’ve fixed Gambit/Vanguard ranking this season

                            • If your really that worried about it just do the dailys, couldnt tell you how much they give becaus I see no reason to fly through Banshees ranks in a week.... in reality though... its the third week of the season... like you have over 70 more days and your over half way done... I swear people just want everything handed to them.

                            • When I saw that Master Rahool’s enhancement core sale was bugged I thought it was no big deal, I’ll just rank up my reputation with Banshee… … in about a month or two.

                              • I said the other day that it seems 1/4th the speed but honestly so far I'm four times more ore likely to be interested in the reward.
