3 RepliesUpvote for getting rid of the pinnacle system entirely….

2 RepliesMaybe not the exact piece you need should just drop every time you need it, but yeah. Something to keep you from getting 3-5 of the same piece every week.

1 ReplyGave up grinding for pinnacles last week... when 90% went into the energy slot after about 15 pinnacle runs (3 characters).. Grinding is mind numbing enough without getting the same stuff over and over again.

1 ReplyI got four 1580 chest pieces in a row and 2 pair of boots this week. I needed a Helmet, a Primary weapon and a Class item, then I'm 1580 on my Titan (1600 with artifact).

7 RepliesLast week 5 yes FIVE straight pinnacles dropped as gauntlets for me. FIVE!!!!!!!! What an F'ing waste of a life of grinding!

After last night and getting 3 back to back to back kinetic pinnacles u have my vote. 🤣🥲

All my pinnacles this week have been weapons. Kinetic and energy only. That's it.

2 RepliesI have been 1579 for about 2 weeks now, just need a cloak and no cloak this week again. Kind of over it now.

13 RepliesThey should get rid of the stupid soft cap, that would fix the whole problem, that's the only reason we "need" pinnacles in the first place. It's just a lazy way to stretch out content. What's REALLY stupid is when the new season starts, they put a good portion of the content with the new gear you want to get behind the higher power level cap, then they make the climb TO the higher levels a pain in the -blam!-... It makes no sense. It's like they WANT to incentivize players to become annoyed and leave...

11 RepliesThey’ve already said there will be a massive overhaul to leveling coming with Light Fall.

This is one of the few games I’ve played where I can actually feel worse the more time I spend in a session. To spend hours grinding pinnacles or activities or whatever, only to walk away with nothing but time wasted. Yes, I know the answer is “play smart”, but when you reduce the game to statistics and micro management, it’s not a game anymore, it’s a task designed solely to keep you coming back, doing the same thing over and over again. Destiny was designed to serve itself, not the players.

2 RepliesIf Bungie really is getting rid of it in season 19, they really should just say so we don't have to keep complaining about it. Maybe even take this time as an opportunity to try out some loot protection algorithms since it can't really get much worse than it is now.

7 RepliesEdited by TheShadow: 9/14/2022 11:44:29 PMYou do realize it doesn't matter how many upvotes you get, nothing will ever be done unless Bungie wants to do something about it? I remember Cozmo saying at one point that the top trending post on here would be talked about. Hmm, when was the last time any CM actually attempted to do this or been around for that matter other than DMG's recent reply that only said No?

I’m saying “no” as someone who could have done with some kind of protection as I was a proud member of the “Forever 29” club. If I had not endured in my games to get that final bit of gear I would have missed out on many epic experiences with my guys trying to get that final bit to drop. If we were all handed things on a plate the game would get very stale, very quick. Look at Vanilla D2 - static rolls… once you had one of everything there was nothing left to do. Players were leaving in droves. “Time investment / reward” is another popular statement at this time. What a lot of people fail to realise is the experience of playing and sharing in the game is its own reward. Yeah you go another week not being “max”…. But you had some great laughs. Some decent chill time with your hobby. The opportunity to go again. Feel your pain but this is D2.

This is a good game trapped in a broken progression system. So far I've wasted 1.5hrs of my time grinding events that were not rewarding because the rng, not my effort decides if I level up. I think people play this game for 2 reasons. 1) Because they are having fun. 2) Because it's rewarding. An rng pinnacle grind isn't fun to me, or rewarding. I would love to replay the Witch Queen campaign, or be working on a flawless dungeon, but instead I'm playing 3 rounds of gambit because it's Tuesday. Despite it's problems, I actually don't mind Gambit, but I don't want to play it every week. I don't believe this is the Destiny the developers set out to create. Personally I'm done with pinnacles, I rather play whatever I want, with whatever subclass, and weapons I enjoy.

Honestly, they should just get rid of power levels. They serve no purpose when most of the game is either base power, power disabled, or power capped. The build and crafting grind is enough to sustain the player base, so let us play what we want. GMs, master dungeons, and master raids already require focused build-crafting to complete. The addition of power is just a frustration. This is coming from someone who routinely reaches max power and +23-26 power each season. I’m tired lol.

Edited by Toots238857: 9/13/2022 11:56:44 AMI stopped trying. I just played for fun now and good rolls on weapons and armor. Working as they intended it to. It's like sending my Titan into battle with full armor on, except for a pair of SHORTS on that are 1579 light! 😆 🤣

2 RepliesNot chasing pinnacles for this exact reason. Sanity is way more valuable than any Master Nightfall.

7 RepliesBoth my Hunter and titan need legs to be on 1580. 1579 is one sh¹t place to be in. Done most of my pinnacles inc IB only to drop weapons i already have. One mate in my clan got it bad. All his pinnacles were either kinetic or heavy weapons. No armor nothing. This includes duality etc. Best would be to mitigate this would be for us to "Focus" the pinnacles.

Wish I could upvote twice.

It’s seems broken across the board . I had 21 engrams to claim from shaxx ……16 were energy weapon slot ….9 in a row . I mean it’s destiny so what isn’t broken 🤷🏼♂️😂
