I know this is a broken record at this point, but every time I boot up Destiny I log out 5 minutes later and the one thing I miss the most is build diversity.
By simplifying the mod system, you all kneecapped the most fun and replayable aspect of the game...
We used to have so many different types of builds, not even including warmind cells.
By removing these options, you seriously damaged what made D2 great. The feeling of being a super powerful guardian with many tricks up their sleeve. Now everything revolves around the artifact and it gets VERY boring VERY quickly when the only thing worth running is solar subclass or solar weapons because you made it this way. Bring back the old mods or make new ones. Stop being scared of having powerful guardians. The game is NOT that serious, especially when there is no new raid or content that can be trivialized by being powerful. It's not like people are running old raids for loot anyways, so what difference does it make if my guardian can kill a yellow bar .5 seconds faster with a strong build?

I feel like we have plenty of buildcrafting options. My issue is the increased difficulty in all activities. I recently ran a solo Legend Empire Hunt for fun using a non-meta build and felt it was way harder than it should’ve been. Like, why!? It’s an Empire Hunt! Who cares!? I literally got nothing remotely relevant at the end. Why do I need to be 15-20 levels under!? It’s a non-important game mode, FFS! Just let me have some fun, Bungie! Let us be broken! Not everywhere, of course, but in most activities. I used to love solo-ing Master story missions for fun and for Ascendant Alloys, especially during the slow periods of a season. Now, it’s a nightmare to try. You better have your sweatiest build and firing on all cylinders to even have a chance of getting through one solo.
