500+ grind requires only pinnacles… sigh…

Dear Bungie, I managed to reach 500 light after quite some grind. The +2’s helped. But now I am 500 and every drop needs to be a pinnacle. Really? Not +1’s? Did it already from 400 ti 450 and it was way way too long. Let me explain it in a simple way to you. - On your character you have 8 slots - A pinnacle is a 5% drop rate. But not really because you control the drops. You never ever get 2 pinnacles within a certain amount of runs. So let’s say 2 runs. So that’s 20 x 8 =160 solo ops runs f.e. for 2 levels up assuming you get everything perfectly in the right slots. 50 levels x 160 = 9000 runs of solo ops if everything drops perfectly. Edit: After 500 it should be 50/2=25. 25x8=200. 20 runs makes 4000. Plus all the times you get a pinnacle in the wrong slot. We need more pinnacle events that give us a boost.

Actually it’s less than that. I think the average is a pinnacle every 12 runs. So 12 x8 = 96 for two levels Then 25 x 96 = 2,400 runs of solo ops. It’s still far, far too many runs of the most boring thing in the game. Either way man, we need to stop playing to make it abundantly clear to Bungie that they need to change this 💩, and toute suite. If we keep playing they will ignore our feedback. Bungie needs to feel the ire of the community and start improving this game back to where it was. I mean the irony of this game. It’s either great or Bungie “improve” it and it gets worse. They never can leave stuff alone that works. This video is the perfect analogy for Bungie and D2. Father Ted represents Bungie, Father Dougal represents the Bungie glazers and the poor car represents Destiny 2. Enjoy. https://youtu.be/vcNiYQgsBUU?si=ICJ5FUUwH4Um4uMJ
