I have had this happen at least 3 times this week alone.
Scenario:
I received a powerful reward that drops as expected, at a slightly higher light level. For instance; a pair of boots will drop at [u]739[/u], which seems appropriate for my current light and the level of each piece of gear already achieved....
Then, my very next "powerful reward" that duplicates a drop for the same slot (more boots) drop as my reward, but, for some reason, this "powerful drop" is 2 or more light levels below the previous set of boots and are a [u]737[/u] or lower, making the powerful reward useless.
Why?
This has happened with weapons as well as armor.
Anyone else seeing this issue with weekly drops that are "duplicates"?

I think primes and challenges can give up to +5. Most milestones now are only giving +1. Even dreaming city stuff is dropping low now with opulence out. Not sure about forges. Haven't done one since before SoD. Spider bounty and nightfall still gives decent rewards too. I usually get a plus 4 or so from them. Clan rewards are +1. Hawthorne is a cheapskate. 😂
