Serious question Bungie, do you actually hate your players? I haven't seen a more user-hostile set of mechanics than what I've seen in the last week. This isn't a "bug" or an "issue". You designed this train wreck intentionally to create an artificially tedious grind and now you're trying to walk it back. Consider how broken this sequence of events is for a moment: 1. I had already completed a rare bounty on my Warlock last week, without it having any special impact on this questline. 2. I had a rare bounty on my Hunter ready to go this reset, but guess what? I picked up the black armory mold on my Warlock, with no indication it was account-locked. 3. So, now I am time-gated for the Shattered Throne this week, with my Hunter having a rare bounty, but no mold. My Warlock has a mold, but no bounty. 4. The rare bounty step is [i]before[/i] the Shattered Throne step, so I either get lucky on my Warlock and find another rare bounty before reset (then tediously grind through it again), or I can go screw myself for three weeks. There's exactly zero chance you fix this before reset and even less chance that you'll modify the quest steps to remove the Shattered Throne. Anyone in my position can just get bent and eat it. You bang on about "player engagement", then you create demoralising situations like this and practically beg your players to find an excuse to quit the grind altogether. I guess you're doing me a favour. I probably play this game too much. Now is as good a time as any to cut back.
