Strikes are not Rewarding enough!!!

Thank you for all the comments and likes good to see an active helpful community. With strikes i understand it drops possiblilities rare + gear and what i dont unerstand is how you can make me do strikes when the gear does not drop at higher than 265+ ,i am 269. So how do i get up my light level when I don't have a fireteam to do nightfall or raids. Please fix this, whats the point of strikes anymore... I have read the replies so far and it seems 50 percent agree and 50 percent dont. What I'm getting at is the fact right now on d2 I have no way of getting good gear EXCEPT from nightfall - which I've done. Now there isn't a way to get good gear and strikes seem to be the 2nd option. So without raids / trials yet what do i do. Strikes seem not good enough. This is most likely from the high leveling speed we have in D2 as i havent really enjoyed powering up as it has been like a blur. Especially if you grind like me. Thank you for reading. Shameless plug : join The Galactical Fighters for a competitive and active clan. Recently made. Thanks ;)

      Considering how easy it is already to get legendaries from reputation it honestly doesn't bother me how little strikes drop in terms of GOOD rewards. But, I feel like strikes SHOULD drop more glimmer and at least 2-3 blue engrams, with a chance at legendary/exotic engram. Considering how I haven't gotten a single exotic from multiple completions of strikes including nightfalls (trying to get rat king, my clans mascot exotic) but have gotten 2 exotics from crucible and 3 from Public event chests...yeah they aren't rewarding enough.

    • You do know the requirements for the strikes is 140 power which isn't going to drop any high level gear. Just wait until they unlock heroic or prestige strikes

      • You can get the same level gear (rare-exotics) from public events which every 5min, while strikes take, usually 8-15 minutes usually, so.. strikes seem kinda pointless

        • Does giving tokens to level up reputation xp with devrim, shaxx, failsafe, sloane, etc. give you a chance for exotic drop through their legendary engrams?

          • Too much time wasted on a strike for poor rewards. Public events are where it's at.

            • Flashpoints and call to Arms. And exotic quests. And if your under 365 basically everything.

            • First off the game just came out Bungie doesn't need children being max light in the first week so calm down Second off milestone rewards are your ticket to high light with that said they're like weekly rituals Why don't you wait till next reset and because the day after that is the raid And trials comes out on the Friday along with the first Xur Stop complaining about how you can't be max light you're the type of player who ruined D1 by making light leveling easy

              • Strikes are useless when doing a public event gives you the same rewards.

              • Agreed. They give so little for how long it takes when you can just fast travel around and do public events and get way more loot.

                  Xur is coming next week, he probably still sells 3oC, that's how I leveled in Destiny.

                • Are there strike specific loot? I haven't got much other than some rep and maybe a blue or 2. There are no heroic strike with match making? So we just have the 140 play list with match making? Right? With 5 strikes? It's funny that there is less match making, because in D1 I never would have done NF's or RAID's without meeting people while running the heroic strikes.

                • I'm bumping this because I also feel like strikes are not a worthwhile activity when you have public events constantly dropping in the game world. Why not a heroic strike list that drops legendary shards or something else useful for us 265+ Guardians?

                • If the game is too much for you alone and you don't have a fireteam, maybe think about changing yourself, an individual case than the entire game that is heavily based on teamwork. The game is already easy enough

                  • more rewarding than crucible, it takes about 20 tokens to level up a faction, each strike if done effectively takes about 10 minutes, and awards you about 3-4 tokens and a shite ton of blues with possible exotic and legendary, Crucible is at minimum 10 minutes, and awards 1-2 tokens (extremely rare for that second one) and its harder to get legendary and exotics. also to point out shaxx gives you multiple duplicates as where zavala doesnt give as many, if any loot drops need changing its crucible needs a buff in its chances

                  • i agree to a point.. but then again if the strikes always gave out better stuff or more legendaries why would anyone do the raid or play trials when they are released? it should of taken people a month a get max light level, but guess what people are already 304 for light when i thought the cap was 300..

                    • The only reason I'm mad yet is cause I have a feeling this was just for release and they will add a higher difficulty option for strikes that rewards 300+ and you'll obviously have to be 300+ to play it

                    • At the moment there are few ways to get gear above 265 which seems to be the initial cap on power If you saved any side quests that reward powerful gear / exotic quests, that's a good option for higher power Exotic engrams usually drop at a higher power so farming those can be a good plan (crucible seems like a great place for it even if you lose the match and heroic public events have an increased chance at exotics) Clan rewards give you powerful gear rewards which are great for leveling Doing the nightfall gets you a powerful gear engram which helps as well. You can also ensure you have all gear that can take the +5 attack / defence mods equiped From my own experience I noticed that the cap for legendary engram can raise up by 5 power if you manage to cross a certain threshold in your own power. I was stuck at 272 power and used my attack/defence +5 mods and raised to 273 and then noticed all my legendary engrams now cap at 270 not 265.

                    • There are some things that give "powerful rewards". Push your left trigger while in the director every day and see what pops up. I did five public events or something (flashpoint I think it was?) and got a 278 Sunshot.
