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 ;)

  • Agreed. Seems almost pointless to do strikes but it gets old grinding public events. Gotten very few good drops on strikes.

    • I think there should be some type of bonus reward for consecutive strikes. They drop about 4 tokens at a time and I think they should make it drop more if you continue to do them. Same for crucible. It takes about 20 tokens to level up each you basically have to play strikes for a hour or crucible for 2 and that's a little to long

    • Welcome to the Destiny franchise where nothing is rewarding enough for what it puts you through.

      Other then strikes, this game is really generous. Got 5 exotics in a couple of hours. In vanilla D1, it could take days to weeks.

      • Yep better off running fast public events and hoping for exotic engrams. We need strike keys back :'(

        • I don't know about not being rewarding enough but that strike with the stealth vandal boss needs addressing. The boss needs something scaled back. I suggest a ~15 percent health reduction. He has: stealth, the shanks that endlessly spawn and tether you to the floor, the ability to disappear upon receiving x amount of damage, a bunch of adds, and he has high movement speed which makes it hard to hit crits consistently. I wouldn't mind as much but the mechanics for that encounter are just not fun.

          • I am kind of bummed they are not part of the main story. That was one thing D1 got right. The strikes were "part" of the story. Look at TDB, the Will of Crota 100% part of the story. Even the Devils Layer felt like it was included. It's a little thing they kind of miss the boat on. Looking at how thy unlock, yeah it makes sense. I just think they would be better if they were part of Vanilla story.

            • No fire team? Either use an lfg or wait for guided games

            • i despised the strikes, 20 min+ and just more bullet sponge bosses that move a bit more

            • It would be good for bungie to add legendary mods to strike loot pools. Also the Fireteam medallion helps I had 3 legendary engrams drop in 1 strike, one of which decrypted with a legendary mod at 270 attack

            • They are not designed to be rewarding at that point. You said it yourself, nightfall and raid. If you want to hit max light then do the nightfall and raid, they shouldn't make both of those obsolete because you don't want to do them.

              • Try getting 2 blue engrams from the nightfall chest. Apparently public events are more rewarding than nightfall now. Makes sense.

                • Crucible is not rewarding and strikes are not rewarding. I appreciate that legendaries and exotics don't drop a dime a dozen like D1, but there has got to be a reward system in a loot based game. Otherwise what's the point of doing them. I'm not that bored in my life.

                  • I think a better solution is have legendary mods drop more often. Or drop the level requirement t9 buy legendary mods down to 260 or 270. Legendary mods for all equipment =+5 total power level.

                  • Google 'how to level up'. There are many new activities that reward top level gear, others medium level gear, others lower level gear. It's a new game and strikes are not the way to get there, they are very good for exp and clan exp, and fun.
