I stopped playing Edge of Fate at step 25 of 31. Stopped playing Renegades at Territory Wars step 11 of 17, didn't care for the whole syndicate thing. Can't do much of anything outside the portal as it doesn't drop anything but trash. All I've done is play solo Caldera until I can do it in my sleep and just started to see drops at 421. Bungie is doubling down on the Portal and intent on killing all destinations on the map outside the Portal. No more exploration, public events, bounties, regional chests or any diverse gameplay that adds to the feel of an expensive yet cohesive universe where guardians wander at large.
