[quote] Firstly it eliminates any choice in the order you do your activities if you want to actually be rewarded, as increases are based on your average power level it's pointless doing any +1 PL activities before doing the +5 ones. [/quote] How is +1 pointless, you are progressing you're just progressing slower. Your choice has not been taken away, your just choosing to stay away from the activities necessary, because you don't like them as much. False argument. [quote] If one of your clan-mates jumps on and wants to hit up strikes, tough luck if you haven't cleared the nightfall/dreaming city yet, you either lose out on power or tell them to find someone else. [/quote] You can't skip content, we all have to play it to progress. [quote] Secondly it HEAVILY penalizes you if you end up having a large amount of equipment clustered around your average power, with one low item bringing that average down. You can no longer take advantage of any of the +1 power activities unless you first boost that one low piece of gear. This can lead to players falling far behind their peers based purely on the distribution of their drops rather than the effort they put in. For example if my gear is all 522+ and I have a pair of boots at around 215 dragging the average down to 521, all of my +1 gear will drop at 522 making it useless unless I luck out and find a pair of boots.[/quote] I might be wrong, but I think this is not how progression works... Powerful gear should drop above your highest possible light level, not the average of your inventoried gear... If it does, stop complaining and just delete the gear, problem solved. [quote] Thirdly and the biggest issue is players have wasted effort particularly this week, because none of the power level increases are explained anywhere in game. The entire system is left ambiguous with all the rewards being listed identically as "powerful engrams". Bungie needs to show the difference in game between activities that will reward +5 power and +1 power, rather than expecting us to trawl through their twitter feed, blog posts and youtube creators analysis to find the answer.[/quote] Or you know, play the game, pay attention and learn what does what. Do you need to be spoonfed? You can also ask your clan-mates or find a more experienced clan, The whole point of the drops being random is to keep tryhards from burning through the content too fast. [quote]As the title says the new progression system could do with a revisit, [/quote] Nope. It's fine the way it is. Infusion could do with a look but progression is fine.
