Gambit is a horrible game mode.i got dredgen by mistake grinding for a good bygons

I’m so sick of them putting pvp in every quest regardless of the state of pvp.

I wish this event was focused more squarely on the EAZ content which is new and pretty fun in my opinion. “Here, we made this cool new game mode! Now go play Crucible forever!”

They're both so terrible because of the imbalance in the game though.

I just quitted the game, that solstice thing is dumb-nonsense-cashgrab-grind-shit, last week saw 1 player with 2018 solstice armor and it was nothing special once I inspected it, so seeing the grind required and how fast your hard earned gear become useless I decide to stop wasting time here and stat playing something else, I'll see how the game turns out in a year maybe two in the hopes they at least fix the -blam!-ing game physics

The blue challenges are absolute cancer. 10 Gambit matches, 200 arc super final blows in the crucible, etc. Who TF wants to do that? Edit: Checked again to make sure, it is in fact 200 arc super final blows on guardians, either in the crucible or Gambit. Hunters and Titans don't have any challenges that even come close to being this long and grindy. This is some fat bullsh*t

I have two characters that I play the Titan and a hunter. I finished the green set on my Titan today it wasn't that bad, it wasn't fun, but it wasn't bad. Then I meditated in front of the statues and received my blue set.... No...just no. I'm not going to do all that. I realize that we have a month but I'm lucky if I enter The Crucible twice in a month let alone The Crucible and Gambit no thank you. The only time I play PVP really in this game is Mayhem or iron Banner. And even then it's still just a toxic trash heap.

It's that damn Truth rocket launcher... Some lady said "ain't that the Truth" the other day while I was at the store, and I ducked for cover..... Made me clutch my groceries like they were motes!!

Still better than last year

Okay so there's something that a lot of people don't realize about the Solstice quests, and I feel like its very important to share this: the Solstice is open to [b]all[/b] Destiny 2 players. This was pointed out by Paul Tassi in a Forbes article he wrote to review the event, and he views it as one of the downfalls for the design of the quest. Why does this matter? Well, as Tassi said, it is open to [b]everyone[/b]...this includes those who [i]don't own the annual pass[/i]. Why is that significant? Well, most of the game's PvE activities are locked behind the annual pass. This includes the Blind Well, Raids, Forges, Reckoning, and Menagerie, as well as Gambit Prime. If they started incorporating all of these modes as alternatives to Crucible or Gambit, it would lock those players out of the quest for the armor. This left them with a fairly bland state of activities, which is why the quest is so grindy and repetitive. In order to provide PvE and PvP options [i][b]while also[/b][/i] keeping the event open to all players, it would consist of even more mind-numbing tasks. Let me put it this way: your "PvE" alternative would be to run strikes, lost sectors, adventures, story missions, and pub events....and thats it. In order to make it an adequate challenge that fulfills the needs of a month-long event, we'd probably be seeing at least 30-50 of each of these for a full set of gear, given the decrease in difficulty from PvP to PvE. That wouldn't be fun for anyone, and would make the quest worse all around--you'd either "play a mode you don't like", or deal with a grind that makes the Izanami Forge's unlock quest look like an Eververse bounty. I feel like its very important that players understand this, yet I haven't seen a single person on this forum mention it. The argument is that you're excluding players that don't want to play certain game modes, when in reality the solution would exclude players without the Annual Pass (or lead to the worst quest in Destiny's history). This is just some food for thought, and I hope it gives some players a new perspective on the game.

Sad but Bungo finally burned me to the ground with this repetitive grind. Cant even do gunsmith for cores. Preordered Shadowkeep, but at this moment cant stand this game anymore. The way they go, is not for me.

Gambit is a nightmare with these 0 IQ players.

10 matches to me isn’t that awful....25 patrols on titan is way more boring.Im knocking out my 75 guardian kills just from invading.

I think my beefs with this event is that the Year 2 solstice focusses the grind on year 1 vanilla content. Year 2 solstice should be focussing on stuff like the blind well, forges, gambit and menagerie.
