Hello, this is my first and probably my only forum post so cut me some slack. [disclamer: I love what you are doing with the game, I love this community and i do not meen nor want to offend anyone, this is meant to be an idea for you to hopefully use in the future] I am a solo player through and through, and bungie constantly says they dont want fomo, so uh where is my vex mythoclast, submission, and fatebringer. I meen come on bungo... deliver on your promises.There are alot of solo players in this community that need this stuff more than me,and I have an idea to make it more accessable to those players.
First i am able to get a couple raid spoils from chests i get by oobing and stuff so maybe how like you have a pinnacle weapon section in the exotic kiosk at the tower, make a raid and dungeon weapon section so that you can buy the weapons straight up with spoils!!! Make it a random roll or pull a Xur and make the rolls rotate each week so we have a reason to try and do raids so that we can get these weapons without an lfg. Also if you could make the spoils drop from dungeons instead of just raids, it will help everyone so that you can (without backlash) patch the oobs to get these spoils currently.
Well thats it for now, if you want me to try and elaborate more say so and i'll try. Good day and good bye.
The whole point of having exclusive weapons and armors for the raids is to entice players to play the content ie “fear of missing out” on items.
The kiosk is only there to allow folks to obtain things not currently obtainable in the game (dcv content, etc.)
While I can appreciate that you want those weapons and that the lfg experience is not optimal, it devalues the raid and it’s content to have those items available outside of the raid experience while said raid experience is available in the game.
I would really like the shader for the flawless deep stone crypt run but our clan group never quite got there and the few times I tried to run it with lfg it wasn’t optimal. If Bungie went and put that shader in the eververse store for bright dust, it totally devalues the accomplishment of the players who have it. And that’s just a shader.
The one thing you said I can get on board with is putting some spoils available in dungeons to help lapsed players be able to get DISCONTINUED items more quickly.
