Light level grinding is antiquated system and serves no purpose
Power level is grind that forces players to do activities they have no desire to do. I don't want to raid for power drops. I want to raid for enjoyment of the activity or targeted loot. Just abolish it. It gatekeeps for the sake of gatekeeping.
I dont really have an issue with the system itself, just the RNG tied to the drops. All have my pinnacles have dropped in my highest slots so far this week, so no forward progress on my level. I have long thought that this was by design, as it always seems to happen (although later in the pinnacle grind than currently).
I do kind of like hopping through activities for the powerful rewards to fill in my slots after I get my pinnacle bump, but im just sitting and waiting now because all of my pinnacles were worthless and a complete waste of time.
