Trials freelance should be permanent

Especially in the flawless pool. Don’t care if it separates the play base. Let the top1% suffer

  • Bungie, You recently lashed out on twitter vehemently condemning the communities overwhelmingly negative response to Void 3.0. (@Dmg-4). You insisted that the community provide "constructive criticism" so here it is. First, it is critical to understand that the backlash which caused your response did not occur until Trials of Osiris returned for the season. This competitive PvP mode quickly forces players to contend with toxic and desperate synergies of Void 3.0. The abused abilities which caused the majority of the complaints are ultimately crutches for new players that are abused by skilled players. Shatter dive was the previous crutch that guaranteed new or low skilled players multiple ability kills in every match. Infinite invisibility or Infinite over-shield are the new crutches that increases survivability with the roll back of ability regeneration rates. While this seems nice to encourage players to participate it is ultimately always abused by skill-gap players and adversely discourages the participation or continued play you hope for. To prevent toxicity and abusive mechanics provide actual balance. Bungie pays exceptionally smart individuals six figures to code algorithms which facilitates the performance and experience of the game. These codes are tested in beta communities where spamable abilities and other potential quality of life performance issues can be uncovered. Spend more time in this phase of development and actually take action when potential issues are anticipated. Ultimately, Guardians are exceptionally intelligent and exploits cheeses and abusive synergies will be uncovered. Therefore, Freelance PvP was a strong deterrence and alternative to arguably broken or crutched abilities and safeguarded the experience by allowing players to craft a build to combat ability spam. It is exceptionally more difficult to outplay crutches when it is 1v3. This frustration is exasperated when the process is repeated each season. The hunter is designed to cater to new players for profits therefore they will always be given an edge in the game mode that new players avoid most. This cycle of abusing crutches and ruining competitive PvP will always continue because of Money. Void 3.0 is not Broken, Bungies values are. -Absolute
