Bright Dust not worth the grind
Bungie has made the cost of items, with bright dust, extremely high and not worth grinding for dust anymore.
Bungie has nitpicked Destiny2 to death. If it is fun for the guardian or helps the guardian acquire or achieve something, Bungie alters it or destroys it.
GO THE FOCK AWAY, BUNGIE

2 RepliesYou might want to add this to the comments but they should give people that have bought the season pass a discount on items in EV IMO. Or give them more dust for leveling up the seasonal artifact.

Found this it shows the numbers and everything. Old activity’s shouldn’t be takings away time from the new stuff

Edited by TJ_Dot: 11/24/2019 5:20:10 PMI love when Luke Smith Said that dust would just come from bounties so that it would be naturally earned like anything else. Meanwhile: Bounties aren't even natural rewards like Shards or Glimmer Not even every bounty got Dust as a reward. I'm really done with this guy. I'm sorry, I think he's running us into the ground, hoping we'll still throw money at the screen when all that's left is our hands sticking out of the dirt and our money in a bucket next to each of us.

1 ReplyThe fact that those daily bounties literally grant 10 bright dust is like, surreal. It’s like a joke.
-
Man I support any post like this but at this stage you’re really just asking to get abuse from fanboys
-
1 ReplyOh it isn’t. Which is why I don’t really care about wasting my time on these bounties for a measly 10 BD. I have enough from left over seasons, if I find anything compelling to pick up. But other than that, I just don’t care at this point. They want to make the cash shop more important than the rest of the game? It’ll be their own downfall if enough people get annoyed about it. They don’t listen anyway.

32 RepliesLol! I remember the dozens of players who said,~"bright dust will be more available just by playing the game." I'm still amazed at the ignorance Bungie preys upon, and still can fool over 5 years later with their marketing gimmicks. I guess if they can still make money, I'd keep doing it, too.

29 RepliesA season is ten weeks, or at least Undying is. You can earn 3600 bright dust each week at a casual pace of about 2-4 hours a week. At the end of ten weeks that is 36,000 bright dust plus probably 1-2k if you consistently do bounties. Soooo that’s anywhere from 15-25 eververse items a season just for playing. Now I will say, they need to change the rotation aspect of bright dust items. I should be able to buy what I want at any given point if I have the funds, cuz it does F you over if you simply don’t have enough during the week it comes up

1 ReplyAdd it to the giant list of things this game has that aren’t worth the grind.

1 Replyyou can find a reason to say any given thing isn't worth the grind. That being said you can get 1200 Bright Dust per character per week. That's 3600 bright dust per week running 3 toons. My only complaint is the fact I can run 4-5 strikes and still not have a single hive/vex kill. Run Pyramidion outside of the playlist for vex kills and it's the Taken version so I get like half the vex kills I need. Gambit and Crucible don't tend to be that bad usually. The problem now becomes the pointless grind of actually doing these things week after week solely for bright dust. 2 cents. End of the day there's more than enough earnable dust to be able to purchase items.

There’s nothing worth buying. It’s all locked behind Silver.
-
Also -blam!- everyone new who wants to get the bright dust tributes in the ship.
-
5 RepliesYup, they pretty much removed our ability to play the game the way we wanted to play (Eververse bounties) while also severely nerfing the amount of bright dust thats even possible to earn. It’s insulting to our intelligence to even make it look like they want us to be able to “earn” cosmetics. Just remove bright dust entirely and lower the price of cosmetics. This is getting ridiculous.

Stop giving them your money.

6 RepliesThe trouble isn’t the price. It’s the new game model. They’ve turned Destiny into a F2P game but the trouble is for me and a lot of people, we paid full price for each and every expansion or DLC at its launch. My running total for the game is well above £200 and when I look at the amount of effort and loot that goes into EV each and every season and what it’s going to cost me to buy anything then it just makes me a bit salty. Now if I didn’t bother to buy each and every expansion, DLC, season pass/battle pass or whatever they want to call it. And joined the game now FOR FREE. I would be over the moon. A finished game with loads to do for FREE! I would probably buy a few cosmetics just to show my gratitude. But I didn’t. I supported Bungie from the start and all I can see is them trying to squeeze more money out of me. They need two price tiers. 1. For those that paid for the game. Then another for the F2P crowd.

7 RepliesThe community indirectly asked for this. You know, when you (not you personally) kept telling the ppl moaning about Eververse that "everything was attainable through in-game playing, dismantling stuff for dust etc" and that "you don't need to buy silver", and stuff like "I have 999,999 bright dust stockpiled".

D2 not worth the grind
-
5 RepliesFor me it's a passive grind. I don't mind it, it's easy. If you don't want to grind for dust, you don't get cosmetic items. Nothing lost. You can still compete as well as if you had bought the items.
-
3 RepliesSaw this coming A MILE AWAY!! Had a nice stock pile of 180,000 of bright dust when shadowkeep came out! Y'all really need to stop falling for the marketing BS that Bungie puts out.

Edited by Kouz_MC: 11/24/2019 4:27:48 AMthere’s nothing to buy with bright dust. 1) ornaments are ugly, 2) sparrows and ghosts are useless, they have all the same perks and we’re already fine with the tens we got. 3) finishers require silver, but as I watch them over and over and I’m like: buh the basic ones are just fine/better and I don’t need anyone to waste his super for one Special synth, when I have special ammo finder and scavenger. Eventually I spend bright dust for the sake of it. I bought the 3 festival of the lost ornaments thinking that we could change their colors, but nope, it’s mandatory crap colors. So I ended up spending 18k on something that isn’t worth the time I wasted pressing X at eververse. Anyways, who irl would ask Californian techs how to dress!?
-
Yeah, It's really not. This is a situation where "hardcore" no lifers might be able to buy a few items, but casual players would have to pay real money or go without. Scummy Bungie. Real scummy.
-
Its a strongarm tactics to get u to buy silver to bypass the grind...
-
3 RepliesYou’re telling me that the 10 Bright Dust you get from each additional bounty that costs 3,000 Glimmer each is not worth it? That’s weird. Seems like Bungie really listened to the fan base on this one.
-
8 RepliesYou can easy 3000 a week by completing all weeklies on all three characters.

They should just make it so that all in game activities reward bright dust. Then if they want to balance it out they can add diminishing returns on bright dust from activities after a while. I mean at gear level 950+ I have no desire to play gambit or run regular strikes but I feel forced to I'm order to get bright dust.
