People would not be asking for the removal of PvP if they would separate it from PvE when it comes to balance. We can't have power fantasy in this game thanks to that. More than 4 years of killing Gods and evolving as guardians, but we can still be killed by a single dreg or shank or just equip 1 exotic at a time.....

What was the last PvP nerf that hit PvE? Just curios.
-
Please notice that i'm not talking about nerfs. I'm talking about not being able to provide us with power fantasy due to the refusal to separate PvE from PvP.

Such as...? I just can’t think of what you’re talking about here.

I already put an example. One way of giving us something different and fresh in Destiny(PvE wise) is allow us to equip more than one exotic at a time. That would be a great way to make us feel powerful in PvE. Sadly that is never going to be possible as long as they don't separate PvP from PvE. Although being able to equip more than one exotic in PvE sounds amazing, it would just be extremely broken and unbalanced in PvP. In a game that integrates PvE and PvP like Destiny does, you can't have power fantasy without affecting balance or balance without affecting the power fantasy. They just can't coexist.

It’s an interesting idea, but PvE also needs to be challenging as well. At least, in my perspective, a raid would be a lot less interesting equipping multiple exotics.

True, It would be less interesting. But really now. When you have to do the same thing for the 40th time just to get a drop that never comes (looking at you, Y1 Vex), You want to do said activity as fast as possible. This is having a "choice". You want do have a challenge? Run the activity with a setup that isn't the "best one". An example: On D1, the best loadout for Warpriest was Chaos Dogma + Black Spindle + Oryx's HMG. If you want a challenge, go with something else. Me and some friends used to run nightfalls with No Land Beyond + sidearms for the challenge. The main point is: give players choice. Let them play the "open world" game the way they want.

That is why for raids you are not able to equip more than 1 exotic until you do your first clear.
