They just made faction rallies even harder to farm?

today's patch notes: https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/Update/46437 [quote]Faction Rallies: Strikes now reward Faction Tokens at a range of 5 to 9 Faction Tokens per completion (up from 3 to 7) Nightfall now rewards 10 to 18 Faction Tokens on first completion per character Completing Heroic Public Events now rewards 5 Faction Tokens (down from 8) Destroying enemy resources no longer rewards Faction Tokens Opening Lost Sector chests now rewards 3 Faction Tokens for each fireteam member[/quote] EDIT 3: I take it all back. In Bungie's effort to slow down token farming, someone has already discovered a certain area that's even faster than last rally event with the new changes. Typical Bungie I guess. I should have known. EDIT 4: Just hit the engram cap for New Monarchy and no new scout rifle or a complete armor set (missing chest and arms). I did however get 15-20 Coronation Mark titan butt-towels with matching Restoration VIII auto rifles...

  • 1) You think that was grinding? Not even close. Some of us had to grind for [b]thousands[/b] of hours to get a few weapons(ghally/Vex/Crux). Multiple IB’s for full armor sets and hundreds of Faction ranks for a Fcking ships and or Shaders (looking at you Revenant/Comitatus!) And you’re crying about not getting everything in one event... pls! 2) They changed it because of players using said exploit! Like You..... Blame yourself. 3) If D2 isn’t as casual(I didn’t think that could ever be said) as you want it to be maybe you should try a different game. You’ll find no sympathy here. Downvoted!

    • Instead of giving actual good rewards or a worthy incentive. Bungie makes the lackluster rewards harder to get, its as if they really don’t want people to log in.

      • Lol. It’s just one of Bungie’s tactics to prolong gameplay. As long as players cling to this game and don’t move on, their strategy works. Stop projecting your hopes into one game. Move on. It’s very liberating.

        • No. Easier IMO. Lost Sectors Stashes only gave 1 Token to the player than destroyed it. Now here is how you farm it : There is a cave that three players enter, Rush to boss, kill Boss, open Chest, tokens, leave cave, reenter cave and repeat. Takes about 1:10 seconds. Each get 3 Tokens. So ya. Easier.

          • At this point i couldn't care less about Factions weapons or gear. Legendary armour is practically the same as rare gear and I'm not interested in grinding for faction reskinned weapons either. Where are all the hand crafted weapons Bungie alluded to when they told us they we're getting rid of random roll's?

              After participating in the first Faction Rally, I quickly realised just how pointless it really is. Not only that, the end reward choice was poor.

              • Yeah this game sucks. Words from a wise philosopher known as Dabest. The horses really appreciated it all. Last Tuesday was the final time the ponies saw Milkshake at the yard; he moved onto other yards to use his magical powers to help other horses. Thankfully, the ponies still saw their teacher (Milkshake) at cross-country horse events.

                Its not even the grind (which was boring enough) its the rng.. i did like 20 packages for fwc for the scout but never got it. I did get like 6 snipers though. Just gave up in the end.

              • Guys. Shadow of War and Assassins Creed Origins are out. They are damn near perfect, and all of you meatballs should be playing them, instead of wasting time praying for something that will never change. Bungie will remain the self centered ignorant scumbags they are, looking for the cheapest way to make as much money as possible. Bungie the developer is dead. Its a husk being used by Activision to force moron children to waste their parents money on microtransactions. The aaa gaming industry is damn near fcked.

                  Ok this a ridiculous complaint. I usually don't get bothered by whiners but this is just stupid... Ah the OP has barely been on the forums for a year. Makes sense now.

                  • They literally are trying to make it like every other faction...how hard is that to understand? Do you want it to be the easiest thing in the game?

                    So bungie can tell Activision that player avg gaming time has gone up and game is a success. I know what all these metrics/statistics oriented companies think. As long the chart looks nice, they dont care what happen out there.

                  • One would almost think they nerfed token drops so that players would not post all their disappointing drop rates at the end of the event. You know the ' I ranked up 30 levels and all I got was a bond and one thousand shards' . Now it will actually take some players the whole week to get max rank and by that stage will be too exhausted to bother complaining. I am not going to bother playing for nothing.

                  • [quote]today's patch notes: https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/Update/46437 [quote]Faction Rallies: Strikes now reward Faction Tokens at a range of 5 to 9 Faction Tokens per completion (up from 3 to 7) Nightfall now rewards 10 to 18 Faction Tokens on first completion per character Completing Heroic Public Events now rewards 5 Faction Tokens (down from 8) Destroying enemy resources no longer rewards Faction Tokens Opening Lost Sector chests now rewards 3 Faction Tokens for each fireteam member[/quote] So now it takes even longer to get engrams that give you mostly non-faction items and duplicates. Also with the chest lockout, does this mean loot sector chests won't give anything after a certain point? GJ Bungie. You made a bad event even worse somehow. Only way to fix this mess at this point is to have actual gear we can buy with our tokens instead of this rng engram BS. EDIT: I wouldn't mind this change if they took out non-faction items from the engrams. Last event I did the grind all week using what some of you consider the "cheese" method and still couldn't get all the guns or even 1 full armor set from one faction due to duplicates and tons of non-faction items. Why even do the event if you can't get the event rewards. EDIT again: To clarify because some of you don't understand context or need everything spelled out for you directly: The grind being extended sucks because we have no specific goal or reward to do said grind for. it's all RNG with 3/4 of the rewards being the same stuff we grind for every day.[/quote] Faction Rally is one grind I can stay away from, I got a full set of NM armour for Hunter and a full set of DO armour for Titan, only missing the gauntlets for my Warlock FWC set.

                  • In D1 ppl ground for hours, weeks and months putting themselves at the mercy of rng to get that 1 item they wanted. I fail to see why so many ppl are complaining about the rng aspect of the game now.
