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...

3 отв.Изменено (HumDrumHokum): 11/3/2017 4:11:24 AMIt's a nerf, but not that bad. I'm sure anyone that farmed before knows to go to Titan and farm the room with the ogre. Instead of farming the explosives, just go for the ogre. Rinse and repeat. Sure, you won't be getting 6 tokens at a time, but you'll still be getting more tokens than if you did other activities.
-
I'm just gonna do it to stock up on NM shaders. Weapons and armor for all 3 factions are just reskins anyway.
-
4 отв.Yeah I know. When I read that it pissed me off. Like seriously, why do they keep making shit more annoying to farm. Wtf. They say they want us to play out way but force us to do shit their way and farm how they want us to.
-
Lol no more cheese
-
2 отв.HA! DO is offering a grenade launcher if they win again... Is this RNG or has this been weighted?
-
2 отв.Lol they add the resource destruction and then just drop the feature entirely.
-
Изменено (IronicChem): 11/3/2017 5:30:32 AMAtleast you can do faction stuff. I can't even pledge because Bungie is freaking mentally handicap
-
So sad noob
-
4 отв.What is actually the point to destroying enemy equipment now that we don't get tokens?
-
3 отв.on the plus side the patch notes make no mention of my token farming method so maybe this time around my votes will actually count for something FWC ftw
-
I don't see a problem with the changes. The problem was and apparently still will be the terrible economy system. Tokens for RNG engrams to seldomly gotten Faction gear that will likely just be repeats is the issue. Say hello to 12 more pairs of 291 Devastation Complex and no sweet Auto Rifles.
-
2 отв.oh no! instead of exploiting a dull and minor farm method i have to actually just play the game, which was also a very easy way of earning faction rep!? whatever shall i do!? oh yeah, just play the game normally! i almost worked myself up into a worry there for a second! its a good thing i can think!
-
Gee I guess all that awesome loot will take more work to get now, or wait why bother
-
3 отв.Are you kidding me... The only nerf was to the enemy resources in lost sectors and a decrease of tokens for heroic public events. That difference is so minimal and logical I don't see how you could have a problem with it.
-
2 отв.Изменено (H0WOOD): 11/3/2017 12:52:10 AMYeah, OK, fine! The whole purpose of the patch was just to muck about with Tokens. A few more here, a few less there. For what purpose! There are only a limited number of guns and gear on the list, and if these stupid buggers think that the entire fun, purpose, point of the game is to accumulate Tokens, so you can accumulate the same guns'n'gear, they're crazy! I'm not doing strikes now, because they sure as hell aren't fun, and all I get is a few Tokens. Nothing's changed! I don't do Nightfall now, because I just can't get past the timer, it sure as hell ain't fun, and all I get is a few Tokens. Nothing's changed! Public Events can be a bit of fun sometimes, as long as you're happy to ride endlessly around the freakin planet on your bike, looking for one that actually has players in it! And the reward! Yay!!! Tokens. Are these fellers on the same planet as most of the rest of us? I rattled up 550 Tokens for the four planets, mainly for something to sort of look at as an achievement. I went to Sloan with 200, and said, "Gimme some stuff." She did. Most were duplicates (with the same roll, natch, as per the rules) and the odds and ends weren't something that I got excited about. D1 was similar, just that they cut out the token bullshit (or other way around, D2 introduced the token bullshit.) but at least you might get a better roll on the gun or gear. Not now! why? Because dumbass Smith decided that the whiney's were outclassed in PvP. As soon as they got shot with anything, it had to be nerfed for the unattainable balance. I got news for ya Smithy, old lad... [i]It doesn't matter a rat's ass what the guns or gear is, the match will [u]always[/u] be won by the better player![/i]

1 ответHow do I pledge allegiance to a faction? When I talk to the faction peeps, they're all just like, "hey we're awesome, wouldn't it be great to be one of us?" Then the emo one /wrists and passes out. Not sure what that's all about. Either way, I haven't been able to join a faction.

9 отв.Can't wait to get that grenade launcher... [spoiler]Dumbass fanboys...[/spoiler]

Изменено (unspoken threats): 11/3/2017 4:02:21 AMThe biggest most glaring issue I have with this is not the reallocation of how tokens are obtained, but that none of the weapons are worth grinding for. This is my personal opinion and many may disagree; however, I pledged allegiance to FWC initially and got True Prophecy and The Number (beasts in their respective classes) as well as the scout, albeit I wasn’t as hyped as others were about it. That said, New Monarchy and Dead Orbit’s guns were mediocre. There’s no need, currently, for me to pledge allegiance elsewhere for rewards I don’t believe will diversify my arsenal. I’m glad they’ve made strikes more enticing, but f all that jazz. I’m good.
-
Изменено (mxgreg): 11/3/2017 3:51:27 AMYeah, what a bummer.... I figured they would pull some crap like that. It sounds like the removed all the ways we were getting tokens. They love to nerf anything that is working rather that tweaking what is not. I'm not sure how much I'll play, it's not going to be worth the time. +2 tokens for doing 12 - 15 minute strike. (~ 1 pkg per hour) NF you only get them you 1st play through. Sounds like lost sectors will be the best bet, but how many of those can you do before extreme bordom puts you to sleep? LOL. It's like most of the game I doubt will see any major changes unless people stop playing or play less.
-
Does it matter? Get all the tokens you want... Guns are just literally more reskins. I’m doubtful they’ll even have meaningful stats. Yeah, hate to say it but I might sit out til dlc. And even then just play through story once. /:P
-
Enemy resources got nerfed? Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!! I shouldn't have spent all my tokens at the end just to look at armor and weapons in game. -_-
-
2 отв.Didn't they say that they were going to implement a way to buy gear with shards the next go'round? Yeah the changes you mention suck, but I'm not going to get all cranky about it until I know for sure I won't have something to spend these 4812 shards on.
-
1 ответИзменено (DuBChiri2): 11/3/2017 2:27:10 AMI don't honestly mind. I mean, it's giving hardcore people a meaningless grind...eh, EEEEEH You know it's true.
-
6 отв.So what happens when you can buy the gear? You grind for an hour and buy it all then complain about lack of content? Just like the game as a whole? How dare they not accommodate people who want to play 13 hours a day!
-
7 отв.Yes and no. A 3 man team can each rotate to the different lost sectors at the same time and get a total of 9 tokens (3 per section). It only works if you have 3 people in the fireteam. Doing public with three people would probably take the same amount of time but you would have only gotten 8 tokens instead.
-
6 отв.Изменено (WulfPak666): 11/3/2017 1:10:33 AMSo instead of running in and out of a room, shooting Hive eggs and maxing out your tokens in 10 minutes, you'll actually have to play strikes and public events?!! Those monsters!!
