Pretty much exactly what the title says. *Please do not use this as a place to vent frustration over the Token system in general* UPDATE: 500 upvotes! Thanks, guys. It certainly seems like I'm not alone in thinking along these lines. This might be a bit of a long read, but please stay with me. I really want to offer an alternative alongside the existing system. In original Destiny Faction NPCs always sold a selection of Faction specific gear. Faction Leaders had a full inventory. Lord Saladin (and later Lady Efrideet) always sold a small selection of Iron Banner gear, which you could purchase based off your Rank. Not so in Destiny 2. Faction and Iron Banner RNG Packages are now the *only* way to acquire faction and IB gear. And this is proving to be very frustrating, as a lot of players are reporting exceptionally high numbers of duplicate items dropping from packages. Getting a full set of gear, and gear which you might actually wish to use, has become pure chance. And it's highly unlikely that you'll get what you are looking for. If this was the original Destiny you could at least trash those duplicates and put them towards purchasing what you actually wanted. But you cannot do this in Destiny 2, as these NPCs are no longer Vendors. Now I can understand that Bungie don't want players to unlock EVERY armour and weapon combination during the course an event. They want them to come back next time. That's fine. It's why in original Destiny Lord S and Lady E only ever sold 1 Class Item, 1 Armour piece and 2 weapons per Iron Banner Tournament. Never the whole IB inventory. That could still work in Destiny 2. I appreciate that Rank levels have been removed for Destiny 2. But the game does track the number of packages which you have turned in (towards the season reward). So what I'm suggesting is this: Continue to rely on RNG packages up until the 10th Package. But after that point add a selection of 4 items to Lord Saladin/Faction Leader's Inventory which would be available for purchase. These would only become available after turning in the 10th package. And don't use Shards as a Currency. Use event Tokens. Why? Currently in Iron Banner a player can blast through those first 10 packages in a day. Using Tokens as a currency would give those players who have unlocked the Season Reward a reason for continuing to play through that event. To afford those items - which would cost a much higher number of tokens. For Faction Rallies I think you might need to up Package threshold to unlock the Inventory - as you can get those tokens quicker. But the principle still stands the same. Players probably WON'T still get all the gear in a single Faction Rally or Iron Banner week. But it gives them more of a guarantee of something than they currently have, and more incentive to keep playing. Something specific to work towards. I personally believe that would be the fairest option. And an option which work alongside the current RNG system. Please add a like if you agree,
