Congratz Bungie. You have removed 100% desire to do queen's wrath

Your removal of ALL shards from dismantling the queen's rewards give me exactly 0 reason to do this event. What a gross overreaction to the situation. Here is how you should have handled it: 1) remove the level 2 mission from the playlist. I agree, this was way too fast to get shards 2) nerf the shard count to 1 or 2. Getting 2 shards for a 30 minute mission that is pretty tough is a fair reward for something that is temporary.

  • Same. I'll do the bounties for rep/xp...but no more kill orders. If the kill orders even gave, say, 7500xp and maybe 100 rep I'd be over them. Until then, nope.

    • I have to agree with you. I've already acquired all the gear multiple times. And why in the hell are they offering rare weapons to buy? What the hell is the point of gaining reputation?

    • A 30 minute mission my ass. I did some in 10-15. Work to get your shards you scrubs. I earned mine and not from some ragtag event like the queens wrath.

      • The easy solution is to just raise the price of entry. Instead of taking one Queen's Orders make it take three. If that was still resulting in players gaining too many upgrade materials too quickly raise it to four or five. It'd be annoying but it would still allow players to work towards a goal and walk away with a reward.

      • shards and energy is the rarest commodity in the game, it would be retarded if dismantling this would give them. however, once i got a good enough roll with the guard chest I lost any incentive to actually do the story missions that you get assigned after queen bounties

      • I have 2 missions but there is no reason for me as a full legendary geared to do this anymore, its just for people who don't have legendary gear pretty much.

        • After two days of doing queen content I quit doing it. It was garbage!! So stingy on those ascendant shards

        • Exactly but I suppose I could continue doing the bounties for the items you can buy using glimmer from the emissary. However the removal of shards by dismantling the equipment gained from the challenges discourages greatly from participating in this event.

        • Or putting a hard cap on how many times you can receive a legendary per day would have been fine as well. I know people who got 20+ a day doing it and that's why they canned it.

        • use your crucilbe & vanguard marks to purchase legendary gear and then dismantle it....that still works. I spent 195 crucible marks yesterday for two feet and an arm and got 7 shards....better than nothing. Depending on what XUR has today I may spend my rare coins & motes of light on some exotic stuff to dismantle.

          • 0 reasons, barring the obscenely high level of experience one accumulates by doing Epic tier missions. Experience which can earn Motes of light and by extension exotic weapons and armor. So no, really no reason to do that

          • If anything, Bungie, should have put a weekly or daily limit on the number of shards you could get from breaking down the armor. That would give a little incentive to the top tier players who dont care about getting the armor as much as breaking it down for shards

          • just want to say that queens missions werent designed to be done alone, if done even at lvl 24 in a group of 3 they are extreamly easy. also shards should not be acumulated that fast, ( i made 18 shards in on day doing queens missions) shards arent ment for lvl 24-26s tbh they are ment for lvl 27-30.. being able to farm enough shards to max your 26 gear, 28 gear 29 gear and 30 gear from one event would literealy break the game and would harm future content. also the fact that at Rank 2 with queens wraith you can buy legendary queens gear with GLIMMER,.... this was litteraly going to -blam!- shit up... you can still even have the hotfix farm your glimmer cap EASY and just spend it all on legendary items to break down. you realise there would be people with over 300 shards by end of event... the proper fix would have been that each mission gaurentees a piece of queens gaurd gear you havent gotten yet and upon aquiring all pieces you lose ability to get from rewards for free, but still alow ability to buy and simply make them cost a certain curancy instead of glimmer

            • I disagree, being able to basically guarantee one or two levels a day for legendary and/or exotic armor is too much, and in the long term damages the game more by rushing you straight to the end of the game. Besides, you can actually get more then just armor as loot from Kill Orders as there are some harder to find drops that can drop alongside legendary armor, so they are far from useless. I'm glad they made this change. It felt almost immoral the rate at which the shards came in. I mean considering you can get 10 as a drop from Nightfall but you can obtain even more just by doing daily Queen events? Definitely overpowered. It's just a shame this wasn't caught sooner before people got hooked on it.

              • They don't players leveling too fast. It's to get the players to play the game longer by finding other ways of eating shards and such. We know how rare those are. They don't want people just breezing through the levels and that's understandable. The game has been out for a couple of weeks. I have no problem with the fix.

                  Dude seriously you get a guaranteed legendary everytime. And could get a good amount of shards each day im glad they nerfed it. Thats to easy. Plus theres still a damn good reason to keep playing the queens missions. Collecting all the legendary armor amd weapons

                    You self entitled plebs sicken me.. boo hoo they took away your "welfare shards" Bungie is spot on here, the whole point of the queen event is to gear up fresh level 20's & those that can't put in the time required to get their purple head & chest. Keep up the good work Bungie, don't remove the best part of the game which is rewarding players that DO put in the time. **Edit (Clarification) I consider people stuck/reluctant to advance in the early levels of 20,21,22,23 to be "Fresh Level 20's"

                    • [quote]Your removal of ALL shards from dismantling the queen's rewards give me exactly 0 reason to do this event. [/quote] I'm sorry to hear that. Some of us have good reasons to do the event because we don't have much legendary gear yet, and also would like to have a good time on a mission we haven't played. I'm assuming you may have shot up to a higher level before this event came out so it may just not be for you, especially if you mostly care about getting loot, and not simply playing a new mission just for the fun of it. I know, a weird concept!

                      • I don't usually jump on the patch hate bandwagon, but the rage for this patch is entirely deserved. There might be some justification for this if Queen's Wrath wasn't an event. Yesterday I was excited to farm challenging missions for upgrade materials and a possible legendary sniper drop. Instead, today I am playing games made by developers who don't take dumps on their playerbase. If Bungie had [i]wanted [/i]to ruin their first world event they couldn't have planned it better.

                        • Love when people cry cause they can't do something easily anymore, you can tell they have never played a real MMO and really had to grind before. For the real Destiny players that aren't retards and understand what type of experience bungle are trying to do we genuinely don't care about nerfs to standing in a cave and zoning out for 8 hours or you not being able to repeat a mission to get an obscene amount of materials that will carry you to the highest level quick. This game has the foundation to be insane and is being fixed daily, they are addressing real issues.

                          • I don't disagree with the shard adjustment on Bungie's behalf but you're right, it is a bit pointless now doing the missions. I did a couple today just for the hell of it and didn't see the point to it. They could always make it harder (it's pretty easy, I can run through it alone with a little patience) and reward a weapon or one ascendant material, similar to the daily, or they could make it to where for every three you can obtain one ascendant material, something, anything, would be better than what it is currently.

                          • Why does everyone wan't to be max leveled in 3 weeks. The game hasn't been out for a month yet. Leveling up was intended to be a long and hard process with a mixture of luck. Aside from the retarded Cryptidiot. Farming the caves and the queens items for RARE items was broken.

                            • I have lurked this post for a few days to see if Bungie responded. 2200+ replies over three days... You think they'd realize there has to be a middle ground from their standpoint and what players were doing an they should find it. I need shards too, though I haven't been able to play in a couple days. This would have been a great incentive for me to play had I known I could do this. Everybody makes mistakes and I feel that this is one. Hopefully it's rectified in the future.
