Anyone that defends rng over an exotic that only drops after the completion of a raid is stupid. Some people will never have the chance to even get the exotics because they cant even do a raid or finish it. I would make it so finishing the raid the first time is a guaranteed drop, doing the heroic version of the raid grants the catalyst guaranteed. Before you guys go, “whats the reason of doing the raid anymore????” To answer the question is really simple, doing raids should grant players a lot more unique and powerful mods that can be applied to armors and weapons. Its not that hard to also give players higher level loot in case they haven’t reached max light. Just like earning pinnacle weapons bungie should make raid only pinnacle weapons that only activate its perks during raids and pve activities. Whats that? You are asking for players to grind for pve stuff? What about pvp? How can we pvp weebs stay relevant on crucible? Pinnacle sniper is not good enough! Is it so hard for bungie to bring back trials? Give players weapons and armors that only work on pvp, give them something unique and worth the grind. The destiny community is full of ideas and the developers can easily pick whatever they want from the forums and shape the game however they want.
