Are powerful rewards still a problem for anyone else?

So, here's my deal along with some friends I play with. Before this season and last update on Tuesday, Powerful engrams/rewards like daily's, weekly, strikes, daily missions and Flashpoints were dropping at about +2 or +3 above your power. Petra would drop a little higher, Ada-1 dropped higher, and so did NF. But now, EVERYTHING is dropping at +1 or 0 for me. Primes and exotics are the only ones to drop at about +5 to +7. I thought they said this was fixed in the patch notes or did I miss something. Thank god we have new pinnacle weapon bounties and Thorn now, because raids and milestones are pointless. Someone on a FB group said that your allegiance decision will effect a lot of things. One is, If you pick Drifter, your Vanguard power engrams will drop lower but your gambit stuff will drop higher. But I know this is a lie because I'm Drifter on my Hunter and Vanguard on my Warlock and it's still dropping shit power increases on both. Am I the only one?

    I don't believe they have fixed it yet. They are still working on it at to my understanding. I've just been skipping the stuff like daily heroics and strikes and only doing raids and dreaming city, whatever stuff drops higher gear. They said there is a cap that is supposed to begin at 690 but it's activa ting at 650 instead. I think they are still trying to fix it. Luckily, there is only one thing where the new level cap is necessary, the reckoning. I've been able to.complete them at 10 levels lower than recommended though and it hasn't been too much of an issue leveling slow. Otherwise, I honestly don't care about power progression. I'm just letting it happen as it does because even if I can't do tier 3 on day 1, it's not like I can't do it later. Literally the only thing that makes me mad about leveling, is when it's impossible to attempt a blind raid run on launch day when leveling rng screws me. Other than that, not really a big deal or something i chase. There isn't much of a reason to reach max on that number, just for the sake of it. I know it's important to a lot of people for some reason, but I just can't let that be the reason I play the game.
