Am I Missing Something About Upgrading the Bunkers and Getting the Seventh Seraph Weapons?

Here's my first impression. So, you do the new bounties, Seraph Tower event, legendary Lost Sectors and reach level 2 for some bunker for a specific upgrade to acquire Warmind Bits, that allow you to purchase new upgrades for the bunkers and progress towards actually being able to start grinding for the new Seventh Seraph Weapons. You do this repeatedly? If I'm not missing anything else about this, then this is looking like an awfully big grind to give people at the very start of the season just to get players some of the new weapons (which there aren't that many). Black Armory Forge-unlocking vibes, except immediately. And the Seraph Tower events aren't just easy enough where you can do it with randoms or two people. They have to be able to pay attention, utilize their radar and actually have a means to do some decent ad clear, which some people do better than others. You tend to lose about half of the activities right now just because someone misses an enemy repeatedly. And the rewards for completing the activity is apparently just 2-6 Warmind Bits and some seasonal armor with the occasional seasonal mod, which doesn't seem to do anything without a Seventh Seraph weapon, which is a long grind just to get. Basically the event itself is pretty unrewarding. It's just a place to kill a bunch of enemies with a somewhat-tough objective for the most part. Besides that though, legendary engrams have become pretty appealing after the update. New weapons and new armor. All armor also has a chance to roll in the 60s now (finally, I swear it didn't happen before). And you're probably noticing that you're getting a lot of new weapons and weapons added to the engrams last season right now, right? Well from the looks of it, legendary Forsaken weapons have been REMOVED from the world-drop legendary engram loot pool. I believe you can still get some of those weapons to drop from Black Armory research frames as augmented weapons (extra trait option), but the sources for getting something like Smuggler's Word or Misfit have become pretty limited after the update. The only problem with this is that some players would rather do anything else to grind for legendary engrams than constantly grind Seraph Tower repeatedly for a lot of hours or days just for the main quest. In my opinion, the world drop changes are pretty nice because there is plenty of new things to get from it, even a fusion rifle for once. The Seraph Tower event is interesting and fun to an extent, but the rewards could use a little more work. Once again, this is my first impression. Next week I could have different feelings about this.

    Completing weekly challenges gives you the blue tokens. Shax. Each day you have to do normal bunker. Triumphs wearing a full set gives about 500 You want to get raspy to level 3 to buy frames. Hard Lost Sectors and Edz event give completion to weekly bounty. You need to do each 3ish times with a blue key
