Bring Back Strange Coins in Playlist Activities

I haven't jumped into dares for anything since you remove strange coin drops in strikes, gambit, and the crucible. There's no currency incentive to grab bounties, jump in and grab some dares loot. If you start giving the strange coin economy some life again Dares will jump back guaranteed giving some more stuff for us guardians to do.

    • Are you insane and let you buy stuff from Xur, without the obligatory grind in Dares of eternity? Who do you think Bungie are, generous?

        I think rather than adding more items into the loot stream for playlist activities just add strange coins to Xur bounties. +2 strange coins for dailies +1 strange coins for repeatables Would mean you are only on average with just repeatables doing at least 1 run and able to grab a weekly or 2 daily starhorse bounties for your next run.

        • How about they add content for gambit, pvp and strikes before they do this? Noone plays these 4 and a half year old abandoned activities for fun other than for their weekly pinnacles anymore, so who cares. Only thing they've done to those playlists within the past 3 years was removing maps and strikes.

          • I would like to go finish grinding out that stuff. Bungie didn't mention that we would lose access to readily available strange coins when they said it'd be around for a year. Engaging with that content takes twice as long as before to get a comparable amount of loot. It's really a shame because I did want a Wastelander and the Other Half but oh well.

            • My brain saw this as “bring back strange Colins in all activities” Colin if your out there, we need you!

            • Woah, wait a second. You complain that Bungie removed a game mode/DLC specific currency as drop from the core playlists to shift more players into playing Dares of Eternity since the coins drop only there? Think again.

              • I don’t recall them explaining why this has happened so presume that it hasn’t been mentioned at all?. I agree. I see no reason to stop giving them out at the end of activities.

                    • They stopped giving spoils and I stopped playing Dares, which I actually used to enjoy! Why? Well whats the reward for playing it? True you still get Strange Coins in Dares but is it enough to make going back to Xur for rewards? Yeah - NO! There are simply WAY too many activities to grind with rewards for what we 'actually' want being WAY TO RARE! I live in the real world doing real work for real people with a real family. I'm not a streamer that lives 24/7 in Destiny and heck even they complain about the drop rates. Imagine what its like for the rest of us Bungo!!!

                      • Hopefully now that most of the major issues with WQ have at least been acknowledged, this will be put on the list of things to fix, reintroduce. Don't understand why they even left Dares in the game if they weren't going to continue to make it worth running/doing bounties for. Glad to see this at the top of the forum directory finally.

                        • I wish Bungie would have decided to give the dares of eternity weapons the 3.0 update. Many weapons don’t seem to be really worth farming in game right now unless it has that extra perk slot. This also includes dungeon, old raid, dreaming city, and moon weapons seem to now have little reason to try and farm them again.

                            The only reason I won't play dares is because i don't have any more coins. Imo, if they wanted to decrease the amount of stockpiling people were doing they needed to increase the cost of paraversal hauls and remove the strange coin cap, or at least increase it. Artifical currency caps and depreciated drop rates doesn't make for good content. It makes most things feel worse. At this point I'm just glad I got my rank 16 last season, still feels like I wasted $25 bucks on a dlc that would get mutilated 3 months in.
