It's really demoralizing to get chest pieces all the time while being 5 lower than the pinnacle cap

Best would be they just get rid of the 10 point bump each season and just do this once a year. Running -blam!- you are bored of to get to power level to run interesting stuff sucks. Especially without the pinnacle protection. With that said save your gear in your seasons tab from previous seasons and use it to min max holes. You should only really get stuck on a number ending in 9.
