The rewards are just delivering zero dopamine when I know the devs are making most everything suck compared to the new systems and rewards in the next patch, especially armor.
Everything armor is going down the drain to create a new grind for the new system. All time invested goes in the trash because their live service wants continually escalating power rewards.
set bonuses, more slots, 200 points per stat with new bonuses past 100, and gear tiers
Just all feels like a waste to grind for rewards that will go directly in the trash. And the grind systems in the story have gotten steadily more tedious. If the grinds weren't so heavy handed, I might still do a bit but the grind/reward ratio is just not motivating right now.

Weapons are still worth grinding. Bungie has stated that the weapons we’re getting now are around a tier 3. Your weapons aren’t going to be useless overnight. The real difference between tier is minor boosts to stats (like the stat bump Adepts get when fully masterworked). Just don’t grind armor. The new event has 0 new armor for that reason. Collect the designs for dresstiny, and that’s about it.
