Grinding feels like a waste with revamp coming

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.

    Listen if people want a Destiny 3....This is it. Throw everything in the trash and start over. That's what everyone's been asking for. Or.... Look at the patterns over the last 2 years.... [b]Weapons getting updated into the new system,[/b] (By far the most important part of the game...the weapons above all else) They've shown us time & time again that they can update existing weapons in our vaults & inventory over the new systems....(weapons becoming enhanceable) Examples: Into the light weapons....Igneous hammer, Cataphract, Riptide, Heliocentric.....All weapons that started out as just regular.....updated to become enhanceable when Final Shape & other events launched. (Worse case scenario: Beyond light only sunset weapons to a point. (so season 10 & 11 were still usable)) ____________________ Focus on the weapons. Get the Rite of the Nine weapons 100%. There is a good chance they could carry over to the new system because they are the newest. [b]Better to have weapons in your vault than not have them at all.[/b] Vault management 101. _________________________ As for armor. The new system will be better. As long as they make 100 resil mobilty & recovery the default (as it always has been for years) Removing these [b]Necessity[/b] dump stats can be such a huge W. And gaining ability damage, Weapon damage, super damage....Health on orb pickup...just on stats alone is a very solid improvement.... EVERY stat point mattering! On top of Set Bonuses being permanent artifact perks on our armor....That can open the doors for a lot of things. Bungie just has to deliver on the QoL. But the room for expansion is there. They just have to make good use of it. But what am i saying they can't possibly over-deliver amirite!???
