Getting weaker as light level increases- seriously???

Dear Bungie- As a mostly solo player I do NOT enjoy being forced to run maxed modifiers in master or doing grandmaster severely underleveled in every activity just to maybe get rewards that aren’t instantly deleted. I just wasted 40+ minutes in Battlefield Oracle where my matchmade fireteam did fine but had the audacity to die to the 10 million champions permanently spawning and ZERO revives because the timer expired. Seriously? What are you thinking? I don’t want to be weaker as I progress. I don’t want every activity to be so stacked against me where I NEVER feel any power from my progression. I had more fun at 200 light than I do now. Every activity is a slog. Every activity is such a grind and one mistake gets you zero. Absolutely ridiculous.

  • You know, you can customize the modifiers to make the activities laughably easy?

    • The problem is how matchmaking sets power level. The higher difficulties shouldn't be higher light levels, they should be only be extra mods.

      • Bungie: Streamers have said otherwise, they matter more due to the free advertising.

      • Yes matchmaking modifiers are a crap shoot and something need to be improved there 100%. On the other hand, I saw you’re running Warlock with starfire protocol, which is cool but I found it lacking in higher tier. Dmg output is there but it lacks survivability. I haven’t played with it much but I’m sure there’s a way to compensate for that and make your build more enjoyable.

I over level GM activities now because of the bonus we have this week and still get A grade rewards. I'm 427 and set up activities to have 420 enemies to get the best rewards. Do you own the seasonal rewards pass or are you free to play? What modifiers are you using and what light level are you, Use all the mods that don't increase enemy level then add a couple that do. Use featured and new gear for maximum score multipliers. Every 20 light levels the score multipliers change, it's a bit harder a 300 then gets easier as you get closer to 320. Then again, you have to be a bit underleveled then gets easier until 340... so on and so forth.
