Somehow, I did it the right way, but I said I would call out major issues... here's one.
450 chase is a bust outside of Keplar and normal crucible.
Meaning when you hit 450... I'm halfway there, but I did the research...
Everything ISN'T Tier 5.
You need PRIMES to get Tier 5s.
And anyone on the chase knows how ****in' inconsistent those drops are.
This is the solution... & it might not be applicable to me, it obviously isn't right now:
[b]At 450 the Prime drop rates need to go way up. 50%?[/b]
Here's some tips/things I learned in the meantime.
1. If you get a Tier 5 drop with a good/great roll... keep it until you get your better replacement.
Because in many loot pools it's not realistically farm'able.
2. Save your conquests, or at least the last 2... I made this error and did them all. I don't regret it though... because I got lucky, the loot wasn't borderline I have it all. To that point... be mindful of those drops... I wouldn't trash them unless they're absolute trash... because of the hidden luck stat and the new gear boons... 2% on great probably matches a better rolled Tier 4.
3. I would not try to target farm anything at Tier 5 in loot pools that require Prime drops. You're literally playing the lottery at astronomical odds.
Because 1st you need a Prime, which can take hrs.
Then you need the weapon or slot you want.
Then you need the roll, archetype, and stats you want.
That compounding probability, those escalating odds are impossible to farm realistically.
So, DON'T do it!

They've removed other sources of endgame gear. I don't know why they do this then leave one option. It is just bad design.

Basically, the game is a complete 💩 show. No wonder so many people are going back to Destiny. Yes, Destiny is a grind, but it feels much more rewarding. A couple of friends got me to join them for a session, and it was fun. The 30fps and 65 fov take a bit of getting used to, again having not played Destiny since D2 dropped. Bungie could be well served doing a remastered of Destiny or let another studio take it on.

Surely the simplest answer is to make activity reward a prime full stop.? Limit it to 1 or 2 daily by all means, but take the bs rng out of it.

At 450 the ONLY place you can farm Tier 5 gear is crucible. Getting a B+ score in crucible rewards Tier 5 gear. Good for getting certain weapons and if you want crucible armor. Everything else is RNG outside of the 2 weekly missions that drop 300 power Tier 5. If you are on the hunt for ops gear and pinnacle gear. GOOD LUCK

7 RepliesThere is nothing you need to be 450 for right now. When there is...itll be easier to get there. Way easier. It exists now for people who have literally no life, nothing to do and no intention of existing in the real world.
