Leveling For Loot MAKES NO SENSE

How am I supposed to convince veteran players to get back on the game when it takes 15+ hours to get loot as good as what they already have? And it takes another 15 hours to unlock better loot? This is a mind boggingly stupid game design for a looter shooter-style game. The game should reward SKILL not TIME. If my friends are good enough to go Flawless or complete a Raid, actually reward them! Why is the guy who played Lost Sectors for 30 hours rewarded more? This entire level / loot system makes no sense. Sincerely, Someone who wants to play the game with friends who have lives outside of gaming

  • Not to mention if you actually do the mind numbing grind to 450 like some of us did You are stuck doing the same mind numbing grind for a RNG chance at Tier 5 gear unless you want to play crucible, which rewards Tier 5 with just a B+ score. Crucible weapons are worth it, but the crucible armor is worthless to me. I need to farm Techsec armor and Bushido armor which are only guaranteed to be Tier 4 rewards with an A score. We get 2 weekly missions that drop a 300 power Tier 5 each and then the Mythic Time Latch missions have the potential to drop Tier 5, but don't always, so another RNG stick it in the rear chance. The we have the limited availability Sieve activity that is here for like 30 minutes every couple hours so you MIGHT get 4 Tier 5 drops. I was actually enjoying the grind as it was good for keeping my mind distracted and was under the assumption that once 450 everything was Tier 5. FALSE. The juice definitely wasn't worth the squeeze on this one and now I have a hard time even playing because what I'm getting in rewards is worse than what I already have just from leveling. Here is the X post I made on the subject. https://x.com/torch327/status/1957894158221246879
