The fun factor of the game starts to taper off as you get close to 400, and once you get to 400… you have to jack up the difficulty so high, in order to get higher LL gear, that it’s just not fun. You can’t chill and enjoy the game while slowly chipping away at the grind to 450. There’s a reason that I don’t do contest raids, I don’t enjoy being stomped on for hours on end. I understand that some do, and that’s perfectly fine, not me. But to make it so that you have to jack everything up to contest mode level just to progress your light level after 400, that’s absurd. The old system made more sense at this point than the current one. Anyway, just my two cents, I’m sure I’ll have some agree and I’m sure I’ll have some flame me. Just, if you’re going to flame me, set yourself aside and try to see more than one perspective. I understand that some people like the challenge, and I do too within reason, just not in almost EVERY aspect of the game. Thanks for taking the time to read the post.

Edited by PROCK7: 8/21/2025 12:25:51 AMWhen I was 320, I could do solo ops and get an A with +4-5 for an award. Now I’m at 347 and at A I’m seeing +3 only. I also hit 110 on the seasonal reward battle pass. I never hit that before hitting max light and going up +10-15. My point is I’ve done a similar amount of grind from previous seasons but I’m not at max power. That’s a bad system. And in less than 3 weeks the max goes to 550. Just insane how they did this.

it was fun before that?

Really? I think it sucks, and is incredibly boring.

It was the same for me at 400 had to put it to 440-450 just to get an A score. But you can put it to B+ and just over the half way mark and if you have at least 3:45 left on the clock and completing all the objectives it will always be an A score! If you go below 3:45 it will be B+. You will have to run locked loadouts, no starting ammo, no hud, brawn, a -20 bane modifier and a -10 counterfeit mod to get it to where u need it to be which will be 430 power. Try that out and let me know how it goes!

40 light under honestly isn’t that bad, so I don’t mind the difficulty, the issue is how LONG it takes. The fact that I have to complete [i]multiple[/i] activities to just ONE prime drop is the exact reason why I’ll be taking a break until Ash and Iron. This is ridiculous.

I have to admit,I’m playing content that I have no business playing at this difficulty level. Killing an enemy that then turns into another one or worse, stupid little screebs.lol The conquest on master was ridiculous for me solo.The game should’ve allowed me to use silencing shot finisher on myself.

But if you don’t that’s fine. Customize your activities to match how hard you want your stuff to be.
