So, the Live update ruined the event.
Greens shouldn't be free, every loadout shouldn't get the same bonus... and we need things like the orby modifier.
The orby modifier in particular was the one mechanic... it's a great whammy, that was creating parity between PC and Console.
I can't map skate or an Eager cadence to a single input without a modded controller.
Orbys were a speed bump that evened the playing field.
The thresholds are all worse.
Just for the record I have all the rewards, my scores will hold.
The silver lining is:
The Portal is tuned fairly well for something like this in the future.
The only thing that was missing was incentivizing low band play.
If the event had something "too good" to pass up simply for participating it would have been good for everyone.
Every skill band.
This underwrites something I and many have been saying for years.
Destiny needs an overhaul of the early to mid-game.
This event exemplifies it.
If everyone was playing... it would have been better.
Casual and mid-tier band felt like there was nothing for them... tons of Renegades Loot, but that didn't hit... because they're vouchers.
The solution wasn't making score easier... the solution was better rewards for lower band participation.
@Bungie... Give everyone the helmet.
For your consideration, please and thank you 😇👍💠.
It was a good try, I appreciate the effort... next time.
