In Y1 destiny everybody complained about how leveling up was not easy and how hard was it to gear up. In TTK they addressed this and now you complain that it should not be easy and that it should be hard. Make up your mind!!! If that was the case I'm a 100% sure you would still be creating this post saying that you don't have the time to grind so much and progression should have been easy. Bungie just can't win with some player base this game has. Anything they will do some of you will always make a post contradicting their changes. About the Fav weapons you mentioned. Not everyone cares about them and most are happy that we have new weapons to deal with. In Y1 we always depended on some weapon types to go through a modifier reducing the variety in our load out. That was boring and way to easy!!!!
