Call to Arms Event Feels Punishing Instead of Engaging

The return of the Call to Arms event had a lot of potential to bring excitement back into Destiny 2, but the current scoring system feels more punishing than engaging. Instead of pulling players in, it’s having the opposite effect — shutting them down. The way progress is tracked seems to favor high-skill PvP players while leaving casual and mid-level Guardians feeling left out. Many players are investing time and effort but seeing very little progress, which quickly drains the motivation to keep playing. For PvE players, the disconnect feels even greater. The event doesn’t seem to value their usual style of play, which goes against the spirit of Destiny being a shared world where all activities and playstyles matter. Right now, Call to Arms feels more like a divider than a community event. It should be something that unites all Guardians — PvP and PvE alike — but the current scoring and structure are discouraging the majority of players instead of celebrating their participation. Bungie has always been at its best when events bring the community together. Hopefully, Call to Arms can be reworked in that same spirit so that every Guardian, no matter how they play, feels included and rewarded.a

  • Everything on the reward track is easily unlockable by participating. Almost all the call to arms marked activities give 2 or more event weapons, there's a daily chest, and the usual challenges for event XP. I think you just want the Helmet for just participating. It's for hard-core/higher skilled players. It's a competition trophy.
