Why not bring back Crafting (Tier 1)?
With Tier 5 weapons existing now, why not bring back crafting for everything? Crafted weapons are inferior now, effectively being Tier 1s, but they would give casual players something worthwhile to grind for.
Personally, I have no desire to play Destiny in its current state. It is not possible for me to get my power/rank high enough to get tier 5 drops before Renegades, only to have all my progress reset back to 200. But, if I could grind red borders to unlock crafting for the new weapons, that would value my time enough to be worth playing.
Edit: Yeah, should be “Tier 2”, but same concept.
Edit2: Also, by “casual”, I just mean someone who can’t invest 80+ hours to get to max light, but otherwise might be skilled at the game. I have no problem grinding Grandmasters, raids, or Trials, just can’t feasibly invest the time to get up to Tier 4/5 drops every season.

Tier 5 are for the flex at the Tower. To a few exceptions maybe. When you see how bullet sponge even red bars are in high difficulty content, a few enhanced perks and barrel is not going to turn the tied compared to a tier 2 or tier 3 god roll. I plan on just playing the game the way I used to, level, and if tier 5 comes my way good. I already have a couple tier 4 and they sleep in the vault because they don’t work as well as a lower tier with my build. Bungie created a system, albeit not perfect, where people with endless time on their hands can grind forever almost and be rewarded with coveted gear. But you won’t need it to engage in end game that’s for sure.
