Trials (and most everything else) is very unrewarding
For the first time in 10 years, I really am not enjoying the game. The entire experience is unrewarding.
Tier 1 helmet. Tier 1 machine gun. Lighthouse with a 3 win streak. So not worth the hot garbage of Trials. At least I used to get an Adept. I even pushed my guardian rank to 6 thinking it would help.
Big pile of Nope.
May as well go back to Flawless cards if that’s how it’s going to be. At least then my expectations would be kept in check.
Got the weapons once. Got the armor set. Think I’m good. Have fun chasing Tier One my fellow guardians.

1 ReplyIncreased time to complete an event provides an increased quantity of rewards, but do nothing to increase the quality of rewards. Doing a half hour Onslaught and getting a bunch of Tier 1 and Tier 2 gear doesn't feel great, even if it's a very high [b]quantity[/b] of low Tier gear, the low [b]quality[/b] still feels like a bummer. Longer runs shouldn't just provide improved quantity of loot, but it should at least provide slightly improved quality. We're not just looking for general loot, we're not just looking for light levels, we're looking for actual upgrades. I'm fine with Guardian Ranks and Light Levels providing a boost to higher Tiers, I think that makes sense, but there should also be some guarantees at lower levels that we're not wasting our time in these events. I don't do Trials, but if you get to the end of Trials, you should be rewarded with something better than two tokens and a Tier 2, regardless of Guardian Rank or Light Level.
