I just returned to the game a couple weeks ago or so, whenever the catch up chest was available. Honestly, the chest and the changes, like removing score penalties for using old gear, were the only reason I came back. I'm wearing all new armor except getaway artist (it's not "featured" pfft). I'm using third Iteration but the other weapons are pre-EoF (because A - there's almost nothing worth using, and B - farming for weapons feels impossible now without engram focusing). Is using old gear the reason I'm getting such a low score? The map I'm playing is conflux. I killed everything, didn't die, killed all champions, got the time bonus and even the side objective, yet I still got barely any score and a dang tier 1 "reward." I'm currently 364 and rank 7, tier 1's should not be dropping from the "reward" chest at all!
I even had banes on and shocker, the score forecast shows A/silver IV and I'm playing on master difficulty. Is this some kind of bug? Or were the BS new gear score penalties not actually removed from the game yet? Even if they weren't, it shouldn't destroy my score this bad. Or is this some kind of bug? This is extremely frustrating. What am I doing wrong? What else determines my score beyond killing everything in sight, not letting any Vex sacrifice in the confluxes, and not dying!?
