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

  • They especially screw up the communication part. If they had been upfront that Light level would impact scoring and that reaching 550 would give you an edge people would have felt less taken aback by the news. But for people in the 300-400 grinding 100 level and scoring in the top 10% is gonna require a lot of investment. Thats the frustrating part I guess. At the same time, remember it’s just for the helmet, everyone else still gets good loot.
