All weapons need to be obtainable at tier 5 (they aren’t currently)

In the current EoF system, weapon tiers depend on player power and activity difficulty, with no way to upgrade weapons. This means that weapons from sources without difficulty modifiers are capped at tier 3, such as Crucible, Gambit, Iron Banner, Dares of Eternity, and Xur/Banshee weapons. This is NOT okay. ALL weapons need to be fully enhanceable to tier 5. If Bungie doesn’t have them drop from those activities, they need to implement an upgrade system (probably using a currency like Spoils of Conquest). Edit: To clarify sourcing, the TWID says the new gear only comes from Portal activities, which streamers have collaborated. “To get the best gear, you will need to face the hardest challenges, like Grandmaster and the new Ultimate difficulty, which you reach by adding different modifiers to the activities found in the Portal.” Note that this excludes raids, dungeons, or other difficult activities via the director. It has to be through the portal to drop tier 5 weapons (which I assume may rotate through those.)

  • I cannot see any justification for these changes for normal players, and it will only increase trade for paid carriers and top up streamers subscribers. Just think. Player A is really good at the game but because of real life, has only got to gold level at present. Player B, his clan mate, who is say, average but is able to play 24/7 has got to platinum level. Player A carries player B through a GM or goes flawless in trials. Player B gets way better loot than player A just because of rank level, although he has been carried. Now I know this happens anyway, but at least every player gets the same level of loot regardless of power level in the current system, and players who enjoy sherpering and helping others, will not be so willing until they themselves have got to max power.
