“In past Destiny<\/em> Seasons, only a narrow range of activities received updated rewards, leading to a narrow selection of activities worth playing,” the blog post reads, and with chases that were “not very deep either.” The few activities that did have worthwhile rewards were plagued by “shallow, unsatisfying grinds,” the studio acknowledges.<\/p>
As a way to kickstart a new chase, Bungie is adding quality “tiers” to weapons and armor. For weapons, the current Legendary rarity will be the baseline under this new system, with the max tier being close to an Adept weapon.<\/p>
Bungie hasn’t explained how this will work with armor, however. The closest parallel to the weapons system is Artifice Armor, which also drops from higher-tier activities and comes with an extra slot that grants three stat points to an attribute of choice. The blog post explicitly says this is coming to armor but fails to provide examples.<\/p>
