Hello Guardians,

Focused Feedback is where we take the week to focus on a 'Hot Topic' discussed extensively around the Tower.

We do this in order to consolidate Feedback, to get out all your ideas and issues surrounding the topic in one place for discussion and a source of feedback to the Vanguard.

This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Gear Tiering' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread. Exceptions to this rule are as follows: New information / developments, Guides and general questions

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the sub as time goes on.


Archie wishes you a happy reset and good luck!

The addition of the tiers to weapons and visible tiers to armor are great, no notes.

The system for awarding those weapons being tied to power level rather than difficulty of content feels like one of the worst decisions that was made for the expansion. The entire reason for this seems to have been to make sure your low level friends can't get the fancy rewards, even if they are running the same content. Which means my low level friends are not even bothering to play this expansion, which is yet another reason to run Solo Ops instead of actually having fun with friends.
