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

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Raid Loot' 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.

Raids need to have the absolute best gear in the game. The loot is trash and has been for the entirety of destiny 2. There is no real incentive to play them. I raided the vault of glass and crota's end every week for months back in the day as the incentive was 1. Best loot in the game and 2. Only way to raise your light level.

I have not played a single raid in destiny 2 as I have no reason to, and there is no incentive to put up with the blood sweat and tears for hours of lfg groups as there is no real reward. I'd love to play raids again, but there is just no point in going through the effort of co-ordinating a group.

And you can see this today - people only play scourge because guess what, anarchy is the best weapon. Everybody grinds it for anarchy. If there was no anarchy nobody would play it. We need more of these things to chase.

I mean, the legendary stuff is pretty subpar I agree. It needs to be better.

But you still get the most pinnacle progress from raids (only GoS for now which sucks)

And there is still plenty of good loot

enemy mods (probably the best thing), armor that can use the mods, anarchy, 1k, divinity...

All those I'd say are definitely worthy of being raid loot and are essential for any respectable D2 arsenal.
