This needs to be addressed in S2. I’m an average to below average player. I do not think I should be drowning in golds by any means. But I do the anomalous every chance I get, quite a few lockdowns at this point, and do my best in Cryo (granted with a very low exfil rate).
But that kind of time commitment should come with way more. I’m resigned to the fact I won’t full upgrade my factions. That’s for the elites and I’m ok with that! But man would it feel good to have a be able to complete a couple nodes done at this point.
I’m not sure the solution. I’m not a huge fan of a barter system (10 purples for a Gold). But it would be a possible solution. I also thought maybe every 10 VIP ranks gives a Gold salvage would reward time commitment.
Bungie please, throw us addicted plebs the dopamine hit a few gold salvages.
