PLEASE tell me that the Call to Arms Salt Mines solo ops mission alternates between Taken and Dread daily. The Dread version is the absolute worst. @destiny2team.bungie.net

OK, so a bit more checking of old screenshots vs current tells me that the target scores have been lowered, but actually getting A grades remains largely unrealistic without the pay-to-win rewards pass score boosters.

The change for the number of modifiers needed to reach an A-grade hasn't impacted me AT ALL. I'm 450 power, and the challenge multipliers are the same as before the LUP. In order to level, I'm clearly going to have to buy the Rewards pass. I really don't want to reward poor performance.

I basically have to upgrade to the full year, or pay 1000 silver to get the boost to the rewards multiplier I need in order to score an A-grade. In short - for those of us who only bought Edge of Fate, Ash and Iron is a pay-to-win update.

So one thing you haven't written about - maybe because you bought the full ultimate edition, so you have the Rewards pass unlocked - is that one of the multipliers at the bottom is a boost to the score multiplier for Portal activities. This makes getting an A grade virtually impossible

Also bad, but something that was quickly fixed was the original pinnacle grind from Shadowkeep, where pinnacles dropped at +1, and getting to the maximum base power would have required 80 drops, with perfect RNG, which is roughly what you need to get from 400 to 450

A worse one for me was getting to 320 in Taken King. I never actually managed it - and not for a lack of trying - because the game refused to give me a 320 class item. Forever 29 was solved for solo players thanks to Iron Banner.

there might be another emergency video incoming shortly...

I'm gonna need to see a picture of @danfinity.gg in the Kitten cuddle puddle.

I'm more shocked that you've used a weapon that isn't a bow.

Please reconsider.

Ah, Florence. I remember being up in that bell tower, and a flashmob turned up in the square, and did a dance to "Let Me Entertain You".

Are we sure they didn't inadvertently reveal the cast of Secret Wars? Pretty sure that story was pretty much everyone you can think of

I hope your knitting survived

Apparently, it's progressing on Strand, rather than Stasis, so it's either a bad description, or a broken setting

Since when has IB had Quitter penalties?
February 18, 2025 at 6:39 PM
Does it recline?

It's great if you want the Strand weapons. I've had 8 from pinnacles, plus a few more from the extra chests. It's bloody awful if you are trying to power level. No Heavy at all, no Class Item pinnacle...
