Since TTK came out Bungie has released strike specific gear obtainable from either
Vanguard Strikes (36) Playlist
Vanguard Heroic Strikes (41) Playlist
Or you can start the INDIVIDUAL strike at level 36 at the director
Now in addition they added The Undying Mind and The Dust Palace, both PS4 exclusive strikes from year one, I want three pieces of gear from The Dust Palace, the three Psion Flayer Mantle Cloaks. I've been grinding pretty hard for the past 3 days on the Vanguard Heroic Strikes (41) Playlist, so far nothing.
Now like I said you can also start the INDIVIDUAL strike at level 36 at the director or the map or whatever you like to call it, except theres one issue, since The Undying Mind and The Dust Palace are year one strikes and they start at level 20 on the director making it impossible to obtain the strike specific gear from those two strikes as you must be playing a level 36 or higher strike.
I don't know if other people think this is an issue but I personally think it is seeing as someone can start for example The Sunless Cell at level 36 from the director and have the chance of obtaining strike specific gear even being able to play that strike over and over again.
Anyone who wants any specific gear from The Undying Mind and The Dust Palace is forced into playing Vanguard Strikes (36) and Vanguard Heroic Strikes (41) with NO GUARANTEE of getting that strike and having to sift through them all until you get the one you want, and then comes the end with no reward and you continue to search through piles of other strikes that can be manually started at 36.
People are leaving the strike playlists as they "aren't getting the strike they want" this is an issue which must be looked at you cant bring year one strikes over and leave them at 20 on the director, thats like giving us a year two Gjallarhorn but it stays at 170 damage. Please leave feedback as I really want to know other peoples opinions.
