So I'm playing crucible and playing competitive. I got paired up with people who were power level <250, at one point one guy was a level 3 with 200 power. Obviously my teams lost every match. And I like to consider myself decent, but me getting top in my team every match has never happened. This was happening for 6 consecutive matches. Apparently sticky grenades, you know, the ones that deal extra damage when stuck to person, even when stuck to somebody only takes their health down halfway. Not even enough to get their shield broken. Wtf crucible. To make matters worse I finally finished this week's crucible quest to get powerful gear. Apparently powerful gear means less than what you have because I just got a helmet and energy weapon that were both 300. My current power level is 301 with a helmet that is 302 and energy weapon that is 304. I'm so done, I'm furious. Fix this shit and give me the powerful gear I deserve. Otherwise I just wasted hours worth of time.

Edited by SL5DE: 10/5/2017 7:29:21 AMI don't mean to speak out of place, but chances are the gear you currently have has a Legendary Gear Mod on it. The 'Powerful' gear you just acquired should have a higher Base Power. Legendary Mods simply increase the gears overall power, not the base power. And apologies if I'm misunderstanding you here, but Power has no effect on gameplay in Crucible outside of the Iron Banner.
