I'm not usually very critical of Bungie, but this is a pathetic lie.
Just reading the update news and noticed this... [b] "We noticed that players felt Lost Sectors were useful, but disliked the fact that they couldn’t enjoy them with a fireteam, so we moved the faction tokens from the destructible items to the chest at the end of the activity. The destructibles will still be featured as a daily milestone and are still available to help your fireteam clear out the Lost Sector."
[/b]
This is a sad ass lie period. They didn't like the fact that during the last faction rally, people simply destroyed the items for tokens and farmed to the max number of packages without having to mind numbingly complete the useless sectors every time.
If they wanna make this change to try and keep people playing longer, that's what should be said, not this sad ass lie about wanting to do sectors with a fireteam. Like whose ass did they even pull that out of. Not even a good lie for christs sake. smh. I'm sure I'm like many people who wont even bother to touch this faction crap after the first one anyway but damn Bungie, grow some -blam!-ing balls and tell the truth...

The main problem with shifting the rewards over to the chest is the chest lockout mechanism. You cannot loot a single lost sector chest more than 3x in a set amount of time. There's a glitch in Fireteams where you can loot a lost sector chest without ever having to complete the lost sector. To do the method it takes about 30 seconds. Abusing this method you'll get locked out of loot around the 3rd or 4th attempt. Lost Sectors aren't worth doing unless you're catching up on a soft cap, or you're at 305. This is the point where you're hunting blues to infuse into your legendaries. (since blues will drop the same power as legendaries after 276+; it just stops being worth teleporting to the tower every time to maybe be able to infuse a helmet) The problem was the tokens weren't awarded for time investment. Why am I getting significantly less tokens for doing a prestige nightfall or raid than I would doing any other non-strike content? It would make far more sense to add faction tokens as a random mob drop.
