Some quests steps (e.g: Forsaken expansion's Ace of Spades quest involves killing 5 invading players in Gambit and 25 precision kills in Crucible) require players to participate in PvP activities that they would rather not engage in. Would it be possible to simply add a PvE option to any quest step that initially requires PvP? This would not take anything away from PvP players & would allow PvE-only players to complete a quest step that they would originally shun.

Or... just make it make sense.... The primary focus of the franchise has been fixing what was broken by D2 Vanilla — Great! Now’s the time to focus on the biggest problem that Destiny has always had, which is is how it delivers the narrative and STORY. Lumina: Crucible makes no sense to me. It’s a healing weapon, the opposite of Thorn. If anything it should all be based on feats of supporting your allies, which alot of it is — generating orbs. But getting Res’, using wells, tethers and banner shields would make more sense than.... Killing guardians Thorn: Crucible makes sense — because it hungers for Guardians light. Outbreak Prime: Crucible would not make any sense. Maybe Iron Banner. SIVA is a lore item connected to the Fallen, the Iron Lords and the EDZ. The mission was good though. Last Word: It’s understandable. It’s a PvP weapon. BUT, not really the WAY they did it. The quest was a lore dump, it should have been about the STORY and exploring the history behind Last Word and Thorn. THEN crucible makes sense AFTER you defeat the Hive weapon smiths, to get the Catalyst or something, actually Using the Last Word in it’s venue. Ace Of Spade: Again, it was a lore dump about Cayde and his mentality. Why am I killing Gambit invaders? Malfeasance: Gambit made perfect sense. Raid weapons: Crucible makes zero sense. Overall, the steps just need to be well though out. That’s all. A lot of it has instead been the equivalent of Open World fetch quests to just stretch out the time. In those cases, with stuff like, “calibrate the gun” — you should be able to choose whatever activity you want. As long as the gun is firing, the Gunsmith should be able to calibrate it. People should absolutely be able to go play Crucible (ANY mode), instead of, for example, standing around on Io waiting for a Cabal drill for 2 HOURS 🤦🏽♂️ 🤦🏽♂️ 🤦🏽♂️
