They did......but you can still farm faster by doing less than 50.

I didn't keep track of ascendant alloys and shards.. and if the rewards are greater later.. but I think they are... you make me think that the 10 list should probably be 30.
-
Not at all. Rewards being greater later doesn't mean I want to blugeon my way through 10 more levels to get the same tier. Not if the previous levels are both easier and faster to get through. 20 / 30 would be as far as I'd go unless I'm havin the time of my life. It's simply faster and more efficient. It's a concept Bungie seems to let slip by when designing things. Their FOMO nature basically causes the need for us to be quicker and more efficient. So all they did was fatten up the earlier levels and still not incentivize someone like myself to go all the way to the end. So what's easier? 20/30 then go again? Or the long haul to 50?
-
oh I mean the danger is heightened in 30-50 but doesn't seem that much longer.. and its probably/should be more than double the drops from the previous 30.. and if you have a solid team why leave them.. you know its gonna go well.. but yes I guess if you don't enjoy the gameplay enough.. and the incentive isn't there.. thats why the 10 playlist should have a 30 for you.. and incentivize the final 20 for the player that has to join in progress from your drop.

It's not about it going well. It's about what's the incentive beyond a certain point. If I can get something faster and easier......I'm not going to waste time making life more difficult for myself. The shiny is rare and therefore not on my radar now. The weapons themselves is a different story. Bungie just made the rewards more numerous the higher you go. An given the majority of the time you're not going to get the double row of perks on a gun. There's no realistic justification to spend time getting to 50. If it's easier and faster.........no matter how numerous they make the rewards. No one in the rational mind will make things more difficult on themselves. TLDR: They buffed the rewards.......but left no incentive to go to 50.

Edited by eliteg: 4/24/2024 1:34:45 AMMy opinion is you are making the game unfun for yourself by looping like that.. over an hour.. if.. IF you do get more drops than me going through a 50.. it'll be minimal.. and I think your way is just taking the life out of the game for yourself. You should find out how much a 50 takes you now and how many rewards you get from 30-50.. before chaining yourself to that loop. FYI clearing a regular 50 is pretty not tough..
-
Looping like that doesn't pull the fun out of it. It maintains it because I'm still making progress for less trouble and still enjoying the game to a degree that doesn't start to get on my nerves. It's as I said somewhere else. Bungie increased the rewards but still made doing less waves more worth the time. I guess we can just agree to disagree I suppose. I'll take a crack at a 50 wave run just to satisfy my curiosity but honestly. Having a random shiny at 50 would have me in there more and sticking to it more.
-
fair enough.. hope to hear how the 50 goes... might remember to time my next one :) all for Bungie aligning rewards for different people's goals.. its tricky
-
So I took to the 50 wave on normal. Pleasantly surprised by the rewards. 2 shiny Hammerheads and various amounts of rewards for each 10 wave. Overall it's nice but I figured out the problem. It's a bit of an ongoing one with D2. It's the tediousness of it all.
-
Excellent > I never really tried builds before so that makes it less tedious for me.. if the rewards stay up.. its just about time commitment.. if you can give an hour.. the 50 is worth it imo.
-
Yeah I'm just not a fond fan of bullet sponges but the 50 is almost worth the effort.......Almost.

Edited by Althanash: 4/24/2024 1:49:55 AMYeah they made something fun and slightly challenging this time but dropped the ball with incentivising. Normally they do the opposite. Good incentives but boring content. I'll get back to you when I get the 50 done.
