It really took a turn for the worst post Final Shape, especially this season. The complete removal of seasonal crafting was such an irrational, knee jerk reaction. No moderation whatsoever. All they had to do was make it so that only activity completion drops could be red borders. Make random drops enhanceable, no weekly freebie red borders, no red borders from focusing or vendor engram claiming. That’s it. Both sides appeased. Instead we have this awful tonic system where in act 2 we’re actually unlocking second act 1 weapon tonics instead of just getting tonics for the new weapons. We’re grinding materials again. 🤦‍♂️ The dungeon weapon chase STILL lacks meaningful agency. At least we got a chest that only one person can focus per run though. 🤦‍♂️ Festival of the lost is, I believe still the only event without a chance for double perk drops, and the activity didn’t change. Then we get annoying, punitive modifiers as a way to impose challenge.
