Why Are You Forcing us to Play Trials for Solstice?

[Bingus]

Trials has nothing to do with Solstice of Heros, nor does Solstice of Heros have anything to do with pvp at all.
I understand the need for "challenging" challenges, but going up against cheats and Trials marathoners is just unfair.

Now I know that asking you to make an anticheat is waaayyyyyy too hard, so please just never include Trials in any PUBLIC EVENT again. :)

And for anyone who says that I am wrong, I am not.

This is like asking a casual CoD Zombies speed runner in to play SnD at the highest level.
They would get ♥♥♥♥ on because they lack the play style and game knowledge.

Forcing us to play Trials is also unfair because of PvP Pinnacles: Revoker, Recluse, Mountain Top, Lunas Howl, etc.
I am willing to bet that a new light player will not have any of those, and they will probably be picked last due to the sweaty nature of Trials!

So please, for the sake of the community, fix pvp and Trials, and make them a balanced playing ground before making them a requirement in ANY public event!

because bungie wants to try and bring back trials from the dead. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/662784093301506048/741489047243063316/unknown.png only 10K UNIQUE players touched trials last weekend. Bungie thinks by making it mandatory they can bring relevancy to a DEAD game mode. Which in the end will just frustrate players.

Because Bungie doesn't care about their playerbases time.

Well that's stupid and shortsighted.

Its a new major gamemode in the game. Population for new major game mode goes down. Give incentive to play new major game mode. Don't know what you're expecting here, and really don't know what you mean by "it has nothing to do with solstice". What does then? Only things you personally want to do? Crucible and gambit objectives were in previous solstice of heroes, as well as objectives only a small portion may do, such as doing Shattered Throne with two or less players, or doing the prestige leviathan raid. Don't really see how this is any different. And hey, especially at the start, a lot more people will be doing Trials so there will be a much lower concentration of "cheats and Trials marathoners".

To be honest it's kind of funny that Bungie would put up such a big wall in front of eververse. Like what kind of dumbass point or goal are they trying to prove/accomplish?

A) veterans already not considering getting them because of last year's stunt the solstice armor definitely not going to waste their time to be able to waste their money.

B) the people most likely to throw silver at the game because they don't have time or patience to grind bright dust aren't going to have the time or patience to do trials.

Maybe they'll surprise everyone with anti cheat and freelance matchmaking otherwise why wall off eververse like this.

I don't care enough for a skin for my boots to WIN 7 trial matches, now COMPLTE 7 trial matches, I think I could manage that without considering jumping out a window.
it's like the Triumphs for the Trophy Hall, "complete crucible matches wearing Calus themed armor and weapons" thats nice because if we loose I couldn't care less.

I'm not bothering either because I've been stung twice by this grind .

Last 2 years the armour was rendered obselete 2 weeks after earning it .

I know they say it will be relevant for the next year , when it will be sunset , but at this point I just dont care .

^this

I was wondering where the current event is going on because I found nothing. Now I know why.

[Typhord]

trials requirement is for magnificent (masterworked) armor with white glows. You don't need to upgrade your armor to magnificent set to buy ornaments with elemental glows from eververse, majestic set (legendary set that you can get easily with enough grind in the event) will be enough. I don't think that majority of players wants masterworked armor much more than universal ornaments

[SpasticBiscuit]

well in all honesty i dont really like the look of the leg pieces anyway so im happy i dont have to worry about that.

Well that's stupid and shortsighted.

And why? It is required, so why is it stupid and shortsighted to not play it at all if you don´t like PvP/trials?

[Kay]

The Trial objective on the boot is to MASTERWORK the boot. Already told myself that I won't be masterworking it since I do not have a team for trials and I'm more on the PVE side of destiny 2. Only thing you will be missing for not doing it is the brighter glow on the boots. That I could careless.

well you could just play get the armour and not do the trials part like that is an option dont pretend it isnt

Solstice is a solid skip for me just because of the PVP parts and glow cost.
So sick of Bungo trying to get people into their failed PVP modes.
