What's everyone's thought on the pathfinder system? specifically for the ritual playlist activties?

[Badger]

The Pale Heart pathfinder system is extremely good and easy to get done and I like it a lot, however I can't say the same about the ritual playlist one, it seem to be designed to force you to play activities you don't wanna play, there is always one, two or three nodes that requires you to specifically play Gambit to get done and it sucks.

Bungie claimed that the new system lets guardian play how they want, but the current system doesn't, you can't complete a path if you play only Vanguard playlist (the only playlist I enjoy farming)

I hate to admit this, but I played more Gambit games this last 2 weeks than I did during the entire Wish season, and I was miserable throughout the entire thing, hell I even quit games after I get my objective done.

Very easy fix to this is to not have objectives be tied to a playlist!!! it's extremely simple and they already have that implemented, just make ALL nodes be able to be completed in ANY playlist.

You can just make sure you have the most motes bank and win and then it goes to 100% instantly.

Bro ironically said "make sure you bank most motes" despite the fact that there are 3 other players in the match making sure they do the same, not to mention the enemy team trying their best to make sure you don't.

I'll tell you what I'm making sure of, I'm not touching this horrible anti-player system until Bungie fixes it.

I'm always top motes.

It's not hard, most peeps don't know the meaning of the word bank.

gambit 100 motes is not 100 motes.

it calculates a perentage of deposited motes instead.
that is dishonest
it woudl require 15-20 matahces to complete.

It counts banks, not motes. Each time you press the button.

You get extra points for sending a blocker.

Making the ideal way to finish it banking at 6 motes and sending a small blocker. You can do that quite a few times per matches, so you might need 6-7 matches total to finish it.

Or

You can just make sure you have the most motes bank and win and then it goes to 100% instantly.

that confirms it is not abut 100 motes banked

its ♥♥♥♥♥, whos bright idea was it to force people into modes they dont want? stuck on the end of one right now, the two nodes are gambit and crucible, the gambit one is kill hive, except it refuses to give me hive i need for it in the 5 ive played, which is 5 more matches of gambit than even the worst of humanity should be forced to play

the second is defeat guadiens with arc... well i dont pvp and have nothing for pvp, my only arc weapons are really only ARs... which is absolute garbage in pvp when hand canons and pulses are the meta and 2 tap you while you dump half a mag in someone

not to mention the try hards, cant get any progress when opponents just slide around a corner and quick scope you before your weapon can even fire

[Thror]

they should allow us to reroll pathfinder nodes w/ glimmer. thats all the ritual pathfinder needs.

[day]

If you dont want to do pvp dont do pvp nodes lmao

Honestly I would love that, or just make all nodes be completed in any ritual activities and make all the objectives be generic stuff like get kills w/ x type of weapons, or x elements, or x abilities, kill x majors...etc

That one is 100% bugged and that sucks, it should count the motes banked + giving a bonus for a blocker w/ large giving you the biggest bonus, it's absurd having to bank 50 times, the obj should be completeled in 1 or 2 games at most, not ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 7-8 games.

People also ignore the fact that people are now playing Gambit solely to complete their obj, I played many many games where nobody even bother to invade (me included), cause why would you invade if your obj is to bank motes? which also means that your chances of actually winning are minimal (idc about winning personally) but yeah, no invading meaning you're more likely to lose.

Anyway this system is terrible, if a system makes you play the game mode incorrectly to complete something, it's a terrible system.

You mean you don't like when Bungie purposefuly throttle objectives for no other reason than to throttle them?

Bugged pathfinder task, like Kill x enemies with solar ignitions, like i keep trigger ignition keep massive horde with it, still remain 0% when i switch to deadshot Solar Hunter, it move 20%? did they didnt know how to tell playerbase what to do?

Also ridiculous task like Kill x enemies in pvp with Jolt, Some task is not well described, They should let us reroll some task in pathfinder like 2x every reset, example u reroll gambit task, u get another gambit task.

I don't think they even tested this tbh, there is one task that asks you to make orbs of light and it's description it says "generate orbs of lights using supers or masterworked weapons".... masterworked weapons making orbs of weapons has not been a thing in 2 years.

I disagree, old system was better... much easier to farm bright dust.

I think it's pretty good, the only thing I don't like is the way it works against the activity streak bonus system. If I want to grind Vanguard rep, I want a 5 streak bonus on Vanguard. If I need to do a game of Gambit to finish my pathfinder. I have to either play that game and knock my streak down, or not finish the pathfinder.

I think the best solution would just be to get rid of the streak bonus and set each activity reward at the '5 streak' level.

This really does sum up the topic. It needs some work.

Legit question : does the Streak even exist anymore ?

The UI used to show it.

It doesn't anymore.
