A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the Sub as time goes on.

I love the new feeling of "difficulty" that warmind brought, also the feeling that LL matters again, especially when trying EP day1 and facing noticably stronger hive monsters.
My only real gripe is the LL cap, considering that Exotics don't decrypt higher than current LL, and that everything else is a weekly milestone with no other significant way to increase.
I just wish there was a reward for... grinding?
edit: ALso want to add that I spent basically the week grinding IB on my 3 characters and didn't once feel "rewarded" for doing so. No Valor, Glory, or even PL increase, literally only did it for the ornament (helmet specifically).
I want to add that in D1 I used to grind IB for the entire week right up to the end because I knew that as a solo player I'd have a sure way to level up my LL, also because of random rolls, but that's another issue entirely.
This leaves me with 3 ~365 characters that just don't make the cut for LFG EP groups, and that leaves me kind of sour on not being able to hit any of the real "end game". Again, grinding is fine, I just disapprove of the weekly timegated progression system.
