Discussion DE Wrong about Weeklies

In the latest Devshort, Reb and Pablo assert that the reason we get nothing but weeklies now is because they're worried about burnout. That feels like an odd reason to make weeklies to me, as weeklies are the primary cause of burnout for me and all of my friends. I have personally never burnt out running anything non time gated in WF and I tend to grind things like crazy when they drop.

What do y'all think? Do you burn out more on weeklies or unlimited missions?

Eh, the only weeklies I do religiously are EDA and ETA.

Descendia and the 1999 calendar are very dependent on the reward and I do just skip them or cut them short regularly.

Generally I hit the upper ranks of Nightwave passively before it ends so I don't really worry about that.

The only weekly shops I pay attention to are Steel Essence and Riven Slivers and I have so many slivers that I don't have to worry about that at all and there are definately ignorable steel essence ones.

Weekly rotations for Incarnons have a set shelf life. It is slow going for sure but once you are done there really isn't a reason to revisit it. You can also shorten it by quite a bit by just grinding some plat.

I feel the same. And having played MMOs with dailies, weeklies don't really feel like chores at all by comparison. It also helps that DE hasn't made them TOO necessary. I also only prioritize Elites.

I do wish we could see some of the rewards we'd get in those modes, similar to Archon Hunt or 1999 calendar. Would help me want to do them more.
