Yet your friends may get those upgrades even if you personally get items that you don't need anymore again. They may have just got upgrades and you got mats for upgrading gear further.
Pre-made group can clear it sick fast, yes, but there is a lot of us who has to PUG it. That shit can and will take hours upon hours with large chance it never gets completed 100%. I already shiver when I think that I need look up PUG for VoG soon

I agree, everyone has their personal preferences. As I said for me they are too stressful and grueling, WoW has a lot more ways and options to reduce the stress or relieve it in comparison. Personally I wouldn't want to go on a multi game grind in crucible or rumble either, that's just not fun for me and at most I can only handle one or two matches at a time.

23 for a primary I think. Dunno about the rest.
200 marks is the cap.

I've bought three pieces already off of New Monarchy. The cap on marks is 200
200 marks in the bank at any one time.
If you earn more than that your weekly 100 ticks down but you lose the marks. So it's best to spend them.

As of now, you can have anywhere between 10 and 25 and the raid will scale accordingly

Clearly you can not handle the awesome of 80's Sci-Fi movie lines.

It's good to largely focus on two things and have maybe a bit of the third. Depending on how often you use grenades you might not want discipline. Warlocks for example, especially sunbros, definitely want discipline and intelligence for grenade spam.

What's the easiest Queens mission?

I also think that is not a fair statement. There is plenty of skill and decision making involved in WoW raiding, it just does not heavily depend on reflexes like FPS.
Restoration. lol

I have 57 coins, but I'll only buy a weapon off Xur if it's an auto rifle.
I haven't been getting enough sleep because of this game, and now I feel like I'm on the verge of getting sick. (It's raining here today too, which doesn't help.)
I'm tempted to go home and just sleep right after work, but... then I'd miss out on the daily bounties.
Any good ones?

Watch it be unusable for your class.
You mean the queens wrath? Then Restoration on Earth it gives you is the easiest/shortest. You can always go back to orbit and search again for a different mission.

That's the bounty isn't it? I'm talking about the lv. 24 mission that yields the legendary. Or is there a 24 version of that too? Exited and re entered 7 times so far
I think your perspective is totally valid. I appreciate your thoughts on the aspects of the system that have failed you- especially in light of the of the quote above (your approach is like "keep the good reward methods that exist, plus add more/other/better chances"). I don't agree but it is certainly a mere matter of preference. From my perspective, the implementation of your changes would mean that I was done with the game right now, or at least very close, even though you're currently farther along than I am. I would have, and this is not any exaggeration, somewhere on the order of 3 times as much legendary/exotic gear, and more than enough light to be at 29, with far more of the "ideal slot" pieces filled than I have currently. Having gotten there substantially sooner than I will under the current system would not improve the game for me, while it would have for you. That's a fundamental difference and there's nothing wrong with either perspective.

Mhm, like you mention in the latter, my plans for Destiny raid are pugging it. There's no reason for a guild to do it together (Other than the achievement..but I don't really care about those). In WoW, doing it together with a group is well...you set a raiding schedule(Sometimes it can be like, Tuesday-Thursday, Friday-Sunday), you show up on those days, you work together to get materials for food and potions, flasks, you work out on strategies...it's a bonding experience. You work together on distributing the loot. That's something that missing in Destiny. Sure, you can do it with the same group of friends, for alot of people(I'm sure), raiding weekly isn't going to be a priority. So Pugging becomes the most effective way,and my thought process is 'Why am I going to pug this for a chance of loot?'.
It's the same for pugging in WoW-You do it for two reasons. One, for a chance of loot. Or two, to actually get the achievement for the raid which will give you leverage in joining a raiding guild and raiding weekly for guaranteed loot and meeting new people.
I feel if Bungie fleshes out the clan stuff, maybe adds erm, mounts(Ships and Sparrows) to achievements/accomplishments...it'd come along way for people to start organizing for it.

What if he offers Fate of All Fools this week? Or MIDA? I only have 17! How do I get six more?!
Weekly strikes.

well I believe the queen stuff is around till the 6th Oct(?)
so... prolly not till then
I am torn as to whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's not the hard mode, though, so I guess it's good?
Auto Rifle or Gjallahorn. I hear it's pretty amazing.
There are no exotic bounty requirements that I would hesitate to accomplish in exchange for that weaponFully upgraded the Hawkmoon. I love this thing!!
I would dismantle all my legendaries, my beloved Pocket Infinity, Gjallarhorn, and Thunderlord. I would reset my Ranks to zero and have to earn them back from -200 each. I would score 500 arc damage shots to the back of a Dreg's knee. I would allow myself to lose 300 crucible matches in a row.
RNGesus you know i have not asked you for much. this is my only request. Xur cannot aid me because he's forbidden to touch the materials in the "PS Exclusive" crate. The Cryptarch desires only my pain and my tears. You are my only hope.
i must have it.

Can't do Nightfall I'm only level 24
Can you do the heroic strike more than once and get the coins?

I'm a level 21 and lucked into Restoration last night--got to the dark zone and got steamrolled by a few Shanks with fire shields. All I had to fight it was a fire-laced sniper rifle...I couldn't even start to kill them and went to orbit feeling like a huge loser.
Wish there was some sort of way to bridge the gap between the queen missions and level 20. At this point they're just as impossible to me as the raids. is my best option to just keep grinding for high light gear? Sucks.
If you've exhausted all the set rewards, Cave Farm will very likely net you 6 in time if you put a few hours in...
If you can bring yourself to do it.

You're rewarded for each tier.
