As Destiny 2 prepares for The Final Shape expansion, concerns about the game's activity economy and vendor reputation systems have surfaced among the player base. Guardians are urging for significant changes to address these issues before the highly anticipated expansion arrives.

Issue at Hand
The problem centers around the high cost of focusing Legendary Engrams for rewards at NPC vendors. Notably, the grind for Adept Nightfall weapons requires extensive completion of Grandmaster Nightfalls, presenting a significant hurdle for players. The lengthy rank-up process at vendors, particularly ranks 10 through 16, adds to the frustration, impacting players aiming for Iron Banner rewards through multiple rank resets in a season.
Rethinking the Activity Economy
To address the imbalance where acquiring Exotic Engrams is easier than vendor rank-up rewards, players propose extending the positive changes seen with the Gunsmith vendor to other vendors. This could involve creating additional pathways for earning vendor reputation or reducing the cost of focusing Engrams.
Guardians hope Bungie takes heed of these concerns, ensuring a streamlined and enjoyable experience as Destiny 2 transitions into The Final Shape era. With the imminent removal of Legendary Shards and the potential for a shift from Seasons to Episodes, players anticipate a comprehensive activity economy overhaul to enhance overall gameplay. The community remains optimistic that Bungie will implement these changes before The Final Shape expansion, paving the way for a seamless transition into the next era of Destiny 2.
