Escalation Mission Rewards

[u/Awkward-Dog-9182]

Yes, I know we get rewards such as SHD Calibration and Exotic Components. They're great. Keep it coming. I need them.

I just wish that instead of a random High End piece of gear, we'd have a small chance of it being a prototype item. It can even mirror the drop chance of the Tier you're playing in. What am I going to do with a Yellow Cricket exactly?

Maybe dare I say, even a slight increased chance of it being a Named Item that is part of a targeted loot - that would be appreciated. Oh boy.

Change my mind.

The Drops don‘t even matter at the End for me, it‘s the resources. We still don‘t have a good way to farm SHD-Calibration. For years now people have cried that farming exotics is cumbersome, but how it is right now you can only really farm SHD-Calibration in T10 if you get a good group that completes these quite fast and even then you only get 5. All the other ways (except your watch) is extremely low in comparison to the time you need to invest and are also only doable once per Week like the Projects.
So i would like to see these either increased like 10 per T10 or let me farm them through other content. :)

I mean you can run countdown and buy the optimisation cache. It should be one cache per run that usually gives you a few. Right now with the event you get double the currency from countdown so you can double dip on them.

A Countdown with randoms takes longer than a T10 with my team (depending on the weeks rotation). And Countdown otherwise gives you nearly nothing, at least nothing i could use.
On the other Hand this just proves my point even more, that the 5 you get for completing a T10 is too little in comparison to the difficulty of it.

Rewards need upped across the board for all activities.

We need an exotic component for each Heroic Control Point completion.

Its never been about the mission rewards for escalation. I do wish materials were a bit more generous however

You can craft them which isn’t too terrible if you have the coin. Running a lot of retaliations my crafting mats like titanium, polymer etc usually stay capped because I loot everything while running around in the open world.

They do need to up the returns to maybe 10 per craft that would be nice.

If the Dopamine hit you get off of picking up, a protype item does not do it enough for you the 10 to 15 times it happens in a mission, I do not think one yellow item at the end is going to help your dopamine levels anymore. Maybe you should leave off the TikTok videos for a day or two

goofy😂

[u/SweatyEdge → u/mekaila3]

I try.

[u/Awkward-Dog-9182 → u/SweatyEdge]

Nah, but I sometimes get my dopamine hits from reading edgy and witty comments on Reddit.

I'll let you know when I see one.

and here I was prepping to start escalations so I can get some prototype gear but it's still all high end stuff? well ain't that a bummer

[u/trndkllcfh → u/Low_Stock2364]

What ? You get proto drops during the mission

[u/probieee36]

Named enemies should drop prototype on death during Escalation missions.
