Bungie revealed a lot of information in theThis Week at Bungiefor Jan. 20 regarding what is coming to the game when The Witch Queen expansion finally releases. Besides the announcement of the release date for this expansion’s Raid, the biggest news is the list of changes that are being made. Here are all of the changes coming to the economy in Destiny 2: The Witch Queen.
Changes to rare rewards
The most requested and largest change coming to the economy with The Witch Queen is thatrare blue rewards will stop dropping from playlist activities(Crucible, Strikes, Gambit) once players have reached the soft power-level cap. Instead, players above the soft cap of 1500 power will see an increased drop rate of legendary rewards or legendary shards. However,blue armor and weapons will continue to drop from enemies and chestswhile playing.
Bungie hopes that this will help players manage their inventories and keep them from having to constantly clean out their postmaster of useless blue rewards. They also mentioned that they are currently working on the rarity of items and where blue gear fits into the game. They said that these changes won’t be seen for at least a few seasons, but know that they are looking at it behind the scenes.
