Destiny 2 players rage about reputation changes ahead of Festival of the Lost 2021 BungieDestiny 2 has been in a pretty positive spot recently, but fans are not happy at new reputation changes for bounties in Bungie\u2019s loot-shooter. Destiny 2 is about to kick off its Festival of the Lost event, but players are in no mood to celebrate after Bungie extended the grind to earn seasonal ornaments. These cosmetics are awarded to the Ascendancy rocket launcher, the ritual weapon in Season of the Lost. While the gun is fairly easy to earn, its new visual options now require players to not only reset their rank in either Vanguard, Crucible, or Gambit playlists \u2013 but then reach the rank of Legend, too. That essentially means spending a lot of time in a single mode to grind out a new paint job for your rocket launch \u2013 and players took to the Destiny 2 subreddit to express their discontent. Destiny 2 community angry about Ascendancy ornament quest The post, which now has over one thousand upvotes, has been growing as players chip in with their disappointment. Originally discussing the lack of reputation earned from turning in bounties at each of the playlist\u2019s respective vendors, some are wishing Bungie would revisit the prior strategy of having ornaments obtained by specific quests. Some of the Season of the Lost weekly challenges are even tied to earning these ornaments. While some commenters suggested that the quest is lengthy because there\u2019s such a long gap between Season of the Lost and Witch Queen, another said they checked their reputation stats after playing Destiny 2 for six weeks only to feel \u201ccrushingly deflated\u201d at the lack of progress. Others bemoaned the lack of powerful engrams available to boost overall power once a rank has been reset once, while others pointed out the slow path to increase Gambit reputation has never felt longer.

While Season of the Lost introduced new \u201cactivity streaks\u201d for players enjoying multiple Strikes, Crucible matches, or Gambit matches in a row, it\u2019s clear that plenty of fans feel that playing a single activity for hours for a weapon skin isn\u2019t a great way to keep Guardians logged in.
