The latest This Week At Bungie has been released and the company started off the post by apologizing for issues players of Destiny 2 have had with faction rally tokens. The company noted that the update released on January 12 to limit Faction Rally token rewards from Lost Sector chests was “too disruptive”
Bungie stated…
There was an issue in the previous Faction Rallies where players were earning hundreds of Faction Tokens per hour without firing a single shot. In the recent December 12 update, Faction Token rewards were added to an existing system that was locking players out from Lost Sector Rewards. We have heard player feedback that this solution was too disruptive. We’re looking at a change that won’t make players feel forced to run to and from a single chest for hours while also not placing a hard stop on enjoying Lost Sectors. We want to ensure that every time you open a chest there is loot inside. We’ll share more details on this before the next Faction Rallies.
