Why so pessimistic, man?

The problem with the Division is the general loot scarcity. In order to to get decent loot you must go into the the DZ where players are coerced into PvP with the real risk of regression (i.e. loss of loot & credits & xp). Other activities are simply not worth the time, especially after you hit GS 231.

With 1.4 and tiered world system they are addressing many problems the loot scarcity has created.

For instance, do you realize that you will be able to actually farm any story mission you like? In Tier 4, any story mission will drop highest loot, so all those poor sobs willing doing 30 Amherst runs daily to get the stupid Caduceus will be drowning in gear.

Personally, I'm GS 255 on 3 alts with several viable builds but I am bored beyond words because of the lack of activities. DZ is not dropping anything worthwhile, story missions on Heroic drop 204 gear (!), I don't want to level up to UG20 because hard/challenging is dropping stupid loot etc., etc.

So I am looking forward to solo DZ 3/4 again (there will be 229 loot there finally), do daily assignments & story missions (229 loot!), HVTs, and level up in UG. All of that will be dropping 229 loot.

So let's give Massive a benefit of the doubt here.
