Me personally, I’m already bored out of my mind only by reading it, but I’ll have a look and judge after getting first-hand experience.
How do others feel about dailies, weeklies, monthlies as currency grind for reward?
KROOF is pretty thrilled about it, I’ve linked her post as an additional source for people. The prospect of a neutered battle pass without the anti-social aspects is worth mentioning.
With respect, I think you are perhaps doing something wrong if you are experiencing a gear grind, and are not going for legendary equipment.
Exotic gear is perfectly fine for all endgame content except tier 4 fractals and, perhaps, harvest temple CM. Exotic gear can be acquired incredibly cheaply and then you’re ready to go - if you need help, I’d be happy to advise.
