And those reasons are? lol
[QUOTE=RichyZ;52936127]the idea is to de-incentivize heavy grinding and incentivize short bursts of play or otherwise playing modes that dont have that many opportunities to earn xp (crucible for example)
its to prevent people from spending all their free time running heroic public events or just sitting in the castellum for the raid just shooting cabal all day i guess

they're loosening up on the idea tho, the exploit timer on opening world chests has been decreased for the next update ontop of some other stuff, hopefully shit will actually give xp soon because like i said, when scaling was on it actually took less time to level[/QUOTE]
That could be done just by increasing XP gains from crucible and strikes without having some sort of weird throttling on it.

It's better to show an increase of XP than it is to show a decrease. Look at any MMO, rested bonuses are a thing because of this.

Yeah, I remember when they introduced this mechanic to WoW.
Originally you just had your normal XP gain, and being 'unrested' (can't remember what it was called) gave you a debuff to XP gain.
When people complained they didn't change any values, they just took the label off the unrested XP and labeled the normal XP gain 'rested'. Suddenly it seemed like a bonus and now everyone is okay with it lol
