How do we feel about only being able to pledge to a single Faction per account starting with this week's Faction Rally?
I guess it will depend on how good or bad the grind is but I am generally against it in general. Limiting players to what they can do on different characters (which are usually different classes) is not something that should be added to the game long after the fact. We've been able to pledge to different Factions since the early days of D1.
Either way, since they are doing three Faction Rallies in Season 3, it's going to be frustrating if the grind is really bad and we're not able to get all the rewards within a week even if we play a lot.
I'm fine with it as it always seemed silly to be able to "pledge" multiple factions. I mean what's the point if you end up pledging all three anyways but the bigger problem was the event itself was the biggest non-event in Destiny's history. Make it meaningful and continue to evolve it into something truly unique and special and the account-wide thing will feel right.
That said, putting Catalysts behind factions seems a bit wrong as I really want the Graviton Lance and the Sunshot ones. Instead, I would rather see some really awesome class items that you need to grind for and leave the weapon/armor Catalysts to strikes/raids/crucible, etc.
