Destiny 2 has always been better at the shooter side of the looter-shooter spectrum, but the MMO finally delivered a true-blue loot rain this season with the well-received Coil activity. You get multiple chests throughout the Coil, and if you play it well, you get a giant room full of chests at the end, all containing valuable endgame materials and some solid weapons. At a recent group interview, I asked Bungie if it's ready to meet the inevitable demands for more Coil-grade loot going forward, and the dev team's response was encouraging (and at times eyebrow-raising given the miserly payouts we've gotten in past game modes, but I digress).
"Absolutely," began staff designer Clayton Kisko. "We're thrilled with that response and I think, you know, when we're setting out to make an activity, we are putting the respect of the player's time in the forefront. You can see that in the Coil, getting paid out after every boss run, and as things get harder and things take a little bit longer, your rewards grow to match and evolve that level of difficulty. After an hour of playing, we all just thought it's a natural conclusion to have this special room that we could reward players who have mastered that content over that length of time and then to absolutely make it rain for them.
