@whatsthefakk In my opinion, I'll have to disagree with you on some aspects.
To be honest, I love the new shield update and perk system, however, the amount of points needed from blue to purple and then red is a bit stupid, if this was reduced by say 400 points between each it becomes alot more balanced and easier for people to get.
In its current state, there's many ways of getting points so it's not too bad. For example, the 350 collection points then 150 for opening specific bins with different legends and then scanning drops etc.
