Please nerf the bounty hunt grind strat, especially the solar sisters.

Its ridiculous that we have these challenges to go out and play the game, gather orbs, and actually do the event to unlock rewards, but then we have people who go to these bounty hunts and grind nons...

    I've never grinded any bounty hunts, in fact some of them were hard enough to get done once. I have plenty of money, all my plants mastered, and all regions to 100%. Now I'm working on leveling up zombies. Only thing left is to repeat stuff or pvp. I like to play solo pve to be honest. Right now my interest in the game has dropped because there's not much to do in the areas I prefer to play. I get bored in pvp, I'm not interested in grinding for the sake of grinding. I am at the point where I want to do something fun and if it means doing bounties.. Solo.. Then who cares? I shouldn't get punished for replaying something I enjoy because somebody else isn't getting money/xp/cosmetic swag at the same rate. 

    There should be faster ways of achieving things bc we don't all have the same amount of play time. If I work a full time job, have kids, school, etc and I get a couple hours a week to play. There is NO way I'd ever catch up (if that's your main complaint) to any other player who has a lot of time to play. I think the bounties are fine. I think the devs need to focus on other issues like not letting us choose a side without penalty when we do play TT, balancing, bugs and glitches, pc issues, etc.

    Just my 2 cents.

1 - If you want to eliminate a problem, remove the motivation behind it. Challenges can be absurdly grindy, like killing 75 vase weeds. I thought the game was aimed at a wider audience, including families. Some of these challenges narrow down the spectrum of people who can get orbs. 

2 - How is someone obtaining a cosmetic faster than you hurting the game? On top of that, it's an option that anyone can use. It's not restricted and it's not an exploit. I can carry a couple of young ones through bounties, I can't help them get a 5 revive streak or 75 random spawns. Should I tell them they don't get to have the Halloween teddy skin because they're not good enough? If anything, excluding people due to ability or age from getting this stuff would hurt the game more than what you're claiming right now.

It's a game that's specifically meant to also be enjoyed by families. The "I'm better at the game/can play longer than you so I deserve more" logic shouldn't apply. That's World of Warcraft.

@SaduhemI agree that the challenges can be tedious and too difficult for young ones (especially kill 75 of this certain spawn). I’m glad they let you re-roll and it doesn’t cost anything to re-roll. I like challenges, because it lets people who are busy be able to play a couple of hours and get bulbs. They should make the challenges more family-friendly. The XP bulb shouldn’t be 15k and more like 10k.

If the bounty hunt really becomes a problem for the community, then easily making the first completion prize huge and nice and then every redo being less and less would be ok. It’s not an exploit and if this idea is an improvement for the game, i would go for it.

A combination of all of these should fix the battle pass problem for all. This problem is more than just the bounty hunt and more on the whole battle pass bulb earnings.
