I think the main issue that I have with it is the disparity between the two routes. The power difference between a weapon or frame that you have invested in and one that you have not is often enormous. If it was a workable downgrade the impact of the randomness would not be viewed as negatively in my opinion. But with how the game works, the power gap between 5% of my arsenal and the other 95% is enough to discourage me from participating 19/20 times when I roll within that 95%. And with how much of a detriment a dead player is in this game mode, I really don’t want to be dead weight for the sake of other players. Imagine actually getting a good loadout and being stoked, just to have half of your squad show up with bad gear and get downed half way in.
