Loot system sucks?

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide General Discussion
1

This game has wonderful gameplay, but a loot system that feels a bit lacking. Why would I run lvl 5 missions when the highest tier gear start showing up at lvl 3? In Vermintide the higher mission difficulties made sense, because thats where you had a chance of getting the best gear. In Darktide the only reason to try the the higher difficulties is out of boredom, as you become progressively overpowered and the challenge in the mid lvl missions isnt there anymore.

And why would you risk picking up grims when all they do is give you a small amount of money?

I dont get it. Am I missing something?

From free to play but they have the same systems in place.

Releasing an ARPG/ Looter-Shooter with no loot system is certainly a unique design choice.
