Bungie explaining in the 9/25/2025 TWID what's happening to the Portal modifiers come October 14th: "To solve this, we are going to simplify modifier selection when playing Solo Ops, Fireteam Ops, and Pinnacle Ops so you don't need to worry about making activity Power deltas too punishing. We’re also going to set delta caps that are lower and easier to handle than the deltas that players were most often facing in the past: Challenge modifiers will no longer adjust your activity combatant delta by -10 or -20. Instead, they will only increase your projected score and add the described effect to the game. This way, you can choose modifiers based solely on their effects and score bonuses without worrying about making combatant Power more difficult. New difficulty delta caps will be set for Advanced, Expert, Master, Grandmaster, and Ultimate difficulties that are lower than what players were generally forced to play before when using challenge modifiers. Please note that as a result of these changes, players will no longer be able to over-level PvE activities in Portal Ops. We are trading this aspect of the system for a more consistent combatant Power experience as you earn new tiers of gear to grow stronger, more freedom to select the mods you want for the grades you’re targeting, and decreased difficulty across the mid to high difficulty levels. This will notably result in easier activities when playing Master, Grandmaster, and Ultimate."
