Rework loot from projects to reflect new realities in game

With the intro of prototype gear and escalation it seems the only two game modes people are playing is escalation, and some retaliation and that's about it. The rewards for weekly legendary mission (one exotic cache) and the other weekly project (3 exo components) are no longer worth the time invested. No one seems to want to work on their projects for such limited rewards. You can also matchmake for hours to do the incursion.

Say what you want about destiny (I've played it and left along time ago be a use if the grind that never pays off even though I payed for the dlc and season pass etc) but at least they kept the content flowing, there value in doing your dailies, and weeklies each time you got on, and then running the raids on a regular basis.

In the division, it just seems there's no incentive to return to the content, or run your projects on a regular basis any more. Just retaliation and escalation, so if that's the case add projects for these game modes or increase the number of exos from existing projects or add a proto cache or something. The seasonal daily mission should also give exo components. Also escalation should reward a guaranteed proto at the end with increased chances at higher tiers or a core at least with increasing cores at higher tiers especially for the agent risking to tokens. If they don't fix the token issue, but this would encourage more people to host and risk tokens.

My last little but will be unpopular but I think it should be reverted back to non targeted drops, random, it was meant to be a longterm grind for veterans and its turned into a new player can get the best new gear. Or as I've seen mentioned before the proto gear shouldn't drop at lvl 30, and can only be equiped once it is, that way agents would still need to grind to use it which would at least make it somewhat fair to the grind veteran agents have but in to level up their gear in the past.

At a minimum we need to be able to reroll the core for proto gear.

If we don't get a way to reroll the core (r, b, y) then only red builds are really worth farming in escalation. Because A: blue cores hinder ttk, and B: proto yellow are 1.5 so I'd want to mix more red in to skill builds which can only be done if I farm the other pieces as a high end and use exos to make it lvl 30 expertise. This is the same then with all blue or yellow gear or brand sets, lengmo, or habsburg, or any, so its pointless to farm them as proto beyond proto cores since you can't get the unicorns you can as high end versions!
