How do we make the Gunsmith relevant again?
I feel sorry for the Gunsmith. Standing behind that counter all day. Nothing to do. No one to talk to. (Except maybe a lvl 8 character) maybe the occasional Exotic Bounty lead.
A couple of my ideas:
[b] Allow him to upgrade weapon levels[/b]. The Stranger's rifle is cool, but at lvl 16 it lacks punch. What if I could upgrade it to 17, 18, 20? 300 attack on the Khovostov? Think about it!
[b] Allow him to change the elemental effect[/b] Let me take a rocket launcher that I like. Maybe its one that upgrades to the triple clip but it's only a lvl 18 with Arc damage. I could use my glimmer to get it to 20 and then change it to Void.
The fact is I don't even care if it's expensive. Give me (and the Gunsmith) something to do with my marks and glimmer. I'd pay 5000 to level it up. I'd pay the same to change the elemental. And I don't know if glimmer is the best fit for upgrade currency, the developers know best on that one, but let's put this guy to work again.
I hope he's on salary, cause if he's getting paid by the hour, bungie, you need to let him go.
[b] Update: [/b] After the House of Wolves Twitch reveal some of the most requested stuff will become reality! Thanks Bungie!

2 RepliesGreat idea, but i think that this could also possibly tie into the outfitter as well... imagine this: A system that may cost glimmer, strange coins, motes of light, and/or materials, etc. whatever is deemed necessary or fair to create our own shaders. For instance, if bungie were to incorporate a type of crafting system that will allow players to spend glimmer on solid colors (red, pink, green, etc) for a base color on gaunlets/boots/chest/helmet but all pieces of armor may be customized (blue helmet, green chest, pink gaunlets, etc). Then the user can also chose to spend strange coins or motes of light for accent colors, to add trim to the character (black facemask with the blue helmet, blue gloves with the pink gaunelts, etc). OR using the strange coins and motes of light to choose different patterns like camouflage, checkered, pinstripe, two tone, pearlescent, glowing, shining, radiance, etc. These effects and colors could be applied to different parts of the armor to let the player show creativity and variety in the shader. At the end of every week, bungie then can have anywhere from 1-10 of these man made shaders added to the outfitter for sale. What do you guys think?
