Kinetic weapons are arguably much worse than elemental weapons. 1. They can’t synergise with any subclass (except transcendence, from a paid subclass) 2. They can’t break elemental shields 3. Can’t have anything like scorch, unravel, volatile, or any subclass weapon buffs In today’s sandbox, Kinetic weapons need a boost. They need something that makes them more desirable to use over elemental weapons like sunshot or graviton. The extra damage was great for this. Now it’s gone. Seeing as you hate players having extra damage where it matters, I’ve proposed a new solution: shield shredding. Allow kinetic weapons to rapidly break shields of any element, OR give us new fragments and exotic armour that synchronises with Kinetic easily.
