How the Weapon Upgrade System should work. (In a nutshell)

I think that the weapon upgrade system is horrible in Destiny, and its time for Bungie to rethink the system, and here's how I'd think it should be. First off, I think that most all the weapons that you find should start at a Low rarity, so you'll have time to "bond" to it and make it your own. Each weapon should start off with a base damage, and be built from different parts, the main part being, the "Weapon Core". Weapon Cores are what make your gun work. They tie in all the different parts of your gun, they also increase the amount of damage your weapon deals. Weapon parts would include something like (for example) for an Auto Rifle, it would have Sights/Scopes, Stocks, Magazines, Lazer Sights, and Ammo Types. Sights/Scopes - (obviously) These change your ADS by modifying Range, Stability, etc. Stocks - These modify Stability, Relaod Speed, etc. Magazines - These can be modified to hold more or less Ammunition, but at the price of Stability, Rate of Fire, etc. Lazer Sights - These increase Accuracy. Ammo Type - This would modify your Impact, and on higher level Ammo Types these would allow the weapon to have a Elemental Damage Type All the while changing the way your weapon looks based on the equipped Weapon Parts. These Weapon Parts can be acquired by dismantling weapons (the higher level of the weapon, the higher level of weapon parts). Or by killing and "Looting" enemies. Enemies would have a 15% chance on dropping a random Weapon Part, and the higher level of the enemy, the higher the chance to get a better Weapon Part. Also, enemies would drop only a specific set of Weapon Parts based on their Race. Each part placed on your weapon (depending on the Race it dropped from) would change the way your weapon runs. For example a Reaver Captain wielding a Shock Rifle could drop a module that would allow your Rocket Launcher's projectile to track enemies. So you would be able to build a weapon very unique and made from various types of alien tech, or you could just buy Weapon Parts from say "The Foundry" in the Tower. Here's a small example of how this system would be setup - The Rarity of the Weapon only allows a Set amount of Weapon Parts that can be placed onto your gun. The level of a Weapon Core allows you to place different Weapon Parts onto your gun. [b]Basic Weapon Core: Lvl 0-5[/b] A weapon with a Basic Weapon Core will only be allowed to upgrade your Weapon Core Standard Weapon Core - Damage: 50 Modified Weapon Core - Damage: 60 Upgraded Weapon Core - Damage: 70 [b]Common Weapon Core: Lvl 5-10[/b] Only 2 Weapon Parts can be used at one time on all Common Weapon Cores -Standard Common Weapon Core - Damage: 80 - Allows Barrels -Modified Common Weapon Core - Damage: 90 - Allows Barrels, and Sights/Scopes -Upgraded Common Weapon Core - Damage: 100 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, and Stocks [b]Rare Weapon Core: Lvl 10-20[/b] Only 3 Weapon Parts can be used at one time on all Rare Cores -Standard Rare Weapon Core - Damage: 110 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, Stocks, and Magazines -Modified Rare Weapon Core - Damage: 120 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, Stocks, Magazines, and Lazer Sights -Upgraded Rare Weapon Core - Damage: 130 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, Stocks, Magazines, and Lazer Sights [b]Legendary Weapon Core: Lvl 20-30[/b] Only 4 Weapon Parts can be used at one time on all Legendary Weapon Cores -Standard Legendary Weapon Core - Damage: 140 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, Stocks, Magazines, and Lazer Sights -Modified Legendary Weapon Core - Damage: 150 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, Stocks, Magazines, and Lazer Sights -Upgraded Legendary Weapon Core - Damage: 160 - Allows Barrels, Sights/Scopes, Stocks, Magazines, Lazer Sights, and Ammo Types [b]Exotic Weapon Core: Lvl 30[/b] All 5 Weapon Parts can be used at one time on all Exotic Weapon Cores -Standard Exotic Weapon Core - Damage: 170 - Allows All Options -Modified Exotic Weapon Core - Damage: 180 - Allows All Options -Upgraded Exotic Weapon Core - Damage: 190 - Allows All Options This is just my opinion. Any feedback would be great. Thanks for reading.
