[u][disclaimer]: [/u][spoiler]I'm pretty sure i have heard an idea along these line before, but i have no idea where.[/spoiler] There are 2 TL;DR's in this post. One extended (right at bottom) and one short summary a small way above. How Rerolling [u]should[/u] work: -Weak perks are buffed and removed from certain weapons. [b]==>[/b] encourages deferent play styles by making many viable perks that complement certain play styles. [b]E.g-[/b][spoiler] I like outlaw and Explosive rounds on High impact SR's. Trouble is, they contradict. Who's next is basically a weaker Outlaw combined with Spray and Play. This is an example of a few viable perks that can be switched around to fit certain play styles, and perk preferences. Thus promoting perk variation, and play stye variation.[/spoiler] [u][b]The process[/b][/u] [b]1.[/b]Weapons are rerolled at Banshee (same Vendor). [b]2.[/b]Weapons are turned in to Banshee for [u]2500 Glimmer and 20 Legendary marks[/u] and [u]multiples[/u] of the same weapon [u]can be turned in[/u] for a better chance at ideal rolls. [b]3.[/b]Banshee gives you a placeholder for the weapon you turned in, like Armsday orders. (just a package like an arms day order, but with a symbol for the weapon's source) [b]4.[/b]Every week, entirely random rolls come in at arms day. number of rolls depends on rank, like current orders. [b]==>[/b] Eventually your ideal roll would come. [u][b]Example images[/b][/u] [spoiler][b][u][url=http://imgur.com/eLVlvib]Order Pop-up E.g[/url][/u][/b][/spoiler] [spoiler][b][u][url=http://imgur.com/hZbRm4N]Order Placard E.g[/url][/u][/b][/spoiler] -This means [u]orders cannot be spammed[/u], and the worse your RNG with your rolls, the more chances you can get at your ideal one, [u]by turning in multiples.[/u] -We don't all have the same idea of a god roll (except on shotguns), so if anything, this would encourage perfecting [u]unique play styles.[/u] [b]E.g:[/b] [spoiler]My dream Primary would be a Badger CCL with Reactive reload, Who's next(?), explosive rounds and Focus Lens LFA5. I haven't seen many others trying for that roll.[/spoiler] [spoiler]What's your dream primary?[/spoiler] [u][b]This over Y1 Reforging.[/b][/u] -Y1 had [u]little weapon and perk variation[/u], and my understanding of the negativity surrounding Y1 reforging was because the narrow meta weapons were rerolled until narrow "god-tier" perks were obtained. -In Y2/3, we have more weapon variation, and more perk variation, so we all have different ideas about the "best" weapon. -Y1 reforging could be spammed. This can't. [b]TL;DR[/b]: This is hard to summarise, but ill try my best: [spoiler]Weapons can be reforged just like arms day orders, turn in a weapon, get the order placard, and wait until your ideal roll comes (usual arms day every Wednesday).[/spoiler] EDIT #1: The reason i'm using a system similar to Armsday, is as, right now, arms day is balanced. You can get your ideal roll, but it takes ages. -Badger CCL is used as a test subject for all images and [b]E.g's[/b]. -For all who are wondering about my Who's next perk pick: [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/2ywwab/discussion_how_it_works_weapon_ability_whos_next/?st=isaqsp48&sh=b74a90a9]Look here[/url] [b]-The reason[/b] that this is changing from Y1 rerolling, is because in Destiny's current economy, and in Bungie's balanced goal this is the most balanced system, shown via current arms day orders. EDIT #2 [b]-E.g[/b]: I turn in 5 Image loops. You'd get 15 back at arms day. Thats a really good chance at a god-roll. If you don't get your roll that week, you can wait another week and have 15 more available. [b]-Extended TL;DR[/b]: [spoiler]Ok, so right now, arms day orders a brought at a limited number depending on your rank, and when they come the next Wednesday (armsday), the number of rolls on the weapon you brought maxes out at three (1 rank 1 roll). So for this idea, you can give in a weapon for 2500 glimmer (the price for a current order) and 20 legendary marks (the cost for the ability to be able to turn in multiples) and Banshee gives you an order placard like the current arms day orders. This is untransferable, and prevents total spamming. The next Wednesday, the orders come in and for each placard you get a number of rolls, maxing out at 3 rolls per order placard. So if i turned in 6 Badger CCL's to Banshee, i would have 6 weapons x 3 rolls = a total of 18 rolls to select from next arms day. So yes, it's heavily based on the current system. But the current system is currently very balanced, and so this is a version that allows you to get your roll even quicker by turning in multiples.[/spoiler] EDIT #3 [b]-For those complaining it takes too long, you can still earn the weapons normally.[/b] BTW: All rolls are entirely random.

  • Down voted. Leave it up to RNG to decide who gets good guns. If you don't like it just buy packages from the gunsmith if you want choice. Being able to get the guns you want defeats the purpose of grinding.
