The amount of ways you get Enhancement Cores is not the problem. It's how wasteful using them for infusion is.

Even if you have a few spare your left in limbo as to when you use them. What if your next two powerful drops in the same slot but you infused on the first drop. It's a waste. Until your drops are at the power cap it's a flawed system I believe. And you can rarely use them to actually master work anything. I hope this comes across as constructive criticism as that's my intention. Cheers

  • I kept one great roll per weapon an put in the the vault. Now when I get powerful drops it doesn't matter I just infuse like for like and wouldn't ya know it already 700 an still have cores. Now mind you not all infusion was like for like in my grind. Sometimes I did it cause it was fun an I said F-it, I'll just get more cores later. It's about balance. There not changing it. I never have more than 50 but no less than 2. It's a game play. The only time masterwork armor is useful(noticeable) is in comp.

    • I have to disagree. Apart from for those god tier rolls for Crucible..I find masterworking a huge hassle. I would not masterwork guns even if they removed them from infusion. Infusion to a higher level than giving my extremely rare god rolls that extra little tidbit of shine to look special.

      I agree with you but 1 core from a bounty isn't a enough they need to increase the number of cores on the spider bounties from 1 to 3, and instead of adding more bounties add cores to planet bounties instead its that simple.

      I have over 975 hours logged into this game, and masterworking your own items may as well not even be a thing. It's definitely not an option for me, and I think I put in a good amount of play time. I don't crazily infuse random items, but I don't want to get stuck using undesirable perks for very long just to be able to run at my highest light level. I have a couple of items per character that I always run, and I can barely keep a handful of cores on hand. Spending 3 hours a day using the brother Vance loophole isn't something I even care to consider.

        • Sort of. Consider that the current method for effectively earning cores is shopping at/running errands for Spider. Unless you are deliberately farming cores there is no reason to visit Spider. Except maybe planetary materials, because 25 per infusion means you could buy 1,000 and be out again in 40 infusions (provided all 40 require the same material) a 250% increase from the D1 cost of 10 mats.

        • The problems are: 1. They are far too rare a currency for the mundane function they serve. It’s like your grocery store demanding payment in diamonds. 2. They take far too much work to obtain. 3. That work is not part of the natural process of gameplay and is unpleasant. Which is why Bungie is never going to win this fight. They’re either going to have to back down or they’ll bleed players until the game fails. Fact is they need us more than we need them. Only question is how long it will take them to figure this out.... ....and how much damage will they do to the franchise and their reputation (again) before they do?

          • I dont get why there is a barrier to infusion when, for the most part, power drops are behind activities anyway. Doing the stuff should be only real barrier to level progression in my eyes. If the were just used for master working things they can be as rare and expensive to use as you like IMO. Because it's a very endgame thing to do and it's just a bonus. It's making your gear the best it can be. Levelling up preferred gear is not endgame, it's what gets you go the endgame. Right? Aaaaaand its 100% lame to mix and match gear until your at the cap IMO too lol

I’ll use the enhancement core infusion system only on items I need for a higher power level activity in a pinch. If not, I’ll just use the use the “same item” infusion system at a cost of just glimmer.

              • I think your missing the point. I don’t have a problem getting cores, I know how to properly use cores, and not waste them. But the infusion system in my opinion is not good. Getting cores from spider is often a waist of time. The materials farm is a work around that is tedious and boring. It proves the system doesn’t work.

              • I agree, it I think some of the community miss the point of infusion. It's not to infuse every piece of +2 gear you get in a given slot. You hold onto those pieces so that higher and higher rewards drop from Milestones, Primes, and Exotics (which is a free infusion), and you really only infuse every 10 or 15 power levels. Or, people can save infusion for their weapons, and just throw on whatever armor they get until they're ready to infuse. Remember, armor perks arent that important in most gameplay. You could play the whole game in Year 1 armor with no perks.

              • The problem is people wasting them for only a level or 2 increase. Save them until about 680+ before you start infusing old gear. There's plenty that drop

                • Correct the only problem I see with cores is the current system incentivized you to wait until you have all your rewards for the week THEN infuse. That’s the issue. You either wait or do it inefficiently. I don’t have a problem with cores themselves
