Okay, I among many other players already, aren't exactly happy seeing the orb generation system of masterworks turned into a mod, but the main reason for that in my eyes is because Bungie chose Helmets, the home of our ammo finders, targeting mods and those mods like "Hands On" which give us super energy for our abilities, Personally I believe moving it to Class Items or Boots would be better but that's not the main topic of this post
What I'm rather curious about is what is the point of masterworking now? There aren't many players who genuinelt care for those kill trackers on certain weapons, and even then it doesn't feel worth the resources to get a kill tracker
When players masterwork a weapon it is because of the following reasons
A) They are a new player wanting to know what it does
B) They are a player who just got a good roll on a weapon and wanted to give it the boost of orb generation
C) they are on of the few players who takes any old weapon and masterworks it just to go grind kills and try to brag about their 20,000 kills with that weapon (Looking at you Trinity Ghoul users, go back to the Thrallway and get 50,000 lol)
Will Masterworked Weapons have maybe a second mod slot?
Perhaps a way to slot in kill effects, it would allow people to have fun making enemies burst into confetti, maybe when they die a flower spawns at their corpse, something pleasing that you would notice more than just an extra bit of reload speed or meter of range
Just give us something entertaining other than a kill tracker and a small boost to a single stat, please.
Edit: I have noticed the main reason is not what I mentioned though that is far up there, the first place spot goes to CWL builds getting hurt badly (Charged with light for those who don't understand), and personally I agree, when 90% of those builds rely off of Orbs of Light

The real reason people masterwork us destiny has always had a content problem. Since Bungie was about to make more content, they enticed players to keep playing the same old content by dangling orbs of power and masterwork-ing before our eyes. Bungie just continues to disrespect their player base time and time again.
