So with the talk of elemental primaries...

My opinion, all primary exotics should have the ability to be upgraded with an element if they do not yet have one (e.g. Vex, Necro, Zhalo). 2500 glimmer, 25 weapon parts, Exotic shard x1, and an elemental core x1 that drops ONLY on the hard end game activity, RNG, as either solar, arc, or void. The gun, once upgraded emits a chroma glow matching the damage type from the barrel. This adds enough reason to work for that end game grind, while also giving reason to do it enough to get those favorite primary exotics upgraded. Any ideas or suggestions or salt, have at it, but something needs to be done to once again make people feel like there's a reward for getting through the raid.

  • Or at the very least a telemetry that gives your equipped weapon a damage burn for 30 minutes. Make the gunsmith sell something more usefull than heavy synths and weapon parts

  • Saw an interesting idea where each class had a subclass with a perk that triggered an elemental rffect upon reloading, seemed like a fairly neat idea. Sadly despite bungies notion of not limiting players to a specific weapon for elemental purposes I find myself simply not caring about what weapons I have since its usually just some scout rifle, peraonally it feels like there is less vatiety now than ever.

    • Even though Bungie says that Elemental Primaries limit weapon diversity in PvE, it would still be a great idea to make all Exotic Primaries deal elemental damage because the fact that they are exotic is what limits them, because there are much better exotics out there to use that aren't primaries. One of the only reasons I'm using Zhalo this week for Heroic strikes is because Small Arms is on, but if it wasn't I'd just switch to Bolt-Caster.

      I hated the Oryx raid so bad, not even the lure of elemental primaries would be enough to get me to try that PoS again.

        Good idea. In Rise of Iron there should be "<element here> Elemental Core" that drop from the new raid. It would give incentive to do the raid (especially if the weapons aren't great, like in KF), and it would also add weapon variety and more options.
