  • I want elemental primaries period! Raid or not...I would even settle for two more exotic primaries with solar and void burn.

  • As much as I'd like elemental primaries back, Bungie aren't going to do anything. Not unless it's over Luke Smith's cold, dead corpse.

  • This is a Shooter where effective Guns are 'bad'. Don't waste your time with this. If they return them it will not be enough to reverse the process already started... Nothing can at this point...

  • I don't understand people who say, "No, we don't need raid weapons with Elemental Burn because they will be over used in PVP".... Elemental Burn means f-all in PVP and is only good against a third of enemies in PvE.... The reason Vision of Confluence was used so much was because it was a bloody fantastic weapon, great stats, great control, looked and sounded and felt great. Probably still the best gun Bungie have made for Destiny. It was used because it was awesome, not because of elemental burn, so I want great weapons again, and I particularly like elemental burn on primaries.

      One reason they were got rid of was because Bungie didn't want everyone using the same guns, fair play. BUT he's a thing Bungie, check your data for the Nightfall this week and I bet that 90% of players will use the Supercell and the 10% that don't will not have it yet. Running the Year 1 raids were so important because you knew that if you got one of the elemental primaries then when that burn was on the Nightfall it was going to be fun. But for some reason Bungie keeps nurfing our FUN. It a no brainer IMO.

        • I see a lot of posts claiming it'd be game-breaking or detrimental to the health of the game, for the life of me I can't seem to see it. Realistically thinking, take a solar primary weapon which is effective against all of about 3 enemies in the game. Centurions, Taken Captains and Wizards, if the game has a modifier granting shields to lower level minions then I guess it includes shanks (For a limited amount of time). So 3 enemies in the game you get slightly boosted damage against, perhaps I missed one? I just don't see this as game breaking, I'd call it a perk or reward for finishing the most challenging content this game has to offer, be it Trials or a Raid. Right now the raid weapons are junk minus Smite of Merain if you got a good rolled one. If you want a sense of "balance", why not add in the elemental burns again. Let them do increased damage of +66% against relevant shielded minions and REDUCED damage of -33% again each of the other two opposing shield types, give that a test try? :o

                • They would have to give it a draw back to make kinetic actually worth using. What i thought they could do is elemental does bonus against itself but does less against other elements. Then kinetic doesnt have the bonus damage but doesnt do less damage against elements. I think this would bring in more planning before activities and mean more grinding to get a good roll for each element. The problem with this is secondaries do not have kinetic after a certain level so they would have to change that.

                  • Honestly, I kiked that there were no elemental Legendaries, primary raid weapons were soo underwelming, I didn't even like one. Yes, bring them back. Give us something to hunt after.

                    • I at least want god tier perk rolled weapons like the vault of glass. I could care less about burns if the guns are mostly garbage like half of the crota guns or almost 100% of the kings fall guns!

                    • I don't care if it's elemental damage or something else, just give the raid weapons something special that makes them worth working for. [spoiler]No, cocoon doesn't count...[/spoiler]

                      • Elemental primaries don't make much of a difference. They matter if there is a burn on the weeklies or nightfall so that for an incredibly small amount of content. What I want are good raid weapons again. The VAST majority of the kings fall raid weapons are bad. The exceptions are few and far between and require very specific rolls to be of any worth but the majority of the weapons are outclassed by gunsmith and vendor weapons.

                        I want [i]all[/i] primaries to have a elemental burn. It doesn't make sense, lore wise or gameplay wise, for them to have kinetic burn while everything else has elemental. And if all primaries had them, then all primaries would be a PvE option, not just the raid ones, like before. #TitanMasterRace
