Elemental Primaries in for but not rai specific, it'd become the only choice for PvE and leave players with less choices.

choices would be the same. Choose to use them or don't.

Yet people would almost always choose to use them

and that would be their choice.

Yes, but the idea of elemental modifiers on set weapons completely destroys weapon diversity in PvE. There would be no reason to use anything else because elemental primaries are just so much better. They take down enemy shields faster, and from what we have seen of them, have had stellar rolls that are the top of the line for PvE.

And so they should be. Its end game gear. When they went away from elemental primaries do you know how many people left the game. With no end game gear why would you do any end game content. Has to be something that sets them apart. If not elemental then something else. People raided the hell out of both crota and vog to get these weapons. Some dropped so rarely that it was the only way to get them. Also was really only way to get exotic drops outside of nightfall. Most things were hard to acquire if rng not with you and so every week you played to get them.

Exactly. One of the main reasons I left. PoE and KF weapons suck. I'm only back now because I switched to ps4 and am extremely bored right now
-
I was lucky. I only had to do VoG around 40-50 times on Xbox one to get all of the raid weapons, some guys were well over a hundred chasing the Foil. It was worth it though because FB, FV, PR, VoC etc. were all top tier weapons
-
took me 30 hard vog to get mythoclast and 50 to get fatebringer. fatebringer was last one to get.
-
Damn dude. Most of mine were chasing the Praetorian foil just so I could have them all. I got the mythoclast on my first run and at least 10 all told. I had probably at least 4-5 of everything else besides the foil. I spent more time trying to get the Black Hammer on Crota raid. Only ever got one of those.

-
RNG man. I got multiple WoCs, HoCs, only one Fang and one BH. Got the crux for the Nechro real quick too

But elemental primaries give you the clear advantage in PvE so there's a disadvantage to using kinetic weapons so why would you choose them over the elemental ones. This situation leaves players with basically no choice in PvE but to use elemental raid primaries. I'd rather have more variety instead of elemental primaries. They could make it so that you can get a material that can infuse primaries with elemental damage and raid/exotics can have a set element once you obtain them.
-
And that's why you would do end game stuff to get them. Nobody who just does patrols and story mode should get elemental primaries.

Is that to me or him? I am agreeing with you
