Oh look another 100+ upvoted topic ignored by Bungie. These are becoming the new medals of freedom

They did this in house of wolves, you could re-roll weapons with banshee. Pretty sure they removed the concept because everyone was getting their god rolls so quick.

In my opinion, if you've masterworked gear or weapons... that exact roll will be available from your collections; masterworking a different roll should then overwrite it (perhaps you can spend telemetries on getting masterwork 'focus' swapped back)??

That would render literally the entire game useless to play then. It would take all the grind out for 99% of players

I think bringing back the re-roll mechanic would be a slightly better idea than this. Where you come from is understandable, but you also have to realize that if we could do that it will literally make the game have no reason or point to play. Adding this in because I didn’t clarify myself, I don’t support the re-roll mechanic unless the material cost is really discouraging. Ie like it costs five ascendant shards and five upgrade modules plus 50k glimmer. It’s expensive, but for those who play the game religiously it’s not much to lose and gives them a reason to keep farming ordeals.

No. This game already severely lacks in replayability. Buying random rolls would leave almost nothing to grind for.

>Bungie implements the idea The community: Bungie, the game is lacking meaningful content. This is your fault. Y u no entertain me. Why don’t you listen to us.

A MORE VIABLE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM: Only the rolls you have already gotten to drop can be pulled back out, other (combinations of) perks are greyed out. E.G If you've rolled outlaw+rampage as your first bygones, those perks are select-able and you can pull that version of the weapon out even after deleting the gun... But not other combos like outlaw+kill-clip since kill-clip would be greyed out with outlaw selected until you had outlaw+kill-clip drop randomly. If you get every possible roll on that gun, you unlock all possible perk combinations on the collections weapon details page.

What about this idea here: Crafting. This is how it would work Every weapon can be crafted. To craft a weapon you would need generic parts (like a frame, barrel, etc) that could be 2 or 3 part. Those parts would come from every dismantle of that type (hand canon, auto rifle, pulse rifle, etc). Some weapons could share some components (like scope for scout/sniper), etc. From that point, every single weapon would have a specific part. I'm not sure on how that would work, but the best i can come with is this part would depend on dismantling THAT specific weapon. Think of spare rations, you dismantle it, and besides the generic parts, you would get a "spare ration blueprint". It's a one time use only, and would require dismantling that specific weapon. With all of that, you could craft another spare rations. To prevent that system abuse, some things could be put in place: - High glimmer / Shards cost. Possibly a new material that drop in high difficulties. - Time gate for crafting the same weapon. Doesn't need to be days, but maybe hours, etc. Crafted weapons would be a different kind of rarity (orange), and when dismantled, don't return any material (at least not frame/unique materials). So basically, you still need to grind, but for every one you get, you can try a second drop without the grind. The crafting system can behave similar to the Menagerie, where you can pre select something about the roll. Either 1 perk, or the masterwork, etc. The system could also benefit from the weekend bonus that happen from time to time. EX: Double craft weekend.

I pointed it out in y1, and it's still true today: Collections, as it is right now, is the single biggest waste of hardware resources in the the game. If we can't pull random rolls, take it out of the game entirely and watch console performance skyrocket.

I have a decent idea to try and satisfy more people. Masterworking a weapon will allow the option to "consume" the weapon for perks. Consuming the weapon will allow any masterwork version of the weapon access to those perks. Buying year two versions of the weapons from collections will give you a version of it with no perks (possibly a base sight) masterworking it will allow you to access all of the perks you've stored for that weapon.

I'm gonna say no to having random rolls on recollected items. If you can pull a Y2 or Y3 weapon from them, it should still have fixed perks (which I'm all for if that's what you actually meant). Otherwise you ruin the whole point of going out and grinding them when you can just spam the crap out of the reacquisition button until you get a good roll. You already see people doing this with sparrows and some ghost shells just to get those faster summon perks. A few grinds being a pain or an oversaturation of materials doesn't justify this. Former is often item specific (usually towards a pinnacle that's fixed either way), and the latter stems from a lack of a proper material sink unless you don't max out your discount at the Tribute Hall.
