Umbral Engrams Focusing System also for Shaxx, Zavala, Lord Saladin and other Vendors?
Hello Guardians and Bungie!
One of the things that I'm appreciating more of this Season is the Focusing System for Umbral Engrams.
The idea that I can actually influence what I'm going to get from an Engram is quite cool and makes the grind less Stressful. Also, it would be even better is we could Focus stats on Weapons other then Armor Pieces.
I was wondering: why don't try to implement a similar System also for other Vendors such as Shaxx, Zavala, Lord Saladin, Saint-14 ecc? I believe that many players would eventually appreciate the possibility to influence the Iron Banner drop from Engrams instead of using an old and outdated system such as Tokens.
But this is only my prospective. What do you Guardians think about it? How would you implement this system? Would you modifie it somehow? Do you think this coud eventually bring problems?

11 RepliesNo. The umbral focusing feature is not as good as anyone thinks it is. We've had modes like Menagerie and even Sundial that let you actual pick the reward you want. This made farming so much better. Now, we have a system with a 50/50 chance of getting the item you want. Just no. I can't tell you how many swords I ended up with trying to get a decent pulse rifle roll. One time I turned in 8 engrams and got 2 pulse rifles and 6 swords. Biungie seem to have no idea how to handle reward RNG and just keep trying something different every season. This isn't the answer. I don't want a 50/50 chance to get a reward out of an already random drop.
