Borealis is a great long range gun for PvE and PvP, giving it Antibarrier to deal with even more shields would be a nice touch, and I guess that also means it buffs damage versus Barricades. Borealis's whole thing as a special weapon is to break shields from afar. It's a very underated gun.

3 RepliesImagine if it could swap between elements and Champion types. Solar--Anti-Barrier Arc--Overload Void--Unstoppable Obviously, that'd be broken, but it'd still be pretty neat.

2 RepliesEdited by Acnologia: 9/30/2022 1:54:38 AMIt comes with anti barrier build in: Arc - Volt Shot Solar - Incandescence Void - volatile rounds

2 RepliesI think all 3 of the element-swapping weapons need some sort of flavour added to them. Right now, none are worth the cost of an exotic slot. While anti-champ would be nice, (Dead Messenger - unstoppable Borealis - barrier Hard Light - overload) they still need more, like interactions with the 3.0 keywords or something

1 ReplyEdited by neonsox42: 9/29/2022 2:38:27 PMHonestly, I’d rather they just give it a generic buff. I don’t know if this is still a thing, but have it not lose its damage buff when swapping elements. I’m not super enthusiastic of just giving every exotic a champion mod. Hardlight would be a great opportunity to add perks onto it. I’d add Genesis and Shield Disorient to its catalyst. Dead Messenger is in a pretty great spot rn so I wouldn’t touch it.

6 RepliesI have a better idea. Make it be capable of handling all champs with element swap. Void- Overload Solar- Unstop Arc- Barrier Or something like that

3 RepliesTbh all exotics should have an intrinsic anti-champ mod, and then use the seasonal to apply it to legendaries. Or have the mods be available all the time for like 3 energy, and then the seasonal versions for 1, like how the Scav perks work. Bungie just chooses to make us play their way.

I agree. It's already designed around being a safe -blam!- type of weapon. It's meant to be a skeleton key for shields. Hard Light would also benefit from this treatment as it provides the same niche. It would also help break up the default to arbelest meta we have right now.

12 Repliesthis gun should just be deleted and its annoying as f in crucible.

Edited by Draw, O Coward!: 9/29/2022 9:44:35 AMYes bring this baby into the new pve Meta with a bang.

Same for hard light. I'd also like to see either sheild disorient or disruption break added to either or both.

Give it more damage and rockets
-
Give it Genesis.

needs to be reworked or just left to rot
