Just thinking... Weapon elements.

So, question of curiosity. Anyone ever wonder about having weapons with multiple elements? Member when we could get weapons to drop in all three elements? I member, and I liked it. It always felt great to have a favorite weapon that I could use in any element I chose. I could pursue the best rolls from each, if they had differences [i](the perk selection was pretty limited compared to now)[/i] and it was fine. Even though it was the same weapon, it still felt a bit different between them. It effectively was more variety, while feeling consistent and familiar. I think about all the perks we have now, and how PvP complaints are often around the use of one or two weapons. I mean, really there's just a handful of weapons in the game, comparatively that everyone uses, that are much more effective, which is fine, not a complaint, but why not bring back multiple element weapons again? I'd love to have three different element Ammits. Crafting is pretty streamlined and polished now. I enjoy it, minus the dismal drop rates [i](Still haven't had a single Adhorative drop...)[/i] which could be improved, but that feels like a nice bolster to it, while still keeping it more simple. Just thinking.

  • They only did it bc the top dps combo was the ikelos shotgun w/ tractor cannon at the time. Bungie didn’t like it when we could make any weapon void and get that damage buff so they took that ability away. I still have some mismatched element weapons in my vault but they made some of them locked in a specific element.
