Personally i would have prefered that the system was not changed, but the change that you went with made sure to spereate pvp and pve balancing, great on ya This a good idea up for the elemental primary system. Adept versions and regular verision are a perfect way to balance pvp builds while still reintroducing elemental primaries. An exotic needs to outperform a legend counterpart in some way, or just have something that gives a particular advantage. And technically, they arent wrong in beleiving that guns like fatebringer are powerful and unique In pve, many of the elemental primaries, especially the earlier ones, felt very strong and really were statisfying to use Now that we have the option to get that advantage via exotic slot, or use that same weapon without that advantage while still keeping a very powerful perk set, there will be a great deal of tradeoff. I would have prefered being all poweful, but this ising a bad idea. there will be a version you can use for pvp while still having room for say..... truth, or trespasser. Great job with reworking this idea bungie. While i believe the old way was better, at least you put consideration into this one and made sure to consider the pvp and pve seperation Edit: some have brought up that elemental burn is not always enough. One thing they could do is make additions to the exotic Verisions. Extra perks, better perks. Hell maybe even character buffs. Like maybe a fatebringer that gives melee speed. If you have a chance to see this edit, how would you feel if they added more to the adepts?
