Are you kidding me? This isn't a modifier, it is 100% a restriction. It's bad enough that we are essentially always forced to use primaries due to the "power weapon" slot. This serves as nothing more than inhibiting the player rather than challenging them, that's the difference. It does nothing. Literally nothing beneficial. It is only designed for artificial difficulty in not allowing the player to adapt to fights or change to what is now required. Just the idea that I have to start an activity, maybe a raid, even a crucible match stuck to one playstyle is horrendous. I was hoping for actual challenges, a lot like how the prison of elders actually enticed loadout changes and diversity with the changing shield cabal guy. The guy who burned the floor? What do we get instead? Loadout lock.....disappointing Just the idea of limiting a loadout to be inflexible means players are already limited in choice. It makes players rule out most of their arsenal in favor for weapons that provide the best dps and utilities in the game. That's not challenge, that's called the birth of more metas, except in pve this time Edit: https://youtu.be/FulKz9pnvfU 3:45 Here's the source
