I have seen a few posts so far about the cores being this massive issue that is ruining the game, but this is a looter shooter . . . I am just gonna post my reply from another thread stating enhancement cores should be removed "For some context, I just came back to the game about a week ago after quitting a year and a half ago (according to the clan I was in with a few friends, I stopped playing on Dec. 17, 2017) and I am having no issues with cores for a few different reasons. 1) I love trying out new weapons and I use the Light Level as an excuse to try all sorts of different armor and weapons as I creep towards cap (which means I very rarely use cores) 2) I spend a few cores to masterwork a great weapon I find so I can infuse later 3) If I wanna go run a nightfall or do a raid I will pull some gear that I have saved that was good while leveling and infuse to the light level 4) I run all dailies and weeklies I can whenever I get on, which includes pursuits that give cores, but I only play 3-4 days a week because I work 12 hours a day 5) Because I do not play every day I find it easier to infuse stuff when I want since I always have dailies and weeklies to finish that just give me more As a couple people already mentioned, this is a RPG with mmo elements, so it is obvious to the average person that there will be grinding involved to level up. All I have seen in these posts is people whining for a reason they created. When leveling up in a gear based rpg you are not supposed to have the strongest gear until you reach endgame anyways. To all these complaining kids, stop whining and start grinding, or get out." I am curious if anyone out there can change my mind. :)
