I can't say this enough, bring back elemental primaries.
Whatever Luke Smith was smoking, he made a stupid decision to not allow us to use elemental primaries.
Do you want us to get aggrivate and have to use two or three clips to take down one wizard. Sorry but I'd rather use a void primary that would take less time to take it down then using a kinetic damage weapon.
"Oh we want people to have more options for their load out"
Well sometimes, when your dealing with ten void enemies in the special Dark Blade strike or the special Shield Brother strike you really would rather have a void primary or a solar primary.
It's kinda dump how they took this approach now. They definetly wanted the gameplay to last longer that's for sure! I hope someone else in charge of Destiny 2 focuses on bringing back elemental primaries again cause it's tedious to have to use 3 clips to take down a knight with a void shield or a wizard with a yellow health bat and solar that takes ages with kinetic
Just have Luke Smith focus on raids. Don't let him ruin the elemental primaries and let them come back please!

You seem to have forgotten about this, so I'll remind you. [spoiler]You still have Special and Heavy weapons.[/spoiler]

The reason they gave initially was cause people were using the same stuff over and over again and they wanted to increase variety in weapon usage. But really if they wanted to do that the simplest answer would have been to create a consumable that can be used on an weapon just once and if you needed to gain the same weapon again if you wanted the same weapon with a different element. Could easily be added as a general raid or hard raid drop which would make more people wanting to actually do the hard raid. The moment I heard the hard raid weapons were just the normal ones with higher light levels I never touched the hard mode. I don't play things like Trials of Osiris or Iron Banner cause I suck at PVP and I am willing to admit that. But with a consumable added either as a raid drop or a randomised element given by Xur for a considerable amount of coins would keep the variety and let people have their elements.

1 ReplyMeh, A year 2 nechrochasm and Vex Mythoclast would go a long way. I'm kinda surprised they don't have an epic hard raid void primary for King's Fall. It seemed like such a logical progression. This would make the old raids relevant again.
-
I say make the primary elemental situation the same as secondaries and heavy. ALL rare, legendary, and exotics should have an elemental damage effect. The whole diversity argument could be thrown out the window. Is there any other reason besides "diversity" as to why elemental primaries are "bad" for destiny?
-
Honestly they should have an item that allows to infuse a damage type into the weps u want. I wouldn't mind the grid for that item too

4 RepliesNo, they were a crutch, no one ever used anything else except for those primaries, which is not right

Well I used to like using Oversoul Edict, Arc LDR and Gjallarhorn OR Atheons Epilogue Solar LDR Thunderlord Or Abbyss Defiant Relevant LDR Thunderlord, or Truth

I love the fact elemental primaries aren't around anymore

It's not needed anymore. It was true with the old Nightfall when everything had a shield. Remember weak shanks becoming a big pain in the ass with solar shields??? Nowadays, most enemies don't have shields except for ultras and majors. Usually you're either sniping them or taking them down faster with s sword anyways.
-
Yeah I miss melting enemies in nightfall with my vex mythoclast with solar burn active
-
The good old days using the vision of confluence or atheon's epilogue during nightfalls
-
Yep I've posted this many times and I can simply say now they wanted it to be harder to do things to take longer any other reasoning is excuses.

4 RepliesDon't listen to these fools Bungie, removing elemental primaries was the smartest adjustment you have made.

6 RepliesEdited by Steezus12: 12/29/2015 4:44:49 PMWhat was the reason behind it again? Because primaries having elements made us want to use one gun over another? That's what I think it was, and if so... *Face Palms and Sighs aggressively* I didn't use the VoC and Fatebringer because they were solar and arc, I used them because they were the BEST weapons in terms of stats and perks. Especially before field scout nerf, and if you compare the King's Fall scout to the VoC, the VoC is ages above, and it's an even worse comparison between fate bringer and KF hand cannon. TL;DR: If you're going to take away elements on primaries, at least make the weapons stats and perks so great that they overcome this fact. Y2 weapons feel vastly inferior to Y1 weapons. [spoiler]I typed all of this while I waited for my KF hand cannon to reload[/spoiler]

Are you saying you want Destiny2 to have elemental primaries , or you want them in this current version ? Apart from the odd buff/nerf here or there , nothing major is gonna be changed between now and next September , all old stuff , i.e raids , guns , nightfall XP buffs and such are gone for good , or obsolete(aside from material farming). As for Destiny2 , who knows , but if it doesn't have dedicated servers it could all be for nowt .

Im with you, I miss the elemental primaries.
-
Why not give the option to make any primary elemental? Elemental infusion items would be amazing and they could have them drop from breaking down VoG and CE primaries. Would definitely give me more reasons to revisit older content with new players.
-
Isn't this game easy enough?
-
Ever heard of specials and heavys? They have elemental burns on them. You can use them to take down shields real easy.

1 ReplyArtifacts should have elements applied to them so primaries do whatever burn your artifact is

3 RepliesI'm not particularly good at PVP but aren't there elemental primaries available in Trials of Osiris.
