I just gotta say, that with any change, bungo has been pretty good about making improvements where they can. Read from someone that the whole masterwork giving orbs thing actually takes the most memory on guns. This change could actively be for the better of weapon crafting.
It's also not like we can't generate orbs of power or charged with light from different sources. Elemental Wells could be very good now including other charge with light mods, like specific weapon rapidkills. Taking charge was a good but meh mod and I'm fairly certain hands on will be here next season, PLUS, with us being able to unlock all the artifact mods, builds should be flexible.
I think what we should be asking for is more energy slots in armor, up to say 12 as a good number. Let's more creative influence on builds and less stress.
I think they are let’s be honest not everyone master works weapons on the orb generation alone heck some might not even touch the charged with light mods
Besides that I won’t my make own conclusion until I actually try this change out
I know there’s a lot of posts saying it’s bad but truthfully we don’t know that it’s only from what info we’re given that these ‘claims’ are coming from
