These topics are just going to keep popping up until cores are removed from infusion. Just do it already. They're not necessary. They don't add anything of value to the grindy process that is leveling other than to make it more grindy. [b]Making leveling more grindy doesn't make leveling meaningful.[/b] If removing them from infusion means that it's too easy to Masterwork, then find more uses for cores. Before anyone decides to drop the "Cores are easy to get. I have 834 of them." or some other stupid number, [b]I don't care how many you have or how easy they are to get.[/b] Cores add nothing of value to the infusion system. The community has been extremely vocal about this. So vocal that it's a wonder why it's still part of infusion. FINAL EDIT: I didn't make this topic in the hopes of getting a reply from Bungie. I made this topic to show Bungie that this is still an issue. An issue they can't just sweep under the rug. Sure, Banshee bounties are good and it would be nice to have more ways to obtain cores, but that doesn't mean they belong in infusion. It doesn't change the fact that I don't want to treat this game like it's a job. I play to have fun, and if I'm not having fun, then it just isn't worth my time. Spider bounties are fun when you first start out doing them but when you spend more time in loading screens and doing tasks you don't really enjoy doing, you begin to feel burned out. I just don't see why we need cores to be in infusion when we could just as easily remove them from infusion and the only thing that would change is more people would be doing things they actively enjoy rather than things they hate. The thing about complaining is that even if it seems pointless, the more people who complain the more likely it is your complaint will be heard, acknowledged and something will be done.
