Make the Gunsmith relevant again
I was reading another forum post about Armsday Orders and the lack of interest in them - when was the last time you bought an armsday order? I have not in the past few months (gave up trying to beat a great Eireen roll I got very early last DLC).
To make the Gunsmith relevant again, I would suggest...
#1 - New weapons for Armsday packages. The other vendors got new gear for Rise of Iron, so why was the Gunsmith left out? While you are at it, add a new Legendary Axe (sword) as a package drop / armsday order.
#2 - Increase light level (to 400) for the level up packages. I can understand capping the factions at 390 since you can simply "buy" reputation. BUT Gunsmith reputation only comes from test weapons and you can hope for, at most, leveling up every other week (6 test weapons, I believe). This is a lot of work, so the reward should be better.
If you agree, please up vote. If you have other ideas, please share (in comments) and up vote too.

Yes he has no point now and it was pretty fun waiting for an uzume or an eriene each week too

Back when TTK was still relevant I made the same argument. I had gotten my Gunsmith up to rank 21 before I stopped playing. I just started again on the ps (was on Xbox) and I'm really looking forward to getting those exclusives back but I was really disappointed that they're were no new exclusives added. There is so much potential for the gunsmith

Gunsmith is moderately relevant

How about Petra, the speaker, Eva levante, eris, etc.

Eg you'd do the test weapon and then the next week it would be a green weapon with improved stats, the next week a blue weapon etc. All the way up to exotic with a different challenge every week. You could request a perk at each stage of the process. You could say choose between 3 and it would be RNG which one you'd get, and then at the end you'd have an exotic you'd fashioned yourself.

Edited by Droid: 10/29/2016 9:20:04 PMI feel that the hakke pulse rifles should function how every other pulse works. Hakke pulses make no sense. Why would I use a pulse that fires 4 bullets. That do the same damage as a pulse that shoots 3. If I miss a bullet from a hakke pulse I've put myself at a disadvantage. Was a poor attempt at creating a new mechanic. I think we need weapon skins for the foundry weapons. Hakke skin is ugly. The omolon weapons are just frames. Suros looks best. But I'd like to at least have a variety of colors. Just like exotics have ornaments, foundry weapons should have skins. We pay enough for the weapons... I'd drop some legendary marks for a skin. Also, storing them in your vault needs to be a thing. Or gunsmith holds them for you. Something. I'd like to see an axe as a weapon. No real reason not to have one. We have seen the way they function. Just like a sword. Young wolf's howl should've been the iron axe. I mean, I'm happy we received the sword. It's good for weakening high armored adds. But they had a chance to introduce a new weapon. And they dropped the ball. Dreadfang should've been an exotic sword.... Given it's design.... I'm ranting at this point. I agree 100% with you.

Gunsmith weapons are some of my favorite so I still look forward to picking up new rolls to try out. I'm always looking for a sleeper roll. That said, it could still benefit from greater variety from each Foundry.

I like the Gunsmith and would love to see his role expanded. 1. Better test weapons. The guns he has us test are garbage. 2. More exotic/legendary quests 3. Let me store Armsday orders in my vault 4. More ways to level up
-
His faction packages are very much relevant to someone who is in that 385-390 LL zone.
-
I like this. Id like to see more quests for 1 of legendaries from him too. More class specific exotics maybe as well. Come to think of it. Why no armor smith? For other class specific gear quests?
-
The gunsmith should also have sidearms and machine guns in his assortment
-
I think he is a great source of weapons but the inventory space requirements it takes to use him limits his viability severely
-
-
The gunsmith sucks right now. Average packages with average rolls. I have no reason to use the test weapons due to the fact it takes two weeks to rank up your gunsmith. I use him to by weapon parts basically
-
MAKE EVERYTHING RELEVANT AGAIN JUST GIVE ALL CONTENT the abilty to make us reach 400 light.

5 RepliesEdited by Nykthos: 10/27/2016 12:16:28 PMAll they have to do is give him weapons that are actually good Edit: increased light would be a good idea but the only problem is it's not "end game content" so bungie wont do that
-
Strange enough, he had a god roll eirene this week for the raid. I've got great rolls on the gunsmith weapons I want, but have been sitting on 3 for around 3 months waiting for very specific rolls. Gunsmith rank ups were easy and great way to get weapon infusion fodder while leveling up in ROI though.

Make the guns better.
