My two cents, and rant away if you must, but if they can bring it back and it doesn’t affect overall gameplay balance, then bring it back, sure. Unfortunately, I don’t think that’s possible, and you are going to either take the fun out of PVE weapons on one hand. or end up with a horrible meta in PVP on the other. Gameplay balance is hard with the randomness of weapons mixed between PVE and PVP, so I say, if you guys truly want to compete on even ground with everyone else, bring back trials with a specific sandbox of weapons, just for trials only, like 99% of all other competitive games, and compete away.
