Make it so that the Path of Burning Steps synergizes with Solar more

I love the Path of Burning Steps. I also think that the exotic could use just a little bit more oomph, and I believe that the best way to give it that little bit of oomph is to give it an interaction with the Solar 3.0 verbs, namely Scorch. My idea is to buff the boots to make it so 3x or 4x stacks of Firewalker grant Solar weapons the ability to Scorch targets, such as 1/20th of the Impact stat of the weapon is the amount of Scorch stacks applied, and maybe 1/10th the Impact stat at 4x. Additionally, this also plays into the name of the Exotic by allowing your weapons to 'burn' your targets. For example: A Trustee (46 Impact) would apply 2 stacks of Scorch per round at 3x Firewaler/4 stacks at x4. a Zaouli's Bane would apply 4 stacks a round/8 stacks a round. Vex Mythoclast would apply 1 stack a round/3 stacks a round (dunno how the LFR mode would work as the impact of that is not displayed). I think that a change like this would be fairly balanced, it would not be the case that Burning Path Titans would suddenly be creating Ignitions off of just weapon damage; however, it would be the case that Burning Path Titans would be able to proc certain parts of the Solar kit (such as Sol Invictus, Ember of Searing, etc.) slightly more reliably with weapon damage. I know that Incandescent scratches this itch; however, Solar exotics (except for Jötunn w/ the catalyst) do not Scorch targets. So, a change like this would allow Exotic and Legendary Solar weapons to synergize with Solar 3.0 while also playing into the name of the exotic more. That is all. Thank you for reading.
