Suggestion for seasonal armor - creating incentives for guardians to use seasonal armors

Hi Bungie, Just some random thoughts on seasonal armor for your consideration. —————— Seasonal Armor System Update 1. Additional seasonal effects on existing modes Like the ghost seasonal modes, add seasonal temporary effects on existing combat style amour modes. For example, “Protective Light” will make guardian invisible for 2 seconds when active. This effect can relate back to the theme of the current season and can be tuned individually. It will be active on current season armor pieces only. 1.1 seasonal armor set bonus Like the old Gambit armor system, we could have set bonus if guardians wear 2 and/or 3 pieces of current seasonal armor pieces. The effect could relate back to the theme of current season as well and will be gone once the seasons is over. For example, for current seasonal armor bonus could be build-in “Dragonfly Spec” where all explosions guardian created will be twice the size. 2. Trade-in Guardians probably already obtained many armor pieces in previous seasons with high status rolls and they are most likely reluctant to spend materials on new seasonal armor pieces given most of them will be low status rolls. It will be a long journey to get high status roll current seasonal armor at the beginning of a season. How about we trade-in our old armor pieces like we trade-in our old cellphones? Add a new menu at Banshee-44 and guardians will get a high status roll (no less than the old piece) current seasonal armor if we trade-in our old ones. If we trade in mastered ones we should be able to get enhancement core/prism back at least. 3. Status tweaking Only active on current season armor. Remember “glass needle” from D1 where Nine sells them for guardians to re-roll status attribute on an exotic armor? Now we shall use them to tweak the status on a seasonal armor piece. I think the technical part would be difficult but how about the old Nine card for nightfall? Guardian would have to tune it in the inventory - “one status up and the other status must be down” and then slot it on seasonal armor piece. Or add an additional tuning slot on all current season armor piece. For the sake of balance maybe cap the attribute tweaking points at 5 on each piece. —————— Really happy that sunsetting is gone, I’m just thinking of something to incentivize guardians to obtain new armor and feel excited about it. Cheers TWO_TOW
