So Bungie just casually removed buildcrafting from the game. No more ability spamming either, the no fun police strikes again. These new sad excuses of a gear mods are laughably bad. We are drifting so far away from the space wizard power fantasy you might as well brand this as worse Call of duty which has servers that won't work.
You also stated in the patch notes that "mods are generally cheaper" which is only half of the truth because all the bad ones are, but the even remotely good ones are more expensive now or just as pricy as before which even further negates all possible build crafting. Not to mention how the new mods are expensive and you must have one of them on each piece in order you to notice any difference. Then the mods don't have bonus stats or effects anymore either i.e. the +20 mobility or strength boost. Oh and gear charges suck.
The way you treat players by constantly underestimate and berate them with these idiotic design choices is not doing any good to anyone. What's your endgame for this game? Is the goal to make it as boring and bland as possible?
If you think you know what people like, just look at tomorrows player retention numbers.

1 ReplyBuilds aren't destroyed. In fact it literally has not changed the core concept of being charged with light at all. Wells are no longer a thing because they were replaced by the ionic trace equivalent across all classes. Those can be buffed for your character by the new fragments, if anything wells have been buffed, but how many you can get is debuffed. I have literally not started the second mission and i was able to easily understand the mod system and build a grenade spam build from scratch in less than a minute. Someone else said something to the effect of " you need YouTube to tell you how to build" and thats right on point for every single one of you guys hating on build crafting right now.
