I know it is more work but it's an effort to add value to the game regardless. Enhancement cores are fine, and so is the idea of making meaningful choices. However the bottleneck is harsh, and forcing people to play certain things that aren't ready to get people together for it is not a good idea. Introduce a new avenue for light leveling through glimmer. Purely a glimmer cost. At the very least excluding cores and equally hard to get materials/items. So legendary shards and planetary materials would be acceptable. Now assuming it is just glimmer, you can reintroduce RNG leveling. Only with glimmer leveling and since glimmer is abundant you can keep leveling this way. It allows players a means of doing it outside of activities, while also preparing them for them, but remains less efficient than running certain activities as you want. Though there's also the path of just guaranteed costs and gains you can take as well. Maybe both based on whether you have max glimmer or not. Having enhancement cores bring low rarity gear up would add to the meaningful choices the team wants the game to have also. Further than that, allowing mods and perks to be collected is another. Doing these things adds to the meaningful choices, and the overall progression at the same time. Making cores the center of attention for these things, and fixing the collections so players can use it even more so. Much more than forcing meaning into something by slowing down progression.

Hey guys, while you're at it nerfing those PvP OP weapons, just remove those UP enhancement cores from infusion too. They have no place in that system.

Do you just cringe when they send you out with stuff like this? You had to know it wouldn’t go over well.

It has been an awful long discussion,thought brexit was dragging on,just do it!

Well congratulations, you deflected the criticism from cores to luna lol.

This one sided “discussion” has been going on since September 2018, the issue has only gotten worse. This is a game as a service, we are the customer, you have drastically changed a fundamental part of the product for the worse, what kind of service is that? I’d say a bad one. In my mind this is the same as if I bought a smart TV where use of the internet was free, then, some months later a patch was rolled out and all of a sudden I had to pay for that internet service.

I believe it should be like this: Once a piece of gear ( Armor/Weapon) is upgraded to a masterwork you should be able to infuse higher light level gear into the masterworked piece of gear. Wich would play out like that: You like a piece of gear? Masterwork it! In this masterwork you now can infuse gear into it without any enhancement core. Makes your decision meaningful.

Bungie please read a few book on motivational decision making because if you think I will be motivated to grind for another pinnacle weapon in Destiny 2 or any future Destiny franchise you would be completely wrong. You guys might be good game designers but you suck at what motivates a player to continue playing this game. I used to think Activision was Bungie's problem - I was wrong, Bungie is Bungie's problem. What ever fool or group of fools made this decision please fire them, Sears needs these people's help. This was a dumbass decision made by an idiot or idiots. Good luck with future version of this game, you're going to need it. I not so sure my money will be invested in future Destiny Games. Oh I forgot, I hope and pray that more players feel this way because you guys obviously don't get it.

How can expect them to change anything they can’t even get a bounty right with no vex being on the tangled shore. It’s funny when a bug that helps the players is detected it gets fixed right away but when one is known about the affects completing a quest it “cant” get fixed right away , how about remove vex from the bounty and put cabal , or is that to hard?

Love you x3000

Make spider bounties better, because right now literally nobody does them. The ones that cost 3 ghost fragments should reward 2 enhancement cores, and the ones that cost 4 fragments should give 3 cores. Currently they all give 1 which is not enough, and the more expensive ones take longer despite giving the same amount.

Like some people said, with the inclusion of these Bounties you should check the ones already available too, the Spider ones will be less meaningful and probably harder for the same reward. Enhancement core economy is looking fine for me right now with the plans but Mod components and/or weapon parts isn't, I spent practically all my savings of weapon parts for a good Erentil which I didn't get yet and all the rest on mod components to buy the ones of Black Armory, we really need more ways to get more mod components at least to my point of view. Also What happens with the Tangled Shore material? Will it ever be useful? And what about legendary shards?
