[quote]Cores are only an issue for people who REFUSE to adapt to an in game economy and make wise decisions. There are currently so many ways to earn cores without actually grinding for them, and another huge source is being introduced. If the gunsmith works like every other vendor, that 5 guaranteed cores per day, per character, another 2 per week per character. In addition, the mod component reward will relieve the stress of gunsmith mats turning into mod components, which will allow you to turn them into gun for yet more cores from dismantles. At this point, the community is just as stubborn for shouting and whining “remove cores waaaahhhhh” without even trying the new system, as Bungie is for not removing them from infusion.[/quote] I wanna play the D2 you’re playing, because it’s clearly not the same one. How many cores have you pulled from turning in Gunsmith Materials? Or better yet, when was the last time you used gunsmith materials for anything besides infusion or mods? If they’re making the core sources so common and varied as you say, why not just remove the mechanic to begin with? It’s clearly not accomplishing the goal of making infusion a “wise decision” as you have dubbed it, so get rid of it outright and create a better system, no? Also the system has been in place [i][b]since Forsaken[/b] [/i]how long do you need to “try it out” before you see that it’s defunct? A few more months? D3 launch? We’ll be up to D20—busy rolling around in-game dice for infusion mats before we get rid of these cores by the looks of it.
