This is a great idea. [quote] - Make Masterworking a weapon/armor a result of using the gear. XP gains add to armor progress, Kills add to Weapon progress. - Keep Enhancement Cores as part of infusion, but either lower the cost to 1 core per infusion, of raise the amount that players are able to get per bounty.[/quote] I would also add that the system for masterworking using cores and mats should still be an [i]option [/i] for those with the resources, or if you want to skip a Tier using cores instead of grinding out that particular objective. I wouldn't even mind if each Tier of a weapon required a different kind of kill. For example: - Get X precision kills - Defeat X Cabal - Defeat X enemies in Strikes (Nightfalls count more toward this progress) Although requiring XP would be simpler, I wouldn't mind if leveling armor required wearing it for certain activities. For example: - Complete X public events wearing this armor piece - Complete X Strikes " - Complete X Adventures (Heroic Adventures count more toward this progress) - Complete X Daily Challenges - Complete X Weekly Challenges For cores, I would be fine with 1 core per infusion, 2 cores when infusing and an exotic is involved.
