question: why even bother with kinetic primaries when we have a whole other slot full of elemental primaries? why not just run elementals the whole time? kinetics seems like a wasted slot now that we will end up never using once our elemental slot is stocked with nice guns. might as well just reduce it to two slots, elemental and power. less buttons to press.

    Because the weapons are different in each slot. I prefer the kinetic pulse, Nightshade. Lots of people like the Void Nergal. They're similar, but different when it comes to stability, range, and perks. That's for PvP. For PvE, it matters because for enemies without shields...use kinetic! Don't waste your "special" elemental primary ammo on enemies with no shields. Those elemental primary weapons work wonders on shielded enemies! It makes for more variation in your choices, instead of just having 1 primary that does all.

  • Have you played the beta? I didnt pre-order so i havent. Wondering how elemental ammo drops are. If they reduced elemental drops and reduced damage to shields with kinetic. Maybe they are more for shielded enemies?

  • That's exactly what they did. Amazing how you realize this without playing the Beta, yet others are still trying to use their elemental weapons for every enemy.

  • Just a logical conclusion. Its how i would have done that weapon system. The power weapons i would have split between maybe light and heavy power though. I feel in pve the power weapons might be lacking. However I understand why they did it for pvp.
