These mods only further amplify an issue introduced with holders tbh. Nobody uses them because there is no room on armor to support the sheer energy cost and their inferiority over scav mods.
It’s going to be the same here, nobody wants to remove finders since they are just too superior. If the mod worked for all guns then maybe but they will only work for specific elements which is even worse since MAX 2 guns will make orbs.
Although the artefact change is good, it’s another 1 step forward and 2 steps back with the orb nerf…

It's just tone deaf and then some. Precious materials? Weapon Masterworks take cores, shards and glimmer, were not talking about armour here. It's already bad enough that any end game content completely removes your ability to use mods in your arms, now we've got to give up a finder mod for orbs? That's charged with light builds pretty much tanked. You've already killed warmind cells so now it's just wells, until you kill those too I guess.
