[New Raid Item Suggestion] Elemental Sparks

So the idea dawned on me when I realized that there aren't any elemental primary weapons dropping in King's Fall. Seems like that has become a staple of Raid Loot: Elemental Primaries. It is really a cool concept. I got to thinking, though. Why limit that capability to only Raid Primaries? What if there was an item that only dropped from Raids that allowed you to "infuse" any one of your Legendary (non-Exotic) Primary weapons into an Elemental weapon? So that's my suggestion, Elemental Sparks. [b]Void Spark[/b]: Fusing this spark of light with a Legendary Primary Weapon will permanently grant that weapon Void damage. [b]Arc Spark[/b]: Fusing this spark of light with a Legendary Primary Weapon will permanently grant that weapon Arc damage. [b]Solar Spark[/b]: Fusing this spark of light with a Legendary Primary Weapon will permanently grant that weapon Solar damage. Already used a spark on your favorite primary gun but now want it to be a different element? Simply consume a different Spark on it to overwrite the old element to the new one.

  • Just like the previous Raids, and Skolas (to some degree), the Elemental Primaries did not drop until you played through on Hard Mode. That being said, I was also toying with this same idea earlier today. But I had a different "recipe". First of all, my method only allows this to be done to Legendary Weapons, and requires the use of a Legendary Weapon with the Burn Type you want, and an Etheric Light. Additionally, once done. It's done. Just like when you used Etheric Light to upgrade your pre-HoW gear. The "Infuse Burn" disappears. So you best be certain which burn you want to apply to your weapon. So for example let's say you have a Legendary Pulse Rifle and you want to infuse Void burn into it. Here's how the recipe would look. [spoiler] [b]Kinetic Legendary Pulse Rifle[/b] - Legendary Primary Weapon with Void Burn (Exotic weapons cannot be used) - Etheric Light - Legendary Marks - Glimmer [/spoiler] All this would do is add the Void Burn to the weapon. It would not increase the weapon damage if the weapon being fused was a higher base damage. That is a choice the player would have to make. Do I use this Void Legendary Primary Weapon for base damage or to infuse Void Burn into a different weapon? And again, once the choice was done on a weapon, the "Infuse Burn" option would disappear. And this "Infuse Burn" option is NOT available for Exotics. Not to [i][u]give[/u][/i] nor [i][u]take[/u][/i] the burn from them. Additionally this could potentially breathe new or restored life into PoE beyond "coin farming" as it requires Etheric Light as part of the recipe.
